MICHAEL PHELPS GETS SEVENTH!
1/100th of a second ahead of Croatia's Milorad Cavic.
If there's a single moment that will be remembered from the Beijing Olympics, that will be it. We've been re-watching it at least a half-dozen times in slow-mo the past few minutes, and... just amazing, man!
He's now tied Mark Spitz's record of most gold medals during a single Olympiad. And tomorrow, Phelps might have one more for his collection.

Michael Phelps's secret? 12,000 calorie a day diet

The New York Post reports on the special diet that has Michael Phelps breaking swimming records like nobody's business at the Olympics. The guy is on a staggering twelve thousand calories a day eating regimen. A typical person usually takes in around 6000 calories every day. Phelps has been nearing that amount with each meal! Mostly lots of carbohydrate-rich fare like pasta.
The boy better figure in some Wheaties too if he wants to have his picture on the front of their cereal box :-P
Scratch that: Michael Phelps now has FIVE gold medals (and 11 overall!)
If he goes on winning gold in the rest of his events, Phelps will not only make his own record all the more unreachable but he'll break Mark Spitz's record of having earned seven gold medals in a single Olympiad.
Do it, dude!

MOST GOLD EVER: Phelps wins 200 meter butterfly for 4th medal at Beijing Games!

Phelps is now the most-winning Olympic athlete in history: ten gold medals so far in his career, with four in Beijing alone. And he's got a chance to bring home four more.
Go Michael! :-)
