Resting

They say that rest is as valuable for an elite athlete as training.

Today, at the Alternative Olympic Games, we watched the training for the giant slalom event - totally airborne. Not once did this dragonfly's feet touch the ground - he swooped and zoomed, and zoomed and swooped some more.

Totally pooped, he had to rest for a second or two before starting to train again.

We think he'll win gold.

MONOMONDAY - don't forget. It doesn't matter what part of the world you are in - so long as it's Monday where you are you can take a mono image, tag it MonoMonday, and I'll add you to the every lengthening list.

This challenge is going to continue through March, thanks to Hobbs, who will be hosting it from week starting Monday 3rd March
