The incredible effort and sacrifice Olympic athletes make in pursuit of excellence often goes unnoticed. Despite being one of the most documented events in the world, it’s surprising that we don’t see more of the hardships these athletes face in their quest to make history and earn recognition for their hard work.
This project, based on the Wikipedia page for the Olympic Games, aims to shed light on the less glamorous side of the Olympics. It explores the internal conflict all elite athletes experience and the consequences athletes face when pushing themselves to their mental and physical limits.
