I’ve always loved watching the Olympic Games, but I have to admit that this year I’ve enjoyed it even more thanks to the amazing women competing! Seeing our female athletes take the stage and show the world what they can do has left no doubt in anyone’s mind…our women have moves like no other!
One of those medals came from two of the FAB IV divers, brand ambassadors for Gillette Venus and my personal favourite athletes of the games. I love watching them compete but even more than that, I love their energy and joie de vie both in and out of the pool!
Now Benfeito and Filion are approaching their individual events in just one more day and I can’t wait to cheer them on. But whether they win or lose, there’s no doubt in my mind that all four women will continue to wow on the world stage and inspire off of it with their positivity and drive to succeed. Make sure to tune in to see how they do as they show off moves like no other in the pool!
To celebrate the upcoming individual dives and the success of our Canadian women, Venus has put together a very special giveaway! One lucky Mommy Kat and Kids reader is going to win a prize pack containing the new Venus Swirl Razor and refill cartridges, a $50 value! To enter to win, just leave a blog comment about your favourite female Olympian this year.
While I’m busy cheering on my own favourites, I’ll also be marvelling at the success of our other amazing athletes, from Brianne Thiesen-Eaton’s bronze-medal comeback in heptathlon to the dominance in women’s swimming from 16-year-old Penny Oleksiak. Our women have shone and made a statement this year, and I’m so excited to see each and every one of them representing Canada to the world!

I must say a up and comer surprised and made us all proud. Penny Oleksiak at such a young age has swooped in and showed us how it is done! You make us proud Penny! I also love watching Kia Nurse play Basketball and really enjoyed watching Jennifer Abel, she did so well and just lost podium by such a minute amout. They all impress me with their hardwork and dedication and I am proud they are Canadian!
It is hard to pick just one because they all did so well and tried so hard. Penny Oleksiak really stood out because of all the medals she earned and the record she broke at such a young age. She seemed very humble and down to earth. I think she is such a wonderful example to all girls as to what they can do if they work and put their heart into what they are doing.
you make it hard to answer… Penny and Rosie are two, oh and Jen Kish!!! Three.
The only one i’ve watched is Penny Oleksiak.
My favourite female Olympian is Penny Oleksiak. So inspiring!
My Favorite this year is Penny Oleksiak.. What an inspiration!
Jen Kish – what a great performance
Sorry. I’m not sure of names . I can barely remember my own some days.
Penny has been amazing to watch. But many of our Canadian women have! They have really rocked the Olympics this year!!
Would have to pick Penny Oleksiak, she did amazing! Proud of all of our athletes!
