What’s your favorite Olympic event? Are you really revved up over running? Do you swoon for swimming? At Livescribe, we can never come to any kind of agreement over which event is the best. Everybody starts arguing that they don’t televise enough of this, or we can’t wait for that. So, why should we have to decide? In today’s pencast, we’re cramming in every sport we can think of — or, at least, five of them. Meet the Modern Pentathlon!

Sadly, the PENtathlon isn’t about the fastest writer or the longest essay, but is about five different events which go together in a grand celebration of athletic ability. Thanks to the Livescribe UK team for today’s instructional and inspirational entry. Keep on reaching for the gold, everyone, and we’ll see you again with more Olympic education!
