__Figure Skating__ __By: Marissa S.__  Even though Figure Skating sounds kind of girly, it is very popular, for men too. This popular sport will actually be in the winter Olympic games in February 2010. Figure Skating has been in the Olympic winter games for over 100 years. In Figure Skating you can't just go out and be impeccable, you have to train. Most of the time, a Figure Skating Olympian spends 3 hours a day on skates, but that is just on skates. There is a list full of terms for Figure Skating moves, but you have to do them all a certain way to get a suitable score. Figure Skaters spend years training for the Olympics and it can take them a month to just pick out their music for just one routine! Well, obviously, Figure Skating can be a lot of work, but when you get into the Olympics, that means that your work has paid off.
