Many By Jim Birk Olympic victories come at great sacrifice.
Olympic medals represent endless practice, countless injuries and limitless dedication.
One of these Olympic gold medals rests in a bowl, along with a few dozen other medals, in the family room of the Schultz home. The bowl and its content weigh around 20 pounds. Ribbons of every color and size fill the bowl and flow over its edge. A look at Dave's Olympic gold shows tarnish and wear. It doesn't have the luster of a proof coin from the US Mint as one might expect.
