Paul Hamm out of retirement--2012

[gym law mom]

Just saw on USAG site that Paul Hamm has left his day job and is back in training with the goal of making the 2012 Olympic team. He said his 1st meet is probably going to be in Jan. 2011. May move to train at the USOTC in Colorado or stay at his own gym in WI.

Wow, that's really cool, it seems like there are many gymnasts coming out of retirement to try for 2012 (Nastia & Shawn for example)

I saw that, too. Very exciting. I hope it all works out for him! He is an amazing gymnast.

Yay!

Did Morgan retire as well?

Yes, he also retired after trying to make the 2008 Olympic team and had to pull out due to injury. He's still active in the sport(shows up at gym camps etc), but has not said anything about trying to come back for 2012.

In one of the articles, I know Paul said Morgan is married and doing other things now and in all reality, will not be going for London.
