Not bad for your first competition, Ellen Bittner!!!

Ellen is a 63-year-old woman who was the average American: lazy, unhealthy, unhappy. She became part of a study about how lifestyle affect life expectancy, and she was SHOCKED to learn she was among the highest at risk for a slew of health problems like heart attacks and strokes. More importantly though, she was inspired to change.

And we hope she inspires you too!

Turns out, Bittner was REALLY GOOD at powerlifting, after her personal trainer came back from a competition raving about it, and asked her if she wanted to try it out. So they trained, and now she's taken home the gold in her first competition ever!

Check out her amazeballs story (above)! Go Ellen, goooooo!

We hope it was worth it, LeBron — and it totally looks like you think so.

Who needs friends in Ohio anyway? Ha!

LeBron finally got his championship ring, and just like his announcement to abandon his home team, he's gloating about it publicly (above). All he had to do was completely let down everyone who ever gave him a chance.

In the picture, you can see all the ring's stats in full view:

That's RIGHT.

Even Russia recognizes the awesome power of Michael Phelps and the way he strokes! Or, um, the way he takes strokes. In the water.

Okay. Winning a million gold medals is one thing.

Getting to meet one of your idols is another.

Prince Harry kept it in his pants long enough to make a public appearance at the Paralympics! Ha!

He was spotted hanging out with several Paralympians, including Jessica-Jane Applegate.

Applegate won the gold medal in swimming in the controversial intellectually disabled classification.

The classification has been controversial since Spain had a gold medal winning team at Sydney in 2000 where none of the players had any intellectual impairment and one was even a professional basketball player!

That's awful!

Applegate actually has Asperger's syndrome, which is on the autism spectrum, so she was legit!

Losers (like Spain's cheater team) get embarrassed and are awful, winners get to meet Prince Harry!

Way to go, Paralympians!
