As a student studying in Tokyo, Phoebe Wiener watched National Stadium being built for the Olympics. Two years later she found herself back, helping cover the Games for TODAY.
But most of all, it is the people who will come to the forefront of my mind when I look back on this journey. I am so lucky to work with such diligent and kind-hearted people at NBC News.
Apart from the regular team at the TODAY and NBC News, I’ve had the chance to meet and work with our wonderful team of Tokyo-based Japanese"runners," production assistants who help with anything and everything the broadcast team needs. Although it has been bittersweet seeing empty stadium seats and empty streets because of COVID, the magic of Tokyo is still here. I feel it when I’m on the train commuting to our TODAY set and a Japanese elementary school student says to me, “Go Team USA!”I feel it when a coffee shop barista tells me how much happiness the Olympics are bringing her after a difficult year.
