Some of the greatest names in long-distance running have won the Olympic 10,000m.
Finland's Paavo Nurmi won in 1920 and was rewarded for his pains by being vomited on by the silver medallist. He went on to win another eight golds at a whole range of distances. The legendary Czech Emil Zatopek won back-to-back golds in 1948 and 1952, as did another
Finnish hero, Lasse Viren , in 1972 and 1976 - setting a world record with his first win.
1976 was also the year that
Olmeus Charles of Haiti set the slowest time ever recorded in an Olympic 1 0,000m race. The entire race schedule had to be held up as he finished the last six laps of his heat alone, a full 14 minutes behind the winner.
Britain is represented this year by the considerably quicker Eamonn Martin and Richard Nerurkar. The women's 10km walk is making its Olympic debut in Barcelona, with the world champion Alina Ivanona
(Unified Team) favourite to win the event's first gold medal. And later on, Britain's Sally Gunnell runs for a place in tomorrow's final of the women's 400m hurdles.
