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.
Plus news of the canoeing, yachting, boxing and badminton competitions, and a roundup of the day's other events.

Supporters of the death penalty in America used to claim it was a deterrent to violent crime.
Now, more and more, they support it simply as a form of revenge. John Ware reports on how, in pursuit of retribution, America is putting to death juveniles, the mentally retarded, the insane, and even the innocent.
Producer Dai Richards Editor Glenwyn Benson
Desmond Lynam presents highlights of the day's action. Britain's big hopes were Colin Jackson and Tonyjarrett in the 11 Om hurdles, Richard Nerurkar was looking to improve on his world championship fifth place in the men's 10,000m final, and Roger Black had the chance to book his place in the 400m final. In hockey, Britain's men played Australia in their last group match. Plus quarter-final boxing action, heavyweight weightlifting, badminton semi-finals and a roundup of all the other medallists.

1873: Arillo, Texas. Taunted by the town sheriff, Pardon
Chato - an Apache half-breed - shoots the man in self-defence and rides out of town. A vicious posse decides to follow him, seeking revenge and a revival oftheoldhatredfelt towards the Indians. Gradually, Chato draws them into his own territory, and the manhunt takes a horrifying turn as the 13 men find that they are no match for Chato's cunning and strength.
In this taut western, Bronson gives one of his finest performances as the man driven to murder by racial hatred.
