22. FosterClub | Famous Foster Youth - Billy Mills Many consider it the most sensational race ever run in olympic history. Since his Dad’s passing, Billy had been running as therapy for his pain and http://www.fosterclub.com/funstuff/fam_fosterKids/billyMills.cfm

Billy Mills: Gold Medallist, Successful Businessman, Author, and a Foster Youth Suddenly on the last stretch of the final lap, as if he had planned the race just as it was unfolding, Billy Mills stepped up his smooth pace, began to overtake the pack, recovered from a near stumble, closed in on the two leaders, then at the last possible minute, streaked pass them. Unbelievably Mills took the tape! America had won gold in one of the biggest upsets in Olympic History. Billy Mills crossed the finish line with a record setting time of 28 minutes 24.01 seconds. That day in Tokyo, with Olympic Gold around his neck, Billy Mills became a national hero. In 92 years of Olympic History, no American had ever won the 10,000 meter run. But his spectacular win did not give a hint of the obstacles Mills had overcome in his life. Billy looked at running in a new light. He began to see that he had talent as a runner and with hard work, his achievements in track could become his ticket to acceptance. By his senior year, he earned a track scholarship to the University of Kansas. At the University, he built a successful athletic career excelling at track and even won some fame as a runner.

Ancient Olympic History Quick Facts Ancient Olympic Sports Related Links Olympia: Aerial view of site and surroundings The Olympic Games in Antiquity reflected ancient Greek culture. Although they are of another era, they are an inspiration for the establishment of the modern Olympic Games, a fertile ground for discussion and comparison. The Games took place in Olympia in honor of Zeus. Their origin is shrouded in legend and their foundation is thought to have been 776 BC. The Olympics were the most glorious religious and athletic event of the ancient Greek world. Renowned and prestigious, they attracted a huge number of athletes and spectators. All free Greek citizens had the right to participate (excluding women). Victory at the Games was the highest honor for an athlete. Victors enjoyed special honors from their city; and often myths were created of their exploits. During the Games, a sacred truce was agreed: all interstate hostilities were suspended. The Games long history shows no shortage of stories of violated rules, broken truces, bribed athletes, political exploitation and hostile criticism. Gradually, the link between religion and the athletic ideal waned and the Games became a professional athletic spectacle. In 393 BC the Olympic Games were abolished permanently.

Modern Olympic History 19th-Century Revival Olympics by Year Famous Olympians Related Links Swimmer Aaron Piersol (US) with His Gold Medal The modern Olympic Games belong to our era. The way they are organized, their ceremonies and symbolism reflect modern reality, not ancient tradition. The Games are not only about the athletes. The Games are not just a question of records and numbers. Hidden behind the statistics, the medals, the records are important ideas, experiences, questions about participation and exclusion, rivalry and competition, victory and defeat, commitment and exertion, the athletic ideal and commercialization. The Games concern everyone participating in them, in whatever way. They have to do with individuals and social groups, cities and countries. They speak of symbols, heroes and myths. The 19th-Century Olympic Movement Baron Pierre de Coubertin, the man who inspired the revival of the Olympic Games Baron Pierre de Coubertin, a Frenchman, is justly given credit for establishing the modern Olympics, but it was England that revived the idea, and it was in England that Coubertin was introduced to it. As early as 1612, Robert Dover established an English version of the Olympic Games in the Cotswold Hills in Gloucestershire. Events included card games, chess, and dancing, as well as running, jumping, the hammer throw, pitching the bar, wrestling, and horse racing.

Sponsored by The Decathlon in Olympic History Table of Contents: The Jim Thorpe Story The Ancient Pentathlon The Middle Ages Early Olympic History ... The Age of Boycotts The Jim Thorpe Story When King Gustav V of Sweden presented awards at the 1912 Olympic Games of Stockholm, he proclaimed to the decathlon winner, an American Indian named Jim Thorpe, as the world's top athlete. "You sir, are the world's greatest athlete." Incidentally, Jim is purported to have replied, "Thanks, King" to the Swedish monarch, a story, true or not, which itself has become part of the Thorpe saga. Ever since, the Olympic decathlon champion or world record holder has been dubbed "the World's Greatest Athlete." And rightly so, since the decathlon is the only objective test of all around athletic ability. Decathletes must contest ten separate events and have those performances tallied on a standard scoring table. The decathlon measures basic sporting ability like jumping, sprinting and throwing. Within the backdrop and rules of track and field, decathlon champions must exhibit, the 4 S's: speed, spring, strength and stamina. Since 1912 great decathlon champions like Bob Mathias, Rafer Johnson, Bruce Jenner and Daley Thompson and others have become household names. But they all owe much to the legend of Thorpe.

Maps of World Highlights of Individual Olympic Games ATHENS 1896 The people of Athens greeted the Games with great enthusiasm. There is no event that the Greek hosts wanted to win more than the marathon race, because of its historical significance. Spiridon Louis, a Greek shepherd set off from the city of Marathon (marathon was run from Marathon to Athens over the course covered by Greek hero Pheidippides in 490 B.C. after the battle with the Persians) and took the lead four kilometres from the finish line and, to the great joy of the 100,000 spectators, won the race by more than seven minutes. James Connolly (USA-athletics) won the triple jump on 6 April 1896, and thus became the first Olympic champion since the Ancient Games. He also finished second in the high jump and third in the long jump. He left Harvard University to travel to Athens on a cargo ship and then by train to compete. Alfréd Hajos (HUN-swimming) won the 100m and the 1,200m events. For the longer race, the swimmers were transported by boat and left to swim back to shore alone. According to Hajos, "I must say that I shivered at the thought of what would happen if I got a cramp from the cold water. My will to live completely overcame my desire to win". PARIS 1900 The Games of 1900 were held in Paris as part of the Exposition Universelle Internationale - the Paris World's Fair. The exposition organizers spread the events over five months and de-emphasized their Olympic status to such an extent that many athletes died without ever knowing that they had participated in the Olympics.

Sep 9 Aug 31 Aug 24 Aug 31 Billy Mills - "Destiny" The Moment of Victory... At the 1964 Tokyo Olympic Games Billy Mills was virtually unknown. As the field toed the line for the start of the 10K final, Murray Halberg, Pyotr Bolotnikov and Ron Clarke were the favorites. Four current or future Olympic Gold Medalists and world record holders were in this race. It was Billy Mills, shattering his personal best by 46 seconds, who created the most electrifying finish in Olympic history. After being shoved out into lane four by Mohammed Gammoudi on the final lap, he found the speed to recover from a 10 yard deficit in the home stretch and sprint his way into the record books as the only American athlete ever to win the 10,000 meter gold medal. This archival photo shows the moment of victory as Billy Mills achieves his Olympic destiny.

Among the favored starters were Norwegian Grete Waitz, who had never lost a marathon she had finished; Portugal's Rosa Mota, who had won the marathon in the European Championships in 1982; and American Joan Benoit, who had set the world record of 2:22:43 in the woman's record many times and had run the first sub-2:30 marathons, had never met Benoit in a marathon race. Benoit was born in Cape Elizabeth, Maine, in 1957. Her earliest athletic passion was skiing, taught to her by her father who had been an army skier during World War II. As a high school sophomore she broke her leg on the slopes. As part of her recovery from that accident she began to run and she found that she liked running just as much as skiing. In college she played field hockey while continuing to run. When she showed up at practice one day sore from a thirteen-mile run the day before, the coach made her sit out the rest of the season and Benoit quit the team and started running full time. In 1979 she entered the Boston Marathon, her second marathon ever, as a Bowdoin College senior and won the women's division, setting an American record in the process.

Sep 25, 2005 Training THE HISTORY OF THE MARATHON: PART 1 By Mindy Solkin Owner and Head Coach The Running Center The first competitive marathon race was held as the final event of the track and field program at the 1896 Olympics in Athens, Greece. Despite many references in literature to the "revival" of the marathon in the 1896 Olympics, there had been no competitive marathon races before 1896! In 1894, when the 1896 Olympics were being planned, a French linguist and historian, Michel Breal, suggested that a 40K (24.8 miles) race be included in the track and field program. He believed the race, which would commemorate the run of Pheidippides from Marathon (a city in Greece) to Athens in 490BC, would add local interest to the Games. The Greek organizers agreed wholeheartedly. According to legend, Pheidippides, a Greek soldier and a champion runner in the ancient Olympics, had been chosen as the courier to bear the news of a surprise Greek victory over the invading Persians on the plains of Marathon. Exhausted from the battle and the 25-mile run from Marathon to Athens, Pheidippides blurted out the message, "Rejoice, we conquer!" Then he collapsed and died. During the 1896 Olympic track and field competition in Athens, the Greeks had suffered daily disappointments, largely because of the outstanding performances of the American athletes. Heavily favored in several events, the Greeks had not won anything.

Every four years its host city is succeeded by another. And every four years technology ensures that the precious flame in the latest torch model improves. However, there is one fundamental aspect of the summer Olympic Games torch relay that remains the same: the symbolism of the flame, ignited in a solemn ceremony in Greece with an appeal to the god Apollo to bring down the sun's rays in Olympia, is as potent ever. Few who were involved in the phenomenon that was the Sydney 2000 torch relay - whether as a bearer, observer, organiser or reporter - remained entirely unmoved by the emotional impact of the torch and its dramatic culmination in the lighting of the cauldron inside the Olympic stadium. Sixty-eight years after it began, the torch relay embodies hope, peace, joy and inclusion. And it's an exercise in high theatre, the greatest propaganda tool yet devised for a major event, an ephemeral flame passing through communities, uniting them as it goes and leaving a legacy of memories and involvement.

@import url("/olympics/css/athens_smh.css"); Welcome to 2004 Olympics. Skip directly to: Search Box Section Navigation Content Seared in the memory By Len Johnson June 2, 2004 Page Tools Email to a friend Printer format According to Olympic legend, Ron Clarke almost gave his right arm for the honour of carrying the Melbourne Olympic torch on its opening ceremony lap and lighting the Olympic cauldron. Fragments of magnesium spitting from the flame singed his arm and burnt holes in his white T-shirt. The combination of that and what Clarke insists were the over-zealous ministrations of a first-aid attendant in bandaging his arm from wrist to elbow led to the conclusion that he had suffered far more serious burns than he let on. The fact is, says Clarke, he would have given his right arm to run in the 1956 Games. An ill-timed three-month stint of national service duties deprived the then world junior record-holder for the mile from making a stronger bid to make the team as an athlete. (Clarke went on to run in two Olympic Games when he revived his career as a senior athlete.) "It was a great honour to be selected as the final torchbearer," says Clarke, now Mayor of the Gold Coast. "It was very exciting, but I would have given my right arm to be there as a competitor."
