U.S. Olympic Hall of Fame
Table of Contents
History
The hall of fame was established in 1983 by the U. S. Olympic Committee. At this point, it exists only on paper. A museum building had been planned, but construction has been held up for lack of funding. No elections were held from 1992 through 2003. With sponsorship from Coca-Cola, the USOC again began looking into the possibility of holding more elections and ultimately building a home for the hall. In 2004, a new class was inducted for the first time in twelve years, with Allstate as the presenting sponsor. The class of ten included eight athletes, one team, and one special contributor.

The history and origins of track and field events. track and field has beenthe centerpiece of the summer olympic games since their revival in 1896.
http://athleticscholarships.net/history-of-track-and-field.htm
Home About Us What We Do Questions ... Contact Us was this how track and field started the origins and facts about running and track How it all began The ancient Olympic Games began in the year 776 BC, when Koroibos, a cook from the nearby city of Elis, won the stadium race, a foot race 600 feet long. According to some literary traditions, this was the only athletic event of the games for the first 13 Olympic festivals. Other evidence, both literary and archaeological, suggests that the games may have existed at Olympia much earlier than this date, perhaps as early as the 10th or 9th century BC. A series of bronze tripods have been found at Olympia, some of which appear to be dated at about the 9th century BC, and it has also been suggested that these tripods may in fact be prizes for some of the early events at Olympia. The marathon was not an event of the ancient Olympic games. The marathon is a modern event that was first introduced in the Modern Olympic Games of 1896 in Athens, a race from Marathon - northeast of Athens - to the Olympic Stadium, a distance of 42.195 kilometers. The race commemorates the run of Pheidippides, an ancient "day-runner" who carried the news of the Persian landing at Marathon of 490 BC to Sparta (a distance of 149 miles) in order to enlist help for the battle. According to the fifth century BC ancient Greek historian Herodotus, Pheidippides delivered the news to the Spartans the next day. The distance of the modern marathon was standardized as 26 miles 385 yards or 42,195 kilometers in 1908 when the Olympic Games were held in London. The distance was the exact measurement between Windsor Castle, the start of the race, and the finish line inside White City Stadium
