TRACK AND FIELD -- THAT'S WHEN THE POWER OF THE OLYMPICS IS UNLEASHED!
THE TRUE DISPLAY OF THE HUMAN SPIRIT AND SHEER POWER OF THE HUMAN BODY NOW COME INTO PLAY IN THE MOST HIGH PROFILE SEGMENTS OF THE OLYMPICS GAMES: ATHLETICS. (YES, PHELPS HAS DONE AN AMAZING THING IN BRINGING SWIMMING TO THE FOREFRONT OF THE PUBLIC EYE -- BUT IT IS STILL THE ATHLETES IN TRACK AND FIELD EVENTS WHO CAPTURE THE BULK OF IMAGINATION OF THE GLOBAL MASSES.)
USAIN BOLT OF JAMAICA HAS ALREADY SET THE MINDS OF PEOPLE REELING WITH HIS SPECTACULAR SPEED AND NOW RUSSIAN POLE VAULTER YELENA ISINBAYEVA HAS BROKEN HER OWN RECORD AND, IMPRESSIVELY, IN DOING SO KEPT THE ENTIRE STADIUM OF PEOPLE BACK JUST TO WATCH HER BREAK THE POLE VAULTING RECORD!
