Mimi nilkuwa naangalia official opening lakini sawa!!!

There are talks of Bolt not being fully fit but he says he will defend his titles, I hope sio ma excuses!!!

Will Spain become the 1st country to hold the world cup, Euro cup and the olympic football gold medal???

the pressure is on some countries like the mighty USA who are now pushing for total medal count instead of gold for medal table placement china is likely to upstage them either way.

south africa is also under intense pressure being the continental powerhouse they have set 12 medals as target i see them going back home with 2 medals.

kenya and ethiopia likely to account for 80% of all africa medals with botswana,zimbabwe,nigeria and south africa getting the rest

most african countries like tanzania and zambia are just hoping even for a bronze this being the Olympics thats a tall order

In the 800 women Jelimo will have to be at her very best to beat the Ethiopian Magiso,a morocan girl whose name escapes my mind plus we do not know what form the Russians are in(they have kept away from the golden league).
A fit Dibaba will prove a tough hurdle for Vivian in the 10 000.

Absolutes are :
3000 m steeplechase any of the 3 Kenyan participants
800 m Rudisha. The others will be bonuses. But both Vivian and Jelimo look like good value. I think 4 gold medals will be a good return.

I expect team kenya to beat the 2008 hunt of 6 gold which was the best all-time kenyan performance at the olympics, 8 gold for me!!!

Greek tripple jump champion has been expelled from the Olympics after posting a tasteless tweet about Africans.

"with so many Africans in Greece, at least the West Nile mosquitos will be eating food from their own home."

i think we do not need to worry about the morrocans and the russians most of them use performance enhancement substances and usually keep off the golden league so that they are not caught and only appear at the Olympics nine of them have already being banned

vivian has the world lead in 10000 meters it will come down to team tactics and they need to put up a punishing pace to tire out dibaba
