On the official Beijing Olympic site, the countdown as already started, no more than 165 days before the Games. People all around the world are patiently waiting for the big day to come, while some others are impatiently waiting, still training and working hard to keep the shape before the biggest competition of their life. Athletes are getting ready since 2004, right after the other games ended, leaving some more happy and proud of themselves than others. Imagine working as hard as you could possibly imagine, for 4 years, and than the day of the competition arrives, the stress and the pressure of your whole country on your shoulder, you are on the starting line, getting ready to run the 200 meter hurdle, and at the third one, you hit it and fall, destroying the dream of your life. The athletes are scarifying their whole life to become the best at what they do, and the Olympic Games are the best way for them to earn the recognition of their country.
