Product Description
For a thousand years Olympic competitors didn't wear any clothes... In 1912 a marathon runner fell asleep by the roadside. He finished the course in 1966... For nearly a century, women weren't allowed to run the marathon - in case they exhausted themselves! The extraordinary story of the Olympic Games, from their beginnings in Ancient Greece right up to the Rio de Janeiro Olympics of 2016, and the funny, surprising, heroic exploits of winners and losers from all over the world.
