How do you think the brits will do?

Personally the 400 meters, cycling and long jump are our best

We got a few swimmers that will get us some medals I'm sure. Also there is Kelly Sotherton, Martin Rooney, Christine Ohuruogu and Nicola Sanders along with that sailor who always wins gold and the show jumping we usually win. And know doubt that we will get the odd one from archery But the Cylcing and long jump are the one we're best at.

After Cavendish produced something amazing in france, gold is ours for the taking.

Martin Rooney is he that 200m runner?

martin rooney is a 400m runner. I dont think china is a good place to hold the olympics, to much polloution so whats gonna happen if they have to run a marathon in a city with tonnes of polloution? lol

The pollution is dreadful, you can see it in the pictures!! Apparently all traffic was to be stopped leading up to the games in Beijing and it needs to be as the pollution level there is now higher than ever according to BBC news, and we are two weeks away from the start. Personally I think most athletes will refuse to run when the day comes.

I think Mo Farah is a good contender for a medal tbh, he has been a good consistant runner in qualifying.

USA are obviously the favourites but hopefully they dont run away with it as it would make the games more exciting and appealing.

Due too the time difference will the games be on tv in the early hours of the morning over here?

EDIT: Also paula radcliffe has declared she will be running, which is good news and hopefully another medal for team GB
