Olympic Files in Marathon – London 2012 - Who's Who in the Olympic Marathon

For several months we are knowing athletes who run in the Olympic marathon in London, both female and male category, 5 andAugust 12 respectively.

It is my intention, within my means, write about them, references and information, from each marathon runner before the Olympics.

This will be the central post. I will update with the names of athletes who are selected by their national federations and, when I'll publish the post with the information of each of them, will link from here.

Of course, This text will be open to you, through your comments, here or in each personal profile, to add information, news or comments.

I hope you enjoy it, linked it and will be a good reference who love this sport and the Olympic marathon ;-)
