Is anyone going be involved in/got tickets for the biggest world sporting event of the year - here in Helsinki?
I was lucky enough as a young lad to be a spectator at the first World Champs in '83. I remember watching Tiina Lillak winning the Javelin (amazing atmoshere) and the Americans dropping the baton right in front of me in the men' s relay.
I don't have any tickets yet but am at least going to watch the marathons. Hopefully Paula Radcliffe can win a Gold at last, I'll cheer her on anyway.
I just hope Finland can get a medal or two!
Expect to see alot of nationalities in tracksuits strolling around aimlessly Helsinki in the first week of August.
