The motto  of the Olympics are universal (1030) friendship. The competitors enter into the contests not to win but to participate. Participation is looked approximately as more important than victory. All ideas of national rivalries and jealousies are forgotten. Considerations of politics, race, religion, wealth and power are of no importance here. Among the most interesting events in the Olympic Games are 100-metre, 200-meter and 400-metre races swimming, diving, cycling. gymnastics, high jump and pole vault. In all these items men compete with men and women compete Post with women. The fall of the Olympic Marathon is moreover a wonderful and risk-taking moment.

The winners of Olympic gold medals achieve great honour and glory not only for themselves but also for their countries.
