Which athletes will shine in 2008?
Building up to the Beijing Olympics
Fitting climax
There is always that extra buzz in Olympic year. We will see athletes who maybe had a fallow season last year and will have saved themselves for 2008.

It will be electric across all the events and there is the anticipation of the head-to-heads.

Money talks and a big cheque may see Gay and Powell (pictured left) face each other, but I don't think they will. That just builds the anticipation, which is great.

It is what you wait for as an athlete and a spectator. Olympic year is when all the big guns are out and are in the best possible shape.
