What is the total length of all the ‘throwing’ events?
What is the difference between the men’s marathon winner and the women’s?
If all the jumping events were added together (both height and length) what distance would be covered?
How much further is the men’s compared to the women’s result?
How fast on average were each of the relay runners running?
If you add together all the distance track events for either the men or women, how many laps round the stadium would these amount to? (The stadium track is 400m once round).
The Olympics is also a great opportunity to highlight the Olympic values of excellence, friendship and respect. The official Olympic website offers lots of information about the history of the Games plus current sports and athletes.
