The Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics were opened last Friday and the first weekend of competition saw medals won and medals lost. Tracks changed and events postponed. Some athletes just happy to be in Vancouver while others won’t be happy until they’ve got a medal hanging round their neck. Either way, sport at the highest level always brings with it powerful images of concentrated athletes and spirited fans hoping their favorite will get that coveted moment of glory.
