In fact, track and field is the group of events that comprised the core of the very first Olympics in ancient Greece .

Taylor, a management student at Morris Brown, won the 400-meter hurdles at the U.S. Olympic Trials with a personal best time of 47.62 seconds the fastest time in the world this year. Check out Taylor's diary on CNNSI.com as he prepares to compete in Sydney. August 29, 2000 Gateshead, England After two meets in Europe, I am feeling strong and fast. The first meet on this trip was in Brussels, Belgium and the second in Gateshead, England. Now, I have one more meet in Berlin before heading home for a brief rest before going to Sydney. The Brussels meet the Van Damme Memorial went all right for me. I didn't feel really into it prior to the 400-meter hurdles, my race. But when the gun went off, I started to feel okay. It was a sloppy race at the beginning, but I got it together and moved into the lead.

    Olympic History: Field Hockey
    Field hockey dates back to the Egyptians (2050 B.C.) and was one of the earliest sports where women were able to engage in strenuous activity. Over centuries, the rules and playing surfaces have changed, but the two-team stick-and-ball concept has remained intact. It was not until the 19th century that field hockey became firmly established and was still considered the only proper sport for women. As the sport spread in popularity throughout Europe, it reached the U.S. in 1901 and 21 years later, the U.S. Field Hockey Association was established. The International Federation of Women's Hockey Associations (IFWHA) was formed in 1927. The women played according to the men's rules, but their clothing was cumbersome. Skirts hung nearly to the ground to cover every inch of their legs and heavy petticoats, corsets, long sleeves and high, stiff collars impeded movement.
