Fact of the day

When Ethiopian Haile Gebrselassie won the 10,000 metres at the Sydney Olympics in 2000 his winning margin of victory over Kenyan rival Paul Tergat was only 0.09sec, closer than the winning margin in the men's 100m final. That race was won by American Maurice Greene, who beat Trinidad and Tobago's Ato Boldon by 0.12.

Freshfields - Latest Sponsor to Issue Pins

February 8 - Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer are the latest sponsor to issue pins. As a Tier 3 partner, it's likely that these pins are only for internal use and are not for issue to the public.

They have released 2 pins (FB0001 and FB0002) which combine their logo and company name with the Games logo and Paralympic logo. The logo pin seems to have raised letters made in the pressing of the pin whereas the Paralympic version seems to be a combination of printing and enamel. No information on issue sizes.

Thanks to a reader for the information and images.
