Before I mention the results of the Lebanese Juniors and Youth Championships, last week the Inter-Lebanon and road running club has organized a local meeting at the Sports City of Beirut, where 2 national and 1 juniors’ records were broken! Nour Fakhoury (Inter-Lebanon) who broke the 100m Hurdles few days before, has just improved her record by hurdling a great 100m in 16.05 seconds! Her previous record was 16.45s. The record done, we expect her to do a sub 16 seconds, and of course she can! Furthermore, Maria-Pia Nehme (Inter-Lebanon) came back to her routine that consists of improving her performance race after race, to improve this time her 3000m national record clocking a beautiful 10:16.86. On the other hand, Badri Obeid (Army), the National record holder of Shot Put with 17.01m and 943 points set at the Jeux de la Francophonie in 2009, scored this time 17.16m which proves that he can always give his best and throw even further!
Back to the Youth and Juniors Championships; I was asking myself and I'm sure that many of you asked the same question before: Where are the Lebanese clubs? We only see 5 clubs of 20! Club Sportif de Jamhour, Inter-Lebanon, Champville, Antonins and Phoenicia, and the numberof participant is not large! Ok, track and field is not a popular sport like football and basketball, but it is the base of all sports! This is why it’s called the mother of all sports! Where are the young athletes?? And wher...

The 2012 Lebanese season started Thursday with the Junior Category and Saturday with the Seniors at the Lebanese University Championship. Without an indoor season unfortunately, most of the athletes appeared in April for the first time this year.
On Thursday 26th Nour Fakhroury (Inter-Lebanon) broke the 100m Hurdles Juniors record with 16.45 seconds, the previous record was held by Zeina Mina with 17.10s since 1981! Nour, a Lebanese Hurdler who was living and training in Spain, is now here and just signed her name in the history book!
On Saturday the 28th Mohammad Siraj Tamim (Inter-Lebanon) ran a beautiful one lap setting a new national record with 48.23 seconds! Behind him Ramzi Naim (Inter-Lebanon) who won the 100m in 10.88s, also ran a fabulous one lap clocking 48.49s! Ramzi broke two University records in the 100 and 400 meters. Both men are getting closer to the 48 seconds barrier; the question is now: "who will be the first Lebanese Athlete to break the 48 seconds barrier?" We should mention that this was the first time that two Lebanese run sub 49 seconds in one race, and they both broke the previous record of 48.76s done by Ali Hazer. Kassem Hamze who, in 1972 at the Ol... Read more » |

Every four years, the world comes together to watch athletes compete in either summer or winter sports competitions. Many athletes aspire and dream about the Olympics, few make it. But for those few, they are the top of their sport and arguably some of the best athletes of all time. Over the last 29 Olympics, there have been more than 12,000 medals handed out and this top 10 list is just a paltry sum when compared to the overall total. However, these Top 10 Olympians represent the cream of the crop winning the most gold medals.
For this list, ties are broken by most silver after gold and then most bronze.
