Greece is the home country of the Olympic Games. Olympia, a Greek city, was known to be a very important centre of athletics. The Olympic games, held there every four years, were so important in Greek life that they were used as the basis for the Greek calendar.
The 1924 Olympic athletics competition was held at the [Stade Olympique de Colombes], slightly north of Paris. The track was 500 metres and this was the last time that Olympic competition would be contested on other than a 400-metre track.
