With the Opening Ceremonies of the Rio Olympics less than 24 hours away, we are putting up the final touches to the Olympic Preview featuring the ten athletes with Washington ties competing in the track and field portion of the Olympics in Rio.

Our preview will be similar to the ones produced for the 2008 Olympics in Beijing, the 2012 Olympics in London and the IAAF World Track & Field Championships—it will be in a .pdf file that you can download and have by your side while watching on TV or on various internet platforms, including desktop & mobile devices.
