This is the story of two of the world's greatest ever milers, Seb
Coe and Steve Ovett. Before the Moscow Olympics, Coe and Ovett had
barely raced each other. They had, however, established impressive
race credentials and traded world records. So when the Olympics
came round, it was showdown time. There is still no athletics clash
which in living memory has come close to the Olympic duels of Coe
and Ovett in Moscow. The combination of record-breaking runs and
media hype generated huge public interest. And when, just weeks
before the Olympics started, Ovett first broke and then equalled
two of Coe's world records, the stage was set for the most titanic
of Olympic duels. The Coe-Ovett showdown in Moscow was, and still
is, sporting theatre of the highest order.
