Nice triple jump record. I've tried quite a few times and not toppled my own record. Btw, I noticed I beat both your 1500m records. I only did this event once, it seemed ridiculously easy.

For 800m and 1500m, you only have to figure out your tactics, and you can win every race. All of my races I have won comfortably, without really sprinting round the track. Unfortunately my Athens game save got corrupted so I will need to make new records!

Anybody found anything to unlock yet?

i tend to over do it on the long distance races so have very little left for a sprint finish.Any tips?

Ive just beat the World Record in 800m and the Olympic Record in the 1500m (3:32:09)

Tips for 1500m

Go full pelt at the start, until 3 hearts are empty. Then go slow so you are hardly or not pushing the analog stick up at all. Wait for all your hearts to fill again, before repeating. Do this, and when you start the last lap, wait until there are 300m left, then put your foot on the gas. If you have full hearts, you should get to 140m only losing 2 or 3 hearts maximum, then when you hit 135m, smack the Speed Boost and fly down the home straight!

Hope those tips work, good luck!

cheers Ronaldo i followed your advice to the letter i think you should too. new world record now stands at 3.25.55 did it by not touching the analog at all after losing 3 hearts and only touching it again when it hits the max even on the last lap.You're a star cheers mate

oh and now 1.42.50 for the 800m

No problem

Ive now beaten Olympic Records in 1500m, triple jump, javelin and discus.

Broken World Records in high jump, pole vault, and 800m

top stuff I wish this game kept note of the previous world records as I now don't know which records I have broken and which ones I haven't.I guess I could just remove my memory card but I can't be bothered lol.

Guess it's onto swimming for me next if my fingers don't break.

Oh and If I remember correctly Ronaldo you were having trouble with the skeet shooting (understandable) Best tip I can offer is to track the flight of the pigeon before it hits the screen.ie start mid point of the arc, pull then slowly move your cursor to mirror the flight of the pigeon.If you are moving it slowly enough it should drop into line about 2 thirds along the arc and be much easier to hit.Doesn't help much with the doubles but it should boost your score a little.

It's nice to see the neo people are honest as a certain rival site has people claiming sub 9 second 100 Metres along with other surely fake records

I need to practise 200m I think. No way I can keep up the pace for 20 seconds. Any tips?
