Olympic hopeful Abdul Rashid Bangura (27) jumps rope while training at the national stadium in Sierra Leone's capital of Freetown on April 25. Sierra Leone's national boxing team was scrambling to raise money to send athletes to an Olympic qualifying event starting in Morocco on Friday, but lack of financing and government support means the competition is likely out of reach for most of the national team.

US men's water polo team captain Tony Azevedo trains in Thousand Oaks, near Los Angeles, Calif. on April 12. The team won the silver medal at the 2008 Beijing Olympics.
South African Oscar Pistorius tries a start during a training session in Gemona on July 13 near Udine, Italy. Pistorius needed a track in Europe to train at so the mayor of Gemona built him one. The double-amputee runner will take his final few steps to the London Olympics and history at his training camp in northern Italy, running lap after lap on those carbon fiber blades and focusing on his new goal of making the semifinals at the world's biggest meet.
