Marathon medalist worried more about heat than pollution in Beijing
The men's marathon gold medalist at the 2004 Olympics in Athens said Thursday he is worried more about heat and humidity than air pollution during the upcoming Games in Beijing, which he will take part in. Stefano Baldini also told reporters that the recent debate over China's treatment of Tibet and other issues surrounding the Olympics has put him in an awkward position being asked to make political comments at a time when he wants to focus on his training.
