歷屆奧運(yùn)會(huì)回顧：1912年瑞典奧運(yùn)會(huì)
瑞典是現(xiàn)代體育開展較早的國(guó)家之一。1894年瑞典就向剛成立的國(guó)際奧委會(huì)表示過(guò)，希望能在自己的國(guó)土上舉辦奧運(yùn)會(huì)。 但是，前幾屆會(huì)址已選定。因此，柏林棄權(quán)后，瑞典欣然接受了主辦1912年奧運(yùn)會(huì)的重任，地點(diǎn)就選定在首都斯德哥爾摩。本屆奧運(yùn)會(huì)應(yīng)邀參賽的有28個(gè)國(guó)家，運(yùn)動(dòng)員共2547人，其中女子57人，男子2490人。參賽的國(guó)家和運(yùn)動(dòng)員數(shù)都是創(chuàng)紀(jì)錄的。KEY FACTS

STOCKHOLM 1912 Games of the V Olympiad
Held in Stockholm, the 1912 Olympics were a model of efficiency. The Swedish hosts introduced the use of unofficial electronic timing devices for the track events, as well as the first use of a public address system. The modern pentathlon was added to the Olympic program. Women's events in swimming and diving were also introduced. Sweden would not allow boxing contests to be held in their country.
After the Games, the International Olympic Committee decided to limit the power of host nations in deciding the Olympic program. If there was an unofficial theme of the 1912 Games, it was endurance. The course for the cycling road race was 320km (199 miles), the longest race of any kind in Olympic history.
The most popular hero of the 1912 Games was Jim Thorpe of the United States. Thorpe won the five-event pentathlon and shattered the world record in the ten-event decathlon. One member of the Austrian team that finished second in the team sabre fencing event was Otto Herschmann, who was, at that time, president of the Austrian Olympic Committee. Herschmann is the only sitting national Olympic committee president to win an Olympic medal.
