Following the introduction of the IAAF’s brand new look and with striking images from the extremely successful IAAF World Championships in Berlin supplied by Athletics photographers of Getty Images Mark Dadswell, Alexander Hassenstein, Stu Forster, Martin Rose and Michael Steele, the IAAF is proud to present the 2010 IAAF Wall Calendar.

With triple World champion and now two-time World Athlete of the Year Usain Bolt on the cover – a striking image of Getty Images’ Ian Walton taken in Kingston, Jamaica during the IAAF Day in the Life, this calendar will accompany you throughout the 2010 athletics season with reminders of dates of all IAAF World Athletics Series and all IAAF Diamond League meetings.

Athletes featured in the various months include Jessica Ennis of Great Britain, Steven Hooker of Australia, Linet Masai of Kenya, Robert Harting of Germany, Olga Kaniskina of Russia, Kenenisa Bekele of Ethiopia, Blanka Vlasic of Croatia, Sanya Richards of the US, Andreas Thorkildsen of Norway, Valerie Vili of New Zealand, Kerron Clement of the US and the above mentioned Bolt.

To denote the universality and versatility of our sport the 2010 IAAF Wall Calendar features 12 World champions representing no fewer than 11 countries and four continents with disciplines of running, throwing, jumping, walking and combined events all in the spotlight.
