Video: 12 Eritrean Athletes - London Olympics 2012

12 Eritrean Athletes - London Olympics 2012: Eritrea is all about athletics, although its first Olympic cyclist Daniel Teklehaimanot will compete in London. Star performers Zersenay Tadese, the country's only Olympic medallist, won bronze in the 10,000m in 2004 and placed fifth the same event in 2008. He will compete in 2012 and is tipped as a strong contender for a medal, although his preferred distance is the half mile. Daniel Teklehaymanot is the first Eritrean cyclist - and the first non-track and field Olympian from the east African nation ever.
