Dylan is pictured above during the final of the men's Shot Put at the 2008 Olympic Games

in Beijing. Armstrong produced a superb performance, with a new national record of 21.04m

(the inset picture shows him celebrating after that put), but agonisingly missed out

on a bronze medal by just 1cm to Andrei Mikhnevich.  Photo G. H. © 15th August 2008.
