There is a series of test events in the year leading up to the Games, some of which will have public access.

Detailed reports were given on the test events held in February 2008 and the lessons learned from them.

The test event for cross country occurred during the weekend of 15-17 February 2008.

We're looking forward to going into the test event and putting in the result we should have done at the Worlds.

It has an Olympic feel already, and this is just the test event.

Construction on all but of the venues used took place between 1968 and was completed by early 1971 in time for the test events.

This meant that not all disciplines could have a test event before the games began.

"Our purpose is to do a kind of test event," she said.

My point is what we did was a normal test event.

Then it will host test events in both 2012 and 2013.
