Naudib ju spordisõber võistlustel sportlase kehalist tublidust, musklite jõudu, kaaslastest liigutuste ilus, kiiruses ja tehnikas üleolekut. Just see paneb vaimustuma, tekitab pinget ning põnevust. Sportlase ajadefitsiidi tingimustes lahendatud mõtlemisülesanded, tema hingeseisund ja motiveeritus jäävad pealtvaatajate eest varju. Nii nagu jääb spordihuviliste enamusele varjatuks see vaimne loominguline protsess, milles osalevad sportlase ja treeneri kõrval sporditeadlased, meedikud, toitumisspetsialistid ja paljud teised asjatundjad ning mille eesmärgiks on kollektiivse mõistuse abil töötada välja optimaalne strateegia ja taktika, parimad meetodid sportlase valmistumisel suurvõistlusteks. “Peking 2008 – mis eristab võitjaid kaotajatest?”, kus esinejateks Eesti olümpiakandidaadid Pekingi olümpiamängudeks, meie silmapaistvad treenerid, sporditeadlased ning -eksperdid, püüab paotada ust sellesse sporditeadmise, - tunnetuse,
