Those of you who remember the pain and frustration of Konami's 1983 hit NES game Track and Field may want to stay off Google tomorrow (today?), as an interactive Olympic-themed Google doodle lets you 'race' the 110m hurdles.
It's a classic finger-mashing game of athleticism, a challenge the equal of the actual Olympics (if the Olympics required the bare minimum of hand fitness). Google has been running special Olympic doodles throughout the Games, but this is the first interactive one.
The current world record for the men's 110m hurdles is 12.87 seconds, held jointly by Dayron Robles of Cuba and Lie Xiang of China. The best runners in the world can regularly race under 13 seconds, but we haven't managed that here yet in Wired.co.uk Towers. Our best was a paltry 13.9 seconds -- easily beatable, surely.
See what you can do (and remember, you can download a port of Konami's Track and Field from the Xbox Live Marketplace if your interest in button-mashing sports games has been rekindled).
We bear no responsibility for broken keyboards..

London 2012 hurdles can be termed as the most fun Olympic doodle ever that Google has created. Today, as the biggest sporting extravaganza entered its 12th day, Google greeted users with its first playable Olympic doodle which shows 110 metres men’s race with 10 hurdles.
The interactive doodle, in the shape of a laptop, lets the user participate in the hurdles race by using the left-right arrow keys to run and the spacebar to jump over the hurdles.
The score is displayed on the screen along with star ratings once the race is over. The experience can also be shared on Google+.
However, the doodle appears only as a static image on mobile Web browsers.
Yesterday, Google celebrated London 2012 Javelin competition with a night theme doodle that had the spotlight on a male athlete preparing to throw the Javelin in front of a jam-packed stadium.
Google featured London 2012 Synchronised Swimming doodle, depicting a team of female synchronised swimmers performing a routine on Sunday.
Earlier, Google had celebrated London 2012 Olympics events like Pole Vault, Shot Put, Table Tennis, Hockey, Artistic Gymnastics men's Rings, Fencing, Diving and Archery with a different doodle theme for every sport.
The opening ceremony of the London 2012 Olympics on July 27 was celebrated with doodle depicting five athletes playing different Olympics sports.

London 2012 Hurdles - An Interactive Animated Google Doodle.
Google has a new Doodle for Tuesday, the 12th day of the London Olympics and this time it is one which surfers can interact with. Press play and users can get their athlete to compete in the hurdles!
A tribute to each sport being contested in the ongoing Olympics, the latest Doodle will have surfers trying to make an animated character jump over hurdles using the spacebar on their keyboards while the arrow buttons (left and right) are to be presses repeatedly to make it go faster.
While most may find it rather simple, actual athletes on the field have to train hard to compete in the hurdles event, especially to gain success in the Olympics where the level of competition is right at the top.
The 110m hurdles has been included in the 2012 Summer Games and women will compete in the 100m category. Athens, in 1886, had the hurdles for the first time with Thomas Curtis of the United States winning the gold medal. It was also the only time the event did not have a bronze medal. Traditionally, United States have been dominating the event in the Olympics, claiming the Gold in all years except 1920, 1928, 1976, 1980, 1992, 2000 and 2004 (in the 110m category). That is 19 Golds in 26 Olympics for USA.

It is not only watching the Olympics at work that bosses across the world need to be worried about, on Tuesday they may also be fretting over employees competing against each other in the playable London 2012 hurdles Google doodle, tippity tapping away on their keyboards.
The twelfth doodle that Google has posted during the London 2012 is easily Google's most fun Olympic doodle ever.
The interactive doodle lets you participate in a hurdles race (though you'll be the only runner on screen) and use the left-right arrow keys to run and the spacebar to jump over the 10 hurdles in the race.
Once the race is over a score (in seconds) is displayed on the screen and also gives a star rating. An armchair hurdler managing a score lower than 11.8 seconds will get a three-star rating. Users can also share their Google armchair Olympic hurdles achievement on Google+.
Google London 2012 hurdles doodle shows a 110 metres men's race with 10 hurdles. The World Record in the event is 12.87 seconds and the Olympics Record stands at 12.91 seconds. In the little time we played with the doodle we could easily shatter the records.
The Google London 2012 hurdles doodle is in the shape of a laptop, perhaps also indicating that the game can only be played on computers with keyboards. The doodle appears only as a static image on mobile Web browsers.

London 2012 Slalom Canoe Google Doodle (HD)
Over the last few days Google have launched 3 Olympic Google Doodle Games. These games have been cleverly designed as Google Doodles and each one have their own unique Olympic sport theme. The London 2012 Google Games have been designed using a clever mix of HTML 5, Adobe Flash and JavaScript.
These Google doodles sparked a renewed interest in Google Doodles, the Olympics and the Sport Events happening at the London 2012 Olympics. We here at 3D Car Shows love that Google are pushing the sports and providing massive extra exposure to the Olympics and the featured sports in particular.
If you missed any of the 3 London 2012 Olympic Games they are:
London 2012 Slalom Canoe
London 2012 Basketball
London 2012 Hurdles
The London 2012 Slalom Canoe game was launched on August 9, 2012. The purpose of the game is to kayak as fast as possible down the river. In the river there are beacons that you need to pass trough. If you miss a beacon extra seconds are added to your final time. The game also has obstacles that you need to avoid as these will slow you down. The London 2012 Slalom Canoe Game is by far the game that requires most skills to complete.
The game is fun to play and an excellent way for Google to provide more exposure to the Olympics providing more information on the London 2012 Slalom Canoe Olympic competition.

After launching London 2012 Hurdles game, Google has come up with yet another interactive doodle today to represent London 2012 Basketball which allows users score points while playing the match on their computers.
This is Google’s thirteenth and second interactive doodle of the ongoing London 2012 Olympics. Using the space bar or by holding and releasing the left mouse key, the interactive basketball doodle lets users shoot baskets.
The doodle featuring a basketball player also allows you to shoot as many baskets as you can in 24 seconds. The doodle also shows a countdown timer and the points earned.

Google Doodle - Hurdles at London 2012 Olympics
Google is keeping up with its tradition of coughing up Google Doodles on a pretty regular basis, especially during the current ongoing London Olympics. We have already seen doodles related to different sports so far. Today, it is the turn of Hurdles Google has done one hell of a job of creating a cool little mini game, that I dare say is very addictive.
Titled Hurdles 2012, users can control the player by pressing the left and right arrow keys and while doing so, the speed of the player accelerates. Users need to press the space bar to make the runner jump the hurdle. The game takes time getting used to, and the secret sauce for getting it right is not only timing of pressing the space bar but also getting enough momentum by alternating between the arrow keys as fast as possible.
Once the mini game is complete, Google will give your time along with the options to replay the mini game or post the time on your Google+ profile.

Halloween is celebrated every year on October 31 in a number of countries around the world. And like last year, Google is celebrating the event with an interactive doodle. The doodle on the Google homepage features a witch flipping through the pages of a book which seems to include information about witchcraft. As you press the play button, the witch appears and starts practising witchery. In this doodle, there are four different items, including an apple, bone, bottle and skull, available to the witch for performing witchery. The witch needs two items to do witchery and cast an evil spell. She lets you choose those items and produce spooky results. To add to the atmosphere there is also an eerie sound playing in the background.
Halloween is also called All Hallows' Eve. As it falls on the eve of All Saints' Day, it has a religious significance for some Christians otherwise it is nowadays observed largely as a secular celebration.

Google’s latest Doodle focuses on “O,†shows off synchronized swimming.
Here’s the latest Google Doodle for the London 2012 Olympics, please welcome, the synchronized swimming.
Apparently, the London 2012 synchronized swimming event will start on August 5, London local time. Clicking the Doodle will initiate a search for the event which includes the synchronized swimming’s very own Knowledge graph containing all the helpful information including the event’s brief history.
According to its Wikipedia entry, the event has been contested at the Summer Olympics since the 1984 Games. The current rules allow competition in duet and team events only but in past games, a solo event was also contested.
The Wikipedia entry added:
The United States, Canada and Japan have traditionally been the strongest nations in the sport, winning every Olympic medal from 1984 through 1996, but Russia has recently dominated, winning every event in 2000, 2004 and 2008.
The Google Doodle features 8 swimmers forming the first letter O of the Google logo. Isn’t it nice?
Here’s the schedule of the London 2012 synchronized swimming event, as reported by the Google Knowledge Graph:
August 5, Duets Preliminary (2/2), 10:00 AM; August 6, Duets Preliminary (1/2), 10:00 AM; August 7 Duets Free Routine – Final, 10:00 AM; August 9, Teams Technical Routine, 1
