# Kyrgyzstan at the 2004 Summer Olympics

Kyrgyzstan competed at the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens, Greece, from 13 to 29 August 2004. This was the nation's third appearance at the Olympics in the post-Soviet era.
The National Olympic Committee of the Republic of Kyrgyzstan sent the nation's smallest delegation to the Games. A total of 29 athletes, 22 men and 7 women, competed only in 9 sports. Eight Kyrgyzstani athletes had previously competed in Sydney, including 43-year-old marathon runner Irina Bogachova, Greco-Roman wrestler Gennady Chkhaidze, who finished fifth for his native country Georgia in the men's heavyweight division, and Asian Games silver medalist Evgeny Vakker in men's road cycling. Freestyle swimmer Ruslan Ismailov, aged 14, set the nation's Olympic milestone as the youngest ever athlete to compete at the Olympics. Weightlifter and 2000 Olympian Mital Sharipov was the nation's flag bearer in the opening ceremony.
For the second time in history, Kyrgyzstan failed to win a single Olympic medal in Athens.
