Judo at the 2004 Summer Olympics took place in the Ano Liossia Olympic Hall and featured 368 judoka competing for 14 gold medals with seven different weight categories in both the men 's and women 's competitions . Japan dominated the event by taking 8 gold and 2 silver medals . Gold and silver medals in each weight class were determined by a single-elimination bracket . There was a repechage for those who are eliminated by one of the eventual semifinalists . Since there are four semifinalists , this means that four of the losers of the round of 32 ( i.e. , 25% ) faced four of the losers from the round of 16 ( 50% ) . The winners of these matches faced the four judokas who have lost in the quarterfinals . The winners , then , of these four matches faced each other to narrow the repechage field down to two judokas . Until this stage , the repechage has been segregated into two distinct halves , with each successive competitor facing another one from the same half of the original bracket ; but each of the two judokas who emerge from the repechage challenged the loser of the other bracket 's semifinal . ( Since these two always come from opposite halves of the original bracket , they could not have faced each other already . ) The winners of these two matches were each awarded a bronze medal , making judo unusual among Olympic events in not determining a single third-place finisher . There was controversy in the men 's competition , when Iranian competitor and two-times world champion Arash Miresmaeili weighed in overweight and was disqualified before a match in which he would have faced Israeli judoka Ehud Vaks . Miresmaeili 's comments strongly suggested that he had intentionally disqualified himself so as not to compete against an Israeli .
Men 's 73 kg competition in judo at the 2004 Summer Olympics was held on August 16 at the Ano Liossia Olympic Hall . This event was the third-lightest of the men 's judo weight classes , limiting competitors to a maximum of 73 kilograms of body mass . Like all other judo events , bouts lasted five minutes . If the bout was still tied at the end , it was extended for another five-minute , sudden-death period ; if neither judoka scored during that period , the match is decided by the judges . The tournament bracket consisted of a single-elimination contest culminating in a gold medal match . There was also a repechage to determine the winners of the two bronze medals .

Vanderlei Cordeiro de Lima ( born 11 August 1969 in Cruzeiro do Oeste , Paraná , Brazil ) is a former long-distance runner who specialised in marathons . While leading the marathon after 35 km at the 2004 Summer Olympics , he was attacked by a former Irish priest Cornelius Neil Horan . Following the incident he fell back from first to third place , winning the bronze medal . He was later awarded the Pierre de Coubertin medal for sportsmanship for that race . Horan was defrocked by the Catholic Church the following year in January 2005 . De Lima won the Tokyo International Marathon in 1996 and the Hamburg Marathon in 2004 . He won the South American Cross Country Championships in 1995 , and the marathon at the Pan American Games twice consecutively in 1999 and 2003 . He lit the Olympic cauldron and carried the Olympic flame during the opening ceremony of the 2016 Summer Olympics .
At the 2004 Summer Olympics , the athletics events were held at the Athens Olympic Stadium from August 18 to August 29 , except for the marathons ( run from Marathonas to the Kallimarmaro Stadium ) , the race walks ( on the streets of Athens ) , and the shot put ( held at the Ancient Olympia Stadium ) . A total of 46 events were contested , of which 24 by male and 22 by female athletes .
The men 's marathon at the 2004 Summer Olympics took place on August 29 in the streets of Athens , Greece . These streets were recently painted for the event , which provided an excellent road surface for the athletes . Drawing upon the ancient origins of the race , the marathon began in Marathon , Greece , and eventually ended at Panathinaiko Stadium , the venue previously used for the 1896 Athens Olympics . The 26.2 miles ( 42.2 km ) journey began in Marathon . The top contenders all found themselves in a large leading group that held a modest pace through the half marathon . A few tried to surge ahead but the most successful was Vanderlei De Lima 's attack at 20k . Past 25k , Stefano Baldini raised the tempo taking seven others with him . Finally , the chase group had been whittled down to three : Stefano Baldini , Paul Tergat , and Mebrahtom Keflezighi . After 35k was passed , Tergat ( the world record holder ) cracked , leaving two runners to chase behind . Baldini then closed the gap to De Lima after the latter was attacked while dropping Keflezighi . Baldini moved into the lead and took it home for the gold medal in 2:10:55 . Keflezighi caught the fading De Lima as well to take the silver in 2:11:29 .
