		Darren's misfortune continued in Atlanta, where he was prevented from finishing the relay in the 4 x 100m, as the baton was dropped before it reached him.
		Darren reached the semi-final of the 100m in the World Championships, despite being disappointed in not reaching the final, Darren ran a superb relay leg in the 4x100m winning a silver medal and gaining a European record in 37.73secs.
		Darren was coming into fantastic form at just the right time when he had superb performances in both the 100m and 200m at the AAA World Trials in Birmingham at the end of July.

	Darren Campbell (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		Darren was named team captain by UK Athletics for the Europa Cup in Poland in June, and inspired a great performance by the men's team and was a member of the winning 4 x 100m relay squad that won in time of 38.67secs.
		Darren bravely ran in the 100m but was unable to progress further than the first round however this enabled him more time to receive treatment to his injury.
		Darren will be the first to admit that his busy diary after the 2004 Olympic Games, meant that he lost his focus for a while, but having spent 8 weeks of the 2005 winter training in Australia with Linford and Christian Malcolm, rekindled his desire to go on to the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing.

		Campbell briefly walked away from the sport after the Atlanta Olympics in 1996 because he was so disillusioned after he dropped the baton in the relay.
