    Marine Corps Air Station Cherry Point Commissary Special Olympics participants gaze through mist generated by a fog machine while they prepare to run through a banner before the start of the competition. The Olympics as a whole started in Athens more than 140 years ago, and the athletes that compete still astonish the world with their feats today. In 1968, a new form of the Olympics took place at Soldier Field, Ill., and the event was called the First International Special Olympic Games. As part of this annual event, the commissary hosted a local Special Olympics, Jan. 9.
