Hot Olympian: Leryn Franco

Leryn Franco
I don't think Leryn Franco needs further introductions to Olympic followers. She has been featured several times in sports blogs than Kim Kardashian on E!

And why not? She is a gorgeous, tall, dark-haired, javelin queen. She went from the track to the catwalk overnight and has become one of the world's biggest athlete-turned-model.

Many claimed that Leryn has just caused an upsurge of interest in women's javelin throwing. This is partly because she is a fine athlete, but mostly because she is a former runner-up in the Miss Paraguay pageant, a lingerie model and regularly voted into the world's top 10 most beautiful women athletes.

There are also quite a few pictures of Ms Franco wearing not much at all on the internet, including those sent out via her official Twitter account.

The stunning Paraguayan javelin thrower became an overnight sensation back at the Beijing 2008 Olympics. She might have finished in 51st place in the javelin throw at the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, but that doesn't matter. Few people were talking about her athletic skills as much as they were talking about her jaw-dropping good looks.
