The jog of London's 2012 Olympic torch

It is wonderful how today's information floats in the deep ocean of social media. Inspired by a tweet, this morning decided to slightly change the topic of my blog, going direction Olympics and the symbol of all - the famous flame of ancient Greece.












The pictures shown above are from the Sport, Leisure and Events Management (GIHE, Switzerland) program's field trip in winter (2006) of IOC's headquarters in Lausanne, Switzerland.

In about an year London is hosting the 30th summer Olympics, the city's third one after 1908 and 1948. The tradition of carrying the Olympic flame (Video), in which participation of 8'000 torchbearers and 1000 communities in UK, will start its relay in Greenwich Maritime.
