 The 8,000-mile route of the 2012 Olympic torch relay around the UK has been revealed. The torch will be taken within an hour's journey of 95% of the population as it passes through 1,018 villages, towns and cities. The London Organising Committee of the Olympic and Paralympic Games (Locog) has confirmed all the locations through which the Olympic flame will be carried by torchbearers. On parts of the journey, torchbearers will carry the flame on horseback, by bicycle, tram and steam train. The street-by-street detail of the route will be confirmed next year. List of places along the route of the Olympic Torch relay: (WARNING it's a rather LARGE list!!)

The Olympic Flame will come within 10 miles of 95% of people in the UK, Isle of Man, Guernsey and Jersey. It will enable local communities to shine a light on the best their area has to offer – including celebrations of local culture, breathtaking landscapes and dynamic urban areas.
The interactive map below shows each of the 1,019 communities the Flame will be carried through. Zoom in to see the detail of the route street-by-street. Live in the UK? Enter a postcode in the search box to find out where and when the Flame will be near you... then start planning how you will welcome it! You can also find the locations of evening celebrations, which take place at the end of almost every day of the Relay. See a list of the evening celebration locations and communities by region and date http://www.london2012.com/olympic-torch-relay-map Goes straight through Litherland here, which is only about a 15 minute walk away |

I'm not sure about how I feel about the whole olympics, someone told me that a lot of the athletes take drugs in a way that can't be detected.
But I guess getting loads of people interested in sports is a great thing.
