Chair and former Olympian Lord Sebastian Coe and former Olympian Jonathan Edwards unveil a prototype of the London 2012's Olympic torch in London, England. Starting at Land's End in Cornwall on May 19, 2012 more than 8,000 torchbearers will begin a 70-day relay carrying the Olympic Flame around Great Britain.
The Athletes' Committee was established in May 2009 and replaced the
former Sport Advisory Group. Between them, the members of the group have
competed at 22 Olympic and nine Paralympic Games.
Jonathan
competed in Triple Jump at four Olympic Games, winning gold at Sydney
2000 and silver at Atlanta 1996. His world record jump of 18.29m at the
1995 World Championships in Gothenburg is yet to be beaten.
In 2002, Jonathan won Commonwealth Gold at Manchester and became one of
only four elite athletes to have held all four major world titles at the
same time: Olympic, World, European and Commonwealth. A glittering
career in sport has been matched by his accolades outside the stadium,
including BBC Sports Personality of the Year and the IAAF's Athlete of
the Year in 1995.
Having retired from competitive athletics in 2002, Jonathan played a
crucial role in London's bid for the 2012 Games as an official
