Torch Relay:

Vancouver 2010 Olympic Torch Relay


Being part of the Vancouver 2010 Olympic Torch Relay was an experience that I will remember and share for the rest of my life.

I carried the Olympic Flame on December 29, 2009 in my hometown Athens, Greece (I live in Montreal since 1993). I ran on Panepistimiou Street at approximately 5:30 p.m. - just 30 minutes before the Flame Handover ceremony at the Panathenian Stadium!

I have to admit that other than the birth of my two children (wish they were there to see me) this was the most memorable moment of my life!!




Congratulations Maki! Maybe your kids didn't see you, but maybe you'll see your kids carry the flame some day!
