Seb Coe and The Terminator to join Vancouver Torch Relay

London 2012 Organising Committee Chair Seb Coe and California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger will join the final leg of the Vancouver 2010 Torch Relay on Friday.

Lighting the Flame for the Vancouver Torch Relay

Lighting the Vancouver 2010 Olympic Torch

They will join celebrities including astronaut Julie Payette, who will run Wednesday, and singers Jann Arden and Michael Buble on Thursday.

Over the course of its 106 day, 45,000-kilometre journey, the Torch will be carried by a total of 12,000 torchbearers through more than 1,000 communities. You can see route of the Torch's journey on the 2010 Olympic Torch Relay Route map

The Vancouver 2010 Olympic Games start on Friday, 12 February.

Seb said: 'The Torch Relay has a significant role in the run up to each Olympic Games. Arnold Schwarzenegger famously played ‘the Running Man’ and, as a running man myself, I look forward to receiving the Olympic Flame from him and representing London 2012 in Vancouver.'
