The Olympic flame will arrive on French territory on May 8, 2024, and will pass through Marseille, Toulon, and Nice in particular. The Games Committee has unveiled the official route of the relay, which will take place from May 8 to July 26, 2024. The relay will involve 11,000 carriers, who will take turns covering 200 meters each with the torch in hand. Registration is now open for those who wish to participate in this giant relay.
At France 3 Côte d’Azur, a member of the web editorial staff has registered to participate in the draw. Martin Falaizeau, a 24-year-old alternating journalist, has voluntarily registered to carry the Olympic flame in the Alpes-Maritimes. Martin, who is currently on a work-study program to become a journalist, has already run the Paris marathon and is in the prime of his life. He will represent France 3 Côte d’Azur, with the camera following him along the way.
For those who want to register a loved one, the process is simple. Just visit the website of the selection of flame carriers and click on the tab “I nominate a relative.” The candidate must be over 15 years old, and parental consent will be required for those under 15. The registration process involves writing a statement of up to 300 words explaining why the nominee can make the Games shine. Authentic stories are preferred, and it is important to stay true to reality and avoid providing sensitive information.
After the registration is validated, the nominated person will receive an email informing them of their registration. In July, the candidates will go through a draw specific to each region, and if selected, they will then go before a regional jury. The answer will be revealed in July, and France 3 Côte d’Azur hopes that Martin will be chosen. If not, they will be looking for runners to share their experiences.
