The Queen's
Jubilee Baton Relay will pass through over 500 cities, towns and
villages across the UK and will be carried by 5,000 individuals,
with each Runner carrying the Baton up to 500 yards.
The Runners
will be made up of people from all walks of life including athletes,
celebrities and local heroes from all over the country.
Around 2500
Jubilee Runners were nominated by the community to carry the Baton
because they made a special contribution to their community or achieved
a personal goal against the odds.
The judging
of the Jubilee Runners was conducted by a panel of judges under
the supervision of The Duke of Edinburgh鈥檚 Award in January 2002
and all Runners have now been notified of their selection.
Don't forget
to check whether the Baton will be coming to a town near you. See
Full UK Route details.
