[edit] BMX/OWS?

Apparently BMX bike racing and open-water swimming are added as Olympic events starting in 2008. Is there any word on the London venues for these sports? Radagast 22:22, 6 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Changes to Olympic Park Masterplan!

I just heard from a recent news report that the plans for the London Olympic Park have been revised! Several sports venues have been moved to different locations.

The new plan will consist of:

The Olympic Stadium The Aquatics Centre The Athletes Village Handball Arena

  • Basketball Arena
  • Fencing Hall
  • Velodrome
  • BMX Track
  • Paralympic Tennis and Archery
  • MPC/IBC

(*-the venue has moved to a different location)

In addition to that, Volleyball has moved to Earls Court. Jim856796 00:04, 8 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Marathon

Has the route of the marathon been decided? If so it would be good to include an outline. Same goes for walking events etc.--MarkyParky 11:47, 12 September 2006 (UTC)

The London 2012 website's interactive map has a dotted line on it to illustrate the Marathon Route, but the details are far from precise. Safe to say it will take in some of Central Londons most recognisable landmarks, but I don't think we should go adding details until theres something more concrete.
