hammer thrower, bronze medalist at the Beijing games in 2008, is very happy with this edition in France. “The young people, if they know that there is an Olympic athlete who is training there, next door, in the room that I use perhaps every week, it is true that it makes Something.” It might even create a real heritage of the 2024 Olympic Games according to her.
It’s not Paris, it’s France 2024 I want to say!
Although, for her, the athletes will have little time for sightseeing, the event could create the effervescence in Mayenne. “For the population on site, the passage of the Olympic flame, by all the municipalities labeled playgrounds can also provide moments of celebration! It’s not Paris, it’s France 2024 I want to say!”
