00:00It was just last week that we stood in ancient Olympia and experienced the timeless ritual of the flame lighting ceremony.
00:11For me, it was the first time I got to do this as president of the International Olympic Committee.
00:17It was an incredible moment that filled me with so many emotions.
00:23Gratitude for our past, hope for our future,
00:27and inspiration for what unites us.
00:33Today, seeing this flame arrive here in Rome,
00:38I feel that same emotion all over again.
00:43But this time, it is mixed with the warmth and the energy of the Italian spirit.
00:49The Olympic flame is arriving to a nation that lives and breathes sport.
00:56Bella Italia.
00:57Where passion shines through in everything that you do.
01:02As an athlete, I got to experience this firsthand when I competed in 2009 at the World Championships here in Rome.
01:11It still, to this day, is one of my most memorable World Championships of my entire career.
01:18As the torch-bearer, as the torch-bearer begins this journey across the beautiful country of Italy,
01:25it will connect millions of Italians, from the Alps to Sicily, from the biggest cities to the smallest villages.
01:34Each torch-bearer will carry a piece of Italy's spirit, your creativity, your courage, your heritage, and your joy and passion for life.
