31、them all. His job is understandable as it is his leadership which has been the key to helping London win sports biggest prize. For so long the London bid was regarded as way off the pace and when the five candidate cities were originally shortlisted, London was rated(排在 )third behind Paris and Madri
32、d. And Paris was universally regarded as such strong favorites that the competition was seen as effectively.

But Coe saved his finest masterstroke for the closing moments of the campaign when he delivered a very personal speech to IOC d
37、elegates during Londons final presentation in Singapore. His speech , in the final moments of an incredibly close battle, turned the race in Londons favour. Before the result was announced Coe had said, “If we win Ill carry the flame home; if we lose Ill carry the can.” So many times in his athletic
38、s career he was on the shoulders of his rivals on the final bend before producing his trademark kick for home to claim victory.
