Definition
A torch race, or relay, is a symbolic procession where a flame is carried from one location to another by multiple participants. πββοΈ It signifies continuity, tradition, and the passing on of values or ideals. Think of it like a human-powered spark! The flame is usually lit at a significant location (like Olympia for the Olympic Games) and transported to the event's venue. Unlike a sprint, it's a team effort focused on collaboration. It is often a spectacle of unity and shared purpose. π₯
