Olympic Games badge

How to unlock this badge?

“8,000 miles. 8,000 stories. From Land’s End to Lerwick, Lowestoft to Enniskillen, you’re somewhere on the London 2012 Olympic Torch Relay route. Find out when the Flame is coming and line the streets to cheer on your local Torchbearers! This is your moment to shine.”

Well, to unlock it, it’s not that simple.

First, like all the other partners badges, you will have to follow the Olympics’ official Foursquare channel : London2012

Then, you must check-in when the flame reaches the place nearest you.

You can also find out where the Olympic torch is going each day by visiting BBC Torch Relay page
