What was the award given to Kenyan athletes at the closing of the Olympic Games?

Olympic men's marathon.

The Olympics always save the marathon for the last day, and the winners of the marathon must be awarded at a grand closing ceremony. The reason why there is so much respect for the sport is because it is a symbol of the Olympic Games.

It was the legend of the marathon that initially inspired and laid the foundation of the Olympic faith and forged her soul. There are various sports World Cups and championships in the world every year, why do people have the Olympics? It is because she expresses an ideal through sports, a spiritual quest that transcends economic, political and geographical concepts.

The marathon teaches people that for a true Olympic champion, the most important thing is not to win a gold medal, but to develop a personality as heavy and bright as gold. Loyalty, mutual assistance, fraternity, unity, perseverance, with incredible character and strength, overcoming unimaginable difficulties and obstacles on the road to success.

Towards the end of the Olympic Games, everyone is still gathered under the banner of the five rings, and the true Olympic spirit is being passed on to us.

Men's marathon.

For the first time in history, the medal ceremony for the men's marathon, the last event of the Games, was held at the closing ceremony, which was another innovation for the Athens Games. In the eyes of the host Greeks, the marathon is one of the "souls" of the Olympic Games, and the award of awards to marathon runners at the closing ceremony is a symbol of the Olympic homecoming.

Men's marathon.

Because this is the oldest project.

Olympic awards.

The awards presented at the award ceremony include the champion, the runner-up and the third runner-up.

The Olympic Award Ceremony is the highest honor for the top three winners in each event of the Olympic Games, and it is also the most exciting ceremony for athletes. It must be held in accordance with the protocol established by the IOC: during the Olympic Games, the medal shall be awarded by the President of the IOC (or a member of his choosing) in the company of the President of the International Federation concerned (or his representative).

How to present the awards: The top three athletes wear formal attire or sportswear on the podium, facing the first seat. The champion stands slightly higher and then announces their name.

The flag of the champion delegation shall be raised from the ** flagpole, and the flags of the second and third place delegations shall be raised from the flagpole immediately to the right and left of the ** flagpole, respectively. When the national anthem of the champion delegation is played, the medal recipient should face the flag. The medal ceremony was solemn, grand and exciting, and many athletes could not help but shed tears as they watched the national flag rise.

At the Olympics, of course, there were only 123.

In recognition of his outstanding contribution to education, culture and peace through sports, and in recognition of his Olympic spirit, the Olympic Laureate was awarded to the Olympic champion, the great Olympic philanthropist Mr. Kip Kaino.
