The Mayor of London Boris Johnson has received the Olympic flag in Beijing as the focus now turns to the Lee Valley for 2012.
A London Olympic flag was due to be raised on the flagpole at the Lee Valley Ice Centre alongside Lea Bridge this afternoon.
The Olympic venues are beside the Lea Valley Walk at Waltham Abbey and between Hackney Marshes and Bow where walkers can look forward to following progress over the next four years.
