On it's ongoing journey through India The Baton arrived at Nainital on the morning of 7th July. The Queen’s Baton 2010 Delhi received a resounding welcome at picturesque hill station Nainital (Uttarakhand).

Among thousands of citizens of Nainital, the officials of Run 2 Live were present to greet the The Queen’s Baton 2010 Delhi.

Our very own Mr. Harish Tiwari (Olympian runner) was one of the select few to relay the The Queen’s Baton 2010 Delhi around the city. It was a very proud moment for the people of Nainital and members of Run 2 Live.

Queen's Baton Relay

The Queen's Baton Relay, similar to the Olympic Torch Relay, is a relay around the world held prior to the beginning of the Commonwealth Games. The Baton carries a message from the Head of the Commonwealth, currently Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.
The Relay traditionally begins at Buckingham Palace in London as a part of the city's Commonwealth Day festivities.

The Queen entrusts the baton to the first relay runner. At the Opening Ceremony of the Games, the final relay runner hands the baton back to the Queen or her representative, who reads the message aloud to officially open the Games.

About the Baton

The baton contained 71 lights on the front, representing the 71 member nations of the Commonwealth Games Federation.
A video camera built into the front of the baton recorded continuously as the baton travelled, and a GPS tracker was fitted, so that the baton's location could be viewed live on the Commonwealth Games Website.

The 2010 Queen's Baton was built from Aluminium, Gold with a 18 Carat gold leaf carrying the Queen's message.
