Countdown
The local organising committee of the IAAF World Championships London 2017 has published the 3rd Official Bulletin for the championships.
The IAAF World Championships London 2017 will be staged at The Stadium within Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, between 4-13 August 2017.
The stadium was the main venue for the London 2012 Olympic Games and has also hosted the IAAF Diamnond League meeting in London in recent years.
"With this the third and final Official Bulletin, we are fast approaching the start of the 16th edition of the championships," said IAAF President Sebastian Coe. "Youth engagement is very much the focus of the IAAF World Championships London 2017. Since the last bulletin in December, the official mascot design competition has been launched by 2012 Olympic heptathlon champion Jessica Ennis-Hill. More recently we have seen the launch of new dedicated digital platforms for the IAAF World Championships London 2017."
"I would like to express my thanks to the local organising committee, the official partners, suppliers and broadcasters of the IAAF World Athletics Series, and the national suppliers of the IAAF World Championships London 2017 for their support. I leave the final mention to the 4000 volunteers, the aptly named ‘runners’, without whose enthusiasm and selfless dedication no sports event let alone a global competition of the size of our championships could function"
