About Run with the LAW
Run with the LAW began on 19 March and concluded on 19 April 2010 when the Flame of Hope was used to ignite the cauldron to officially open the Special Olympics Australia National Games. By this point police officers and athletes had carried the torch through 43 cities across six states and territories in 29 days. Funds raised from Run with the LAW help Special Olympics continue running 11,000 weekly sports sessions for people with an intellectual disability across 250 sports clubs in Australia. It also helps to promote equality, acceptance and friendship of people with an intellectual disability whose lives can be transformed through regular sports opportunities.
