In addition to the 7,200 torchbearers selected, 4,300 torchbearers were selected through programs involving the Olympic family, which includes sponsors, providers, Olympians and other athletes from several U.S. Olympic national governing bodies.

Organizers originally planned to announce the list of torchbearers on Sept. 17 in New York. Now, organizers say the torch relay will be linked to the terrorist tragedy, by naming 100 torchbearers to represent the heroes of September 11.

Also, when the relay goes through New York City, Washington D.C. and Pennsylvania, commemorative events will be held there.
