On Sep. 28, the prefecture rekindled the countdown as the organizing committee announced revised details for the delayed torch relay. The torch would begin its Kyushu journey from Oita (Apr. 23~24,) travel through different prefectures until it reaches Fukuoka. While the committee intends to keep the original route, it is considering downscaling celebration events at each spot. Source: Tokyo 2020 / Mainichi
