Sophie Wipf 

Sophie Wipf will carry the Olympic Torch. This is her history:

Above all, Sophie is a sportswoman at heart, from a family where sport is a genuine passion. After a decade dedicated to artistic gymnastics, she went on to devote several years to horse-riding, sharing a deep bond with her horse, while participating in cross-fit almost daily.

Sophie then turned to climbing, first on cliffs and then on boulders, putting her heart and soul into the activity every weekend, under the watchful eye of her partner and her 18-month-old daughter. For Sophie, carrying the Olympic Torch is the highest of honours. Her commitment and determination can be seen in both her career as a psychomotricity therapist, where she helps the development of children with disabilities, and in her day-to-day family life.
