1908 During the 4th London Olympic Games, at a religious ceremony held in St. Paul's Cathedral in London, the British Archbishop Peter said a famous saying that has been widely praised so far: "The important thing in the Olympic Games is not victory, but participation." This sentence deeply touched Coubertin who was present at that time, so he decided to use this sentence as one of the slogans of the Olympic Movement.

After the marathon of the 4th Olympic Games began, Italian candy merchant Dorlando petrie kept ahead and was the first to enter the stadium. Unfortunately, I was exhausted and unconscious at that time. First of all, I ran in the wrong direction. Later, I fell to the ground several times because of fatigue, but I struggled to get up every time. At the last 15 meter from the finish line, I fell down again. I didn't get up again, and with the help of two doctors, I reached the finish line. Due to the help of others in the competition, Petrie was disqualified from winning the gold medal. However, in recognition of petrie's enterprising spirit, the IOC still awarded the 1 Gold Cup just like the champion. It is precisely because of his fighting spirit that Archbishop Peter expressed the feeling of "focusing on participation", believing that the spirit of tenacious enterprising and fighting participation is closer to the essence of the Olympic Movement than winning honor.
