1924 Summer Olympics
Multi-Sport Games
The 1924 Summer Olympics were held in Paris, France, the same city that had hosted in 1900, and were the last Games organized under founder Pierre de Coubertin before his retirement from the IOC presidency. The Games saw the debut of the Olympic motto Citius, Altius, Fortius and drew significantly more international attention and press coverage than earlier editions, aided by Finnish distance runner Paavo Nurmi winning five gold medals. A separate Winter Sports Week held earlier the same year in Chamonix was retroactively recognized as the first Winter Olympics.
