Yup, that looks like it might be it.

http://seattlepi.nwsource.com/olympics/373569_factsrail07.html

"The longest torch relay in the history of the games – over five continents with politically sensitive stops in Taiwan and Tibet – covered 85,000 miles. It began on March 25 in Greece and wound across Asia, Europe, the Americas, Africa and back to Asia."
