:-) thank you sweets. I am pretty proud of myself too. I guess it was just the right day for it! Somedays going with your gut is the answer.

And a great one at that! Fantastic time & thanks for sharing the pictures! I definitely want to do the Paris next year- would you recommend it?

Cipriana, i was afraid it was going to be too crowded with 40K runners, but that was a no issue in the end. Lots of space and amazing energy. Overall the route is gorgeous, with runs in two of the biggest parks and quite some incline. The only thing worth mentioning as a possible negative is running in a few tunnels; the longest being over 1k. But someone launched a screaming wave and it was gripping. Best organization I've seen with water/bananas/raisins/oranges/other for everyone. Last but not least, we were lucky with great weather today, but that's never guaranteed in Paris at this time of the year. Definitely recommended.

Firstly a job well done. Secondly great photos...made me feel like I was there. A bit of trivia about this run....Joe Strummer from the clash turned up and ran it when he was officially missing.
