Because each step counts for our well-being and to preserving the environment, the Schneider Electric Paris marathon and Schneider Electric launch the Green Runners movement.
Let's change things, together!
We can’t wait to see you again in the streets of Paris for an Autumn Marathon! We’ve decided to shift the date to maximise the chances of running together.
Official signups open in Spring 2021!
After having tried everything to maintain the event, we, alongside the Ville de Paris, feel obliged to cancel the 2020 edition of the Schneider Electric Marathon de Paris and the Paris Breakfast Run. Faced with the difficulty that many runners, especially those coming from abroad, had in making themselves available for the 14th / 15th November, it was decided that it would be better and simpler for those concerned if we organised the Schneider Electric Marathon de Paris in 2021. Evidently, there will be great disappointment amongst those who have sacrificed time training for what had become an Autumn marathon. Everyone at the Schneider Electric Marathon de Paris and the Paris Breakfast Run, from the organizational teams to the faithful event partners, share this disappointment, with so much work having been put in.
We will be working side-by-side with the Ville de Paris to put on a 2021 edition that brings together the most passionate runners on the most beautiful streets in the world.
Those who were signed up for this year’s edition are, if they wish, already signed up for the 2021 edition. If not, they will benefit from a voucher, the value of which being equal to however much was spent on the bib and extra options or a reimbursement after a period of 18 months.
The Ville de Paris, the partners and ourselves would like to warmly thank all those who had planned to run in 2020 for their passion. We cannot wait to see you again and run through the magnificent Paris streets together.
After a long few months in lockdown, we sincerely hope that all is well with you and those close to you and that you’ve been able to begin readjusting to normality. With a bit of luck, you will have been able to do some sort of physical activity each week during the lockdown. We don’t know about you but we can’t wait for everything to go back to normal so we can put our fruits of our training to the test in a timed course.
As you know, the COVID-19 public health crisis has profoundly impacted sport, on an amateur and professional level. A.S.O. hasn’t been able to organise a public event since the beginning of March. Within this context, on the 7th May, the French Council of Ministers voted for a resolution detailing how we can respond to questions concerning the cancellation of our events. It means that up until the 15th September 2020, we are able to offer you a voucher for a similar event that will be valid for 18 months instead of an immediate refund.
This means that following the cancellation of the Schneider Electric Marathon de Paris on the initial date of 5th April, you will benefit from a voucher with a value equivalent to what you spent on the bib and additional options. You can use this voucher to sign up for more A.S.O. events over a period of 18 months, after which, any unspent funds on the voucher will be refunded to you.
We are currently working very hard to put these vouchers in place for the large number of riders/runners who had been preparing for our events over the last few months. In mid-July, you’ll receive an email specifying the value of your voucher and the practical information on how to claim etc. We regret any inconvenience caused by this exceptional situation and we thank you for your understanding.
In the meantime, we wish you all the best and we can’t wait to see you, even if our priority remains the health of everyone.
We hope to see you soon!

After the last-minute decision to move the Harmonie Mutuelle Semi de Paris to the 6th September 2020, we have, with the agreement of the Mairie de Paris, decided to move the Schneider Electric Marathon de Paris to Sunday 18th October.
This decision to postpone the event has been taken to allow the competitors the chance to anticipate any changes and make their arrangements with regards to the current Coronavirus epidemic and following the latest decisions made by the French government. The Amaury Sport Organisation team is already working to put on an autumn edition to remember. All of the competitors will be able to pick up their race numbers at Run Experience at Porte de Versailles from 15th to 17th October. In light of race policy and the exceptional circumstances, refunds will not be available because of the postponement of the race to October. You will receive all of the practical information 12th March.
We will be right alongside you all throughout the summer so you can reap the fruits of your winter training program and you will be ready to take on the autumn challenge.

Immediately after the cancellation of the Harmonie Mutuelle Semi de Paris 48 hours before the start, the teams from the Mairie de Paris and the Amaury Sport Organisation came together to find a new date for the event. We are pleased to announce that the Harmonie Mutuelle Semi de Paris 2020 will take place on Sunday 6th September.
Regarding the Schneider Electric Marathon de Paris, we have reached an agreement with the Mairie de Paris to move the Schneider Electric Marathon de Paris to the 18th October with the aim of avoiding any last-minute cancellation. The practical changes concerning these two events will be communicated to the competitors shortly.
Whether you're a runner, travelling with a runner or here to support one, come and join our great celebration of running in the Paris Breakfast Run, an untimed 5 km run through the heart of Paris. Finishers will be rewarded with breakfast at the foot of the Eiffel Tower…
The 2020 edition has attracted more people than ever! A record-breaking 65,000 runners from 150 countries will make this the second biggest marathon on Earth. Over 40% of you will be tackling the fabled distance for the first time on 5 April…
This year, the Schneider Electric Marathon de Paris is proud to be hosting the French Disabled Sport Championships over the mythical distance for the first time. Whether you’re in a racing wheelchair or accompanied by your guide (visually-impaired athlete), Paris awaits you!
A new concept for a new decade. The Salon du Running has evolved into Run Experience, a massive celebration of the sport in all shapes and colours, from regular running to trail running and triathlon. The new format will set up camp in the heart of Paris Expo Porte de Versailles just a few days before the 44th edition of the Schneider Electric Marathon de Paris.
The Salon du Running has evolved into Run Experience to offer visitors a more holistic experience. Run Experience boasts over 200 exhibitors on a surface area of 26,500 m², plunging runners who come to pick up their race numbers and other visitors who practise running into a new atmosphere focused on testing new products and simply having fun.
Run Experience has to be THE big event for runners of all levels —from weekend warriors to marathon runners— and all the stakeholders in the world of running. A forum for exchanges that brings running to life in every dimension: product tests in real-life conditions, conferences, films, meet and greets with celebrities and a place where running lovers will find equipment, gear, the latest products to hit the market, tips from pros, accessories, services and the newest trends.
The Running Arena, a 200-metre track set up in the heart of the venue —half as long as an actual running track— will be the focal point for the activities of Run Experience in 2020. It is a multi-surface test track on which all visitors can discover and get to grips with products from all the brands present at the show free of charge. A DJ will fill the centre of this area with sick beats while visitors enjoy a wide range of activities (yoga, fitness, etc.) and discoveries. "Five major players will set up shop close to the arena: ASICS, Hoka One One, Salomon, On and Alta. These brands will have direct access to the test track and give visitors an exclusive experience with product tests", explains Charles Mabille, who oversees Run Experience.
The new version of the event plunges visitors into the heart of running, an iconic sport that millions of people in France live and breathe every day! A wide range of well-being areas also awaits, with massages, physiotherapy assessments, chiropodists, coaches and more. There will also be two dedicated areas: one for trail running, with a test track, and another for triathlon, with a transition area featuring a swimming pool. Finally, visitors will get to attend conferences punctuated by numerous talks and inspiring meet and greets with athletes and experts.

Abrha Milaw and Gelete Burka are the winners
Paul Lonyangata will have to wait to become the first three-time winner of the Schneider Electric Marathon de Paris. 49,155 runners started the 43rd edition, with the Kenyan winner of the previous two editions capitulating to Abrha Milaw at the end of the race. Gelete Burka made it a double for Ethiopia, crossing the finish line ahead of the men (who had started 16′39″ later) to take victory in the women's race. French runners also shone today, with Clémence Calvin (fourth) rising to high expectations to smash Christelle Daunay's national record (2 h 24′22″) and Morhad Amdouni breaking the 2 h 10 barrier in his marathon debut.
Key points
• Paul Lonyangata meets his nemesis
• Gelete Burka crosses the finish line ahead of the men
• French runners shine with Calvin and Amdouni
All eyes were on her today. Clad entirely in black and hiding behind her shades, Clémence Calvin made an impressive display of fortitude to surge near the end and claim fourth place with a time of 2 h 23′41″. It was a stellar performance that smashed the French record held until now by Christelle Daunay (2 h 24′22″) and qualified Calvin for the 2020 Tokyo Olympics. Morhad Amdouni was also on a good day. Running in his first marathon, the European 10,000 m champion defied the odds to finish eighth with a time of 2 h 09′14″, also good enough for a ticket to the Olympics. Nicolas Navarro (2 h 11′53″), Florian Carvalho (2 h 12′53″) and Benjamin Malaty (2 h 13′25″) capped the French performance by taking places 10 through 12.
Frenchman Julien Casoli took his third win in the disabled race. The bronze medallist in the 5,000 metres in the London Paralympics finished the marathon in a time of 1 h 36′54″, easily taking a third victory to go along the ones he claimed in 2012 and 2015.

1500 children between 5 to 10 years old came together today for this fun and sporting occasion on the Champ de Mars.
On the schedule of this Pitch Marathoon's: a village with many activities (make-up, a brass band, a clown, etc.) and three races, a 1.2k race for 5 to 6 years old, a 1.6k race for 6 to 7 years old and a 2k race for 8 to 10 years old.
At the finish of the Pitch Marathoon’s, the young champions from ten or so nations - from New Zealand to the United States - were awarded real finishers medals. And since running whets the appetite, an enjoyable snack was served to everyone present.
In particular it provided an opportunity to enjoy a family and friendly moment around the values of sport!
Running while Paris is still asleep!
This morning 4,500 runners took advantage of a rare privilege for this new edition of the Paris Breakfast Run. A five-kilometre run in the heart of the prestigious monuments and places which epitomise Paris’s history — the Carrousel du Louvre, the Musée d’Orsay, the Pont Alexandre III, and a magnificent finish on the Champ de Mars, at the foot of the Eiffel Tower.
And the Parisian-style breakfast, served at the finish facing the Eiffel Tower, gave the French, American, British, Australian, Brazilian and Mexican marathon runners an opportunity to exchange views. 80 nations were represented in total.
Tomorrow it’s the big day: the Schneider Electric Marathon de Paris will be setting off at 8.06am (handisport) and 8.09 (Elite women) on the Avenue des Champs-Elysées!

43,537 runners took part in the 42nd edition of the Marathon de Paris on Sunday 8th April. This colourful community was made up of 26% women, 32% foreign runners (from 115 nations) and 36% of newcomers to the distance, which wound through the world’ most beautiful city in spring-like weather conditions.
The title holder, Kenyan Paul Lonyangata, claimed a double in front of his countrymen Mathew Kisorio and Ernest Ngeno. In the women’s race, Kenya’s Betsy Saina sprang a surprise to win ahead of her countrywoman Ruth Chepngetich and Ethiopian Gulume Chala.
Last year, Paul and Purity wrote one of the nicest love stories in the history of sport, by both winning in their respective categories of the Schneider Electric Marathon de Paris. Although his wife was unable to race this year due to illness, it did not stop Paul Lonyangata from claiming victory once again. Paul Lonyangata was first to cross the finishing line with a time of 2:06’25’’, 11 seconds ahead of Kisorio and 16 in front of Ngeno, his two countrymen.
Few competitors in the history of the Paris Marathon have crossed the finishing line twice as winners:Jacky Boxberger (in 1983 and 1985), Ahmed Salah (in 1984 and 1986) and the British runner Steve Brace, the only competitor to have won twice consecutively until today.
It has to be said that the battle between the six women who were still together after 33 km was a tough one. Betsy Saina win with a time of 2:22’56’’, 3 seconds in front of Kenyan Ruth Chepngetich and 12 ahead of Ethiopian Gulume Chala. The surprise was that Betsy Saina, 5th in the 10,000 m at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games and winner of a half-marathon with a time of 69’17’’, had never before completed a marathon.
Jean-Damascène Habarurena finished 17th on the Schneider Electric Marathon de Paris as the first French runner. In the reckoning for qualification for the European Championships, Habarurena did not manage to beat the time he was aiming for with a time of 2:15’13’’, one second ahead, Nicolas Navarro.
The para-sports race witnessed the Japanese competitor Hiroki Nishida claimed the first international victory of his career with a time of 1:30’02’’, in front of multiple Olympic Champion David Weir (1:30’52'') and Spaniard Jorge Madera Jimenez (1:30’53’’).
There was a wonderful surprise for the finishers after more than 6 hours of running with heavy legs: they were welcomed and congratulated by the winners of the race, Betsy Saina and Paul Lonyangata, a genuine symbol of fraternity!
For rugby lovers’ post-match celebrations, see you from 6pm! The whole event organising team looks forward to seeing you in the capital’s most emblematic bars - Rue Princesse.

In particular it provided an opportunity to enjoy a family and friendly moment around the values of sport!

And the Parisian-style breakfast, served at the finish facing the Eiffel Tower, gave the French, American, British, Australian, Brazilian and Mexican marathon runners an opportunity to exchange views. 70 nations were represented in total.

42,500 Finishers
The Schneider Electric Marathon de Paris continues to smash its own records year after year.
43,754 runners started the race this morning in a summer-like atmosphere which promised lots of sore muscles in the final few hundred metres on the cobblestones of Avenue Foch, soon left scorching hot by the runners… as well as quite a few sunburns for the approximately 250,000 spectators lining the streets of the most beautiful city in the world.
Everything fell into place for the Kenyan couple of Paul Lonyangata and Purity Rionoripo to write a rousing love story in the most beautiful marathon in the world, winning both of today's races!
It was yet more proof —not that any was needed— that Paris is the city of love. The 2017 Schneider Electric Marathon de Paris saw a married couple claim the double for the first time in history. Paul Lonyangata and Purity Rionoripo, clad in the sunny Kenyan colours, topped two 100% Kenyan podiums.
The Schneider Electric Marathon de Paris is Paul Lonyongata's third victory on the queen of distances, following his triumphs in Lisbon in 2013 and Shanghai in 2015. How about Paris? He loves the city, he knows it and he has turned it into one of his stomping grounds. Just a few weeks ago, he carved his mark on the streets of the French capital, finishing second in the Fitbit half marathon with a time of 60′40″. "This might well be my greatest victory yet, and it's also a personal record", said the 2017 winner. "I felt great, it wasn't too hot or too cold, and the organisation was perfect."
The icing on the cake came a few minutes later, when his wife claimed the women's race at an infernal pace. Purity Rionoripo even set a new Schneider Electric Marathon de Paris records of 2 h 20′55″, beating fellow Kenyans Agnes Barsosio and 2014 champion Flomena Cheyech.
37% of athletes were running their first marathon. Jean-Marc, who came from Toulouse with his running-loving wife, was one of them. The fit 40-year-old cyclo-cross aficionado clocked 3 h 17′ despite "hardly training before my first marathon. A marathon is funny, it gets tougher towards the end… Luckily enough, we'll stay here a few more days to enjoy Paris. I must admit I missed a few landmarks during the race…»
Andrea comes from Mexico. The 30-year-old took advantage of the Schneider Electric Marathon de Paris, which she finished in 3 h 21′, to spend a fortnight in Paris for her holidays. "It was an incredible moment. Thank goodness I'm in Paris, because I'd be extremely disappointed if I only thought about my performance. But it's so beautiful I'll take home wonderful memories."
For rugby lovers’ post-match celebrations, see you from 6pm in two of Paris’s districts depending on where you want to go:

Pride & emotion
For several hours the most colourful streamers were visible throughout Paris. And the capital had never celebrated the marathon in a more joyful way. Maybe it was the exceptionally clement spring weather that made you courageous. Maybe it was simply due to the quality of your training sessions which prepared you for the 42.195km course.
Kenya’s Mark Korir dominated the Schneider Electric Paris Marathon in an excellent time of 02:05:49. In the women’s category, Ethiopia’s Meseret Mengistu triumphed in a time of 02:23:36. It is also worth mentioning France’s Julien Casoli, who was the winner of the disabled race.
At the finish your drained yet delighted faces expressed the delight of all the hard work accomplished, and the pride - for some of you- of becoming a member of the marathon community. “It was my first time!” gushed Caroline. “I am thrilled.” François added with a great deal of emotion in his voice: “We are very fortunate to experience these kinds of occasions.”
A new participation record
A new participation record was established for the 39th edition of the Schneider Electric Paris Marathon. 41,342 runners including 18,000 international competitors represented 150 nations: congratulations to all of you who experienced an amazing day of sport and fraternity in the streets and avenues of the most beautiful city in the world.
Anne Hidalgo, Mayor of Paris, stated before the start of the race: “Congratulations to the ever-increasing number of runners who gather together at the start.” 25% of entrants this year were women. Among them was Tamara from South Africa. “I came with my husband and my children. They are waiting to cheer me on at the Place de la Bastille.” Manakhatan, from Mongolia, added: “This is my first visit to Paris. I am very excited about taking part in this marathon.”
Thank you to all the volunteers who helped you throughout the race: from entering the start areas to handing over the medals. And now it’s time to celebrate!
