April 2024

Abeje Ayana lights up the City of Light
The crisp morning air, scattered drops of rain and wind at the start did nothing to dampen the mood of the Elite runners of the 46thSchneider Electric Marathon de Paris. Guye Adola(ETH), the 22ndfastest marathoner of all time, with a personal best of 2:03:46, quickly broke away with two pacemakers while a chase groupof ten units or sohoveredabout a hundred metres back. Shortly after km10, Adeledelew Mamo(ETH) jumped across to his compatriot Guye Adola, followed by the rest of the favourites in the Bois de Vincennes before the halfway point (1:03:13). Occasional headwinds made the return trip to Paris, running from east to west on the quays of the Seine, harder than usual. Seven runners were still in contentionat km30 (1:30:32). Guye Adolausedthe tough course to up the pace and jettisoncompetitors from the lead group. By the time the race got tokm35 (1:45:50), the contenders had been thinned down to Kenya's Josphat Boitand the Ethiopians Guye Adola, Abeje Ayanaand Adeledelew Mamo. Running his first marathon, the astonishingAbeje Ayanalaunched a scorching attack with 5km to go that left Guye Adolain the dust and turned out to be the decisive move. Abeje Ayana, seemingly coming out of nowhere, used the sloping roads inthe brand-new finale to pad his lead and take a prestigious win in 2:07:15 in his first run over the legendary distance. His countryman Guye Adolafended off Kenya's Josphat Boitto hold onto second place in 2:07:35. Boitrounded out the podium in 2:07:40.

Helah Kiprop in a nail-biting finish
The Elite women put on an amazing race with a spectacular denouement. Seven competitors were still in the mix with 6km to go. The gradients near the exit from the Bois de Boulogne shook off the weakest of the pretenders, leaving the Ethiopians Yeshi Chekole, Firkte Weretaand Atalel Anmut to vie for victory with the Kenyans Winfridah Mosetiand Helah Kiprop. The tension in the final kilometre was so thick one could almost cut it with a knife, with no candidate managing to make the difference. It all came down to a mad dash to the line amid the roaring crowds in Avenue Foch. The grizzled Helah Kiprop, who claimed silver in the 2015World Championships, gold in Tokyo2016 and first place in Copenhagen last year, took the spoils in 2:23:19 after an extraordinary last-minute effort: "The finish was incredible. I knew I could make it if I stayed in the lead group.The wind made it hard.I hope to return to Paris next year, but for the Olympics." The Kenyan edged outEthiopia's Atalel Anmut, who finished in the same second (2:23:19), while Firkte Weretaclinched third place in 2:23:22.

David Weir wins the wheelchair marathon as Julien Casoli takes his third French championship in a row
Another sprint royal played out in the wheelchair marathon, with the 2012Paralympic gold medallistDavid Weirup against the surprising Dutchman Geert Schipper. The Briton emerged victorious in a time of 1:34:23, picking up a second triumph in Paris after his first in 2017, but Geert Schippermade sure the race went down to the wire:"Schipper was incredible. It was his first marathon, he comes from triathlon and he put up a real fight. He surprised me big time." The Frenchman Julien Casolifaded in the last 4km and had to settle for third place in 1:35:42, but it was still good enough for a third consecutive French national title in the Schneider Electric Marathon de Paris: "The race was hard, especially the end, with the cobblestones, the wind and all that. I just didn't have it in me this year, but I gave it my all."

NEW RECORDS FOR THE 2022 EDITION

April 3rd 2022

  • Kenyan Judith Jeptum sets a new course record of 2:19:48 in the women's race (beating Purity Rionoripo's record of 2:20:55 from 2017)
  • Ethiopian Deso Gelmisa wins in 2:05:07
  • Morhad Amdouni establishes a new French record of 2:05:22 (beating Benoit Zwierzchiewski's record of 2:06:36 from 2003)
  • Julien Casoli (1:38:36) takes the wheelchair race for the fifth time in Paris and is crowned French champion again
  • 46th edition of the Schneider Electric Marathon de Paris scheduled for 2 April 2023.

Kenyan Judith Jeptum sets a new course record and personal best

The favourites started the women's race at a blistering pace. Judith Jeptum (KEN), Gladys Chepkurui (KEN), Beyenu Degefa (ETH) and Besu Sado (ETH) led from the front with two pacemakers. The lead group went through the 10-kilometre mark in 32:22, setting them on course for a finish under 2:17. Besu Sado was the first to crack some time before the field wrapped up the first half marathon in 1:08:30. Approaching km 28, Judith Jeptum left her rivals in the dust with a devastating attack and never looked back. This solo move ended in another prestigious win for the Kenyan winner of last year's Abu Dhabi Marathon, who crossed the finish line in 2:19:49, beating her own personal best by close to 3 minutes and setting a new record in the women's Schneider Electric Marathon de Paris: "It was hard and very cold, too cold for me. I spent a long time alone at the front, but I stayed strong in the final 15 kilometres. Beating the record here in Paris is a real treat. A shout-out to everyone who helped me to prepare, especially my coach and training partners."

Ethiopian Deso Gelmisa sprints to victory

The Schneider Electric Marathon de Paris got under way in chilly (2 °C) yet sunny conditions. Eager to warm up a bit, the lead group started at a pace on course for a shade over 2:05 and was still rather large when the race hit the half marathon mark in 1:02:31, featuring 13 athletes including 2 pacemakers, among which stood out the Kenyan and Ethiopian favourites and Morhad Amdouni. The Frenchman, eighth in Paris in 2019, seemed on the right track to achieving his goal of smashing Benoit Zwierzchiewski's French record of 2:06:36, established in Paris in 2003. Seifu Tura (ETH) lit the fireworks at km 33, dragging compatriots Abeyneh Degu (ETH) and Deso Gelmisa (ETH) with him together with Morhad Amdouni as the other men in the group were ejected from the back one at a time. Seifu Tura used the slope of Boulevard Suchet near km 34 as a springboard for another hard-hitting move that failed to dislodge Deso Gelmisa but succeeded in dropping Morhad Amdouni, although the Frenchman easily managed to stay ahead of Abeyneh Degu in the fight for third place. As the ground heated up under the sun, so did the race. Deso Gelmisa produced a burst of speed to take the spoils in 2:05:07, three seconds ahead of Seifu Tura, his opponent in the sprint in Avenue Foch. At the finish, Deso Gelmisa's heart was as warm as his bones were chilled. "I'm really pleased with this win, although I felt cold for most of the race, especially in the first 10 kilometres. It wasn't easy, but my training in Ethiopia paid off.»

Morhad Amdouni clinches third place and the French record

Frenchman Morhad Amdouni entered the race aiming to at least improve his own personal best of 2:09:14, which he set in Paris in 2019, but also with the loftier goal of breaking the French record. Seeing him take his first strides in the lead group on course for a time just over 2:05, it quickly became clear that Morhad Amdouni was in spectacular form today. Morhad Amdouni was unfazed when the Ethiopians made a selection and kept going even when he was dropped with 6 or 7 kilometres to go. A paragon of solidity and confidence in what was only his second marathon, Morhad Amdouni gallantly defended his third place until the finish and smashed the French record in 2:05:22: "I put the Eiffel Tower back where it belongs because, today, people are going to talk about Morhad as a marathon man. I still need more experience over this distance, but it feels great to beat the record and, what's more, to finish on the podium next to the Ethiopian regulars. There was a moment when I thought I was going to catch up with the two in front, but something was missing. I'll get better, especially at the refreshment stations, where I wasn't able to grab any pouches. This record means a lot to me, it settles the score." The former French record-holder, Benoit Zwierzchiewski, was on hand to salute Morhad Amdouni's performance and congratulate him at the finish: "I'm honoured and proud to have seen Morhad beat my French record. He's a well-rounded, exceptional athlete. It was nice to have my record stand for so long. Everything fell into place. Morhad had shown us glimpses of what he's capable of in specific training sessions and today he brought it home. Well done! He showed flashes of brilliance in the marathon. The European record is certainly not beyond his reach in the coming years. I think he could hit 2:04 on a faster course and with more experience under his belt." Morhad Amdouni's coach, Jean-Claude Vollmer, was proud of his disciple's performance: "He had his sights set on a certain time. I think he came quite close, the conditions weren't that bad. He can do even better because he missed a bunch of refreshment stations. Keep in mind that he's only taking his first steps in marathons."

Julien Casoli takes the wheelchair race for the fifth time in Paris and defends his French wheelchair marathon championship

Once again, the Frenchman was a cut above the rest as he posted a time of 1:38:36 to take the Schneider Electric Marathon de Paris, which doubled as the French disabled sports marathon championship. Julien Casoli quickly found himself alone at the front after two competitors crashed behind him in Rue de Rivoli, near km 5: "It was a real pity that the lads who were with me, including the favourites, crashed so early. Firmly ensconced in the lead by the time he reached the half marathon in 48:50, Julien Casoli cruised through the second part of the race despite the Arctic blasts sweeping the quays of the Seine, crossing the finish line clad in blue and yellow in a show of support for Ukraine. "I love the quays, but the headwind and the cold made it rather unpleasant. It was a tough race from A to Z, not really conducive to going fast."

New records for the 2022 edition

April 3rd 2022

Fellow Kenyan Purity Rionoripo had held the previous best mark of 2:20:55 since 2017. An outstanding Morhad Amdouni finished third in the men's race. His time of 2:05:22 was over a minute faster than the previous French record of 2:06:36, established by Benoit Zwierzchiewski in Paris in 2003.

BRANDT, WITH YOU ALL THE WAY.

March 10th 2022

When you’re juggling work, family, kids, sport and hobbies, sometimes every day can feel like a marathon. You need support to be able to focus on building a healthier lifestyle and having a partner by your side can make all the difference. 

For over 60 years, Brandt has been that partner in the kitchen. We’ve been supporting the everyday marathon runners with their everyday challenges, providing them with well-developed, high-performing technology to help them achieve their goals and to make their lives easier. 

Which is why it’s only one step from the everyday marathon to the most famous marathon in the world. And we are proud to announce that Brandt has become the Official Partner of Schneider Electric Marathon de Paris. 

As Pierre de Coubertin famously said, ‘the most important thing is not winning, but taking part’. He could have added that to take on any challenge, big or small, it’s important to be well supported all the way. 

To demonstrate this, we are setting up an innovative feature to support the last runner of the race – ‘Brandt, with you all the way’. 

Our team will be alongside the final runner during his final efforts, in a Brandt Hybrid car. Not only will our Brandt supporters provide him with encouragement and moral support, but they will also reward his fighting spirit and resilience, by offering him Brandt products.  

By choosing to support the participant who will cross the finish line last, we want to demonstrate that we are all champions, regardless of our ranking and to show that providing support goes a long way to help us meet all the challenges of everyday life.

Whether in the kitchen or on the course of one of the most beautiful marathons in the world, our brand will be positioned as a fervent supporter of those who are in search of a healthier, simpler, and more balanced lifestyle every day.

The Schneider Electric Marathon de Paris will take place on April 3, 2022, and members of our teams will take part in it.

We wish them and all the participants good luck and we look forward to seeing you there.

SAVE THE DATE: THE SCHNEIDER ELECTRIC MARATHON DE PARIS WILL TAKE PLACE THE 17th OCTOBER 2021!

November 17th 2020

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!

The Schneider Electric Marathon de Paris and the Paris Breakfast Run 2020 are cancelled. See you in 2021.

August 12th 2020

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.

News of Schneider Electric Marathon de Paris

June 5th 2020

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.

Salon du Running becomes Run Experience in 2020

February 6th 2020

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.

49 155 runners at the start of the Schneider Electric Marathon de Paris 2019!

April 14th 2019

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

  • Abrha Milaw takes the throne
    Paul Lonyangata's reign in the Schneider Electric Marathon de Paris is over. The Kenyan runner, undefeated since 2017, was unable to stop Ethiopian Abrha Milaw from taking the crown. Victory was only decided at the end of a controlled and suspenseful race. There were still six runners in contention with less than 6 km to go, including top favourites Paul Lonyangata and Ethiopian Asefa Mengistu. However, it was another Ethiopian, 30-year-old Abrha Milaw, who blew up the leading group almost without breaking a sweat. The winner of the last Marathon des Alpes Maritimes made his move at km 39 km, as the race went past the Fondation Louis Vuitton. Neither Lonyangata, who was running with a right forearm splint, nor Mengistu was able to respond to his vicious attack. Milaw crossed the finish line with a time of 2 h 07′05″, 20 seconds ahead of runner-up Abraha Mengistu and 24 seconds ahead of the winner of the two previous editions, Paul Lonyangata.
  • Gelete Burka by a whisker
    The ladies managed to beat the elite men to the line after starting with a margin of 16′39″. The women's race went down to the wire. The win was still up in the air 30 km into the race, with three Ethiopians, Gelete Burka, Azmera Abreha and Azmera Gebru, and Kenyan Sally Chepyego locked in a fierce battle. Geleta Burka upped the pace with just one kilometre to go to drop her rivals. Only Gebru managed to follow at the beginning, only to crack and watch from behind as the winner of the 2018 Ottawa Marathon surged to her first victory in Paris with a time of 2 h 22′47″. The 10,000 m silver medallist in the 2015 World Championships beat Azmera Gebru by 5 seconds. Azmera Abreha took the bottom step of the podium, 48 seconds back.

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.


Instant reactions

  • Gelete Burka:
    "I'm delighted to add my name to the list of winners of the Schneider Electric Marathon de Paris. I suffered in the bitter cold this morning, but I managed to focus on my goal and on getting this victory I wanted so badly."
  • Abrha Milaw:
    "It was a complicated race with a strong field. I was able to stick to my plan. I stayed with the favourites and then went for it with every ounce of energy I had left."
  • Clémence Calvin:
    "I held on until the end. Paris gave us the welcome I expected. I want to thank Paris, France, the Federation and everyone who's supported me. The boiling lava of Auvergne runs through my veins."


See you on 5 April 2020 for the 44th edition of the Schneider Electric Marathon de Paris.

Pitch Marathoon's : Congrats toon's

April 13th 2019

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!

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 under the sun of Paris

    April 8th 2018

    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.

    A double for Lonyangata and a surprise victory for Saina

    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!

    Pitch Marathoon's : Congrats toon's

    April 7th 2018

    More than seven hundred 5 to 10 years old children came together this morning 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 two races, a 1.2k race for 5 to 7 years old and a 2.2k race for 8 to 10 years old.

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

    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 breakfast was served to everyone present.

    3,000 runners at the Paris Breakfast Run

    April 7th 2018

    Running while Paris is still asleep!

    This morning 3,000 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. 70 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!

    D-1: Are you ready?

    April 7th 2018

    Tomorrow it’s the big day! The 42th edition of the Schneider Electric Paris Marathon will set off at 8.20am on the Avenue des Champs-Elysées!

    If you haven't picked up your race number yet, we remind you that the Salon du Running (Parc des Expositions Porte de Versailles : subway Line 12, Porte de Versailles stop) closes its doors today at 7pm. Don’t forget to bring your essential documents with you: a proof of identity, your notification letter as well as a medical certificate.

    Take advantage of the last hours before the start to enjoy the pleasure that awaits you: running 42.195km in the most beautiful city in the world. Here are some tips the day before the marathon:

    Discover the SOcial Corner by Schneider Electric

    • Drink throughout the day and eat early (12 hours before you set off) focusing on slow-burning carbohydrates.
    • Make sure your equipment is adapted to the race. N.B.: don’t run with new shoes.
    • Plan to arrive on the Champs-Elysées tomorrow at least 45 minutes before your start. It’s better to take the subway than any other means of transport (line 1, George V or Charles-de-Gaulle stops).
    • Go over your race plan in your head without forgetting the most important thing: the pleasure of running.

    The weather forecast is good and the temperature will be quite warm for the season. Don’t forget to wear spring clothing (shorts and a short-sleeved shirt) and drink at each feeding station.

    Tomorrow, Paris will be yours. And there will be 55,000 of you who will enjoy a historical sporting and unifying experience as you give it your all.

    Be proud of the journey you are about to undertake.
    You are already champions!

    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."

    On the schedule of this Pitch Marathoon's: a village with many activities (make-up, a brass band, a clown, etc.) and two races, a 1.2k race for 5 to 7 year-olds and a 2.2k race for 8 to 10 year-olds.

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

    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 breakfast was served to everyone present.

    Congratulations toon's!

    3,000 participants at the Paris Breakfast Run!

    April 8th 2017

    Running while Paris is still asleep!

    This morning 3,000 runners took advantage of a rare privilege. 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. 70 nations were represented in total.

    Tomorrow it’s the big day: the Schneider Electric Marathon de Paris will be setting off at 8.20am on the Avenue des Champs-Elysées!

    D-1: are you ready?

    April 8th 2017

    Tomorrow it’s the big day! The 41st edition of the Schneider Electric Paris Marathon will set off at 8.20am on the Avenue des Champs-Elysées!

    If you haven't picked up your race number yet, we remind you that the Salon du Running – located at the Porte de Versailles’ Parc des Expositions (subway Line 12, Porte de Versailles stop) closes its doors today at 7pm. Don’t forget to bring your essential documents with you: a proof of identity, your notification letter as well as a medical certificate.

    Take advantage of the last hours before the start to enjoy the pleasure that awaits you: running 42.195km in the most beautiful city in the world. Here are some tips the day before the marathon:

    • Drink throughout the day and eat early (12 hours before you set off) focusing on slow-burning carbohydrates.
    • Make sure your equipment is adapted to the race. N.B.: don’t run with new shoes.
    • Plan to arrive on the Champs-Elysées tomorrow at least 45 minutes before your start. It’s better to take the subway than any other means of transport (line 1, George V or Charles-de-Gaulle stops).
    • Go over your race plan in your head without forgetting the most important thing: the pleasure of running.

    The weather forecast is good and the temperature will be quite warm for the season. Don’t forget to wear spring clothing (shorts and a short-sleeved shirt) and drink at each feeding station.


    Tomorrow, Paris will be yours. And there will be 57,000 of you who will enjoy a historical sporting and unifying experience as you give it your all.

    Be proud of the journey you are about to undertake.
    You are already champions!

    In the heart of the pack

    April 12th 2015

    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.”

    There were 41,342 of you!

    April 12th 2015

    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!

    Marathon & Sun : tips

    April 11th 2015

    Suitable clothing, hydratation & sodium

    • Wear suitable clothing (no tights or long sleeves)
    • Make sure your drink enough water the day before the race and before the start (add salt to your meal & drinks)
    • Be reasonable and adapt your pace: the main objective is to finish the race

    Keep a bottle of water with you to hydrate yourself and take advantage of the sponging areas every 5km to cool down your face (remember to take the sponge that is placed in your runner’s bag with you)

    Have a great race!

    April 11th 2015

    Tomorrow’s the big day!

    And they're off! The start of the 39th Schneider Electric Paris Marathon will take place tomorrow at 8.54am on the Avenue des Champs-Elysées.

    Here’s some advice before the start:

    • Don't doubt your ability to run the entire 42.195km. Everything you've learned during your training won't be lost in the pre-race nerves!
    • Stick to the race plan that you have developed throughout your training and check during the first few kilometres that you are not running too quickly.
    • Pay attention to your refreshments and hydrate yourself meticulously by drinking water every five kilometres. It will be relatively hot tomorrow on race day...
    • Soak up the festive atmosphere of this marathon in the most beautiful city in the world and really enjoy running.

    Tomorrow, Paris will be at your feet. Enjoy being part of this event alongside more than 50,000 other runners.

     

    We look forward to seeing you at the finish.

    The logistics of the big day

    April 10th 2015

    Now it's over to you!

    The big day is approaching and it’s time to check the final details for your participation in the Schneider Electric Paris Marathon.

    In particular:

    • What you are going to wear during the race and what you are going to leave at the left luggage area (or what you will get rid of before you go into the starting area). Météo France is forecasting dry, warm weather. Take that into account!
    • The time it will take you to get to the Champs-Elysées using public transport (mainly Line 1 of the subway - George V or Charles-de-Gaulle-Etoile stops).
    • The number of effort gels you will bring. Stick to the refreshment schedule you have tested during your long training sessions. Don't change anything at the last minute...

    At 8.45am on Sunday, more than 50,000 competitors will cross the start line of the Schneider Electric Paris Marathon to run 42.195km in the most beautiful city in the world.

    Enjoy being one of them!
