History

The Paris Marathon has a rich history dating back to its first edition in 1896, although the modern version of the race as we know it today was relaunched in 1976. Since then, the event has experienced exponential growth, both in terms of participation and international renown.

Route

The Paris Marathon course is renowned for its beauty, offering runners the unique opportunity to pass through some of the city's most iconic sites. The race typically starts on the Avenue des Champs-Élysées, goes down to the Place de la Concorde, passes by the Louvre, runs along the Seine riverbanks, crosses historic monuments such as the Eiffel Tower and the Palace of Versailles, before finishing on Avenue Foch. This course not only challenges the runners with its elevation changes but also allows them to experience an unparalleled tourist experience.

Records

  • Among men, the course record is held by Elisha Rotich from Kenya who set a new benchmark in 2021 with a time of 2 hours, 4 minutes, and 21 seconds.
  • Among women, the record is held by Purity Rionoripo, also from Kenya, with a time of 2 hours, 20 minutes, and 55 seconds, achieved in 2017.
