Like I said - Marathon Pour Tous | @marathon_pour_tous_community was, at times, fucking lit. But when it wasn’t? Well, the sights of Paris were lit enough for moi.

Marathon Pour Tous | @marathon_pour_tous_community, a marathon for all that runs the same course as the Olympians did in Paris 2024 | @paris2024 was, quite possibly, the hardest marathon I’ve ever run. Everything you heard about this course was true - staggering uphills with equally insane downhills, topped with a 10% climb over the course of an entire kilometer at the 28K mark. I’m currently in the middle of training for a goal marathon so this one was essentially a glorified long run. As such, I didn’t really race it but I also didn’t drop it down to party pace. The thinking went “let’s go entirely on feel and see where we’re at after that last horrendous climb.

So some of you have already guessed it but, yes, I’m here in Paris to run Marathon Pour Tous | @marathon_pour_tous_community tonight. Bib number 6300 and you can track at https://paris-mpt.r.mikatiming.de/2024/?lang=EN_CAP&pid=tracking&pidp=tracking. No confirmation yet that you can hear me questioning my life choices as I tackle a 10% grade uphill.
