42 kilometres. 5 spots. 1 life-changing experience.
- Marathon de
Paris
15 April 2012
People escape to Paris to indulge in art, food, fashion, and, for the truly passionate among you, marathons for charity.
You’ll start from the Champs-Élysées going downhill as smells of fresh bread intoxicate your senses. Past the Louvre, you pour into the heart of Paris propelled ahead by promises of wine and cheese at the 35 km mark.
Now you’ll move along the Seine under a series of tunnels before emerging at the Eiffel Tower, triumphant and ready to celebrate the night away.

About Australia’s CEO Challenge
Most people do not realise that domestic violence affects 1 in 3 women living in Australia today. Every week, violence at home results in the deaths of two people, mostly women and children. Domestic violence is Australia’s hidden epidemic, the ugly issue that is difficult to face.
Australia’s CEO Challenge is a unique Australian charity working to prevent and alleviate the effects of domestic violence. Now you can support their work by running the Marathon de Paris and raising money to stop domestic violence and support women and children fleeing violent homes.
“When I came to the Refuge for the first time I learned what life could be like without the fear. I learned what it meant to live in peace and enjoy motherhood. I don’t remember having a peaceful night’s sleep until I came here...”
