My wife and our sons Cédric and Alexandre joined me for my 489th marathon and 12th Paris Marathon. This marathon is first of three official races I’ve selected for the celebration of my 70 years.
I’ve done the following 12 editions of the Paris Marathon:
  • The 2011 Paris Marathon which I ran with sneakers in 3:46:45.
  • The 2013 Paris Marathon which I ran with sneakers in 3:56:51.
  • The 2014 Paris Marathon which I ran with sneakers in 3:54:35.
  • The 2015 Paris Marathon which I ran with minimalist shoes in 3:49:47.
  • The 2016 Paris Marathon which I ran barefoot in 4:27:49.
  • The 2018 Paris Marathon which I ran barefoot in 3:54:17.
