Hi all, I'm signed up for Paris too! Looking forward to it loads. Was signed up in 2013 but missed it due to injury unfortunately - still a great experience to watch and take it all in. Loved the city. Will be my third marathon and hoping for a sub 3 attempt if training goes well!

Hi Everyone *waves*
Glad to see that there will be a group of Fetchies at the Paris marathon.
@NelskiBL - The Yorkshire Marathon was great, perfect weather as well! But I struggled slightly with the course being 'Yorkshire flat'
@Gromit - Congrats on completing London this year. Keep us posted on how your training goes!

Yes, I know what you mean. I ran the Brass Monkey half in January and that was flat. I'd never run so far so flat before. I thought the PYM would be the same. Not quite!!!

Oui, c'est bon! 4 nights for us. I'm on a 16 week training plan and week one went well - even though I'm still doing Marcothon so had to forget my rest days!

I am signed up for Paris 2015. Never done this one - anyone got any advice on good areas to stay with (a) reasonable prices and (b) good/quick access to the Start/Finish area? I was thinking 7th or 8th arrondissement??

The start is the Champs-Élysées and the finish is Avenue Foch. I'm staying in the 8th Arrondissement but he 16th or 17th could be ok too, 7th is across the river. A great website to book accommodation is airbnb, we found it much cheaper than a hotel.
