Something I'd never noticed before were the joggers in Paris but this trip I saw a slew of them. Apparently, favored areas to jog include the Marais, especially around Place des Vosges and on the Ile St-Louis. Obviously, you'll wish to jog in areas that are relatively traffic-free such as along the quais and down on the quai level of the Ile St-Louis & Ile de la Cite.
Obviously, other excellent places to jog include the many parks throughout Paris such the Jardin des Plantes where I saw a group of joggers and a single jogger in one of the biggest central parks, the Jardin du Luxembourg at Place Edmond Rostand.

Your goal - in this adventure - is to see (have a look at, pass in front off, breeze along....) Mona Lisa
Your concurrents (hey, you didn't think you'd be alone ?) are the finest selection of the best international tourists, coached by the most famous travel agencies.
What ?
You don't know why you are here ?
You aren't an art lover ?
Leonard de Vinci - who's that guy ?
Mona Lisa - errr ...hmmm... what ? when ?
It doesn't matter : this is on your TO DO list !! I
So :
On your marks, ready, GOOOOOOOOOOOO !!!
Once done (no need to realy see it, you just have say you did it after all) DON'T forget to tick your list !!! (DONE)
PS : this run can be taken as a part of a more important challenge : The Louvre in 6 minutes (featuring also the Venus de Milo and the Victoire de Samothrace)
PPS : for juniors, seniors and chickens (like me), a less taxing competition is possible on thursdays, after 18h (February is a good month for it too)
A camera (forbidden by the museum rules but i heard you can score some more points with it)
A helmet
Non slippery shoes (rubber soles recommended, the wopdden floor is treacherous)
Disposable clothing (not sure it will survive, bring a change set)
Good elbows
Padding
First aid kit (ask a non participant to hold it for you)
NB : No doping control Leave a Comment Theme: Extreme SportsAddress: Musee du Louvre - Aile Denon - 1st floorDirections: Just follow the crowd (you can't do anything else any way once you have reached the door)

You won't be alone as in my last visit it seemed as if everywhere I turned - morning, noon, or night - there was somebody burning off the baguette they had for lunch. So squeeze those running shoes in the remaining space of your suit case and run with Paris.

If you're a jogger, you might want to try running in the Tuileries garden. I love this park. It's clean, fresh in the summer, quiet (even though main roads are close) and fun. Theme: OtherDirections: metro station "concorde", "tuileries", "louvre"
