As it stands, the six nations game in Paris is due to go ahead this weekend, which is interesting.
Still keeping everything crossed 🙂
Will be wondering around Paris the day before on my own as my partner in crime doesn't get to Paris until late on the Saturday so I may be up for the pre-race meal too...

Although I’m struggling with the rational they’re applying about cancelling the likes of the half marathon last weekend, but are planning to have a stadium full of rugby fans this weekend!
They were quite cheap, though, so I'm sure quite a few will have booked them.
Mind you, if the race gets cancelled at least they wont lose as much as others 🙂
Details apparently coming in the next 24 hours.
> We are hearing through the grapevine, that an exhibitor at the expo has been advised that the marathon is being moved to October - possibly 18th.

a good source?
The Rome marathon have been really decent about their cancellation.
Guaranteed entry, next year,at no additional cost. Finishers will receive both 2020 & 2021 medals.

If paris is moved to 18th Oct it causes me a bit of an issue, as I've got the Dublin marathon the following weekend. I'll wait to hear what Paris offers, then decide. Still got a place for London this year that I was going to defer to next year, so no idea what way to organise things currently
"Using a credit card to buy something costing between £100 and £30,000 means you are legally entitled to a refund if you do not get what you were promised.
Even if the ticket is worth less than £100, or a debit card was used instead, there is still the chance of getting a refund under the chargeback scheme. This is used to reverse the transaction."
The Rome announcement was very very well written. Shame they had to do it though.
I'm still hoping to run it but who knows?
It says ASO will make the official announcement tomorrow (Friday).
I love your positive outlook.
The Harmonie Mutuelle Semi de Paris 2020 and the Schneider Electric Marathon de Paris have both been moved to Sunday 6th September and the 18th October respectively.
Immediately after the cancellation of the Harmonie Mutuelle Semi de Paris 48 hours before the start, the teams from the Mairie de Paris and the Amaury Sport Organisation came together to find a new date for the event. We are pleased to announce that the Harmonie Mutuelle Semi de Paris 2020 will take place on Sunday 6th September.
Regarding the Schneider Electric Marathon de Paris, we have reached an agreement with the Mairie de Paris to move the Schneider Electric Marathon de Paris to the 18th October with the aim of avoiding any last-minute cancellation. The practical changes concerning these two events will be communicated to the competitors shortly.
I’ll never train this hard through winter again either! Think I’ll be sticking to Autumn marathons from now on....
It's been a sleepless night monitoring various media websites etc, but at least a decision has been made. My brother who lives in France has a birthday late Oct, so will be able to celebrate with him in Puy L'Eveque post-marathon 😊
