Classic Tours offers 75 places for Paris Marathon
Howard Lake | 4 January 2006 | News
Overseas charity challenge operator Classic Tours has secured 75 last minute places for the 30th Paris Marathon on 9 April 2006. It is promoting them to charities looking for an alternative for supporters to the London Marathon.
Charities who can’t secure enough places in the London Marathon for their runners now have a last opportunity to secure places in the Paris Marathon. Individual registrations for the Paris Marathon are closed so Classic Tours’ 75 places could prove popular.
The annual Paris Marathon attracts 30,000 runners along its Champs Elyées to Avenue Foch route.

Erich Reich, Managing Director of Classic Tours, said: “We intend to widen our marathon programme later this year”.
Enquiries and applications for places at this year’s Paris Marathon will not be accepted after 23 January 2006.
