A moveable feast: running in Paris
We had visited Paris in many occasions in the past, but in 2018 we lived in the city of light for almost a year. We enjoyed running in its parks, our favourite being our "local" Parc Monceau. We also mapped a few "long run" routes which passed by the wonderful Tour Eiffel and the musée du Louvre. Pas mal!
Toko Ningana! Conquering the Congo River Marathon
We absolutely enjoyed taking part of the Congo River Half Marathon in vibrant and chaotic Kinshasa, with military men cheering and hundreds of locals with colourful tshirts running. This is a marathon like no other, in a country that will surprise you, unnerve you and fascinate you a the same time!
Running in the chaotic streets of Kinshasa
One rainy day we caught a glimpse of the brown waters of the Congo River as we ran through Kinshasa's richest neighborhood, Gombe, with many embassies behind high walls with barbed wire and heavily armed guards everywhere.
