Excellent :'-D
Thanks to all for you ideas on this. I did try the "business trip" but it
was suspected as a standard adultery ploy, so had to can it.
I'll just stop wasting energy and will practice my "droplets on a
lacquered Duck's back" Thi Chi Chuan sequence :-P

Steve, do you know if the Paris marathon route is marked in miles, or
just in KM?
Also, do you get to use your own bag in the drop-off lockers on
Avenue Foch, or do you have to use an official bag?

I believe it's marked in miles too. It was in 2001 when I first did it.
If you check out the "Google" map on the website, it shows miles as well
as kms.

I used my own bag in 2001 and the site doesn't mention any special bags.
You just have to show your race bib and they write it on a plastic outer
bag or a label (can't remember which).
I expect the information desk at the Marathon Expo, where you go to pick
up bib/chip, will know.

I must've missed something. Are you doing the Paris Marathon? I thought you
decided against it.

Looks like I'll be making the decision on 1 PM Thursday. That's
when I leave for the airport. As of this morning, it doesn't look
too good. Over the last couple of days, the temperature forecast
has been rapidly escalating -- it's now up to 77F. Even though
I'm not looking for a PR, with the late start at 8:45 AM, I'd be
running in temperatures similar to those you suffered through in
Atlanta. Unless I come up with a truly compelling reason to go,
can't see flying that far just to be miserable.

It is indeed looking crappy for temperatures; 52-79°F latest forecast.
