About
The Paris Ekiden, formerly known as the Versailles to Paris Ekiden, is an international ekiden (marathon relay race) held in Paris. The inaugural race in 1990 was marred by a series of problems, which led to the race’s discontinuation until 2013 when it returned on an annual basis.
The inaugural edition of the race in 1990 featured 20 teams of 6 runners, with each team consisting of 4 men and 2 women. It had a budget of 6 million Euros.
During the final stage of the race, all teams except for the two leaders Great Britain and Denmark ran off course. As a result, all but those teams ran approximately 1 kilometre (0.62 mi) short of the official race distance. It was viewed as a failure of event security, and the competition was not held again the following year.
The race would not return again until 2013 on a yearly basis, with the elite athletes running alongside a mass ekiden race. The new race started near The Louvre and finished at the Place de la Bastille.
