The Paralympic Marathon will start on Sunday, September 8, 2024 from the Parc Valbon located in La Courneuve. The marathoners will then head for Le Bourget, Drancy, Bobigny (near the PRISME center), Pantin and up to Aubervilliers, then on to the city of Saint-Denis, passing near the Basilique des rois and the Stade de France via a stretch of the Saint-Denis canal quay.
The runners enter Paris via Porte d'Aubervilliers. From then on, they'll be in for a rough ride. Streets include rue de Crimée, boulevard de la Villette, Quai de Jemmapes, Place de la République, boulevard des Italiens, Place de la Concorde and the cobbled Champs-Elysées. Athletes will circle the Arc de Triomphe, then take the Avenue des Champs-Elysées in the opposite direction to cross the Seine and reach the Esplanade des Invalides (on the left bank of Paris), where they will finish.
This 42.195km marathon includes 185m of ascent.
