Rue de Rivoli, Paris...Marathon?
 
I was just looking at a webcam of Paris, particularly Rue de Rivoli, and the street is full of people. It looks like it is perhaps a marathon. Does anybody know whether there is in fact a marathon today/Sunday or is it some kind of protest?

Just curious...

You might have better luck posting on the european board. This is the US one.

Yes, the Paris marathon was today @ 8:45 (Paris time). From the Champs Elysees Avenue to Foch Avenue running through Bastille, Nations, Vincennes, les Tuileries...sounds like a great time!!

BTW-You've piqued my interest. What is the address for the Paris webcams? I've seen some of the tower but not of rue de Rivoli.

First, oops...I didn't mean to post it on the US Board, certainly did mean to put it on Europe board.

Here's the website address, a bit long but, just copy and paste .... you have several different options of webcams of Paris, very neat site.
