Sorry late news from weekend: Declan power completed the Paris Half Marathon on a very cold, crisp Sunday morning finishing in 35th place in 72:27, with over 47,000 entrants, it’s a huge event in its own right –  and now the third largest Half Marathon in the world (after Great North Run and Gothenburg). Starting and ending at Chateau de Vincennes, the route took in well known landmarks including the Place de la Bastille and Notre Dame Cathedral. The honorary guest this year was Halie Gebreselassie.
