Moving from the East to the West of Paris has
been really fun as it’s given me the chance to explore a completely different
area of Paris. The area I’m living in now is slightly more peaceful than the
Marais, which is a really welcome change – although I did love the Marais for
all its amazing vintage shops and back streets full of hidden restaurants and
bars.
As I’ve said before, one of the best ways to
explore a new area is to run around it! So this is my first favourite running
spot in the 8th arrondissement.

Parc Monceau is a smallish park off Boulevard
de Courcelles – it covers roughly 20 acres, so it doesn’t take very long to run
around the outside of it. It’s a great place to go if you want a short, easy
run, but you can obviously also turn it into a long one by doing laps! There is
a long, flat stretch down the middle of it which could be good for sprint
practice.
Running past this pretty flower shop on the
way to the park always puts me in a happy mood!
