Runner’s giant GPS shark swallows Paris
It looks like a shark painted on to a Paris map but it took endurance athlete Marine Leleu two weeks to plan and 10 hours to walk more than 50km of the capital’s streets to “paint” the design using her GPS tracker.
Advertisment
Marine started in the 8th arrondissement and continued along streets and across parks to the Champs-Elysées, with a circuit of the Arc de Triomphe for the eye.
It is not her biggest effort, as in September she became the first woman to complete the Enduroman race from London to Paris – running 140km to Dover, swimming across the Channel, then cycling 290km to Paris.
