Hi everyone!

I would like to ask for your help... this time its chooseing the right Running licence for running the Paris Semi-Marathon... exactly what kind of licence do i need to run in the Semi-Marathon... thanks in advance.

Hi David

You don't need a licence to run the semi-marathon de Paris, all you need is a medical certificate from your doctor (un "certificat médical") which must have the following exact statement : "non contre indication à la pratique de la course à pied en compétition"

If you have a licence because you are a member of a club then you don't need a medical certificate.

C'est cool kikourou, on fait même un d'anglais

hi Ouster.

Well... the medical certificate part would be fine... but the homepage of the Semi-Marathon sais that the medical certificate has to be at least 1 year old... how do i solve that. And you have to have a medical certificate even to join a club. Dose anyone have any ideas?

Are you sure it says AT LEAST ?
Because normally, it has to be NO MORE THAN (so LESS than) one year old ...(that`s the rule of the French Athletics Association)
It must have been a tremendous error from the translator ...

voici le texte du site en anglais :

2/ You are a runner who is not a holder of an FFA licence
• You must be in possession of a medical certificate issued less than 12 months prior to the Paris Marathon, i.e. March 8th , 2009, testifying that you are fit to participate in running competitions.
• The original certificate or a copy must be attached to your entry form and payment and given to the organisers when you register for the Paris Half Marathon.

je ne vois pas où est le problème, parfaitement identique aux textes français en vigueur

Indeed, no problem.
Just davidlakat may have misinterpreted that sentence. I can try to reformulate it for him:

issued less than 12 months before the Paris Marathon

Si tu jactes l'argoinces parigot
tézigue y s'ramène chez son toubib
il lui refile un paplard scribouillé avec " non contre-indication à la course à pied en compétition"
le paplard est daté de moins d'une pige, tu le ronéotes et tu l'refiles avec ton flouze au gonze qu'organise
