I Jogged Through the Louvre in the Name of Culture and Sport

Courez au Louvre is a one-hour circuit of the famous Paris museum, designed to stoke excitement about the upcoming Olympic games.

This was no typical tour of the Louvre. The instructions entailed sneakers, athletic attire, and an arrival time of 7:45 am, earlier than the opening of most boulangeries and well before tens of thousands of visitors typically descend on the world’s largest and most popular museum. Some of us showed up in sweats, others in full-on gym ’fits. I couldn’t resist wearing a hoodie from the museum’s 2021 collaboration with Uniqlo designed by Peter Saville.

” Courez au Louvre kicked off last week with 16 sessions staggered through the end of May as part of the museum’s Olympics programming, and it numbers among a larger slate of Paris exhibitions and activities under the banner of an Olympiade Culturelle.
