France holds annual 'fancy dress' marathon
The annual Marathon du Médoc was held on September 10, near Bordeaux in France, with the theme 'Tales and Legends'. The 42-kilometre marathon requires participants to dress up in costumes and indulge in refreshments like oysters, cheese, and up to 23 glasses of wine during the run. Reportedly, around 10,000 people take part in the six-and-a-half-hour event every year.
