Don't underestimate the "swept along" factor at mass participation events. If you both arrive at Paris uninjured but a little under prepared you'll still make it round, perhaps not as quickly or comfortably as you'd have liked though.
Was it a smaller race, e.g. White Peak Marathon, it'd be tougher as you'd be going it alone at times.
