The 2014 Wenjiang ThreeFinger 10 km Marathon will take place on Nov 16 in Shou’an town in Wenjiang, Chengdu, Sichuan province. Currently, the online application system is accessible to the public. It is expected that there will be 2,000-3,000 participants running together on that day.
The marathon will start from the downtown area of Shou’an and end at the Mast of the Chen Family. In a change from other city marathons, where people run in the “concrete forest”, the ThreeFinger marathon has set its racing track on the greenway along the river in the real forest. Participants can enjoy the joy brought about by healthy exercise and the charm of the natural scenery. Also, after the marathon, they can taste delicious dishes in Wenjiang.
According to the organizer, Sina Sichuan, participants can record their march with an intelligent running chip and a running APP and learn about their ranking and running information. In addition, team members of the China bodybuilding and fitness team will appear on the activity.
