The event in a few words

The Miyun Marathon is your big breath of fresh air just a stoneโ€™s throw from Beijing, with a race that takes you from city vibes to waterside spots that instantly calm everything down ๐ŸŒŠ.

Here, you pick your adventure: 42.195 km to live a true epic, or 21.0975 km to treat yourself without burning your last cartridge ๐Ÿ….

The course has that little something extra: bridges and viaducts that give you perspective, lakes and ponds to breathe, and an โ€œoffbeat placeโ€ vibe that gets you out of the classic neighborhood loop ๐ŸŒ‰.

And if you come with your crew, itโ€™s even better: the event also caters to kids & juniors, perfect for turning the day into a mini family party (and avoiding the famous โ€œwhen are we going homeโ€)! ๐Ÿ‘จโ€๐Ÿ‘ฉโ€๐Ÿ‘งโ€๐Ÿ‘ฆ

After the finish, Iโ€™ll guide you on an easy walk around the start area: go check out the Miyun Reservoir to chill by the water, take a detour through the Miyun Olympic Forest Park for a laid-back stroll, and head all the way to the Great Wall at Simatai (or Gubei Water Town right next door) to end the day in full postcard mode ๐ŸŒ„.
