On October 9, the official website of the Chinese Athletics Association announced the evaluation results of the 2019 China Marathon Grade Events and Characteristic Events, and the Association awarded 118 gold medal events, 74 silver medal events, 82 bronze medal events, and a number of events were awarded special event honors. Hengqin Life Hengqin Marathon won two titles, namely the bronze medal event and the most beautiful track event.



In order to strengthen the management and supervision of marathon events and standardize the healthy development of marathon sports, the Athletics Association conducts evaluations in the selection process around the details of track selection, event organization, publicity and marketing, and cultural display.



The Hengqin Marathon, which was held in 2018, is one of the most distinctive marathons in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area. The race was held on Hengqin International Leisure Tourism Island, which is a characteristic marathon around the island full of island style. The holding of the Qin Marathon fills the gap of Zhuhai's "full marathon". In 2018, "Qin Horse" started from the Chinese Athletics Association as an A1 event, and after two years of hard work, "Qin Horse" has been comprehensively improved in various details such as event scale, event experience and service, and urban culture promotion, and finally won the 2019 bronze medal event.


  

The starting point of the 2019 competition is located at the Hengqin Financial Industry Service Base, which showcases the blueprint and achievements of the financial industry development in Hengqin New Area, passing through the Hengqin Port Business District, both sides of the Tianmu River, the Guangdong-Macao Cooperation Traditional Chinese Medicine Industrial Park, Xingle Du Paradise, the Flower Sea Promenade, Mangzhou Wetland, Hengqin Second Bridge, Wisdom Island and other landmark buildings and scenic spots with Hengqin characteristics. The line not only shows the natural ecological landscape and cultural landscape of "Hengqin International Leisure Tourism Island" to the outside world in an all-round way, but also conveys the ever-changing development achievements of Hengqin to the outside world. In the results of this event, Hengqin Marathon won the honor of "The Most Beautiful Track".


  

In addition to the ever-increasing hard power and beautiful track, the Hengqin Marathon has also joined hands with Macao to create a sports + tourism concept. Among the 10,000 runners in 2019, many runners from cities in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area gathered, especially from Macao, to participate in the grand event, and the Hengqin Marathon provided a new platform for the joint development and exchange between Zhuhai and Macao, as well as the promotion of Hengqin's development as an international leisure tourism island.


  

In 2020, the Hengqin Life Hengqin Marathon Organizing Committee continued to optimize and develop new peripheral series of events. In May, the Chinese White Dolphin Conservation Public Welfare Online Run was held to warm up for the "Qin Horse"; It is reported that in order to cooperate with the development of Zhuhai's maturing urban hardware facilities and the increasingly strong road running atmosphere, the event will launch the most beautiful track and the top five running routes in Zhuhai in October, covering typical routes in Zhuhai, including Lovers Road, Hengqin Tianmu River, Xiangshan Lake Park, Wild Beaver Island, Damen Wetland Park and other distinctive urban landmarks and leisure centers. This move is intended to create a stronger atmosphere of road running, show Zhuhai's beautiful cultural and natural environment, and create a better urban leisure life. At the same time, the 2020 Hengqin Life Hengqin Marathon event information will also be released soon.
