Race details

Distinctive features

  • Race categories include marathon, half marathon, 9K, and 4K; the marathon starts at 05:50 and the half marathon at 06:10.
  • The marathon and half-marathon routes cover central Hsinchu, Hsinchu Park, the Touqian River bikeway, and the Nanliao coastline; the 4K leisure route includes an air-base section.
  • The aid plan lists about 16 stations, roughly every 2 to 3 km, with sponge-water stations added according to course and weather needs.

Runner notes

  • Because the 4K leisure route passes through an air-base area, the official rules restrict Mainland China, Hong Kong, and Macau participants from entering that section, and runners without bibs may not enter.
  • Transport planning includes three free shuttle loops; runners need to register for shuttle use and show their bib on race day.
