Shanghai half marathon canceled to meet ‘demand of our runners’   2017-08-30

 

 

SHANGHAI is following in Beijing’s footsteps by canceling the 21-kilometer international half marathon event.

Organizers announced yesterday that this year’s half marathon, which was due to take place on November 12, isn’t going to be held.

They said the 8,000 places for the race have instead been allotted to the 42.2km full marathon, which will now have 28,000 places — 8,000 more than last year. The 10km and 5km races will continue to feature 5,000 runners each.
