NOVEL CORONAVIRUS UPDATE -

I’m sorry that the Great Wall Marathon, which was originally scheduled to start on April 12, was cancelled due to well-known reasons. For those who have signed up and paid, we have entered the refund process, and the registration fee will be returned to your bank account in the original path, which will take about 15 working days to complete. Please wait patiently. At the same time, in October, we will open two great wall events, one is located in Mutianyu Great Wall, a suburb of Beijing, and the other is located in Shanhaiguan Great Wall, which is close to the sea. You can also make choices about the events you are interested in, and continue to complete the unfinished wishes. If you are interested, please click the following link to fill in the following table：http://greatwall-run.com/notic/, so that you can be informed in advance before the game. You can also contact us at support@runchinamarathon.com.Thank you for your support and understanding!
