About the Event

Runners are invited to experience the unique and picturesque course around Chianpoh Lake for an exciting race series on September 26, 2026. The event features distances of 3k, 6k, 9k, 12k, half marathon (21.1km), and a challenging 30k ultra-distance option.
The JAAF-certified course is known for its nearly flat terrain with well-maintained asphalt paths that wind around the serene lake, providing stunning views of water and nature throughout the run. Distances are clearly marked every 100 meters along the route, making it easy to track progress and pace.
For those tackling the half marathon or ultra-distance events, participants will appreciate the organized start procedure where runners are grouped based on target finish times. This ensures a smooth and efficient race experience for all competitors, allowing everyone to focus on their personal goals without worrying about pacing issues caused by mixed-speed groups.
With its scenic setting and well-organized structure, this event offers something special for both recreational runners looking to enjoy the beauty of Chianpoh Lake and serious athletes seeking a challenging yet enjoyable distance run.
