The 2022 Hainan Oriental Half Marathon will officially start on April 17.

There will be two events held on the day: a half marathon of 21.0975 km and a mini health run of 5.5 km. Both events have space for 4,000 runners each.

The registration fee for the half marathon is 150 yuan per person, and the registration fee for the mini fitness run is 60 yuan per person.

Registration

As of a few days ago, the registration channel has been officially restarted and the deadline has been adjusted from the original February 28 to March 20.

Runners can register and inquire about relevant information through the official WeChat account of Youmailu Run or the official website of the event (http://www.dongfang-halfmarathon.huodongzhongguo.com)!

Track route map

Due to some construction work within the city, the original route of the Dongfang Marathon had to be changed, although the starting and ending points of the new track remain unchanged, making it easier for players to travel to and from the area.

The starting areas of the two events are both located in Oriental Culture Square. The half marathon ends at one of the most famous scenic spots in Dongfang City – Yulinzhou Scenic Area, and the mini health run ends at the Citizens Leisure Plaza.
