The 2025 Haimen Marathon will take place on Nov 9. The race includes a full marathon (42.195 kilometers), a half marathon (21.0975 kilometers), and a fun run (4 kilometers). Registration is now open and will close on Sept 30 at 6:00 pm.

The route links the Yangtze River embankment, ecological wetlands, the dynamic city, as well as landmarks such as the Haimen Poly Grand Theatre, Jianghai Cultural Park, and Jianghai Museum, offering runners both visual and spiritual enjoyment.

This year's event highlights Haimen's key industry, textiles, by introducing the country's first customizable textile race bibs.

The race bib features the traditional Lufei flower pattern, showcasing Haimen's vibrant textile heritage and craftsmanship. Crafted from skin-friendly, breathable, and eco-conscious fabric, these bibs offer a comfortable feel and are washable, durable, and resistant to curling.

Participants can personalize their bibs with names, messages, or motivational quotes through a DIY customization service.
