Many people think that long distance running is hard; however now it is the new hit fashion in Hangzhou. In the last three weeks, Hangzhou holds 3 long distance running races. They are 32kms Hangzhou country cross race, International marathon Hangzhou on Nov. 3 and the VASQUE Cup in the just week. Reports tell us that many competitors outside from Hangzhou show up in the races three in a role.

 

Why the long distance running if so hot? And Why Hangzhou? Runners from Shanghai mention that there aren’t sufficient conditions for them to do it in Shanghai. But after long-time working and tight situation, they really need to join in this kind of activity and relax themselves. And go back to work full of energy again.

 

In Huanglong Sports Centre, families and friends of local competitors watch their match and cheer up for them. It is a lovely atmosphere we have for Hangzhou leisure.
