More Chinese runners are turning their dream of competing in the Abbott World Marathon Majors into reality.
According to Wanda Sports, the strategic partner of the AWMM, the six venues for the race series - Tokyo, Boston, London, Berlin, Chicago and New York - last year attracted 6,155 runners from the Chinese mainland, Hong Kong and Macao.
The Berlin Marathon attracted 2,202 Chinese runners, the most from the country among all six events, while the Chicago Marathon boasted the second-highest number of Chinese, with 1,347.
