In the half marathon, Zhao Yanli from China crossed the finish line with a time of 1:15:49, claiming the championship. "It's an honor to represent women in this race," Zhao said. "Running along the Suzhou Creek and Zhongshan Park, with such breathtaking views, made my experience even more unforgettable."

Zhao wasn't the only one. Among those captivated by the beautiful scenery along the race route was Eynullayeva Nilufar, a graduate student at East China Normal University from the Republic of Azerbaijan.

"This is my third time attending the game. I run it every year, it's always my favorite one because every time, I make the best result," said Nilufar.

"It's very convenient to run here near the Suzhou Creek and Zhongshan Park. The sports atmosphere is great [in Shanghai] but a little bit competitive. It's always very hard to join the races because of the [crowded] registrations and drawings."
