With one last stride, I crossed the finish line, feeling both tired and incredibly joyful. I immediately noticed how well-organized the event was. The hydration stations were set up perfectly, the volunteers were friendly and always ready to help, and the clear signs made it easy to follow the route. Everything was planned with care, so I could focus on the race.

As for the race, I felt that the route itself was both beautiful and challenging, taking me through some of Shanghai's most intriguing streets and landmarks in the northern part of the city. Each twist and turn revealed new layers of Shanghai's vibrant character, including newly renovated areas that reflect the city's rapid development and commitment to urban revitalization and green development.
