The 36th Beijing Marathon will start at Tiananmen Square on September 17. As usual, the three-day Beijing Marathon Expo will also welcome 30,000 runners from across the country from September 14 to 16. Channel 5 made its first appearance at the Beijing Marathon Expo this year, providing services and interaction for running enthusiasts.

After the Lanzhou Marathon in June and the Beijing Marathon in September, Channel 5 will continue to make an appearance at the Shanghai Marathon Expo in October as well. This is another step in Channel 5's ongoing efforts to deepen its presence in the running industry, following its branded event "Ai Pao" (Love Running).
