Remembering Dingneng
Formerly known as PQ & GZ Trail Marathon. I changed it in memory of my beloved friend Dingneng Wang, who inspired us so much and loved running this course. May he rest in peace! Dingneng had many hiking friends and he created a biking group. Let’s getting together to remember him in our own ways! We miss you, Dingneng!
This is NOT a race. There will be no support of any kind. You are on your own. No course marking, no aid station. You can have your own support any way you want, crewing or pacing. You can also run whatever portion of the course you like. Just come and run.
No timing. However if you want a result, you'll need to 1) register here for free (you don't need to register if you only run a part of the course and/or don't need a result). 2) run and follow the course at the date/time specified below. 3) have a strava account with the same name as your registration here. 4) publish your run on strava and make sure it's on the flyby and viewable by Everyone (google it if you don't know how).
