Great Wall Marathon

长城马拉松

Great Ocean Road Marathon

大洋路马拉松

Most people choose to travel the Great Ocean Road by car. But runners are not most people. Seize the chance to travel this classic coastal highway by foot in a marathon that will be breathtaking in every sense. The Great Ocean Road stretches along the sand-strewn southern coast of Australia and is hemmed1 in by expansive greenery on one side and lush blue sea reaching the horizon on the other. The ‘marathon’ is actually 44 km （27.3 miles）， so you can justifiably2 claim to have run an ultra3， too. Bonza4！

The race finishes at the 1912 Olympic Stadium， home to a whopping5 83 track and field world records， so keep a little in the tank for a sprint6 finish.
