Urban longevity: liver experience from running

Chapter 3 Summer Shanghai International Marathon Starts, Charity Quota!

After improving his “running” skills, Li Lei did not go to deliver takeaways.

He rode a little donkey to the subway station, took the subway, and went to the international procurement convention and exhibition center.

For this ‘Xiahu International Marathon’, although he has not participated in the race, he has made full preparations!

Check out the various guides!

Enter from the East Gate 2 of the International Procurement Convention and Exhibition Center, come to the reserved collection counter, provide ID card information, and the “Health and Safety Responsibility Commitment” signed by me.

Collect your entry items.

A dress bag, a competition T-shirt, a bib number, a disposable induction timing chip… This is the most important thing.

To participate in the competition, you need to wear a hair down T-shirt, a bib number and a sensor timing chip.

The chip also needs to be tested to the side to make sure that it is not damaged, can be sensed, and the name information is correct.

The next day is match day.

Li Lei did not choose to return to the rental house, and the Jingxian area was too far from the competition point.

From 5:30, it is the opening time of the starting point of the race, and you can enter.

If you go back to the rental house and haven’t seen the subway early in the morning, how can you rush over?

Rush over, the storage area is also the peak period!

So he directly found a hotel here last night!

“The highest temperature is 20 degrees, the lowest temperature is 16 degrees, cloudy to overcast, the air quality is excellent, the air humidity is 51%, southeast wind, breeze…”

Li Lei got up early in the morning, and when he was eating, he took a look at the weather by the way

It is basically a high-sugar, high-protein, high-energy, low-fat food, and only eats 8 points full.

Originally, the ‘Xiahu International Marathon’ was held on the second Saturday of November every year, which was the opening day of the Xiahu National Fitness Festival

From 2010 onwards, it was changed to Sunday mornings in the first week of December every year;

However, in 2014, after reviewing the weather conditions in Shanghai for nearly a decade, the Xia-Shanghai International Marathon was changed back to November, and the race was held on the day with the best weather environment.

Li Lei looked at today’s weather conditions, this temperature, for ordinary people, is more comfortable.

But for marathons, the body temperature is somewhat high.

At 17.5 km, 22.5 km, 27.5 km, 32.5 km and 37.5 km, spray stations and ice stations were set up to cool down the players.

Players can also cool themselves with water, sponges and ice.

For experienced players, this temperature is not a problem.

“Go! Let’s go! ”

Li Lei ate something, checked out with his clothes bag and left.

Arrive at the game point, it is not until 6:00.

There are already volunteers waiting here!

There are others who are also troublesome and don’t want to come over later to pick up the crowds.

At the scene, through the face recognition + digital sentinel all-in-one machine, enter the storage area at the starting point of the competition.

According to the number of the clothes storage car on the bib number, find the corresponding clothes storage car at the starting point and store it within the specified time.

“It’s so big…!”

For the first time, participating in such a large-scale competition of tens of thousands of people.

Li Lei had to sigh: It’s really bullish!!

His number plate is: A2·0612

A1-A3 clothes storage vehicles are parked on Hankou Road;

Others are: B1-B4, C1-C9, D1-D12, E1-E6.

Just the storage area, there are five streets!

Coming to the storage area, the volunteers are ready.

Volunteers hold a code scanning gun, scan the QR code on the number plate, or the competition code on the mobile phone, and complete the clothes storage.

Shop up your clothes and walk down the streets of your own storage area, which is the subdivision to which they belong.

Players in Zone A go to Zone A;

Players in Zone B go to Zone B;

And so on!

The ‘Xiahu International Marathon’ is based on the zoning on its bib number and is not allowed to start across districts.

In Zone A, Li Lei was the first to arrive.

He’s doing simple activities and warming up!

In addition to him, some other players arrived.

Some even brought food!

Some are already in simple activities, warming up.

Food, water, discarded raincoats, cold cloths, etc., cannot be directly thrown on the ground, and need to be given to volunteers.

Only the volunteers who came to see along the way… There are also many branches everywhere and no volunteers are seen.

You can see how big the Xiahu International Marathon is?

How many volunteers?

According to official data, there are more than 30,000 participants this time!!!

Next to Li Lei is a pair of young men and women in their 20s… Seems to be his girlfriend.

The couple was also taking pictures with their mobile phones, which was obviously the atmosphere group, feeling the atmosphere of a 10,000-person marathon.

Seeing that the clothes on Li Lei’s body were different from herself, the girl asked with some curiosity: “Handsome guy, are you a charity quota?” ”

“Yes, I also want to feel the atmosphere of a marathon of tens of thousands of people, and donated 3,000 yuan to try it!”

Li Lei answered casually while warming up.

His T-shirt and even bib numbers are custom-made!

It belongs to the charity quota!!

There are three ways to participate in the ‘Xiahu International Marathon’:

The first type: through quota.

Officially invited players, professional players, successful players… It’s all professional anyway.

The second type: direct registration!

In this way, the registration fee for the whole Malaysia is 300 yuan, because the number of applicants is too large, the number of participants is limited and stipulated, and more than 100 million needs to be drawn!

It takes a certain amount of luck!

The third type: charity quotas.

Donate 3,000 RMB to get a quota for participation, and the number of places is limited, first come, first served.

It is equivalent to an application fee of 3,000 yuan!

For ordinary people, there is an application fee of 300 yuan.

The draw is won, lucky, just play, the emphasis is on participation.

It doesn’t matter if the draw doesn’t win!

Spend 3,000 yuan to sign up… You don’t have to.

Only the top 10 will have a bonus!

More than 30,000 people and want to be in the top 10?

Most people are self-aware.

Not to mention… The top 10 are basically foreign players.

In terms of athletics, I have to say that black people do have an advantage!

Otherwise, the competition bonus will not be set: additional bonus for athletes from Daxia!

For Li Lei, he spent 3,000 yuan to sign up, which is to go for the top 10 bonuses!

Or rather: just go for the first place!!

He has not participated in a marathon certified as an “A event” by the Athletics Association, has no historical results, and cannot get a direct place.

The second way to sign up depends on luck.

Li Lei went for the first prize, what if the draw was not won?

He directly chose the charity quota, donated 3,000 yuan, and got a place!

Because it’s charity… So his T-shirt and even the number plate are idiosyncratic, unlike other players.

Li Lei’s number plate still starts with A2, which is relatively high in the A area.

If you want to get the results of the competition, the top position still has a certain advantage.
