As early as the afternoon of January 23, the Chinese Athletics Association urgently issued a notice to strengthen the prevention and control of the novel coronavirus in marathon events. The notice required that for events scheduled before April 30, relevant departments must conduct a risk assessment. If the risk is high, measures such as relocating, postponing, or canceling the event should be taken to minimize potential risks.
Given the current severe situation of the novel coronavirus pneumonia epidemic prevention and control, this measure aims to strengthen epidemic prevention and control, effectively reduce crowd gatherings, block the spread of the epidemic, and better protect the lives and health of the people.
Since January 23, more and more events have been postponed or suspended. Nearly 30 running events nationwide have been announced as postponed or canceled.
