Xiahu International Marathon, Charity Entry!
After his [Running] skill was upgraded, Li Lei did not go to deliver food.
He rode his donkey to the subway station and took the subway to the International Sporting Exhibition Center.
Although he had never participated in the Xiahu International Marathon before, he had made ample preparations!
He had read all kinds of guides!
Enter from the second East Gate of the International Purchasing Convention and Exhibition Center and come to the reserved counter. Give me your ID card information and the Health and Safety Obligations Letter that I have signed.
Collect the items for the competition.
A clothing bag, a t-shirt for the competition, a number cloth, a one-time sensor timing chip…These were the most important things.
When participating in the competition, one had to wear a T-shirt, a number cloth, and a sensor timing chip.
The A. I. Chip still needed to go to the side to do a check to make sure that it was not damaged, that it could sense it, and that the name and information were correct.
The next day was the competition day.
Li Lei didn't choose to return to his rented room. Jingxian District was too far away from the competition venue.
It started at 5:30, which was the opening time for the competition.
If she went back to her rented apartment, she wouldn't have seen the subway so early in the morning. How could she rush over?
It was also the peak period in the clothing storage area!
So he found a hotel to stay in 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. While eating, he checked the weather.
It was basically high-sugar, high-protein, high-energy, and low-fat food. He was only 80% 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 would be changed to Sunday morning in the first week of December every year.
However, in 2014, after looking through the weather conditions in Shanghai for the past ten years, the Xiahu International Marathon was changed back to November and the race was held on the day with the best weather conditions.
Li Lei looked at the weather today. This temperature was relatively comfortable for ordinary people.
However, for a marathon, the body temperature was a little high.
The organizers set up spray stations and ice stations at 17.5 kilometers, 22.5 kilometers, 27.5 kilometers, 32.5 kilometers, and 37.5 kilometers to lower the temperature of the contestants.
Players could also use their own water, sponge, or ice to cool down.
For experienced players, this temperature was not a problem.
"Let's go! Let's go!"
Li Lei ate some food and checked out of the hotel.
When they arrived at the competition venue, it was not even 6:00.
There were already volunteers waiting here!
There were also some other contestants who found it troublesome and did not want to come late to get the crowded seats.
At the scene, through the Face Recognition and digital sentinel all-in-one machine, they entered the starting point of the competition.
According to the number on the number cloth, find the corresponding clothes storage car at the starting point and store it within the specified time.
"So big…!"
It was his first time participating in such a large-scale competition with tens of thousands of people.
Li Lei couldn't help but exclaim,"It's really awesome!"!
His number plate was A2·0612.
Clothes trucks A1-A3 parked on Hankou Road;
There were also B1-B4, C1-C9, D1-D12, and E1-E6.
Just the clothing storage area alone took up five streets!
When they arrived at the clothing storage area, the volunteers were already ready.
The volunteers took the scanner gun and scanned the QR code on the number plate or the competition code on the phone to complete the storage.
After storing their clothes, they walked down the streets of their respective storage areas and arrived at their respective districts.
The players from Area A would go to Area A.
The players from Zone B would go to Zone B.
And so on!
The Xiahu International Marathon was organized according to the zones on the number cloth. It was not allowed to start across zones.
In Zone A, Li Lei was the first batch of contestants to arrive.
He was doing some simple exercises and warming up!
Other than him, there were also some other contestants.
Some even brought food!
Some were already doing some simple exercises and warming up.
Food, water, discarded raincoats, winter cloths, and so on could not be thrown directly on the ground. They had to be given to the volunteers.
The volunteers that he saw along the way…and the volunteers that he didn't see were scattered all over the place.
From this, one could tell how big the Xiahu International Marathon was.
How many volunteers were there?
According to the official announcement, there were more than 30,000 participants!!!
Beside Li Lei was a young man and woman in their twenties…They seemed to be his girlfriends.
The couple was still taking photos with their phones. They were obviously the atmosphere group, enjoying the atmosphere of the marathon.
Seeing that Li Lei's clothes were different from hers, the girl asked curiously,""Handsome, is this a charity quota?”
"Yeah, I also want to experience the atmosphere of a marathon with tens of thousands of people, so I donated 3000 yuan to give it a try!”
Li Lei answered casually as he warmed up.
The t-shirt he was wearing and even his number were custom-made!
It was a charity quota!
There were three ways to participate in the Xiahu International Marathon:
The first was a direct entry.
Players who were invited by the officials, professional players, and players with results…they were all professionals.
The second method was to register directly!
This way, the registration fee for the entire horse race was 300 yuan. Because there were too many applicants, the number of participants was limited and regulated. More than 100 million people needed to draw lots!
This required a certain amount of luck!
The third type was the charity quota.
Donating 3000 yuan would allow one to enter the competition, and the number of places was limited on a first-come, first-served basis.
It was equivalent to a registration fee of 3000 yuan!
For ordinary people, the registration fee was 300 yuan.
If they were lucky, they could just play. The most important thing was to participate.
It didn't matter if he didn't get the draw!
Spending 3000 yuan to register…was unnecessary.
Only the top 10 would get the prize money!
More than 30,000 people participated, and he wanted to enter the top 10?
Most people knew their limits.
Moreover…the top 10 were basically all foreign players.
In terms of track and field, it had to be said that black people did have an advantage!
Otherwise, the prize money would not be set: An additional bonus for Great Xia athletes!
For Li Lei, he spent 3000 yuan to sign up for the top 10 prizes!
Or rather, he was aiming for the first place!!
He had never participated in a marathon that was certified as an " A-class event " by the Track and Field Association. He had no historical results and could not get a direct quota.
The second method of registration depended on luck.
Li Lei was aiming for the prize money for first place. What if he didn't win the lottery?
He directly chose a charity spot and donated 3000 yuan to get a spot!
Because it was a charity event…his T-shirt and even his number tag were special, different from the other players.
Li Lei's number plate still started with A2, which was closer to the front of Zone A.
In order to obtain the results of the competition, there was still a certain advantage in the front position.
