The Xiamen Marathon (Chinese: 厦门马拉松; pinyin: Xiàmén guójì mǎlāsōng sài; Pe̍h-ōe-jī: Ē-mn̂g kok-chè má-la-song sài) is a Platinum Label marathon event held annually on the Xiamen in Fujian, People's Republic of China. Xiamen C&D Inc. is the current title sponsor for the race.[1] More than 50,000 runners took part in the race in 2010.[2] The 2013 edition featured 73,896 entrants.[3]

History

The Xiamen International Marathon, which began in 2003 and is deemed by the IAAF as a Gold Label Road Race, is famous for its coastal scenic course. The entire course follows the scenic sections of the coastal city.[4][5] The 2010 edition of the race had at least 30 instances of cheating, with some runners carrying multiple timing sensors or using public transport mid-course. Judges believed this was due to students attempting to gain bonus points for their National Higher Education Entrance Examinations.[2]
