Wuxi Taihu International Expo Center

II. Special Notices

The 2026 Wuxi Marathon check-in will adopt a “time-slot reservation” system to control crowd density on-site strictly. Key points:

1. Reserve first, then check in. Participants who do not arrive at their reserved time will not be able to collect their race materials.

2. Participants can make reservations through WeChat Program → Entry Assistant → Event Assistant → Wuxi Marathon → Check-in Reservation. Please plan your trip properly and strictly follow your reserved time slot.
Tip: It is recommended to check in on Thursday (Mar. 19) or Friday (Mar. 20) to avoid the peak crowd on Saturday (Mar. 21).

3. On race day, facial recognition and wristbands will be used for identity verification. According to the Personal Information Protection Law of the People’s Republic of China, all participants with confirmed race entries will authorize the Organizing Committee to collect facial information during check-in. Participants who complete the facial data collection will not need to carry an ID on race day.

Important Reminder:
Suppose a participant refuses or revokes the authorization for collecting personal information (such as name, ID number, phone number, emergency contact, etc.). In that case, they will bear the consequences, including being unable to participate, disqualification, or race result cancellation.

III. Check-in Process

IV. Check-in Credentials

1. Participants must present original, valid identification documents to complete the check-in procedure (e.g., original second-generation Resident Identity Card, Mainland Travel Permit or Residence Permit for Hong Kong and Macao residents, Mainland Travel Permit or Residence Permit for Taiwan residents, or for foreign participants, a valid passport, or Foreigner’s Permanent Residence ID Card, etc.). Please ensure that the ID is valid and consistent with the information provided during registration.

2. Participants without the required original identification documents will be denied race kit collection.

V. Race Kit Collection

VI. Friendly Reminders

1. Participants must collect their race kits in person. No proxy collection is allowed. On-site identity verification will be carried out via facial recognition. Participants must bring their original, valid identification document to check in. If the person and the ID do not match, the Organizing Committee will refuse to issue the race kit.

2. Participants are strongly advised to undergo a physical examination at a Class II Grade A or higher hospital within 12 months before the race. The check-up must include blood pressure and one of the following:

- Resting electrocardiogram (ECG)

- 24-hour Holter monitor

- Treadmill stress test

If results show abnormal blood pressure or significant ECG issues (e.g., pronounced bradycardia), a cardiac ultrasound is also required. ECG and cardiac ultrasound are not interchangeable. Participants should assess their fitness condition in conjunction with their examination results to determine whether they are fit for road running.

3. Participants unable to collect race kits in person may apply within 10 days after the race via the official website to have race items (excluding bib, timing chip, and name badge) shipped to them. The participant will bear all shipping costs. Details of the application process will be announced on the official website after the event. Sponsor-provided items must be collected in person and will not be shipped.

4. T-shirt sizing: No size information is collected during registration. Sizes will be distributed based on event stock and request order, on a first-come, first-served basis. The Organizing Committee will do its best to meet participants’ preferences but cannot guarantee the desired size for everyone.

5. Size exchange: Participants may exchange T-shirts on-site only if the original packaging is unopened. Once opened, exchanges will not be accepted.
