How to combine marathon with tourism?

In fact, this question is very simple. You don't need to combine the two yourself. Nowadays, many local sports bureaus design marathons as part of tourism. There are several trends in the current marathon: First, the number of marathons has exploded. From 2065438 to 2007, 1 100 marathons and related sports events were held all over the country, with nearly 5 million participants. Second, the competition has changed from professional competition to mass sports. In addition to the traditional full horse and half horse, many marathons have added mini horses, ranging from 3 km to 10 km. Third, the marathon is accompanied by a folk feast with local customs, which is packaged and combined into a tourist feast.

Personally recommend the marathon in Long Island. Long Island is the only island county in Shandong Province, and you need to take a boat from Long Island Port to get in and out of Long Island. The marathon on Long Island is usually held on the afternoon of a weekend in September every year. The runway is a coastal highway, from the South Island of Long Island to the North Island through the cross-sea bridge, and then back to the starting point of the South Island. This line connects the main seaside attractions of Long Island in series, such as Jiuzhang Cliff and the boundary line between the Yellow Sea and Bohai Sea. The registration fee for the Long Island Marathon is much cheaper than the tickets to visit these scenic spots. It is even more unusual to visit scenic spots in the name of running.

Besides the marathon itself, there are many local activities. The biggest activity is the seafood festival, and the marathon is held in September, which is also the day to open the sea. Long Island is located on the dividing line between the Yellow Sea and the Bohai Sea. There are many seafood here, which are delicious and delicious, especially sea cucumbers. The night of the marathon is a seafood festival, and you can eat a seafood buffet for only a few hundred yuan. There are also folk performances at the seafood festival. Residents on the island attach great importance to the Kaihai Festival and will hold a series of activities to pray for a bumper harvest from the gods.

After the marathon, you can spend a day on the island to make up for the regret of just running from here. The marathon route is only on the largest South Island and North Island in Long Island. There are many other small islands in Long Island, each with its own customs, which can be reached by boat from Long Island Port. In addition, fishermen on the island are strongly recommended to enjoy special accommodation, including food and shelter for only tens of yuan, and some can go fishing with their bosses.
