About the Taichung International Marathon
Taichung International Marathon offers a full marathon, half marathon, 11K, and 4K from Daming Senior High School in Tanzi District. The full has a 1,500-runner cap and a longer 6.5-hour allowance than many Taiwan city races.
Course
The 42.195 km road course starts and finishes at Daming Senior High School. The organizer publishes a distance-specific route and a 6.5-hour cutoff, giving the smaller marathon field more room than the larger half and shorter-distance waves.
Race-day weather
Mid-October in Taichung is usually warm and humid, even at the early start. Sun exposure can lift the temperature quickly, while a late-season tropical system can bring rain, gusts, and sudden changes in conditions.
