00:00The 2025 Shanghai Marathon will kick off this Sunday, and organisers have announced a record-breaking over 356,000 pre-registrations at their news conference earlier on Wednesday.
00:16This year we have set up a Shanghai Wonton cheering station at the finish line inspired by the Shanghai dialect-themed movie.
00:22We aim to use Shanghai Wonton to promote and popularise the Shanghai dialect while connecting sports with the local culture.
00:29At the same time, through the dedicated efforts of our Shanghai team, we are striving to elevate the Shanghai Marathon to an official World Marathon major by 2027.
00:40So far, 43 elite athletes are set to compete including 18 from overseas in a mix of platinum and gold label runners.
