The new point of this year's race is that in addition to the 6km, 10km and 42km distances, there will be a 25km distance instead of the 21km distance as in previous races. In addition, the race route has also been adjusted to bring a new and more attractive experience to the athletes. In particular, at the 25km and 42km distances, the finish line will be located at the Chay River-Dark Cave tourist site, instead of the Tram Me River wharf as in previous races.
At the meeting, representatives of departments, branches, and localities gave their opinions and suggestions to organize the race successfully and effectively, such as: Focusing on medical work, ensuring food hygiene and safety; security and order before, during and after the race, traffic diversion during the race; promoting the race to attract tourists and people to participate in cheering; stimulating tourism, reducing prices for athletes participating in the race, etc.
