Beijing Marathon 2020 canceled (sports events affected as epidemic prevention and control measures tighten)

The 2020 Beijing Marathon was originally scheduled to be held on October 18, but due to the impact of the Xin Guan epidemic, the organizing committee of the event has decided to cancel the current race. This makes Beijing one of the cities that have canceled their marathons due to the epidemic, after Shanghai, Chengdu and Hangzhou. In this article, we look at the reasons for the 2020 Beijing Marathon's cancellation, its impact and the future schedule of the event.

Epidemic prevention and control measures stepped up

The cancelation of the 2020 Beijing Marathon is a result of the impact of the epidemic. Since the outbreak of the Xinguang epidemic, the Chinese government has taken a series of measures to prevent and control the spread of the disease. These include restricting the movement of people and canceling large-scale events. Under these circumstances, the race organizing committee decided to cancel this year's Beijing Marathon to ensure the health and safety of participants and staff.

Impact

The Beijing Marathon is one of China's biggest marathons, attracting runners from around the globe every year. The cancelation of this year's race will have some impact on participants, sponsors and related industries.

First, for runners who have already registered for the race, they will need to re-plan their training and race programs. In addition, they will need to consider what to do with the registration fees they have already paid.

Secondly, for sponsors, the cancellation of the race will result in a disruption to their promotional plans. In addition, they will need to consider what to do with the sponsorship money they have already invested.

Finally, for related industries, the cancellation of the tournament will lead to a reduction in revenue from hotels, restaurants and transportation.

Future race schedule

Despite the cancellation of this year's Beijing Marathon, the race's organizing committee has already begun preparations for the 2021 race. It is reported that the 2021 Beijing Marathon will be held on October 17th. By then, the race organizing committee will take a series of measures to ensure the health and safety of participants and staff.

In addition, the race organizing committee will continue to promote the marathon and encourage more people to participate in it. They will continue to work with the government, sponsors and related industries to ****together promote the development of the marathon.
