Race Info
The Tianzhong Marathon (Taiwan Rice Granary Tianzhong Marathon, 台灣米倉田中馬拉松) is held in Tianzhong Township, Changhua County, in central Taiwan, on a Sunday in early or mid November. The marathon starts and finishes beside the Tianzhong Township Office, loops through the town's rice fields along the Babao Canal paths, runs the Erhshui bike path and the Shetou sock-factory district, and returns through the train station area. The marathon course received World Athletics AIMS certification in September 2026. A half marathon, a 10K fun run and a kids' run take place the same weekend.
