Tianzhong Rice Heaven Marathon
Race Day Weather
Warm start, pacing essential
Runners will face temperatures rising from 73°F at the start to 83°F by the finish, with an average humidity of 69%. A headwind will affect miles 1-3 and 11-18, making pacing adjustments crucial early on. Hydration frequency should increase as temperatures climb, particularly past mile 10. The gently rolling course will provide some relief with tailwinds during the latter miles, but runners should stay conservative until conditions stabilize.

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.
