In between the course passes Nanjing Road pedestrian street, Jing'an Temple, Huaihai Road, Xintiandi, the Huangpu riverfront and Longhua Temple. Timing mats record 5 km splits and the halfway point, and closing times are set at 10 km and every 5 km after that, with a 13:30 finish cut-off. Entry is by a draw for most runners, with some places for qualifiers from the organiser's half marathons.
