As the big clock at the finish line approached 3:00:00, every male runner who successfully rushed to "Sub3" was very excited and made a "3" gesture to take pictures.

Ms. Tan, who ran 3 hours and 25 minutes in the women's full marathon challenge group, said frankly that she was very happy to be able to achieve "Sub330".

But this time, the prize money of the Zacks Horse is very attractive. After thinking about it for a week, I struggled a lot. In the end, I felt that being a Zacks Horse is the last long lesson. The pace is not intended to be too aggressive, and the goal is to finish within 3 hours and 30 minutes, which can not only earn travel expenses, but also achieve the effect of practice, killing two birds with one stone.”

This year's Zama Marathon is the first one under the return to normal after the epidemic. Ms. Tan thinks that the atmosphere is very good. "Last year, we must maintain a social distance at the start of the race. As soon as the gun is fired, I rush out. I have tried it for a long time. The number of people in the previous races was very small, but today there are many runners."
