Race Site and Transport The course is located in the Xuihui Riverside district. The start is in the Xuhui Riverside Green Space, and the finish is at Riverside Road. For the race route, please refer to the Course Map on our website. We recommend that participants make use of public transportation to the event. By Metro, take Line 7 to Mid Longhua Road stop. Race Number Make sure your company captain has given you the race number with your name on it. Complete the medical and emergency information on the back of the race number. Pin your race number to the front of your shirt. Do not give your race number to any other runner, even if you are unable to run. Race Timing The race will be timed using the ChronoTrack B-Tag timing system. Your race number contains a transponder (timing chip) which is read by an antenna located in a mat on the ground at the start and finish lines. Your time will be recorded beginning when you cross the start mat and ending when you cross the finish mat. It is important that all runners wear the race number pinned in all four corners, unwrinkled, and uncovered, to insure recording an accurate time. All recorded times will be listed in the race results on the jpmorgan.com/cc website. B-tags are disposable. You may deposit your bib number in one of the specially marked recycling bins near the finish. The Start The race start is in the Xuhui Riverside Green Space. This is a voluntary seeded event, which means that participants should line up according to their expected running time. Runners with red bibs should follow the yellow signs at the form up area to the front of the start. The first rows of the start will be reserved for fast racers. Runners and joggers should line up behind the runners with red bibs, and walkers should line up at the rear of the field. There will be multiple wave starts at intervals of 5 minutes. This will ensure that the race runs smoothly and will be a more enjoyable experience for all. Clothing Storage A baggage deposit will be available near the start.
