CHONGQING (CQNEWS) -- The widely anticipated Chongqing International Marathon is going to take place on March 25th. As the “trophy” for this race, the Finisher’s Medal has always been a hot topic for runners. The other day, the Organization Committee made the Finisher’s Medal public – it is not only beautiful, but also “adjustable”!

The medal this year adopts the style of semi-open design with white jade that can be turned. On the front of the medal is a sailboat traveling across waves and gorges, manifesting the courage and ability of Chongqing citizens to face challenges and overcome difficulties; on the rear of the medal are the logos of the Chongqing Marathon, International Association of Athletics and Chinese Athletics Association as well as the distance and characters for “FINISHER”. Besides, an area for carving characters is preserved, which will not damage the medal’s overall aesthetics.

In addition, just like last year, the totem of Ba Yu Culture is adopted on both sides of the medal, which contributes to a style coinciding with the logo of Chongqing International Marathon. The logo of Chongqing International Marathon and characters “2018 CHONGQING MARATHON” are printed on the ribbon dyed with “Chongqing Blue”. (Translated by Sun Jiuyang, Fathom Language Limited)
