The 2025 Beijing Half Marathon started at 7:30 on 20 April at Tiananmen Square, with 20,000 runners from 54 countries and regions.
There were 169,879 advance sign-ups, a record, and a 99.02% finish rate. The race grew out of a 1956 city-circuit run and was in its 69th year. Kenyan runners won both races, in 1:00:25 and 1:09:07.
Sourced
The course was changed for 2025 with more straights after 17.5 km, and the finish was on the central landscape avenue of the Olympic Park. The start was half an hour later than in earlier years, with five start groups sorted by the best times runners had submitted.
