2019 Newcastle International Half Marathon

AustCham, in partnership with Takungpao.com, invites you to attend the “2019 Newcastle International Half Marathon”on 6th October, 2019. This event will feature a 21km run along the stunning coast of Newcastle-just north of Sydney-in New South Wales, Australia.

中国澳大利亚商会与大公网诚邀您参加“2019澳大利亚－纽卡斯尔国际半程马拉松”。本次活动将于2019年10月6日在澳大利亚新南威尔士州，纽卡斯尔市举行。参赛者将沿纽卡斯尔市风景秀丽的海岸线进行21公里的马拉松比赛。

Newcastle is a beautiful coastal city in north New South Wales. It is approximately two hours north of Sydney, NSW with a population of almost half a million people. Lonely Planet has rated Newcastle a “top city for travel”, it has four times been named a “world festival & events city” by the International Festivals & Events Association and Global magazine National Geographic Traveler named Newcastle one of the world’s top ‘Smart Cities’ to watch in 2017.

纽卡斯尔是一个拥有50万人口，位于新南威尔士州首府悉尼以北约两小时车程的美丽的海滨城市。其地理位置优越，南郊有澳大利亚最大的滨海湖——麦考瑞湖，北部是以冲浪闻名的海港——史蒂芬港，而西部则是具有百年历史的产酒圣地－猎人谷。纽卡斯尔被孤独星球评为绝对不可错过的旅行圣地，其曾四次被国际节日和活动协会评为“世界节日和活动城市”，并被“国家地理旅行者”杂志评为2017年世界顶级“智慧城市”之一。

The evening before the marathon commences, we will host a gala dinner with government officials to welcome the runners. On the day of the competition, we will also hold a 4-6 km fun run as well as some activities for parents and their children to enjoy together. Through participating in these events, those of you who are not professional marathon runners, or even those who have kids to look after are sure to be able to get in on some of the action! It is a great opportunity to make some wonderful memories and to spice up your social media! 

在马拉松比赛前夜，我们与当地政府官员将邀请您共进晚宴以表示对您的欢迎。比赛当日，我们还将额外举办4-6公里的趣味体验跑及一些亲子活动，非专业“跑马”选手或者与孩子同行的您，同样可以通过参加这些活动成为当天朋友圈的“焦点”。
