Additional information
To advocate environmental protection, participants who return their bottles at the end of the race to be recycled will receive an additional souvenir.
One highlight of this year's event is that cyber-celebrities are encouraged to take part in the hike and live-stream the day. If you are a popular live streaming host with a number of online fans, the event organizers encourage you to get in touch and enter the chance to win direct event qualification, special equipment, and other goodies.
The hiking event is co-organized by the city's publicity department, office for online affairs, sports bureau, and Wuxi Internet Association. The event's title sponsor is Postal Savings Bank of China but has other major sponsors such as China Life Insurance Wuxi branch and Red Bull.
