First Beijing Aesthetic Marathon calling for Runners
July 14th, 2008I have participated in the First Beijing City Aesthetic Marathon today, running for about 20 minutes through the hutongs and markets around Tianshuiyuan. The Beijing City Aesthetic Marathon is an art project initiated by HOIO (Samuel Herzog). It’s a sportive challenge and a way to discover Beijing at the same time. The 42.195 kilometres of the Marathon are run in sections by different persons. Every runner is asked to take HOIO into the part of Beijing they consider the most beautiful and exciting route through the city. Sections can be as short as one kilometre and as long as what can be done by a person in one hour (that’s the maximum battery lifetime of the camera). Each run is filmed by Samuel Herzog. You can see an overview of the previous runs here.
Samuel Herzog will be in Beijing until Saturday July 19th, if you are interested in taking him through your favorite part of Beijing, you can contact him at hoio[at]bluewin.ch.
