"A city full of poetry, half a city lake light half a city forest", the track full of poetry and beauty amazed the participants of the Chizhou Marathon, and the track setting of "East Lake West Village" made them feast their eyes. The 2019 Chizhou International Marathon ended on October 20, with nearly 15,000 people taking part in the race, with runners running forward on a poetic track.

Landscape poetry is the key word of Chizhou, and this "Chima" track fully demonstrates the rich history and culture of our city. More than 300,000 square meters of ornamental flowers such as pertussis and willow leaf verbena were planted in suitable places on both sides of the "Chima" track, and the famous poems and famous sentences were set up and the poetic punch card was set up, and many drumming and refueling nodes such as Chengguan Primary School were set up, focusing on creating a poetic road section, so that the majority of runners could feel the different style on the track, experience the romantic feelings of the flower sea of "chima", appreciate the cultural heritage of Chizhou, and create the "most beautiful water track", "the most beautiful flower sea track" and "the most beautiful poetic track".

This year's "Pond Horse" runs along the Pingtian Lake and Xinghua Village Track, which is full of poetry. "The water is like a horse training, this place is the flat sky" is Li Bai rafting Pingtian Lake, sighing the beauty of Pingtian Lake, running along Pingtian Lake, looking at the water from a distance, watching the lake and mountains, listening to birds singing and herons flying. "Ask where the restaurant is, the shepherd boy remotely refers to the apricot blossom village" is Du Mu's exclamation of Qingming, and the contestants run along the footsteps of the poet on the xinghua village track, enjoying the beautiful scenery of the sea of flowers and chanting ancient and modern verses.

The Pingtian Lake Water Circuit is beautiful. In the construction of the track, the "pond horse" takes the most beautiful as the standard, highlights the cultural characteristics of Chizhou, optimizes the setting of the Pingtian Lake water circuit, puts refueling subtitles on the LED display screens such as the Pingtian Lake Area and the Qishan Mountain Scenic Area, uses the display board to put out the slogan of "water is like a horse, this place is Pingtian", pastes the poem "Borrow the restaurant where there is, the shepherd boy remotely refers to the apricot blossom village", and organizes more than 20 people to hold banners and cheer flowers to cheer for the participating athletes.

The internal track of the xinghuacun cultural tourism zone is set up with "poetic apricot blossom village" as the key word, and the exhibition board is displayed with "a poem is passed down for a thousand years, a village is famous in the world", and the "five saints" wear ancient costumes to beat the drum ("five saints" refer to "Lang Sui, Prince Zhaoming, Li Bai, Du Mu, shepherd boy"), and paste on the road with verses such as "Ask where the restaurant is, the shepherd boy refers to the apricot blossom village", "The apricot blossom branch has a spring breeze, the ten mile tobacco village is red", "to ask where the wine is sold, the bamboo fence goes west to xiaoqiaodong".

"Chima" runner Wang Xia said: "The Chizhou Marathon Track is beautiful, Xicun East Lake, there are mountains and water, there are poems and distant places, there are beautiful scenery and refueling, there is history and culture, there are enthusiastic Chizhou people, next time will come." ”
