Garmin Run Taipei is the flagship Taiwanese event in the Garmin Run Marathon Series, Garmin’s international road running circuit that brings together runners across Asia and North America. Designed around Garmin’s philosophy of helping athletes improve through technology, the event combines a professionally managed road race with training programs, community runs, exclusive race experiences, and Garmin’s ecosystem of GPS watches and fitness analytics. Whether participants are tackling their first 5K or chasing a personal best in the half marathon, Garmin Run Taipei emphasizes continuous improvement through its “From Zero To Hero” theme while creating an energetic festival atmosphere for runners of all abilities.
The race is held at Dajia Riverside Park in Taipei, Taiwan, one of the city’s premier venues for large-scale road running events. Participants can choose from 5K, 10K, and 21K Half Marathon distances, with the event attracting thousands of runners each year. In addition to race day, Garmin organizes training camps, group runs, overseas race opportunities, and other community activities leading up to the event. Finishers receive exclusive race merchandise and medals, while participants also have the opportunity to earn special Garmin Run Marathon Series recognition by completing races across multiple cities worldwide. The event has become one of Taiwan’s most popular branded running festivals and routinely reaches its participant capacity shortly after registration opens.
