Report a correctionAbout this race
Staged each mid-October in Gyeongju, South Korea's ancient Silla capital, the Dong-A Ilbo race starts and finishes at Gyeongju Civic Stadium and threads a mostly flat city loop past UNESCO Silla relics -- the Daereungwon royal tomb mounds, the Cheomseongdae observatory and the Donggung Palace and Wolji Pond. First run in 1993, international since 2006 and a World Athletics Elite Label race from 2025, it caps the field at 15,000 and offers full, half and 10K under clear autumn skies.
