The Chrysanthemum Island Penghu Cross-Sea Marathon is Taiwan's only cross-sea and island-hopping resort-style running event featuring a non-return course that passes through scenic bays and the Penghu Great Bridge.
What this race demands
The 2026 Chrysanthemum Island Penghu Cross-Sea Marathon demands endurance across a full 42.2-kilometer non-return island-hopping course.
Aerobic endurance
Covering the full 42.2-kilometer marathon distance requires a high level of aerobic capacity and sustained cardiovascular output.
Structural durability
The continuous forward progression over a long-distance running event places significant repetitive impact stress on the lower limbs and joints.
A sustained running effort lasting several hours requires an intake of 60 to 90 grams of carbohydrates per hour to maintain glycogen stores and performance.
