This year, the event takes place on 14-15/11, featuring over 7,000 athletes competing in the 5 km, 10 km, 21 km, and 42 km distances. A 2 km distance is also available for families and children aged 6-15. The start and finish lines are at Phan Ngoc Hien Square (Ca Mau Provincial Convention Center, Le Duan Street, An Xuyen Ward). Miss Y Nhi and Mister Tuan Ngoc serve as the race ambassadors.
A key feature of this year's race is the route, which connects areas rich in Ca Mau's identity. Courses pass through An Xuyen Ward, Ho Thi Ky Commune, and Khanh An Commune, allowing runners to traverse urban roads, cultural and historical sites, the Ca Mau gas-power-fertilizer industrial complex, and roads within the Khanh An industrial park.
“The blend of landscapes, local life, and structures tied to Ca Mau's development offers a unique experience for this year's race route,” the organizing committee stated.
