Getting to the start

102 Yeongjongjingwangjang-ro, Paul Frank Cafe area, Yeongjong-gu, Incheon (Yeongjong Island). 2026-08-15 (Sat) 19:30 start, 8.15km course.

Getting to the finish

Same start/finish area (Yeongjongjingwangjang-ro area)

Transit card

Incheon Night Race takes place in Incheon, which is on the same integrated fare network as Seoul, so a T-money card works across Incheon Subway Lines 1/2 and city buses. Cards are purchased/recharged at convenience stores or station kiosks; a single ride runs about 1,400-1,500 KRW.

READY TO RUN

From race morning to after the finish.

Your start time, fuel and bag drop.
Know them ahead and the run feels easier.

It's a midsummer race, and heat and humidity are big factors.

Even with an early start, don't skip water stations, and don't push too hard for a time.

The distance is short and not too demanding;

just avoid going out too fast (over-pace) early and you'll finish comfortably.

Times are local to Incheon. Check the latest official information before the race.
