Sejong City has no subway; local transit consists of BRT bus lines (B0/B1) and regular city buses, all of which use the same T-money card accepted nationwide (sold and recharged at convenience stores). Many visitors also arrive by car, as Sejong is a newer planned city built around roads and BRT infrastructure rather than rail.
Your start time, fuel and bag drop.
Know them ahead and the run feels easier.
September mornings are cool, but the sun can feel intense during the day.
Bring a light outer layer to take off before the start, along with a hat.
The distance is short and not too demanding, but you should be able to finish comfortably as long as you avoid pace early in the race.
Sejong has excellent facilities, including Sejong Lake Park, the largest artificial lake in South Korea, and walking trails along the Geumgang River.
Times are local to Sejong. Check the latest official information before the race.
