Taking place on September 7 and 8, 2024, the "green race" Green Can Gio Marathon HDBank 2024 has left a lasting impression on thousands of participants and the running community because of its values of sportsmanship regardless of age, inspiring the community to protect the environment, spreading the tradition of drinking water and remembering its source, and promoting local tourism.
