Zhang Huimin took part in Xiamen International Marathon last April, and she finished the race in 3 hours and 44 minutes.
 
Chinanews, Haikou, June 14 - Zhang Huiming, an 8-year-old girl from Hainan Province, will start her long-distance running from Sanya in Hainan to Beijing with her father on July 3, after finishing her examinations in school, which will be an ultimate challenge to both her body and mind.

 

Zhang finished her long-distance running around the Hainan Island in last January, which was about 840 km. This time, they plan to spend 2 months to run across Hainan, Guangdong, Jiangsu, Anhui, Shandong, Hebei provinces and finally to Beijing. Her journey will cover 59 counties and 361 villages.

 

"There will be held a Marathon in Langfang, Heibei Province on August 15, and we will try our best to make it there on time to take part in the race, if the organizers allow us to," said Zhang Jianmin, the father.

 

The Zhangs have prepared a flag and a banner for the journey, during which they will ask local governments to affix1 stamps on the banner, and they plan to send the banner to the Organizing Committee of the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games as a gift.

 

Zhang Jianmin's action has aroused widespread concern for his pushing his little daughter to take part in various distance races, including the Xiamen International Marathon last April, when Zhang Huimin finished the race in 3 hours and 44 minutes, a really amazing result.
