Indigenous runners from Mexico are world-class runners and have the medals to.prove it.

At the 23rd edition of the Great Wall of China Marathon, five Indigenous athletes from Mexico earned an outstanding five-medal finish: two gold medals 🥇, two silver medals 🥈, and one bronze medal 🥉. Competing against runners from across the globe, the athletes delivered a remarkable performance in one of the world’s most demanding endurance races.

The marathon was held at the Huangyaguan Pass in Tianjin along the historic Great Wall of China route, famous for its extreme difficulty and breathtaking scenery. Participants faced a grueling course featuring 5,164 stone steps, steep climbs, and challenging descents that test even elite runners. More than 2,000 athletes from over 60 countries and regions took part in this year’s event, making the achievement of the Mexican Indigenous runners even more significant. 🌎🏃🔥
