The 2018 CFLD Beijing Marathon took place in Beijing on Sunday, September 16, with over 30,000 runners from around the world participating in the capital city of China. Ping An Insurance sponsored the event for the first time as the Official Partner of the event. 

Ping An is an Official Partner of the Beijing Marathon from 2018 to 2020, a third tier sponsor after the title sponsor, CFLD and top sponsors Adidas and Beijing Hyundai. 

Ping An provided a 260-member team to serve the event. These people included medical staff and service staff. The company also organized a charity running group to donate running miles to Ping An’s rural area health check campaign. This campaign already has 1.02 million participants from 382 cities. In the future Ping An plans to carry out its campaign promise by providing 100,000 health checks to people in rural areas. After the Shenzhen International Marathon, another marathon event sponsored by Ping An Insurance which takes place at the end of 2018, Ping An plans to publish a white paper on health statistics in rural areas in China, based on the health checks they carry out under this campaign.
