In a marathon, in addition to the runners, the supply stations and the enthusiastic spectators, have you ever noticed the large makeshift tents? They are not just built, let’s talk about these “auxiliary structures”!
Marathon tents, there are so many uses!
Multi-functional frame tent
At the 7 a.m. starting point, rows of white tents stand out. These are not just any tents, but specially designed security clearance tents. Dual channel design + anti-collision fence, can pass 200 people per minute, faster than the subway security!
Run to five kilometers, see the blue tent means the supply station. These depot tents are stocked with energy gels, bananas and energy drinks, and staff can hand out a bottle of water in 3 seconds, more efficiently than a convenience store!
After crossing the finish line, the Red Cross medical tent is a “safe haven” for runners. There are not only ice packs and massage tables, but professional doctors on standby. At last year’s Shanghai Marathon, tents like this saved 23 runners from cramping.
Excellent ability to frame tents
These tents are not a few poles and a piece of cloth.
Wind resistance: able to withstand a force 8 gale (equivalent to the weather that can blow an umbrella over)
Sun protection and breathable : double layer design, outside to 40℃, inside can maintain 28℃
Fast Changing Frame Tent
Two hours after the race, the depot tent became a parcel storage tent; After the awards ceremony, it was turned into a recycling depot.
Tents with colorful logos are “mobile billboards” for sponsors.
According to statistics, a live marathon camera will give these tents at least 3 minutes close-up!
When you run a marathon, keep an eye out for these silent “framed party tents.”
