Two Sundays ago on 8 April 2018 the 29th Mangyondae Prize International Marathon was held in Pyongyang. Foreign runners joined both local professionals and amateurs in the full-marathon, half-marathon, 10 km, and 5 km races on the city streets.

Below are two local North Korean media videos covering the event, which include some familiar faces.

Below the nightly news report from the Korean Central News Agency (조선중앙방송).

And one from the online DPRK Today (조선의 오늘)' Youtube channel.
