Hope they weren't carrying those flags all the way
It was the Lanzhou International Marathon a few weeks ago. Owen wanted to run, but it wasn't to be. We saw the runners go past just after the start then watched on the big screen in the Square. When we began to wilt we went to a coffee shop (with a good loo) to get off our feet for a bit and discovered they had a big screen set up. We had the place to ourselves (!) and were able to watch till the lead runners approached, then dashed out onto the street to see them past the 41km mark. A pleasant morning (apart from the long walk home - no bus due to road closures) the more so for me having Owen as fellow spectator after years of standing on the roadside on my own.
