Set in the seaside city of Da Nang, the DNIM will take place on 31 August 2014 at Da Nang city, and over 4,500 international and local runners are expected to join in.

In 2013, the race received a strong response of 4,000 athletes from 63 provinces and cities in Vietnam and nearly 30 countries around the world. Harvesting from the success of the first Marathon season, the Da Nang International Marathon this year will be organized with larger range, more professional quality, and promises to bring a strong, wide and deep integration for Vietnam’s sports.
