The New Taipei City Wan Jin Shi Marathon (Chinese: 新北市萬金石馬拉松) is the first and only one IAAF Silver Label Road Race in Taiwan.

New Taipei City government started to work with Chinese Taipei Athletics Association in 2014 and applied for IAAF Bronze label. The race was awarded Bronze label in October in 2014, and was upgraded to IAAF Silver Label in December 2017.[1][2] In November 2022, it was risen to Gold Label by IAAF.[3]

The 2020 edition of the race was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic, with all registered runners automatically deferred to the 2021 edition without additional payment.[4]
