沙漠马拉松守护热爱

### English Translation Title: Desert Marathon Safeguarding Our Passion

News Summary: On June 27, the 2026 Ningxia‑Zhongwei Desert Star Half‑Marathon kicked off in the dunes. At the same time, Ningxia Sports Lottery launched its “Buy with Confidence, Protect What You Love” brand campaign. The event wove a spirit of public service and responsible lottery play into the race, giving runners and visitors an immersive cultural, sporting, and charitable experience.

After the race, finishers engraved their medals in the “Lottery Support – Capturing the Glory” area, and many kept the charity logo together with memories of their desert trek. On‑site activities such as penalty‑kick soccer, mini‑golf putting, and fun ring‑toss games, along with a World Cup‑themed responsible‑lottery guide and prize‑claim services, delivered messages about preventing illegal gambling and encouraging sensible play in everyday language. Night‑time star‑filled camps and a music carnival subtly wove the brand’s message into the crowd.

Reflection and Insight: Events that combine sport, culture, and charity do more than promote a product; they remind us to treat public matters with honesty and mutual help. Guarding what we love means protecting not only our own enjoyment but also looking out for others, keeping illegal channels and reckless behavior at bay.

May we, in our daily lives, practice a little more vigilance and responsibility—treating community affairs as we would treat family—so we can enjoy joy while passing steadiness and integrity to the next generation.

Scripture: Matthew 7:12 “So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you, for this is the law and the prophets.”
