护士张水华夺冠

2026年1月1日，元旦当天，在黑龙江佳木斯市抚远市举办的2026年东极抚远新年马拉松中，“最快女护士”张水华跑出2小时53分54秒的成绩，获得女子组第一名。此前她在采访时表示“希望领导支持调休跑马拉松”曾引起轩然大波。

Zhang Shuihua, a nurse whose plea for workplace support to run marathons sparked nationwide debate last year, started 2026 by winning the women's full marathon at the Dongji Fuyuan New Year Marathon on Jan 1.

The runner, dubbed "the fastest nurse" by Chinese media, crossed the finish line with a time of 2:53:54, securing first place in the women's division and breaking the event's previous women's course record of 3:20:02.

据多家媒体报道，8月31日，张水华参加哈尔滨马拉松，以2小时35分27秒刷新个人最好成绩，获得女子国内第一名，而她在赛后接受采访时所说的“希望领导支持调休跑马拉松”的话引起轩然大波，此后一直受到高度关注，“调休”问题多次成为热点。张水华还因此清空了其社交平台的所有作品。

Zhang's victory comes months after she stirred significant public discussion following her win at the Harbin Marathon in August 2025. After setting a personal best of 2:35:27, her post-race comment expressing a hope that her "work supervisors would support adjusting her shifts for marathon participation" went viral, turning her into an unwitting representative for discussion around work-life balance and "leave culture" in China. The attention led her to clear all content from her social media platforms.

极目新闻记者注意到，2025年12月29日，张水华在其社交平台上发布视频称，她将参加2026年东极抚远新年马拉松，这次她参加的是全程组，并配文称“把旧年的疲惫，甩在身后；把新年的晨光，穿在身上”。

Prior to the New Year marathon, Zhang broke her social media silence on Dec 29 with a short video announcement confirming her participation. The post was captioned: "Leave the weariness of the old year behind; wear the dawn light of the new year."

According to the official race information, the marathon started at 7 am in Binjiang Park in Fuyuan city, Northeast China's Heilongjiang province. The full marathon course ended in Dongji village.

1月1日，极目新闻记者发现，8时57分左右，位于此次马拉松女子全程组第2名的张水华在30公里附近完成了身位超越，成为女子全程组第1名。

In the final stages of the race, tracking data showed Zhang, who was running in second place for much of the event, making a decisive move to take the lead around the 30-kilometer mark.

9时53分54秒，张水华成功越过终点，夺得2026年东极新年马拉松女子全程组第1名，同时打破了女子马拉松赛会纪录，这意味着她将获得15000元的总奖金。
