On February 14, 2027, runners will have the opportunity to experience the stunning beauty of Setouchi's coastline during this picturesque race. The course features breathtaking views and challenging terrain that cater to both seasoned athletes and casual joggers alike.
Participants can choose between a 15km route or a more relaxed 5km option, each offering unique highlights along the way. After crossing the finish line, runners are treated to a hearty serving of "Tengu Udon," a nutritious noodle dish packed with ten local ingredients including rare varieties like Kinshi Imo and Kinshi Ginseng — both specialties from Sakaide.

This race is not just about running; it's an experience that celebrates local culture and cuisine while providing runners with an unforgettable day in one of Japan’s most scenic regions.
