73rd Tsuchiura City Horimaru Marathon (第73回桐生市堀マラソン)

Love Run, an enduring and beloved race that welcomes runners of all kinds, returns on February 14, 2027. Whether you're aiming for personal bests or simply enjoying the run, this historic event offers something unique to every participant.
The race features three distance options: a half marathon (21km), a 10-kilometer course, and a shorter but equally scenic 5-kilometer route designed for families and younger runners. The entry fees are set at ¥3,000 for the half marathon and 10 kilometers, ¥2,500 for the 5k run, and just ¥500 per person for high school students or less and family groups.
The event takes place in a picturesque setting that showcases both urban landscapes and serene natural environments. Runners will experience varied terrain with sections of flat roads, winding paths through parks, and gentle hills that provide challenges while also offering breathtaking views along the way.
Love Run is more than just a race; it’s an opportunity to celebrate fitness and community spirit on Valentine's Day. The atmosphere is festive, with plenty of support from spectators lining the course and volunteers cheering runners on every step of the way.
Participants can look forward to crossing the finish line in style as they are greeted by live music performances and a variety of post-race activities that cater to all ages. Whether you’re running for competition or recreation, Love Run promises an unforgettable experience filled with camaraderie and joy.
