About the Event
This guided training run covers a Tokyo marathon-style route on foot, starting at the Metropolitan Government Building plaza at 9:00 and setting off at 9:20. The route links Asakusa Kaminarimon, Tomioka Hachimangu, Nihonbashi, Ginza, Tokyo Tower, the Imperial Palace and Tokyo Station, which is the finish. Runners can leave the course at Ueno Station (10 km, around 11:00), Ryogoku Station (21 km, around 13:00) or Hamacho Station (30 km, around 15:00), or go the full distance; the day is scheduled to end at 18:00. The pace is roughly 7 to 8 minutes per kilometer, with a convenience-store and toilet stop about every 5 km. The organizer gives a short running lesson before the start, covering stretching, form and running uphill and downhill. Many people join alone, and many first-time 42 km finishers have come through this event. The group does not slow down dramatically to bring everyone to the finish together. Luggage is not transported, so bring a backpack and your own drinks. The distance may be shortened in bad weather or high temperatures. The run goes ahead in rain, but may be cancelled in disaster-level conditions. 100 yen from each entry fee is donated to disaster-hit areas.
