About the Event
This guided training run covers the Kobe Marathon route at an easy pace of about 7 to 8 minutes per kilometer and is not an official event of the race. Many participants come alone, and it is a popular first step for people trying a group practice run. Stations are available almost anywhere along the way, with frequent convenience store breaks, so runners can drop out at any point. The group gathers at 9:00 in front of the ticket gate at Sannomiya Hanadokei-mae Station, where lockers stand outside the gate. A warm-up and running lesson at 9:05 covers running form, uphill and downhill technique and effective stretching. The 10 km option finishes around 11:00 at Sanyo Suma Station, the 20 km option around 13:00 at Asagiri Station, and the 30 km option around 15:00 at Suma Station. The full distance ends back at Sannomiya Hanadokei-mae Station between 17:00 and 18:00. Breaks come about every 40 minutes. No water or food is supplied, and there is no baggage storage, so use station lockers or carry a change of clothes in a backpack. The run goes ahead in rain, but may be shortened or cancelled in extreme weather. Free two-shot photos are offered, and the fee is 3,000 yen.
