About the Event

Kick off the New Year with heat and passion at Japan's premier relay marathon! On February 21, 2027, runners of all ages will gather to compete for the title of top relay team. The race offers a variety of distances to suit every participant’s skill level.
For those looking to challenge themselves over longer distances, there is an option to run in teams covering a total distance of 42.195 kilometers. Each runner pays ¥4000 (¥3000 for elementary and junior high school students). This event promises intense competition as teams strategize their relay exchanges.
In addition to the full marathon relay, there are shorter race options available: a standalone 10km run priced at ¥4000 per participant. The course offers scenic routes through bustling urban areas and quiet residential neighborhoods, providing an engaging experience for runners of all levels.
For families looking to participate together in a more relaxed environment, the 2km family relay is perfect. A single entry fee of ¥3500 allows up to four members to run as a team, making it easy for everyone from young children to grandparents to join in on the fun.
The event not only celebrates athletic achievement but also fosters community spirit and teamwork among participants. Whether you're racing competitively or simply enjoying a day out with family, this relay marathon offers something special for all involved.
Join us at Japan's most anticipated winter running event where every stride is filled with excitement and camaraderie!
