This race takes place on the Yodogawa riverbank in Osaka, on a 10 km loop starting and finishing in front of the baseball fields of Yodogawa Riverside Park Nishinakajima. The course varies by no more than 2 m in elevation and is certified by both the Japan Association of Athletics Federations and World Athletics. Events are the full marathon, 30 km, half marathon, 10K, 5K and 1 mile. Twelve pacer groups cover full marathon times from 2:30 to 4:20. Water stations stand every 3 to 4 km with sports drink, water and salt tablets, and food such as sports yokan is served once per 10 km. Runners line up five minutes before the start, so warming up is possible until the last moment. The main races start at 9:30 and the 1 mile at 9:35. Fees are 11,000 yen for the full marathon, 7,700 yen for the 30 km and half marathon, 5,500 yen for the 10K, and 3,300 yen for the 5K and 1 mile. The race is part of the R.LEAGUE ranking series and is affiliated with TEAM ONE TOKYO, a registered program from the Tokyo Marathon Foundation that offers a chance at Tokyo Marathon entry. Entries close one week before the race.
