TOKYO MARATHON 2016

[Marsha Horiuchi of Edo] March 5, 2016 16:00

February 28 was the world-class "Tokyo Marathon", with about 37,000 runners participating for the 10th time since it started in 2007.
It can be said that this event is made up of consistent cooperation from all over Japan. This year, we were blessed with good weather and out of about 10,000 volunteers.
As the number of foreign runners has increased, multilingual volunteers have been set up to enhance hospitality.
It was truly fun to interact with each player, Switzerland, the United States, Taiwan, U.K., Italy, China, Indonesia, etc.
I thought Sweden, Canada, Malaysia, and the Japanese were all lively and vital to each other.
Many foreigners have the word well-organized, and I think that the word "tired" suits many people.

 

The competition includes a full marathon, 10 km, wheelchair, and its course includes many tourist attractions.

 

Shinjuku Metropolitan Government Office → Iidabashi (5 km) → Perimeter of the Imperial Palace → Takebashi, Hibiya Park (10 km) → Zojoji, Shinagawa (15 km, turning point)
→Ginza → Nihonbashi, Kayabacho (25 km) → Senso-ji Temple → Hamacho Park → Tsukiji (35 km) → Tsukuda-ohashi Bridge, Harumi Bridge
→Toyosu → Ariake → It is Tokyo Big Sight (goal).

 

Thank you for the first day of spring.
