This is a one-day-only event following the popular Katsuta Marathon course, known for its cold but stable weather—ideal conditions for aiming for your best time. Enjoy the run with a group, whether or not you plan to join the actual Katsuta Marathon; it's a great way to get used to marathon distances. The course ends at either Tokai Station or Sawa Station, and you can try a fresh seafood rice bowl at the well-known Nakaminato Market nearby. A running lesson is provided before the start. Many participants come alone and everyone can expect to discover something new by joining. You are welcome to leave the course part-way if needed.
