Run & Visit Tokyo
~ Old Tokyo Marathon Discovery ~
I have since 2007 run Tokyo Marathon 5 times.
4 times in February and once held in March .
I have enjoyed its early days and seen it becoming
the World's newest and sixth Marathon Major.
If your dream is to run its course but :
- can't come to Tokyo In February for Official event.
- don't want go through any Tour Operator .
- or with Over 35,000 runners taking part in the Tokyo Marathon every year
it became one of the hardest marathons in the World to gain entry to and were not lucky at Ballot
Then I can help leading you during that most beautfull
42.195 km in Asia, the longest Run and Visit Tokyo Tour.
