The Fast Lane
Runners come to the Tokyo Half Marathon for one reason: personal bests. The flat, fast course through Tokyo has a reputation as a PB factory, with the roads seemingly designed to keep your pace honest and your splits consistent from start to finish.
The Lottery
Getting into the Tokyo Half Marathon is a race before the race. The entry lottery draws far more applicants than available spots, and the notification email — accepted or rejected — has become an annual ritual that defines the running calendars of thousands.
The Crowd Energy
With 30,000 finishers and spectators lining the course deep, the Tokyo Half Marathon generates an atmosphere that carries runners through the hard miles. The crowd support in Tokyo is not polite applause — it's visceral, personal, and often the difference between hitting the wall and breaking through it.
