Description:

This tournament is already sold out.
The next entry is supposed to start around September 2019.

In Beppu Oita Mainichi marathon (then Beppu marathon) in 1952 during the postwar reconstruction period, Mr. Yasuo Ikenaka (deceased) from Nakatsu city, Oita Prefecture, who served as coach for the Olympic representative, said, “To open the way to the Olympics I would like to hold a nationwide competition locally in the city. ”

Initially it started ahead of Beppu station, it was a 35 km course that folded Shiraki Oita city.
In the following 53 year twice tournament it is changed to a full marathon. It began to be called Japan’s three major classic races with the “Biwa Lake Mainichi Marathon” (then Mainichi Marathon), which began in 46 years, and the “Fukuoka International Marathon” (then Asahi Marathon) that began in 1974.

In the 12th tournament tournament, Toru Terazawa establishes the world record of 2 hours 15 minutes 15 seconds 8, which is 0 second 4 more than Abebe’s record.
This record is the last marathon world record recorded by Japanese athletes in the domestic race.
After that, Terasawa accomplished four consecutive victories until the competition 15 times.

Kimihara Kenji won the domestic highest of 2 hours 13 minutes 33 seconds 4 in the 67th year 16th competition, Sou Shigeru won 2 hours 9 minutes 5 seconds 6 at the 27th rally in 78 years, the first “10-minute wall” I broke.

In the course to arrive and depart from the Oita municipal track and field stadium from 33 times in 1984. Mr. Morishita Kouichi won the race at 2 hours 8 minutes 53 seconds to markedly update the first marathon record at the 40th competition in 1991, leading to the silver medal of the Barcelona Olympics in 1992.

From the 50th memorial tournament in 2001 it was the race for the world championship selection.
Started in front of Takasakiyama · Umitamago in Oita city from the event for 10 years 59 times and changed significantly to the course to finish to Oita municipal track and field stadium. From the next 60 tournaments, the marathon was relaxed within 3 hours and 30 minutes, and the girls also opened the door.

In the 12th 62th tournament, Yuuki Kawanai (Saitama Prefectural Government Office) and Kentaro Nakamoto (Yaskawa Electric) deploy intense dead heat from 28 kilograms past 40 kilometers. Kawachi won the tournament record for the first time in 17 years, 2 hours 8 minutes 15 seconds, Nakamoto also entered second place at his best 2 hours 8 minutes 35 seconds, both of whom won the title of the world championship.

In the 16th year 65th tournament, it changed to a course that makes it easy to get a good record by eliminating the blind alley in Oita city and reducing the height difference of the final stage. We also held a marathon national election visit to the Rio de Janeiro-Paralympic Games.

34 years old veteran, Kentaro Nakamoto (YASKAWA Electric Co., Ltd.) won the first victory with a favorable time of 2 hours, 9 minutes and 32 seconds in the 17th 66th tournament. Nakamoto is the first vertex of the marathon for the 14th time. He was also chosen as representative of the world championship London tournament.
