The 34th Fukuchiyama Marathon is a flat out-and-back road marathon along the Yura River through northern Kyoto's autumn foliage, starting and finishing at Sandanike Park, with a 6-hour time limit and a field size of ~6,000 runners.

Why attend here

Running along the Yura River in late November means crisp air, golden foliage, and a peaceful rural route through farmland and valley views that feel a world away from city marathons. Afterward, warm up with a bowl of locally made yuba (tofu skin) or a hot pot in central Fukuchiyama, and take a slow stroll through the old castle town streets to soak in the quiet, off-season charm.
