The page announces the 29th Nagano Marathon on April 18, 2027, and mentions that the 28th race has concluded. It describes the race as having 10,000 runners running through the spring Shinshu road, and notes a course change due to construction. It also mentions a special guest, a theme song, and a welcome festival.

Why attend here

Nagano in mid-April is the tail end of cherry blossom season, so you can pair your marathon with a stroll through the historic Zenko-ji temple grounds under the last of the petals. The course winds through the spring Shinshu countryside, where the air is crisp and the mountains are still snow-capped, making it a scenic, serene backdrop for a race. Afterward, warm up with a bowl of shinshu soba and a glass of local sake, both specialties of the region.
