The 2026 Kanazawa Marathon is an urban park loop race through Kanazawa's historic streets and beautiful Kenroku-en Garden area, with some rolling hills passing samurai and geisha districts. It is a Boston Qualifier and has a field size of ~15,000 runners with a 7-hour time limit.

Why attend here

Autumn in Kanazawa is crisp and golden, making the rolling course through historic samurai and geisha districts a scenic, comfortable run. Afterward, wander the meticulously kept Kenroku-en Garden, one of Japan's three great landscape gardens, and warm up with a bowl of local jibuni duck stew or sake from the city's famed breweries.
