Run a flat Pacific-coast marathon in subtropical Miyazaki on Dec 13, 2026, cheered by 2,500 high-schoolers along the Tropical Road. First-come entry, 6h20m limit.
In December, Miyazaki's mild, dry weather makes for ideal running along the palm-lined Tropical Road, with the Pacific breeze and the cheers of 2,500 student volunteers keeping you company. After the race, warm up with a bowl of Miyazaki's famous chicken nanban and visit the iconic Aoshima shrine, just steps from the finish.

The route runs out from the Hinata Miyazaki Prefectural Sports Park through the city center and Miyazaki Shrine area, then south down the palm-lined Tropical Road toward Aoshima island before turning back to the same stadium finish. Runners follow the palm-lined Tropical Road with the Pacific on one side and are cheered the whole way by roughly 2,500 high-school student volunteers, whose taiko, dance and shouting squads have become the event's signature.
