---

The Beppu-Oita Mainichi Marathon is a JAAF-certified elite race along Beppu Bay, one of Japan's Three Classics, with a sub-3:30 entry standard. The course is a fast, flat, out-and-back road course along the shore of Beppu Bay between Oita and Beppu, with Mt Tsurumi rising behind the coastal cities. The race has a noon start and a strict time limit of 3 hours 30 minutes.

Why attend here

Run a flat, sea-level course between Oita and Beppu with Mt Tsurumi as your backdrop, then soak in one of Japan's most famous hot spring towns. February brings crisp, clear air and fewer crowds, perfect for exploring Beppu's steam-veiled jigoku (hell) ponds and savoring a bowl of rich, local toriten chicken tempura.
