I’m pleased to say that the Nagano Marathon 2009 application is now open. It’s just on its 11th year but already it has been attracting top athletes as well as amateur runners to participate in this great event. Since hosting the Winter Olympic Games in 1998, Nagano has put itself on the map and is dedicated now to promote various sports in the area.
I can see the run being very scenic and tranquil as the course runs through valleys and mountains.
The deadline for foreign application is 27th February 2009 and the joining fee is JPY 6,000. You’ll get a T’shirt before the run and a towel when you finish. It’ll start from Nagano City Athletic Park and finish at The Olympic Stadium on Sunday, 19 April 2009. For more info, please have a look at their website.
