The race starts on Hibiya-dori, the street used by the first and tenth legs of the Hakone Ekiden. It runs past Minato Ward's old temples and its dense high-rise district. The half marathon and youth run finish at Tokyo Tower, and the half marathon closes over a final steep climb.
Expect a dramatic finish at Tokyo Tower after a tough final steep climb.
