Terrain
The Kimimachi Futatsui Marathon starts and finishes in front of the Futatsui Town General Gymnasium in Noshiro, Akita Prefecture, and offers a half marathon, a 10km and three 4km categories on the same day. The half marathon carries a 2 hour 30 minute limit with cut-off points at 16.7km and 18.3km, while the 10km and 4km races run without a time limit. There is no check-in desk: number cards, timing chips and prize vouchers are posted to runners beforehand, so race day begins with prize collection at the gymnasium before the first start at 09:25. Every entrant receives a T-shirt and a shopping voucher usable at the venue, finishers are served rice balls, Shirakami spring onions and bananas, and a local product fair runs alongside the racing. Half marathon and 10km finishers also enter a draw for places at the Ome and Sapporo marathons.
