*The schedule for holding and broadcasting the race is subject to change due to the circumstances of the organizer and broadcasting station.

Although not as strong as last year when marathon world record holder Eliud Kipchoge (Kenya) won the marathon with a time of 2:02:40, which was the best record in Japan, there will be many high-level athletes from overseas this year as well. Four athletes in the 2:04 range are scheduled to participate, led by Sisay Lemma (Ethiopia), who has a personal record of 2:03:36.

However, this time, unlike in the past, when pacemakers were prepared in two to three stages, it was announced that only one pace Japanese record level (1 km 2 minutes 57 to 58 seconds, 2 hours 4 minutes 30 seconds assumed) will be set. Therefore, it is difficult to predict how fast the leading group involved in the battle for victory will develop the race, but in any case, it is inevitable that it will be a high-level battle.

Japanese record holder Kengo Suzuki (Fujitsu) was expected to break his personal record with a time of 2:04:56, but unfortunately, he was forced to withdraw due to injury. However, Japan’s top-level athletes line up at the start line, led by Suguru Osako (Nike), who finished 6th at the Tokyo Olympics with a personal record of 2:05:29, the second fastest in Japan’s history.

Osako, who is attracting attention, participated in the New Year’s Ekiden on New Year’s Day as a member of the GMO Internet Group and finished second in the 3rd section. After that, he trained in Kenya and set his sights on this tournament. He set a personal best in this tournament three years ago and set a new Japanese record at the time, so I think he will aim for a high level of record and ranking.

Since he has not yet obtained the right to participate in the Marathon Grand Championship (MGC), the Paris Olympic marathon representative selection meeting in October 2023, attention is focused on what kind of race plan he will face. Will Osako follow the leading group of foreign competitors from the beginning of the race, or will he focus on endurance in the beginning like in the Tokyo Olympics, and start the race from 30km onwards? In any case, I want you to show your presence with an impactful run.

Hidekazu Hijikata (Asahi Kasei), Kyohei Hosoya (Harima Kurosaki), Hirohito Inoue (Mitsubishi Heavy Industries) have personal bests in the 2:06 range, Yuya Yoshida (GMO Internet Group), Kenya Sonoda (2:07). JR East) has already qualified for MGC. It will be a big highlight if several players join the world-class leading group while making tactics and race plans in anticipation of the MGC performance.

In addition, among the athletes who have excited the Hakone Ekiden in recent years, Tsutomu Yamano (4th year) of Komazawa University, who achieved the triple crown of student Ekiden in 2022, and Yudai Shimazu (4th year) of Soka University, who has established himself at Seed School, will challenge their first marathon.

[Note] Player name (affiliation/age, as of March 5, 2023), PB (personal best time) = hours:minutes: seconds (year of establishment). If the PB is established outside the eligibility period for this tournament (March 2019 to January 2023), the best record during the same period is also listed on the right (* is a half marathon, # is a personal best of 10000m). [MGC] = 2023 Marathon Grand Championship qualifying athlete. The crossed-out lines are the players who decided to withdraw from this tournament.
