Kobe Marathon

Based on the theme of "gratitude and friendship," the Kobe Marathon aims not just to run, but to "run for the people." It aims to share with the world the image of Kobe, which has recovered from the Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake, and the lessons it has learned, and to convey gratitude for the support it has received from both within Japan and overseas, while placing importance on the awareness that everyone is part of it. A major attraction of the event is that it allows runners to share their joy and sense of unity not only with each other, but also with those who are cheering them on. It is a special event where you can feel the feelings of those who overcame the disaster and the importance of supporting each other while running through the beautiful scenery of Kobe.
