About the Kobe Marathon
The Kobe Marathon is one of Japan's major city marathons, held each November in the port city of Kobe in Hyogo Prefecture. The 42.2 km race runs on an AIMS-certified course through the city, with strong local crowd support throughout. Entries are popular, and the event is a key part of the autumn marathon season in the Kansai region. With mild late-autumn weather and a well-organised race, it is a great option for runners looking for a Japanese marathon experience outside Tokyo and Osaka.
