Tokyo Legacy Half Marathon

How to enter

Online entry via the official race website. Overseas runners can enter the general or sub-elite categories; sub-elite overseas applicants must email proof of their qualifying time record to the entry office after registering.

Entry platform

RUNNET (used for lottery results and some priority entry categories; overseas runners use the international site)

What you need

Must be 18 or older on race day and able to finish within 2:40. Sub-elite overseas runners need a World Athletics Label Road Race official record of sub-1:14:00 (men) or sub-1:40:00 (women) from May 2024–April 2026. Student team entry is open to domestic (Japan) participants only.

Payment

Entry fee is ¥13,200 (including tax and handling fee), plus a 6% payment processing fee. Overseas runners may pay by credit card, PayPal, Alipay, or UnionPay.

Bib pickup

In-person bib pickup (runner reception) is required at MUFG Stadium (National Stadium) on October 16 (Fri) or October 17 (Sat). The runner must attend in person; no race-day pickup is available.

Entry period

General/sub-elite entry runs from May 26 to June 9, 2026. Charity runner entry opened April 15, 2026. Elite/para-athlete entry begins in early July 2026.

Notes

Bib pickup requires the runner's personal attendance on the pre-race days, which means travelling to Tokyo before race day is essential. Lottery results are announced via RUNNET. The race starts and finishes at MUFG Stadium (National Stadium).
