The Kanazawa Ecomarathon located in the beautiful city of Kanazawa, in the Ishikawa PrefectureJapan 🇯🇵 is a must-attend event for every runner 🏃‍♂️. The event, taking place in September 🍂, offers 3 timed races ⏱️ of 5 km, 10 km and 21 km. Whether you’re a beginner or used to it, you’ll have the chance to run along the bike path that runs beside the Sai-gawa River 🎣.

You’ll start at 11:00, and since the races are limited to 200 participants in total, you won’t have to worry about getting stepped on at the start 🤓.

With several other sporting events organized, especially in the prefectures of Saitama, Osaka, Hiroshima, Kyoto and Kumamoto (but mainly in Tokyo 🌸) the Ecomarathon is positioned as an organization that cares about the environment 🌳 and is engaged in various causes 🎗️. This year, you can donate to the International Association for Refugees Support : Second Harvest Japan. As Japan’s leading food bank, the organization is committed to ensuring everyone has access to food 🍲.
