This service by H.I.S provided an excellent way in which to enter one of Japan's most popular Marathons. The entry provided in English was simple and people were on hand, either before the race by email or on site on the day, to answer my questions. The race is a easy course weaving across Tsuchiura's quiet rural neighborhoods, and coming back alongside the roads next to the lake. Be prepared for wind however, it's definitely a possibility! The race itself was great with cheering spectators everywhere, a massive contingent of runners of all ages and aims, and excellent aid stations!
