Tokyo redesigns its course for speed

node

The race keeps its start outside the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building but abandons the hilly, exposed final 6 km along the waterfront, moving the finish to Gyoko-dori beside Tokyo Station. Roughly 13 to 14 km of the course is new. Turns and gradient are reduced and the course becomes markedly faster while remaining record-eligible — a city deliberately re-engineering its streets into a faster instrument.

A node is not a place. Drawing it on a map would assert something about the world that no stored fact supports.

  27. From 2017 the Tokyo Marathon kept its start at the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building but replaced the final waterfront section with a finish at Gyoko-dori beside Tokyo Station, changing roughly 13 to 14 km of the course and reducing turns and gradient; the race was first held on 18 February 2007, replacing the Tokyo International Marathon.
