Launched in 2012, the Nagoya Women's Marathon is certified by Guinness

celebration and joy, Baccarat will celebrate the moment of the emotional
finish with a special tumbler in their signature red box.
The Nagoya Women's Marathon is regarded by many, if not most, female
runners as the best event for women runners of all ages and levels of
running experience to safely enjoy marathon running and create lifetime
memories, with its unique features and hospitality as well as the
thoroughly prepared medical system and the number of temporary toilets (and
their cleanliness!)
The theme of the Nagoya Women's Marathon 2025 is "Connections Beyond the
Finish Line." Why don't you come to Japan next spring, finish the race with
20,000 other female runners, and make a memorable toast after the finish?
The overseas entries are scheduled to open from Thursday, September 5,
2025, to Wednesday, September 25, 2025. For more information on the race

About the Nagoya Women's Marathon
The Nagoya Women's Marathon is the largest women's marathon in the world,
certified by Guinness World Records with 21,915 participants in 2018, held
annually in March in Nagoya City, Japan. It was launched on March 11, 2012,
with 13,114 participants, reformed from the Nagoya International Women's
Marathon, the elite-only women's race known as the qualifying trial that
had sent off many Japanese star athletes to the international competitions,
including two Olympic gold medalists Naoko Takahashi and Mizuki Noguchi. It
holds the World Athletics Platinum Label status and has now grown to an
event of 20,000 participants. For playing a significant role in the
increase of the women runner population in Japan, the race was awarded the
International Olympic Committee Women and Sport Achievement Diploma in
2019, after receiving the Japan Olympic Committee Women and Sport Award in
2017.
