Couples Pair Category
Official Partner Accommodations
The Couples Run category was introduced in 2017 as part of Tsumagoi Village’s long-running tourism initiative celebrating time spent together as a couple.
Building on the village’s reputation as a place dedicated to cherishing one’s partner, this special race category invites all types of couples to run side by side through the scenic highlands of Tsumagoi.
We encourage couples to join not only the race itself, but also to take time to explore Tsumagoi at a relaxed pace—creating meaningful memories together in a place known for celebrating love and partnership.
