Odaiba Ekiden Festival

Construction for the 2020 Olympics hasn't even started in honest, but Odaiba has already gained a reputation as a centre for Tokyo sports. This event further enhances that image, as hundreds of runners take over Symbol Promenade Park for a Japanese-style ekiden, a race featuring teams of two to six participants completing a 25km-course relay-style. There will also be solo, kids', and family races, so anyone is welcome to participate – the Hooters girls have already signed up! Note that registration is tentatively open until April 5, but will close as soon as the maximum amount of participants has been reached.
