The "Ark Tategamori Gotsuo Ekiden" is being held to commemorate the "10th Tategamori Gotsuo Marathon" in February 2025, and is the first relay race in the Tategamori area, with four people passing a sash over a 21.2km round trip course. You can enjoy the event with your fellow runners, which is a popular feature of the "Gotsuo Marathon" with plenty of treats (gottsuo). This is also the organizers' first time holding the event, so beginner runners are also welcome.

The relay race course is set up as follows: Section 1 is a 4.0km downhill run on the Tategamori Plateau, Sections 2 and 3 are flat but long distances of 6.5km, and Section 4 is an anchor, a 4.2km uphill run on the Tategamori Plateau. You can enjoy the relay race while taking in the nature in the fresh air of the Tategamori area, which overlooks the majestic Ou Mountains in the distance.

By the way, "Gotsuo" means "feast," and we have prepared a meal (Restaurant Till's Buffet) that makes generous use of produce from Ark Tategamori, as well as treats to eat during the relay race.We have also included a hot spring bath after the race, and all of this has been packaged as a special gift for the four participants.

We welcome not only those with extensive running experience, but also those who are interested in running but have little experience, to join us as a way to enjoy leisure time with your family and friends!
