Concept
|
Rather than a competition of speed, the course concept is one of "racing along the river bank, dashing through the fields and running on the back roads," running through Obuse while enjoying its sights. While running along river banks and rice paddies and through residential areas, enjoy meeting volunteers and residents of Obuse.
