About this race
The Poi Harbor Sunset Marathon is an evening running event held at Poi Shiosai Park on Port Island in Kobe’s Chuo Ward. It features 10 km and 5 km road races, both open to participants aged 16 and older, with the program scheduled from late afternoon into early evening.
Both distances involve a short adjusted section and laps of a 1.4 km circuit, keeping runners near the waterfront park rather than on a long point-to-point course. The 10 km race has a 1 hour 30 minute time limit, and the 5 km race has a 50 minute limit, positioning it as a compact local event for casual runners, joggers, and those seeking a shorter summer race by Kobe’s harbor.
