第16回 リバーサイドマラソン淀川大会【上流コース】 2026

The Yodogawa Riverside Marathon is a flat race in Osaka City, with this upstream course set for June. It takes place in the Nishishimajima area of Yodogawa River Park, alongside one of Osaka’s main rivers. Organizers describe it as a suitable event for beginners and experienced runners alike. The course features minimal elevation change, making it appropriate for first-time marathoners, steady runners, and those aiming for a personal best. Participants will run along the riverbank, potentially observing wild birds. The race emphasizes "running together" over intense competition, with a stated goal of a 100% finish rate and a broader aim to encourage lifelong sports participation. The Riverside Marathon series also includes other Yodogawa events and a Yamato River race in Osaka.
