【第104回】MxKディスタンストライアルin世田谷＜非公認大会＞ 2026

The MxK Distance Trial in Setagaya is a track meet held at Setagaya Athletics Stadium in Okura, Tokyo. It features races over 1500m, 3000m, and 5000m. This series has surpassed its 100th event and is designed for runners aiming for specific times, not for casual participation. Fields are typically small to medium, ranging from 100 to 499 participants, with an intermediate to advanced level. The official division requires federation registration and shoes with soles no thicker than 20mm, as it is sanctioned by the athletics federation. Runners unable to meet these requirements can participate in the non-sanctioned division. All races take place on the stadium track, with judges providing manual electrical timing and pacers available for various target times. The official target times are under 4:30 for the 1500m, under 11:00 for the 3000m, and under 17:00 for the 5000m. Team MxK organizes the meet, supported by MK Club, typically starting with non-sanctioned races before proceeding to sanctioned heats. The event offers runners a controlled track environment, pacers, seeded heats, and an opportunity to achieve personal or season bests without the congestion of road races.
