Join us for one of the world’s most iconic races — the TOKYO MARATHON 2027, part of the prestigious Abbott World Marathon Majors. This unforgettable event combines vibrant cityscapes, deep cultural heritage, and the incredible energy of local supporters.

Your marathon journey begins at the Metropolitan Government Office in Shinjuku and takes you past some of Tokyo’s most famous landmarks, including the Imperial Palace and Tokyo Tower. A true bucket-list experience, the TOKYO MARATHON 2026 is your chance to achieve something extraordinary while supporting vital research into neurological conditions.

Whether you’re an experienced marathoner or taking on your very first 26.2, this is your chance to be part of something unforgettable.

By joining #TeamBrainResearchUK, you’ll make your miles matter. Each step you take, each mile you conquer, helps fund vital research that brings hope to everyone affected by neurological conditions.

We’llbe with you from the first training run to the finish line, with:

  • A tailored training and fundraising journey to help you reach the start line
  • Ongoing support and tailored resources from our expert fundraising team
  • A Brain Research UK running vest or t-shirt to wear with pride on race day
