<p>Also Abraham it's a very fast course. So if you want to run a great time this could be the race for you as you'll be running in a high quality field.</p>
<p>Interestingly Australian athletes have run very well there: Pat Carroll won it one year in 2:09. And other fellow countrymen have had big breakthroughs; a chap called Nick Harrison surprised everyone by finishing 3rd in a best time of 2:10 ( I think his previous best time was 2:14) and last year Jeff Hunt finished 3rd on his debut in…</p>

<p>So it's a high quality race but a great event to run your best time. In fact I'm thinking of running it next year which would mean missing out on Kanagwe</p> Yes, Owain said it all.

Yes, Owain said it all. And unfortunately, mid-sized races in Japan don't have prizes.... But still, really hope you make it to Tokyo to run with us, and if it's just for the glory! Keep us posted!

<p>Hi Abraham,</p>
<p>The good news is that it is a very good race; one of the top ones. However it always attracts world class runners and is usually won in 2:10. In fact a regular competitor is Daniel Njenga. In order to get a prize you would need to run well under 2:20.</p>

I am planning on running a marathon in Japan in 2012 and was considering Beppu is the qualification time going back to 2.50 next year?

It was 2hr 57; fairly even splits, the last 5km was around 30secs slower than the first 5km, so overall quite smooth.
