Inclusive Tokyo Marathon

The Tokyo Marathon is making strides in inclusivity by adding a nonbinary option for the 2025 race. This move follows the lead of other major marathons and aims to create a more inclusive event. 🌈💪 The change will be implemented in the registration process starting August, allowing participants to select male, female, or nonbinary.

The Tokyo Marathon Foundation, with guidance from Pride House Tokyo, is also introducing nongender specific changing rooms and toilets to ensure all runners feel welcome. Additionally, they are trialing a “duo team” entry for runners with disabilities. 👟👫

How will these changes impact the experience for all participants? 🤔
