We ask participants to wear most of theclothes they plan to wear in the race from theirresidence or lodging to the venue, and recommendthat they use the changing rooms primarily to remove
cold-weather clothing.

Measures Against the Cold

Check!

While you are racing in harshly cold weather, there is potential
for hypothermia. Each person should take measures to ensure
they are protected against the cold.
〈Clothing〉○ Please use the participation prize Multi-functional
Neckwear as a headband or neckwarmer.
○ Arm warmers, long tights, and other cold-weather clothingcan be very helpful.
○ T-shirts (long-sleeved, etc.) made of cotton might not dry
quickly when you sweat. We recommend wearing a
fast-drying polyester material.
〈Poncho〉○ A transparent poncho can help against the cold, and it is
helpful as your number card (marathon bib) will still bevisible. If you would like to throw either away during therace, please place it in a garbage box along the course.
○ Transparent bags with holes for the head and arms will behanded out as ponchos at runner check-in. (details on p.1)
○ Please use the cold-weather clothing collection area at thestarting area. (details on p.6)
〈Hot Cream〉○ To retain body heat, hot cream can be used on thighs, back,upper arms, calves, etc.
■ What is hypothermia?
Hypothermia is a condition in which your core body temperature islower than 35 degrees Celsius. Hypothermia is possible while running;
this can happen for a variety of reasons, such as slowing your pace orloss of energy. Please be aware of this and take proper precautions.

Starting Line○ To enable a safe and smooth start, regardless of individual or group entry, or
whether you are registered with the Japan Association of Athletics Federations, thestarting block is ordered based on runners recorded times registered at thetime of application. The last block is made up of runners who did not report an
estimated time.
○ You cannot start from a block ahead of your designation. However, you are free tostart from a block departing after your designated block. The blocks have been
determined based upon the priority order shown on the right, irrespective of groupentries. For those wishing to start in the same block, please join the block of thelattermost runner.

■Priority order for the starting blocks(1) Runners who have registered a personal
best time within the previous three years(starting blocks are ordered by thesetimes)(2) Runners who have registered a predicted
time (starting blocks are ordered by thesetimes, after (1))(3) Runners who have registered neither apersonal best time nor a predicted time

Original Cup

The Kyoto Marathon has taken the DO YOU KYOTO? slogan as its mainconcept, and in order to reduce the number of paper cups used at its water
stations has introduced original cups for runners use. Each water station willfeature a dedicated water point (water only) for those using their own cups orbottles on its ﬁnal table. Please avoid the congested earlier tables and take yourtime. Of course, those who haven t purchased this original cup will be able to ﬁllup those they have brought themselves. In this way, with 14 water stations in all,each runner can save at least 14 paper cups from being used. Be a DO YOU
KYOTO? runner and make a diﬀerence to the environment.

The cups can be folded up forstorage, meaning theseamazing cups can fit in yourpocket after use!

Free for all
runners!

After the end of the marathon, hungry
runners will be provided with special bread
and rice ball snacks. For those who can t decide between
the two, why not take both! That was the thinking behind thedecision to prepare one of each. Tuck into the two ﬂavors as
you think back over your marathon experience.

Muscles that have been put through a good workout are leftdeoxygenated, and as they tighten and stiffen fatigue can accumulate. This
leads to poor circulation and a feeling of exhaustion. To rid your body ofthis fatigue, it’s important to properly warm your body and improve blood
flow, and to promote circulation through the water pressure of a bath. Try
for yourself the power of a bath and its effect on overworked muscles.
