Eternal Japanese leaderboard in men's marathon

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This list shows an overview of the 100 fastest Japanese runners over the marathon distance . It includes performances managed by the World Athletics Association and also lists times with which runners would have placed in the top 100 more than once.

The national record holder has been Suguru Osako since October 2018 with a time of 2:05:50 h in the Chicago Marathon . He replaced Yūta Shitara , who ran 2:06:11 h in Tokyo in February of the same year. Both received a bonus of 100 million yen for their times , which was awarded by Japanese companies in the run-up to the 2020 Olympic Games in Tokyo for undercutting the previous national record set by Toshinari Takaoka (2:06:16 h) in 2002.
