The runners will be divided into two groups, both of which will run through the south-west part of Fukuoka City, heading east to the turning point in Kashii. The course is 42.195 km long, finishing at Heiwadai Stadium. Group A will start at Heiwadai Stadium, and Group B will start at Ohori Park. The first eight to finish will receive awards.
