The executive committee of Fukuoka Marathon 2015 announced runners will wear new number tags with their names in very large typeface. The purpose of this change is to make it easy for the crowd to recognize and call out runner’s names. Last year, the participants’ registration numbers were large but their names were too small to read. The Fukuoka Marathon executive committee will recruit 3,200 volunteers for the event, beginning on May 1st. Marathon date: 11/8 (Tue) rain or shine. Internet applications begin: 4/20 (Mon) – 5/22 (Fri). For more information visit http://f-marathon.jp/en/
