11 02 2008Read this somewhere but cant find the link (if indeed it was online) .. anyway, apparently a few new rules for the 2008 Tokyo Marathon :
- no swords
- no kimono
- no holding hands

( I’m afraid you can’t wear this, Joe )
Ancient news but worth a recap .. a foreigner-friendly roundup of the 2007 run
