Overview

The "Tohoku Food Marathon and Festival" was launched in the spring of 2014 as an activity to support the recovery from the Great East Japan Earthquake. This model of enjoying the "climate" and "food" of Tohoku and expanding the number of Tohoku fans at once has won the Good Design Award, and by 2019 it will have grown into a major sporting event for Tohoku, attracting 7,000 runners from all over Japan and the world.
Since 2017, we have been holding a really running hackathon "Run Hack" with the keyword "Hack the Tohoku Food Marathon!" In 2021, this event was held completely online for the COVID-19 pandemic. We are looking for a new model that will make the best use of technology based on the real competition.
In this session, I will introduce the history of this event and the unique model that won the Good Design Award, and also talk about new developments utilizing technology.
