Good! All those people...looks like it was a big production. How long did it take to do? And where is that?

It took two days. The first day was all in Makuhari with Koide, Tamesue, Suetsugu and some of the group running scenes.

The morning of the second day was around Tocho in Nishi Shinjuku. That's where the scenes with Wainaina and Soh at the beginning were filmed, along with the part where we're running in place. In the afternoon we went back to Makuhari to do more of the group running scenes and the parts with Masuda and Neko.

Everything You Need to Know About the 2026 Hakone Ekiden

The Hakone Ekiden is the world's biggest road race, 2 days of road relay action with Japan's 20 best university teams racing 10 half marathon-scale legs from central Tokyo to the mountains east of Mount Fuji and back. The level just keeps going higher and higher , hitting the point this year where there are teams with 10-runner averages of 13:33.10 for 5000 m, 27:55.98 for 10000 m, and 1:01:20 for the half marathon.

If you've got a VPN you should be able to watch it on TVer starting at 7:50 a.m. on the 2nd , and again at 7:50 a.m. on the 3rd . There's even a 2-hour high...
