November is already smelling like winter. As the temperature drops, we tend to stay indoors, but many of us are probably running for our health. Marathons are gradually being held all over Japan, and there are probably people who participate in marathons as a way to demonstrate the results of their daily training or as a hobby. Fukuoka Prefecture in Kyushu will host the " Fukuoka Marathon 2022 " on Sunday, November 13, 2022, and it has been announced that the NFT trophy will be distributed as a commemorative gift!

福岡マラソン2022公式サイトThe "Fukuoka Marathon 2022" will be held on Sunday, November 13, 2022, starting from Tenjin in the heart of Fukuoka City. Runners will run along Hakata Bay to the finish line in Itoshima City. The first part of the course will take runners through the streets of Tenjin, and as they gradually approach Itoshima City, they can enjoy the natural scenery of the sea and mountains along the way without getting bored.

NFT virtual trophies will be distributed as a souvenir of the event!

The city of Fukuoka has announced that it will distribute NFT (Non-Functional Token) virtual trophies to the event. This is the first time for Fukuoka City to utilize NFTs for an event. The virtual trophies are made of 3D data of famous Fukuoka landmarks such as "Fukuoka PayPay Dome," "Fukuoka Tower," and "Futamigaura," and have a realistic texture and movement.
@PressThe virtual trophies include the "Top Athlete Trophy" to honor the top finishers, the "Good Jog Trophy" for runners who participated in the event, and the "Great Support Trophy" to thank runners for their support and assistance in supporting the event.
