The Gifu Seiryu Half Marathon is a half marathon road running race held in Gifu, Japan, in May. The race, which began in 2011, is also known as the Naoko Takahashi Cup and is named after Naoko Takashi, a retired local runner who won the marathon at the 2000 Sydney Olympics and set the world record for the distance in 2001, becoming the first woman to do so in under two hours and twenty minutes. The first edition included a half marathon with top-level and popular sections, as well as a shorter 3-kilometer fun run. All of the monies earned during the event went toward the Tohoku earthquake and tsunami reconstruction effort in 2011.
