The 10th NIPPON IT Charity Ekiden
★ Your marathon will save the life of a young adult ★

The "NIPPON IT Charity Ekiden*" was organized by Chuck Wilson in 2010 with the aim of supporting as many people battle depression and reintegrate back into society. *Note: the term Ekiden ("Eki" means "Station" and "den" is "communicate" in Japanese) refers to the old Japanese transportation system for government documents and officials by a relay of horses or men.

Through the sport of "Ekiden," we want to support young people who are willing to help each other toward a similar goal, encourage each other, and support those who are our future to connect and overcome the challenges facing them today.
