[Machine Translation] Eikichi Yazawa plays the leading role in a movie for the first time! The hit-making duo of director Yojiro Takita and screenwriter Nobuyuki Isshiki show their skills in this much-talked-about film! Includes a bonus disc with rare footage never before seen by Eikichi Yazawa fans! Masumi Togashi (Eikichi Yazawa) was a marathoner and joined a food company. He has built a career in the business world as a track and field athlete, but is now a veteran runner who has passed the pass. He entered the "Shonan Marathon" as an open entry runner, which he had decided would be his last race, even though he was struggling with his daughter's entrance exam to a famous private elementary school and his own restructuring. However, the day of the marathon and the day of the parent-child interview happen to coincide, and after much anguish, he decides to "run". On the fateful day, Togashi is seen in the stadium. And so do his former friends, who have all left the club since it was closed down... The starting pistol sounds, and all the runners start running at once. The overwhelming faces, faces, faces of each and every one of them.... They are all carrying their own lives on their shoulders and running with all their might. Last run -- I will finish even if I die. For my daughter, for my wife, for my own pride -- I will do it.
