問3 次の「神戸マラソン」について書かれた英文に関して,あとの問いに答えなさい。
In 1909, a marathon was held in Kobe. It was a 31.7km race between Kobe and Osaka. It is said that this race used the word “marathon” for the first time in Japan. So now we have a monument remembering the starting point of the Kobe Marathon as the place where the first marathon in Japan was held.
The Kobe Marathon was held by Hyogo and Kobe City in 2011 to express thankfulness to those who reached out a helping hand during the recovery from the 1995 Great Hanshin Earthquake and after. It has two types of marathons: a full marathon (42.195km) and a quarter marathon (10.6km). The marathon starts in front of Kobe City Hall, turning at Akashi-Kaikyo Bridge, then finishing near Civic Square on Port Island. On the other hand, the quarter marathon starts at the same place, but finishes at Sumaura Park.
Every year, many people apply for it. In 2014, the number of entries was about 86,500. In 2013, there were about 87,600 entries. But there is a limit on the number of runners. The number of marathon runners is limited to 18,000, while that of the quarter marathon is limited to 2,000.
This year the race will be held on November 15. You will see a lot of people wearing colorful clothing running in the beautiful scenery of Kobe with a lot of people cheering for them.
