As an officially recognized race by the Japan Tyrannosaurus Athletics Federation, participants will also have a chance to challenge the Japan record. After the race, a chase game titled 'Catch the Tyrannosaurus!' where children and Tyrannosauruses interact will also be held, and Tyrannosauruses that manage to escape until the end will receive local products as prizes. In the treasure hunt, finding balls hidden in the sandy beach earns you a gift, and in the clam digging, you can harvest Asari clams. It is an event where you can enjoy an extraordinary experience with family and friends.
