Here is a link to nice little video montage of the 2007 Tokyo Marathon. Near the top of the page are three links to the video. The wma one started but then produced an error for me. I got the Quicktime one to work. It definitely gives you a great sense of the scale of the event.

About Me
- Stephen Lacey
- Born in 1963 under a camphor laurel tree beside Bilambil Creek, I now live in Tokyo with my Japanese wife and three sons. I started running in 2002 and my addictive personality soon clasped this foolish pastime to its bosom. I am also an enthusiastic amateur brewer and have won a few competitive home brewing awards in my time. Diagnosed with non-Hodgkins lymphoma in 2015, today I can no longer run, and my blog posts are more likely to concern the waxing and waning of my condition.

Hey Steve
How'd you find out your position #? I want to check mine as well.
