About PaceZen

Supporting Every Runner's Development

PaceZen was founded with a mission to support runners of all levels through science-based training, expert guidance, and professional coaching. Located in the heart of Tokyo, we serve the running community by combining traditional Japanese discipline with modern training methodologies.

We work with runners at every stage of their journey, whether taking first steps toward fitness or preparing for competitive events. Our approach emphasizes sustainable progress, injury prevention awareness, and the enjoyment of running.

Professional Training Approach

Our team consists of certified running coaches, sports physiologists, and former competitive athletes who bring decades of combined experience to training sessions. We focus on creating personalized training programs that adapt to your lifestyle, goals, and current fitness level.

From 5K beginners to marathon participants, we work with runners using evidence-based approaches. Every workout, rest day, and nutrition recommendation is designed with specific training principles in mind.

Comprehensive Running Development

Our approach to running improvement is holistic. Beyond weekly mileage, we examine running form, provide targeted strengthening exercises, offer nutrition guidance, and include mental preparation for race day situations.

Our facility in Shibuya provides an environment where runners connect, learn, and train together. Whether joining group training sessions or working individually with a coach, you'll find a supportive community that recognizes progress at every level.
