In an exciting development at the World Athletics event, the women's marathon just concluded with stunning performances that had spectators at the edge of their seats. While the results have yet to be announced, it's clear that the athletes pushed their limits. The race, which was held at an undisclosed location, was a great display of skills, determination and the indomitable spirit of the athletes.

Marathons, particularly women’s events, are quite popular in Japan, with the country boasting a number of high-ranking athletes in the field. Japanese people usually highly regard athletes who represent the country in international arenas such as the World Athletics due to their spirit of endurance and perseverance, traits highly admired in Japanese culture. Furthermore, there is an increasing interest in women's athletics due to rising discussions around gender equality in the sports industry in Japan.

In the US or EU, such sporting events are also followed enthusiastically and athletes are celebrated. However, the public attention may be more focused on mainstream sports like football or basketball. The focus on the women's division may also vary based on the level of gender inequality differences in these regions compared to Japan.
