Tomo Morimoto
is a female long-distance runner from Japan who specialises in the marathon.
Born in Yamasaki, Hyōgo, Morimoto made her marathon debut at the 2006 Osaka Women's Marathon and, even though she was not an invited elite runner, she managed to finish in fifth place in a time of 2:27:46.〔Nakamura, Ken (2006-01-29). (Ndereba wins Osaka Marathon ). IAAF. Retrieved on 2010-09-26.〕 She set her personal best (2:24:33) in the women's marathon on May 7, 2006, winning the Vienna City Marathon. This was the race's second fastest run for a woman at that point after Maura Viceconte's course record.〔Wenig, Jörg (2006-05-07).
