The Hakone Ekiden (箱根駅伝 、はこねえきでん) is long distance relay race from Tokyo to Hakone, taking place January 2nd to 3rd.
Twenty-three university teams left Tokyo for Hakone at 8am. (If the number is one hundred or less, you write it in word form. I understand why you used "toward". However, in this case, they're leaving one location to go to another, so you use "for", unless you put a verb before it. "left Tokyo and ran towards Hakone" would be correct, but somewhat awkward here.)
The first half is 108km from Tokyo to Hakone, and the second half is from Hakone to Tokyo.
There are five relays each, and they hand their sash to the next runner.
