Satoru Sasaki (Japanese: 佐々木悟; born October 16, 1985) is a Japanese long-distance runner who specialises in marathon running.

Sasaki finished 3rd at the 2015 Fukuoka Marathon, an IAAF Gold Label Road Race. He was the highest finishing runner from Japan in this race.[1] He achieved this without being an invited runner for the race.[2] This finish made him a likely candidate to compete in the 2016 Olympics.[3]
