Katsuta Marathon

I ran the Katsuta marathon on Sunday(January 30th, 2011).

I woke up at 5:10AM and I went to Katsuta, Hitachinaka city, Ibaraki by train.

At first, I took a train at Shinmachi station to go to Ueno station.

Then I had a breakfast at Ueno station.

I took a special express train at Ueno station to go to Katsuta station.

The train was very crowded! Almost marathon runners.

And the train arrived Katsuta station. There was also crowded.

I arrived Ishikawa ground. There was main a palce.

The opening ceremony was started.

I joined the opening ceremony, I was prepairing start.

And after that, I went to start line.

There was already waiting many runners.

11 AM, it was time to start!

It was cold day. But runners and cheering people on sidewalk

was very hot!...maybe.

I enjoyed run!

And this marathon's prize for participation was dried sweet potatoes.

"Dried" is "Kanso" in Japanese.

"Run the whole distance" is "Kanso" in Japanese.

It's kind of Japanese joke.

Japan!

Japan national team had a match with Australia national team in the Asian Cup.

Both team could not make a score.

Then the game was extended.

Extended time, 2nd half, Tadanari Lee shot and scored!

Japan won a championship! 4th times!

Congratulations!

The Tiger Mask.

Now, Tiger Mask (Japanes catoon hero) come out anywhere in Japan.

He present satchels or stationery or toys or money to nursing institutions.

He was sometimes women.

We do not know who Date Naoto is.

But his well-intentioned action triggered people.

And They took action well-intentioned.

Children in nursing institutions seemed happy when I watched news shows.

The Sano Marathon

I ran the Sano marathon on December 12, 2010.

It was held in Sano city, Tochigi.

I ran there 3rd times.

It was clear day. That was good day by running marathon!

This marathon was small cheering along the road.

But their cheering were very warmhearted.

Thanks to them, I could enjoy running marathon.

If you can get a chance, you should run the Sano marathon!

Thespa Kusatsu J league Final Game in 2010

J league last game in 2010.

They were held on Decenber 4, 2010.

Thespa Kusatsu had a match with Kashiwa Raysol at Thespa Kusatsu home stadium,
 Shoda soy-source stadium Gunma.

Kashiwa had been already J2 champion and decided to promote J1 league.

Thespa was 4 successive wins at the time.

That result was Thespa Kusatsu lost Kashiwa Raysol by a score of 4 to 0.

13 players and a coach leave from Thespa Kusatsu.

Takada Yasunori has played an active part as an ace striker.

He is also leaving player from Thespa.

He is loved teammate and supporter or fans.

We...I miss.

However, it would need to grow Thespa Kusatsu.

I hope he back to Shoda soy-source stadium.

Choi Sung Yong decided to retire.

He was Korea national team player.

His play was full of spirit.

We never forget!

Omoto Kei is usually well-behaved.

But he changed powerful player when he play soccer.

He is young.

I hope he is active in other team.

Ujihara Ryoji was powerfull FW.

Then he often got hurt.

But heading from his high height was attractive.
