Cross-country race
Our family Joined a cross-country race that was held in Fujimi-Heights on the third May '07. Me and my wife run 10-km length cource, 5kilo-second son and 3 kilo-third son. The cource had 200m hight rising at the first half, then going down to the goal. I would rather say it was a hill climbing race!
The result was 60min38sec, 33rd of 63 runners. The winner run the cource about 37min. I wonder how the runner run.
45kmLSD
Yellow-line indicates my running route.During GW, I wanted to run long distance but I couldn't. That was my regret. Then I decided to run next Sunday, 13th May, the day before yesterday.
The plan was to run from my home to Gihu city, 45km distance.. The running route was planned along the JR line-meaning a case that I fell to tiredness, I could return by using a train. The day was cloudy at fast, then gettinng sunny but windy.
It needed more than 6hours from Nagoya(my home) to Gihu station, but finaly I could reached to there! The event gave me a certain confidence.
Golden week
From the end of April to beginning of May, a series of holidays continues. We call it "Golden week".
Many Japanese go for trip in this period. Our family went to Ngagano pref. .
I run cross-coutry course with my wife, looked good for getting into good trim.
Buddhiist image
We can easily find such a Buddihist image that is standing silently beside the trail. Sometimes I stop running and take a photo.
Running around the Imperial Palace 1
I went to Tokyo on a business on 18th and 19th Feb. Then I ran around the Inperial Palace-5km a round. I tried to run there last summer but I gave up to run because there were no opening public bath on Sunday. This time, because I stayed a hotel, I could run twice - the Saturday night and the Sunday daytime.
We can see the Tokyo-tower behind the runnner.
The starting point was crossroad of Utibori-douri and the road which pass infront of the Tokyo international forum.
getting better
Previously, pain after running on the joints or ligaments faded out within 2 days after. But this time, it remained even a week later.
So I could feel the agony that is not from physical but mental condition. Those who have their knee joint pain or plantalgia sometimes feel the agony. When the pain would disappear or what is the reason? How can they be cured fundamentally? I think the delision is mental orientated pain.
I bought an insole a few days before. I was half in doubt about the effect. I felt the tight support on the arch of my foot first. Then I felt the pain on my ankle reliefed. The relief might caused by dispersing of the weight by the insole. Anyhow, yesterday, I could run 11.2 km within 1 hour without pain. I don't feel pain still now. I hope the condition could be continue!
yellow signal
Within two days after 30km running, almost all the symptoms-muscle pains or joint pains-were cured.
But I feel pain on my left ankle still. The pain occurs from deep. A damage of the joint or ligament might be occured.
I wanted to run 20km on Sunday, but felt severe pain from the ankle so I gave up running at 14 km point. It may be better to stop running around several days.
