Mt.Tapochau

Pacific ocean view

I ran to Mt.Tappcau in this early morning. Mt.Tapohau is center of island and has 360° nice view all of island. It takes an hour to top from my house. I just picnic running.No one and little breeding nice whether there. 

タポチョ山に2年ぶりになるだろうか走ってきた。本当は途中から山の反対側へ抜ける予定を頂上へ怪我から10か月何とかここまで来た。360度見渡せる景色は最高で家からも走って1時間程度で来れる。こればかりはいい環境です。

Jogging stroller is woking on.

Philippine sea@Fishing base

We walk around with Jogstroller. It was so hot and windy today.

so hot Taro たった今、2.27 kmのRuntastic ウォーキングを27m 54sで終了しました。 https://www.runtastic.com.

New shoes.

After running

This is the last of my sick item that purchased a running shoes "Brooks Ghost 7"has came and tried to run with them. I have second times to wear Brooks shoes I have a Racer ST5 that lightweight shoes. Ghost 7 is also not feel heavy but cushion works well and hold tight heel for me. I wore Asics preferably. I tried to wear Brooks and Saucony (I have trail run shoes) are also fit my feet. I should know their life time because Asics is having long life (have a 2170 and gel pulse3) and cushion as well.

これが最後のランニング病の産物、ブルックス ゴースト7が到着し早速走ってみた。ブルックスはこれで2足目になり、Racer ST5という軽いモデルで昨年のフルに出ました（2年連続5分オーバーでサブ4ならずでしたが）、サッカニーはトレイルモデルを持ってます。私には,供にいい感じで踵を程よくホールドしてくれます。あとは、耐久性でしょうか、アシックスが耐久性がいいのでそのあたりが同じならいいです。 サイパンには日本のようにたくさんの種類やニューモデルが来るのが遅いし、高い！のでネットでアメリカから買う事が多く試足出来ないのが難点です。

The sandals

what's this?

Kohzaburo is trying to walk now. I bought pair of sandals for him but he doesn't like wear them because He has use to be bare feet and suddenly we let him ware the sandals.

I tried to other color for boy but only this color (kind of orange or pink?) available for him when I buy. I'll let him walk but still put in the Jogging stroller too.

In xmas time.

Breeze makes feel good 

I ran beach side pass way in this morning. I saw the banner that makes me realize I was already in X'mas time but Thanksgiving now but important is December 25. I don't much like in December in bisiness wise even privately because people like a busy and lazy who  around me. It's so coming new year soon.

朝、走ってたらクリスマスのバナーが出てた。今はサンクスギビングなのにまだ。これからはあまり好きな時期じゃない、仕事は忙しくなり、かと思えはホリデーシーズンで休むのが多くなってきたり、これであっという間に新年だ。

1st day in Guam.

His team had won in two games 4-0 and 6-0. Kohtaro scored two. They have other two game tomorrow.

Trip to Guam.

U12 players @Airport

He left to Guam yesterday afternoon. They have four games with local team in Guam. I hope he enjoy to play game without injury also spend time with teammate. Good luck Kohtaro and THFC!!

昨日の午後にグアムへ向けサイパンを出発した。日曜日までに４試合をやるらしい、せっかくの機会なので怪我なく楽しんでサッカーをして、チームメイトとも楽しい時間を過ごして欲しい。

Jealous.

love it

We walked together last night. I was going to running but he ask to come with me for walk. We were walking in downtown.
I had to go MacDonald and I exceeded the calorie that the calorie that I ate used finally.
I know why? Kohtaro and my wife will go to Guam for his soccer team trip tonight till Monday that he and Kohzabro stays with me in here. He may jealous Kohtaro to go and "why not myself?"

Anyway, I will spend time with just Two boys on this weekend. Where are we going to eat at Kohjiro?

昨夜、珍しく輝次郎と散歩をした。ランニングに出ようとしたら珍しく彼から一緒に行くというので、散歩になった。結果、マックによることになり食べたカロリーが消費したカロリーが上回った。輝次郎には理由があり、ある事にやきもちを焼いている。それは光太郎がサッカーの遠征で週末グアムに妻も行く、それがつまらない訳だ。同じサッカーをやっていて、何で？・・・

週末はこの二人と過ごすことになり、今から食事を何にするかを輝次郎と考えなければいけない。

Garmin Forrunner 220

Nice GPS watch.

I received FR 220 today from ebay US. I ran with 220 suddenly tonight. My first inspiration 220 is light. I don't feel wear this watch because I wear 210 in right arm. Works great for me I just need good time record.

２２０が届いた。早速つけて走ってみた第一印象は「軽い」右腕に２１０も試しにつけたのでその差は明らかだった。オートポーズ機能をＯＮにしたので結果は違えど、オートラップでバックライトが点灯したりバイブレーターでお知らせ等、ＧＰＳのつかみも早い。余談だが心拍計は１１０と２１０に使っていた物が繋がりました。（私はあまり使いません）スマホ（ＨＴＣ ＯＮＥ）にもＢＴでつながりました。これは記録にかなり楽です。
まっ、あとはいい記録だけです。

Goal keeper.

wearing the grove =)

Kohjiro was join the Festival also last Saturday and I have not watched his soccer for a while and he was fun in the field. He is in U-6 and they don't have game yet but just get use to play with the ball, team work and fun. I bought one pair of keeper grove that he wants to have it and do the keeper. Most of coach knows him since he was baby he doesn't much good to play soccer but he likes to play soccer too, coach let him enjoy and watching him. I really appreciate their effort and friendly to be with him. He will be good goal keeper!! ?

Soccer festival- fall

after the game

Kohtaro had soccer festival on last Saturday. He played as U 12-B team but the team player are most of them U-10 players even him U-12 B is not enough players that's why team let them play in U-12 B. They had 3 games and lost all games I watched last game then the score 0-2 but all player were good performance especially second half that makes presser and get the ball. I can see all player works hard and wants to win, finally they couldn't score but first time to see what wonderful game. I can't watch Kohtaro makes score. U-12 will goes to Guam on this weekend for the much with some of Guam U-12 team. Kohtaro also is going to play in Guam. They must be have good game in there.

土曜日にサッカーフェスティバルがあった。光太郎達Ｕ１０選手は事情でＵ１２Ｂチームで参加した。3試合があったが残念ながら勝利こそならなかったが私の見た最終ゲームの後半は、全員が相手にプレッシャーをかけて厳しいマークで何度もボールを奪う、今までで一番感動する試合だった。体格も違いがある中よく頑張ったと思う。結果は0－2で負けたけど次シーズンに繋がるいい試合でした。
今週末からＵ１２チームはグアムに遠征し現地チームと数試合をするようです。光太郎も参加することになり本人かなり楽しみにしているようです。むこうでもきっといい試合をしてくれると思います。
    

One of turning point.

At (long) last, since an injury last Feb, I was able to run 10 km in one hour. I can't remember that when did I ran such a time in last running?

2月の怪我以来、長い時間だった。けど、何とか最初の目標の10キロを60分で(ギリギリ)いけた。最後に10キロを60分以内で走ったのが思い出せない。

The words of Doctor.

After the running!!

I'm still having a sick because every other day or Two days had ran. I ran with Jogging Stroller in the morning and ran alone in the evening yesterday.

Did after medication in Japan then started to walking since last April I felt that very long 5 km by walk and can't think 10 km by run.

Morning

Dr.Kubota Specialist in spinal code told me that "Don't be in a hurry to recovery action and my target is on August that 5 months more from now and you will be able to run." and "I should not have surgery now then wait recovery by myself even have pain for a while"his word helped me a lot in that time then I decide to start to move for recovery my injure with confidence.

So I am now able to running 10 km or more even not fast. I remember I didn't drink alcohol last February and March because taking medicine for the pain in numbness my leg but I have a beer so tasty especially after workout.

こんなにランニングのモチベーションが上がっている病に侵されている自分は2月の怪我以来初めてだ。1日2回や超早朝ランや大昔はしていたけどずっとできなかったのが今は出来る。これは単にランニング買い物病のおかげ？(笑)

ヘルニアになり神経痛を左足に併発して痛くて歩くのも困難だった。ロクな医者もサイパンにはおらず設備もなくＭＲＩですらグアムまで撮りに行き、要手術と言われて・・・4月に帰国して久保田先生に診てもらって手術も不要時間はかかるが回復するとはっきり聞いて、頑張ろうと意欲もわいて歩く事から始めた。

今は何とか少しづつではあるが距離も伸び、走った後のビールも美味しく飲める。薬づけの2月から3月はアルコールも口にできなかった。今は幸せだ。

15 km running.

View to ocean.

I ran 15 km last Sunday early morning  before I walked with kids. I just wanted to try how hard run more than 10 km for me now? since last February I have not ran for the long distance running. I ran on hill going up and down feel so good after the running.

My back had little pain....

15キロを走った(いや、走れた)。北マリアナ大学の坂道も、またこんなに走れるようになるなんて思ってもみなかった。

少し、腰に違和感はあり。

Walking Sunday.

Following Bro

Kohjiro was join to our waking and he is  cycling with his bicycle. He actually doesn't like much go to walk but he comes with us. They play at play ground in the park after walking.

No one in the park so quiet Sunday.

輝次郎が珍しく散歩に一緒に来た。自転車とジョグストローラーで誰もいない日曜日の公園を散歩した。

Sick

The North Face

I am in sick now what's kind of sick? that want to have gear for running. I was almost no interesting for the running since 9 months ago until last July because of my back injure. Now a days I have ran 5 km to 10 km I can and Kohzaburo makes me go to outside for workout. Time is not to be before but at least I am able to running now.

I bought a Jogging Stroller, Running shorts (The Picture one) that I use to running with different color since two or more years ago and this is the best one of shorts for me (other one is Brooks shorts also best for me) material, features and style (design) but the price is not easy to get  me to buy but I made order it $39 (Reg $45) The North Face Agility Shorts and waiting for the shipping now. One more will have a GPS watch Garmin FORERUNNER 220 but I bought brand new them in ebay and I bid and won just cheap price (it was lackey ) I am using Garmin 210 now and working good for me but I have to sale even some other items will be sale for cover my sick.

anyone wants to have a 210 with HR monitor? sale with reasonable price I have.

Jogging Stroller.

  

he likes old one?

good workout

I got a jogging stroller !!! Tiketech All Terrain X3 Sport I compare with Bob Iron man jog stroller but my final decision considered to the budget. I received them more than week ago but Saipan had been rainy day for almost everyday.

I ran on beach side pathway almost straight road because I choose has a fix wheel with suspension that good for the running. I did not expect to run with jogging stroller is so heavy that more than my expectation. I got new goal that have to strengthen more my arm and back for operate the stroller for long distance with run.
Kohzaburo is still getting heavy more and more that I need to gain the power more and more!!!!!!!!!!!!!

やっと念願のジョギングストローラーを購入した。輝次郎がまだ今の晃三郎くらいの時から欲しかったが当時はあきらめていた。しかし、これが意外と重くて走る脚力より腕力と背中当たりの筋肉を鍛えないとだめだ。

Cyasyu Ramen noodles

the bowl is so big.

Eaten a Cyasyu Ramen for my lunch this afternoon. I was happy to got good ramen even not 100% because I have not eaten a tasty ramen for a while here in Saipan. I knew it is hard to find good taste ramen same as in Japan in overseas. I may come to have this ramen in this restaurant soon. Arigato!
