Shibamata 100K

Done!!!

I challenged 60 KM categories in Ultra "Shibamata 100K" last May 19,2019 in Tokyo, Japan.

My longest distance was 50 km in Saipan Marathon 2018. It's first time to ran more than 50 Km.It was 3rd times of the race in Japan.

We ran on river side pathway along Edogawa River. the road is flat all the way and turned by 30 km point to goal. Start in Tokyo then through Saitama (total 5 cities) *and Ibaragi if 100K

I've Kept my pace was 6:30 to 7:00 min/km and 7 hours 4 min was my official record. the condition in race day was most cloudy with light sunshine, temperature (about 24 ℃) isn't hot for me but my strongest enemy was strong wind since after 30 km returned to until goal that makes me feel cold and tired :(

with Finisher medal

I have almost same views through running course that mostly green in river side and houses in the town. I believe the runner who lives in Japan was boring but everything new and bring back memories for me. My home town is in Saitama but different city also we have likely same views :)

Many people are cheer us up standing by beside road and set own drinks or food :)  that big help for runners!!
Thank you for staffs and other runners!! meet you again I will challenge 100K ultra next year in Shibamata.
