| Just get in the goal !!! I did !!! |
My official record is 3:49:25 (Gross time). My goal is Sub 4 hours. I am first time to run in such a big race more than 5,000 runners. This race also serves as selection race of Japan Women's Marathon representatives for Rio de Janeiro Olympic 2016. We had chance to see their great running. I entry Sub-4 general participants who can run sub-4:00 in the marathon. I was consider Two points that 1) there is 6 gateways and we must 20 min in 4.4 km between No5 to No.6 gateway (40 km point). I know my legs has tired after 30 to 35 km. How can I keep the power for 12 km?
2) weather in Japan. It was cold and rain till Nov 14 and weather forecast shows rainy day on 15th. But It was no rain around start time and I felt not much cold race day.
