Tokyo Marathon 2010

[The cat on the slope] March 2, 2010 09:30

On February 28, the 4th Tokyo Marathon was held on a cold rainy Sunday.

One of the biggest difficulties in the course of the Tokyo Marathon, which has few undulations, is said to be the biggest challenge.
It's Tsukuda-ohashi Bridge at 36 kilometers. Whip on the feet that have stopped moving after thirty-five kilometres
It is a strong wind on the Sumida River that finally waits for the runner who climbed the bridge.
In addition, there is a downhill from there.

Actually, I am also a citizen runner. I have experienced this difficulty twice in the past.
But I'm really grateful for the cheering from the roadside that I can hear in a tight place.
In the rain this year, many people were cheering on Tsukuda-ohashi Bridge.

Tsukuda-ohashi Bridge is a recommended support spot because you can see the runners well.
Everyone, next year's Tokyo Marathon will cheer on the runners on the Tsukuda-ohashi Bridge.
After that, I slowly warmed up in public bath, which is located in the Tsukuda and Tsukishima areas.
Would you like to enjoy a delicious meal? "I'll be next year!" What a secret determination may be born.

6 kilometers away, do your best!                            Support even if it is near the end
