Thank you for joining this website, and I hope to see you at a training-run or a race soon. We try our best to assist foreign runners to navigate to difficulties of the Japanese running bureaucracy, and fortunately, have a lot of Japanese members who can help with that.
I'm looking forward to seeing your blog-posts and other running-related content on this website!
And a little hint: Pop out the chat-box when you are on the site, then it is much easier to see when somebody is talking to you.
Cheers, Juergen (website-creator)

P.S.: How about a nice profile-picture?
