Namban Rengo in Buenos Aires ?



06:35PM, Saturday, January 15, Palermo Park, Buenos Aires city, Argentina.

I use to run early morning but today I decided to change my daily routine.

A typical summer day in Buenos Aires (30 Centigrade Degree and heavy humidity). A lot of people in the park.

7minutes/km is my speed for today. Suddenly I feel that, behind me, somebody is…

Shibuya Ekiden 2011

Today's Shibuya Ekiden saw many podium-finishes, but no first place by the Namban teams. Our ladies were beaten on the last leg by a former pro, giving the win to the Chudai Ladies (BTW, that's our Ecomarron's team!), so, sad for Namban, but congrats to the winners!

In the veterans, well, age counts, and our teams average age - 48, was a bit high to go for first place,…

2011年1月15日陸上競技ヴィクトリア(豪州)メルボルンのドンカスターの郊外トラック1500メートル

2011年1月15日に陸上競技ヴィクトリア(豪州)メルボルンのドンカスターの郊外トラックで1500メートルに参加しました。大会前一週間ぐらいずっと雨でしたが大会の日やっと晴れました。けっこう暑かったが湿度は減りました。イベントは夜大会になって、レースのスタートは午後5時40分。レースのスタートからテンポはけっこう速かったのでもし選手が最後までキープするとしたら速いタイムが沢山ありそうでした。でもやっぱり三週になって選手達半分ぐらい疲れました。私は500メートルが残った時にペースアップして最後までキップをしました。200メートルが残った時に3位にたって、4人選手最後の200メートル頑張って、結果は私4位でした。タイムは4分14秒。お疲れ様でした。明日Youtubeで報告とレース撮影アップロードします。皆さん国でもいつでもマラソン頑張って下さい。ジェリー。

Mizuno Half - Part 2

Chan Ka Ho of the Hong Kong National team beat runningintokyo.com member Thomas Kiprotich to finish in 1:10:11! Thomas was four seconds behind, a great performance given the windy conditions and hilly course. Hope he can work on his kick, so he wins the next time out!

This race concluded our…

Mizuno Half-Marathon, Tai Mei Tuk, Hong Kong

Yesterday I was invited to run the Mizuno Half in Tai Mei Tuk, my last race on this trip to Hong Kong. It is a very challenging, hilly course, and it was windy. I started out fast, and was able to finish on target, in 1:17:55! I won the age-group by about five minutes!

It was my pleasure to be on the podium with Keith Chan of…

Great results for our members on Cheung Chau

Today's hilly 10k on Cheung Chau island saw a Kenian sweep in both age-groups. runningintokyo's Francis Kemei easily won the senior division, but could not keep up with Thomas, a 24-year-old Kenian resident of Hong Kong who happens to be from Francis' hometown of Eldoret!

I was happy…

Books I have just read

'Bikila' Ethiopia's barefoot Olympian by Tim Judah.2008.

Pretty good book. Nothing much about his training but quite a bit about his life after his second Olympic Gold.

 

'Run to Overcome' by Meb Keflezighi.2010

This is a really good book. Amazing what this guy had to overcome in his early life and also his many injuries.Lots of great race descriptions.

Ota-ku 10k

Daniiel (thanks for posting, see below), Masako and Juergen ran in today's race at Ota-ku. I had my new Brooks racing flats, and yes, ran an age-graded PB of  37:58, not bad considering the Garmin showed the course as 100m long, and I had run a half-marathon the week before! Splits were 3:35 (!) for the first kilometer, and 18:40 for 5k!

Masako finished under…

Ota-ku 10 miles, Dec 19, 2010

So off to Oi Keiba Jo at 8:00, next to Haneda airport in Tokyo bay for the Ota-ku 10 miles. 7.5 degres, 57% humidity, clouds. Winds from the north. Race starts at 10:00, very well organized, 5 loops around the stadiums. I applied my new method, 9 minutes run, 1 minute walk. It's working well. I finished in 1:42'16", in 498th position. 12 minutes quicker than my race plan. And 45 minutes after the winners. I received support and cheers from officials and from friends from Namban: thank you…

Preferred Entry-Tokyo Marathon 2012?

Although I was very fortunate and able to run in 2009 and 2010, I was turned down this year.  I would really like to run again in 2012 but I am not sure how I feel about this "preferred" member scheme (especially since I do not know the amount).  Perhaps a qualifying time for a certain number of racers (maybe this already exists?) similar to Boston would be a fairer, cheaper option.  I've never been a fan of "pay-to-play."

Ogawamachi Washi Halfmarathon cum 10k

Today, a small group of about six Nambanners ran the Ogawamachi Washi Halfmarathon. It is a really nice race, well organized, with good support by the local community. Furthermore, the start is only 1.5k from my second home, so it is very convenient for me, and for my friends, who are always invited!

Among our small group, I was fastest in 1:25:55, followed by…

12 December: Tengu Trail 18K & 10K

Nice day to run through the woods of Mount Takao for this year Tengu trail race.



I joined the 10K, took a wrong turn and climbed the wrong mountain. Returned on my steps all the way down, climbed again (the correct mountain this time), fell heavily on my butt, fell again face forward but managed the regain my balance in time and just touched the ground with my hands. Run like hell in the last 3K all downhill to the finish line and recovered 2 positions.
