Profile Information

Hometown:: Tokyo, Toronto

About Me:: I used to be a competitive runner .. ran with college triathlon athletes in Pennsylvania .. but now I am trying to get back. The progress is far better than expected, and I now feel comfortable joining with a group like this....should be able to do a half-marathon towards Oct/Nov. I am also interested in: climbing Mt. Fuji & Asama (just did it last week), mountain cycling, mountain running, cardio or power exercises. I also do Yoga and meditation (semi-vegetarian).
I am an artist (use of light in celestial themes...more on my website.), and I know that burst of creative energy and burst of physical energy are inter-related. This is why I am here. I spent half of my life abroad (US, Canada, UK), but I am very rooted to the traditional Japanese values (serenity as opposed to noise) and also know the country&Tokyo very well. I am also a professional conference interpreter.

Favorite runner:: Have none

Sunday run now changed to Ohme Kyuryou in Ohme 次回から日曜ランは青梅丘陵に変更します

Because the Takao is too crowded and too "frozen & slippery", I ran the Ohme Kyuryou (青梅丘陵) yesterday. Good view and not too crowded. Please take a look at the photos under "Photos". Photosの写真を見て下さい。

Chemical (MSG, flavour enhancer, amino-acid) free soba stand ... kano-ya

This chain soba noodle

stand (with seats, though) is kano-ya (かのや). They do not

seem to have a website but you often see them in town (not at stations, I think). There is one in Shinjuku W near the Yodobashi

Camera, below…
