Mt.Fuji mountain race

We went out to participate Mt. Fuji race.
On the way(? a little different way) we dropped in Gotenba Outlet Mall.
Because it was weekday ,it was so nice that it was not very crowded.


Today's training: 6km jog
Monthly mileage for July 196km(target 250km)

25th July
Mt. Fuji mountain race was held. This was the second time to participate in it.
The most characteristic point of this race is it's severe time limit. So the atmosphere before the start is quite different from other races. Most of the runners try to keep better potion to start earlier. (there are over 2600 runners and some of the trail is single track )
