Last trail in 2008

To tell the truth, I was lazy in trail run in this year partly because I couldn’t participate in the Japan mountaineering race(Hasetune race).
I swear, promise that I will run the mountains as much as possible in 2009 and will enjoy mountaineering races ( have a afford to enjoy races).

In this year I had many events and had a nice time. I appreciate all persons that I had met and all the events that I could have. Thanks for nice year!

Happy birthday!

My daughter is eight years old today.
And the Tokyo tower is 50 years old today!
We held a small party at home and went out to see the Tokyo tower!

We drove into the midtown. In the Tokyo Midtown there was many spectacle illuminations, but too crowded...



A pretty animal had come!


Then we went to the Tokyo tower where there were as many people as in the Tokyo Midtown.

Mt.Mitake trailrun race

We stayed in Mt.Mitake last night. In hotel(民宿)　it was very cold but they served very nice dishes and we enjoyed them very much.
When I woke up in the morning, it rained very hard and I fell down so deeply. Soonerly the rain changed to snow that was the first time in Mitake.
The trail was in the worst condition and many runners slipped and fell down. Last year, I got severe injury in this race so I took much care for my steps.


I like winter because I can see snow!

The two animals ran and ran in the snow!


This was the last race of this year. Thanks for everyone.
