Life... just like marathon!

2024 04 20: 10 km run (55 min 53 sec)

2018 03 18 : Full Marathon (4h 50 min)

2016 09 11 : 10 km run (49 min 56 sec)

Virtual marathons due to COVID: 

2021 05: Half marathon (accumulated distance)

2020 10 30: 10 km run (1 hr 8 min)

and on going running life.. (you can find me somewhere in Tokyo/US running on weekends & holidays)
