Hi.lt's me. Hosaka. I had run Houfu Marathon. ln thisrace.
l intended to standface to face with myself who remain with robust mentality on the one hand,
but with fraqile mind on the other hand. as well as one with my usual frame of mind.
l intended to standface to face with myself who remain with robust mentality on the one hand,
but with fraqile mind on the other hand. as well as one with my usual frame of mind.
standing on the start line, l always brace myself, remainding in my mind that,
"l do complete arun”, "l do complete my run at the time within 4hours and 44minutes”, and "
l do keep moderate pace in the first half, and stand up to harsh running in the latter half.
"l do complete arun”, "l do complete my run at the time within 4hours and 44minutes”, and "
l do keep moderate pace in the first half, and stand up to harsh running in the latter half.
Getting the flow of runners, at about 2 km points after the start,
l found Ms. Naomi Yabe who has visual disturbance,
running with a young male pacesetter of 44 years old,
and passed them after padding her back and leaving words of encouragement,
“Go for it !!”whenever l meet her, I hug and cheer up her giving the words like,
“Hosaka comes,are you working hard?Have your best run and finish your goal”,
in which way we have deepened our friendship.
At 5 Km point, Ms.Yoko Aoki, participating in the visual disturbance runners’division, was running,
as going hand in hand with young lady.

At 5 Km point, Ms.Yoko Aoki, participating in the visual disturbance runners’division, was running,
as going hand in hand with young lady.
I decided to quest after Ms.Yoko Aoki. Ms. Yoko Aoki gained momentum in her run,
while the lady accompanied had to refrain her pace, but as a young hottie,
good-looking guy (“Ikemen”in Japanese) joined as a pacesetter at 10 km point,
their running became lively and Ms. Yoko also seemed to be enjoying with cheerful run.

After 17 km point, I felt pain on my right knee.
“Gosh!”, I am 5 meter left behind them”. Spiting on my painful knee over and over again,
I, in the robust mentality, called out “pain pain go away.”
I, in the robust mentality, called out “pain pain go away.”
“this pace must end up with the time beyoun 4 hours and 44 minutes, anyway”,
l, in the fragile mind, said and deceived to...
l was 10 meters behind.
Allowing further distance from them,
lt might not be able to catch up with again.
Mr. yuji serizawa. who is a winner of the Mt. Fuji running competition for ten times,
waiting for me over there at 18 km point to cheer me up,
waiting for me over there at 18 km point to cheer me up,
so, l could not be able to bear a retire.
Spiting on my knee, l, remaining with tough mentality, was crying up,
“hand in there,hang in there”,
“shift into high gear”, and
“run fast, faster, more, and more”.
then, my pain was going away, and
he,though it is myself on the robust mind side, rushed me to catch up with them soon.
As cached up with them,
Mr. yuji serizawa encouraged me, giving the words “keep it up, go for it”, as it he saw through my mind.
After 21 km half point, that lkemen was gently speaking something to Ms. Yoko
l, in my discouraged side,giving me a caution that that lkemen and Ms. Yoko increase the pace, and so did they;
the lkemen declared his number of 4107 at water point, got bottles, and pass the one to Ms.
Yoko, which made their pace slow.
l, in the strong side, hustled saying “go,go, and pass them”,
while another, in the weak side, murmured “keep the distance so that l could pace up later”,
After some time,

passing 27 Km point, uphill course decreased pace of Ms. Yoko, and l, inspired, spoke to me “go, go, pass them”, while another, discouraged, said to me “keep it as it till the turning point just around”.
At 30 Km turning point, l took the inside of the corner as l usually do,while the lkemen and Ms.Yokotook outside of thecorner, which gave me a 5-meter lead,l, in the braved side, spoke to me “go,go,pass them”,while another coward said to me”keep it till 33 km point where I can speed up with a tailwind, so, follow them behind”.
Passing 33 km point, soon after the Ikemen gently spoke something to Ms. Yoko and she said “yes”, they increased their speed. I,less confident, spoke to me “hey, they did so, just follow them behind”.
38 km point afterwards, their pace became down, the Ikemen frequently looked backward, and I encourage him saying “this pace can take you the goal earlier than the time of 3 hours 15 minutes,
the goal is around the corner, go for it ”while I also inspired myself reminding me “go for it, hand in there”.
the goal is around the corner, go for it ”while I also inspired myself reminding me “go for it, hand in there”.
The water point coming in sight at 39 km point,
I remaining with robust mentality called out “go, go, go for it, pace up, pace up”since I always makes paces down.
I remaining with fragile mind had nothing to do but to encourage myself since it is only the way to goal in within 3 hours 15 minutes.
Passing 41 km, I in strength were cried out “ Hey, this old fart, do not be slow, run faster and faster.
You are not feeling any pain and hardness any more at this moment. Run and run to death”, while I in weakness said to me “I can complete even if keeping this pace”.
You are not feeling any pain and hardness any more at this moment. Run and run to death”, while I in weakness said to me “I can complete even if keeping this pace”.
The goal point coming in sight,
I, keeping strong mind, were calling out “Run faster and faster, and more”.
Getting into the ground,
I, remaining with robust mind, making buzz considering there could be possible to break the national record for the age division.
I, remaining with discouraged mind, also realize its possibility and encourage myself.
Finishing the goal,
the record was 3 hours 14 minutes and 30 seconds.
I, having self-confidence, was complained that I could completed with more faster records,
while another, having less encouraged was saying “it is good enough to complete the race,It is great the record is much better than 4 hours 44 minutes”.
Then,Mr. Yuji serizawa came, saying
“Good job, you did it”,

Mr. Yuji serizawa went back home after saying “l am glad to support you anyhow”.
Gracing at a newspaper special extra,
it said Kawauchi won the third time Victory,
obtaining right to appear in final Olympic marathon trial, and Marathon Ground championship (MGC),
lt is third time Victor since he won the second three years ago, with the record of 2 hours10 minutes and 3 seconds.

with remarkable update of 2 hours 56 minutes and 14 seconds
the hoddie and Ms. Yoko Aoki(41 years old)got second place with record of 3 hours 15 minutes and 42 seconds.
Thank the hoddie and Ms. Yoko Aoki, of which backs to follow gave me some record.
Thanks all,
