I have run at the Marathon! It was 42.195km.
It was first time I run a marathon in my life.
It is one of planning I can do it I hope before going abroad.
I entered at "The Shimada Ooigawa Marathon in liberty"
Although I had a confidence as I practice usually exercise running,
It was a cruel experience so much...
The 8km of hell
The 25km point was the starting to the hell.
I passed turning point for 2 hours and
I thought I may finish for 4 hours in a moment.
There was a happening was muscle cramps in both legs at the point!?
I stretched a leg and I got muscle cramps in another leg.
It was a limitless routine.
And I became the condition I couldn't walk another step.
We have an impression of calves about muscle cramps,
But then I got some muscle cramps in all legs at the same time.
Of course calves, knees, thigh and finger even.
In the end I felt dizzy for the pain.
I have myself to blame for running of keeping to passing about 2 hours
My muscle has reached the limits of my patience.
I overestimated my ability. It is important that keeping speed fits me.
In that condition, I earnestly continued to keep walking
and I managed to finish the marathon.
There is the big aid station where is the most of
providing meals and water at the 33km point.
As I ate a lot of meals at the place, It had an immediate effect on my body.
I was quickly recovering from my fatigue. And I could become to run again.
I wonder if a hungry relate to muscle fatigue.
Luckily, the 8km of hell is from the 25km to 33km taught me
who is a spineless man to have spirit and guts.
Actually, I felt "Just keep going!".
In addition, I felt a cooperation. It is the aid station and friends who run with me too.
I perked up when my friends joined to me and run with me a few time in my hardship.
We manage to get along by supporting each other.
Even so, The good thing was I managed to finish the marathon with patient!
The Niagara Falls International Marathon
So, I had found before a week of the marathon. Shown below.
It is over the border of the marathon from USA to Canada.
You can run with watching The Niagara Falls.
I did not know the marathon until I watched the news
which is "Hiroshi Neko(He is a Japanese comedian)" run at the marathon
and became 10th and top of Japanese ranking.
Moreover, I will stay at Toronto City where is near The Niagara Falls.
I think I have one's destiny to it... How do I handle this?
As I run recently, I can't say "I will enter it!". But I won't have the chance so.
I will consider it in a positive light after more time.
Talk to you soon!
