I kind of wonder if it’s a cultural thing. Fitness and running has become so popular here in the US…maybe it’s just not that way in Japan or other Asian countries??

Thanks for reading my blog! Sorry for the late response. I just now went through all my spam and saw your replies. For some reason they weren’t emailed to me like there usually are.

Also really interesting stats about how few women there were. Do you think its a cultural thing, where running just isn’t as popular there for women? Because in the US its the other way around…It was the same scenario at the Berlin marathon too though- very few women comparatively.

I too had way more mileage on my Garmin 26.2 but understandable.

What a fun, fun race and experience. Congratulations to you on a strong race!
