Half-marathon
I'll tell you what I want to talk about today.
Can I talk about it?
For the time being, I've run the half-marathon for six months.
I'd like to talk about my impressions of it.
There's a lot of things like that.
Why are you running?
I've been running because I've been able to maintain my mental state by exercising and staying stable.
If you've talked about it many times, you might say, "That's enough."
For the time being, I moved ahead of my current host.
At dinner time on the third day, my mother said, "Do you want to run first?"
Yes, I do.
Would you like to run with me?
Yes, I'd love to.
That's how it started.
I liked running.
While I was running with my father, my mother said, "If you go on a trail marathon next time, you'll run 50 kilometers."
What? You're going to run 50 kilometers?
If you're 24 kilometers ahead of me, you can run.
I thought it was worth a try.
That's how I challenged myself.
I ran 24 kilometers on the trail last time.
After that, I was talking about my next running plan.
Ah, what should I do?
That's how it went on.
I'm going back to Japan once.
When I came back, there was a half-marathon, full- marathon in Rotorua.
My mother was running in that half-marathon.
A friend I met at a Japanese language school was also running a half-marathon.
She's amazing, too.
She used to be an active runner in Japan.
She came to Rotorua and won the half-marathon the other day.
The winner and mother were running fast, and they were chasing each other on the road with their fathers and saying, "Go for it! Go for it!"
When I saw that, I wanted to run again, so I ran for about an hour from Rotorua to Karakuriru and there is a place called Mount Momugi in Tauranga.
The half-marathon there was on August 24th, and I returned to Rotorua at the end of March, and it was about six months later, so I thought it would be nice to run in these six months of lockdown.
I said to my mother, "I think I'll run the half- marathon in Mount Momugi," and she was like, "Hmm..."
Before that, there will be a half-marathon in Taupo in early August, and my mother said, "Why don't you try the 10km marathon there for the time being?"
I didn't mean to say okay, but it's okay to gradually raise your motivation.
For the time being, this is Taupo's 10km marathon. Isn't the medal really cute?
This medal is cute, and there is also ARI, and there is a really cute TWIT FUNTAIL, and there is also a look from the lake in Taupo, and it's really cute and my favorite.
I worked hard for 10km with this medal.
Two weeks before the Taupo marathon, I fell asleep in the wind for five days and my marathon gear didn't go up at all.
I thought, "Oh, I don't like it," and I thought I'd go back if I ran 10km in Taupo, and I had a lot of fun running for 10km for the time being.
I thought it was a good feeling because I ran at a pace that I worked hard for five and a half minutes.
I thought I could continue training on that day, but I fell asleep again because I slept in the wind for five days and my marathon gear didn't go up at all.
It's like I've got a habit of running, and I didn't run at all, and I'm sharing a running app with my mother, but one night I said to my mother, "Saki, have you been running lately?" She said, "I don't come out of the app at all," and I said, "Oh, you noticed," and she said, "No, I haven't been running for I don't know, since," and I said, "Since, turbo, transformation," and she said, "Correct!"
It's like a habit, but I didn't run at all, and I said to my mother, "Saki, you may get injured," but it was my responsibility, so I couldn't do it, but I ran for the time being, but my knees really hurt.
It was a hard day.
I was 21kg and it rained and stopped on that day.
And on the other hand, it was like "Oh, it's raining"
But I was raised by my mother and father to say that the running on a rainy day feels best.
I was actually running on a rainy day and thought "it's okay" and was running.
But whether it was raining or sweating, my face was swollen and my motivation wasn't up.
I ran while thinking that I would be able to concentrate for about 20 hours and 10 minutes, and when I first ran about 8km, I started to remember the pain on my left shoulder and I thought it would be okay, but at the end of the 3km course, I ran along the road by the sea for the first time, and at the end of the 3km, I entered Mt. Monogui in the mountains for a moment, and it was like going around Mt. Monogui for a round.
And before entering the mountains, there is a little uphill, and there is already a knee ... "Eh? Ah! Eh? I may not be able to walk!" I couldn't walk like that, but my feelings were running, but "Eh? I can't go because I'm running at all."
Somehow, the uphill was so painful that I thought "Ah, water may have accumulated in my knee again."
The woman in front of me was probably also walking.
It doesn't mean that it hurts only when it's uphill and downhill, but it means that it hurts.
While thinking about it, we were running hard together, but we were both desperate, so we didn't talk about anything.
There was a feeling of "let's do our best" that I could feel in the air, and we got through it together and both of us managed to reach the goal.
If it weren't for that person, I would have been taken away more and more, and my motivation would have dropped and it would have been very late.
And this time the time was 2 hours and 3 minutes.
And when I ran the Honolulu Mountain, it was 2 hours and 13 minutes, so I thought "Ah! The course is different because it is shortened by 10 minutes!"
And when it came to 2 hours and 3 minutes, I wanted to cut it to 2 hours.
While I was a beginner, my thoughts began to pile up and I was like "What should I do for the next half marathon?"
This is a half marathon medal.
When I got this medal, I thought "Huh? Wasn't there a little more blue or something written here for a half marathon medal?"
"Huh? Only silver and white?" I felt like that, but I got it.
And this time...
When I was in Taupo, my mother was there, so my father had a car to pick me up.
But this time I didn't have a car to pick me up, so I let him drive the car by himself, went to the marathon, and ran the marathon.
While saying "I want to run," I retired and came back, and I was running in the car thinking "What am I aiming for?"
And when I got home and was asked "How was it?" I said "Well, my knees were bad, but it was fun."
"Your goal is to cut it for 2 hours, right?" I said "Yeah, that's right."
And the next morning, I woke up and thought "Ah, my knees are already clogged, so I have to stay stable like this."
Surprisingly, my legs didn't hurt.
I was like "Eh, I can move!"
Even though my knees hurt so much, I thought "I'm completely recovered!"
And the next day, I was like "Eh, I'm recovered again!"
And three days later, I was already paralyzed.
I was like "Should I go for a run?"
So I started running with my friend who started running with me.
Yeah, yeah, I've had that kind of thing recently.
What I wanted to say is...
How much was left? What else was there?
I'm thinking of cutting my bangs now, but...
I'm thinking of growing it up for my next big adventure.
What do you think?
It's going to be New Zealand summer soon, so it's going to be hot, right?
And when I'm actively moving...
If my hair is short, and if it's too long to tie it up, it gets hot around my neck.
And if I wear a hat and tie up my bangs, it gets tight, right?
Then I think it's better for me to tie it up and wear a hat.
I'm basically living how easy it is to take care of my hair.
So I'm thinking of doing that.
I'm growing it out now, but it's a little short, isn't it?
Yeah, that's about it.
Talking about marathons...
Oh, was there anything interesting?
Speaking of marathons...
For me, all running competitions were like "marathons".
But...
Yeah, I'm always saying "marathon", so my mother and father were like "No!"
Saki, a marathon is 41km.
You can't say anything less than that as a marathon!
And I was like "What?!"
It's hard! It's hard to say!
So even when I'm doing half-marathons...
If you don't say "half-marathon"...
And if you say "half" for the Tauranga marathon...
Half.
Yes, half.
And for the Taupo marathon...
It's not a marathon or a half-marathon, it's a typical race!
Yes, it's a typical race.
It's tough!
I'm really fast! I think I'm running four minutes faster than my mother!
I don't know when it will be, but I'm a person who ranks first in women's rankings in their fifties, so I'm fast!
And I'm really stoic!
That's about it for me recently!
Thank you for letting me talk about the half marathon!
Thanks to you, I was able to fill one video!
Actually, I was thinking of turning the video on the day of the half marathon!
I think I was using it properly in the morning for the opening, but I was thinking of taking all the places like eating banana toast, getting ready, and going for a run!
And while I was running, there wasn't anyone to run with me, so I was thinking of turning the camera around and shooting it myself, but when it came to the real thing, I wasn't very fast at taking pictures myself, but I didn't turn it around because I didn't like it!
And even after the half marathon was over, I turned the camera around and took a picture like "I ran!"
It's the same as when I did the 24k trail in Taupo, and it was raining even more this time, so I only talked about it because it was all cut!
What kind of video will come up next time? Please look forward to it!
Thank you for watching this week as well! See you next week!
