On February 17, 2019 (Sunday), I participated in the Kyoto Marathon 2019. This was my first application and first participation. I’ll record my passing times at each point. Even after the halfway point, I didn’t have to walk for long distances. I brought plenty of supplies like sports yōkan, jelly, and salt candy, so I probably didn’t run out of stamina. I think most marathon races have a 7-hour time limit, but Kyoto Marathon has a 6-hour limit, which is a bit strict. Especially in the first half, you tend to fall behind due to delays at the start or hills, but because the checkpoint time limits are strict, I was passing through barely in time. Two weeks later, I have the Tokyo Marathon coming up. I’ll do my best there too.
