The Blooming Begins

It was an absolute gorgeous day, but a bit chilly.

Early morning arrival, we soon figured out we were going to chill for a few hours, Brrrr!

Getting ready for our race

After our run, we treated ourselves to Ice Cream.

Here in Japan, you get hot green tea after a race.


March 14, 2010-3 months to go, the weather is improving, the sun is beginning to shine earlier here in the Kanto Plains. Baseball season is off to a rough start with the boys losing their opening game to St. Mary's International School.
Today, I did my 2nd 10K race run at Showa Park. My friend Angelic needed a running partner and since we both have a close running stride, I was happy to fill in. Running through Showa Park with the plum blossoms blooming was great. The run was difficult, but we both ran well and finished in 60 minutes flat (10 minute mile pace).
