The new runner in the family.
This year we spent our Sakura celebration at Camp Zama, a nearby army base. They had a great Cherry Blossom Festival which also included a 3-7K run. You guessed it, the Yokota Striders were there. It was a perfect day for a run. The running course included three steep hills, but it was as one of my FB friends put it "Like being in a wedding with no need for a flower girl". Rene returned back to running today. It still amazes me at how civilized these Japanese people are. The base opens the gate to the public and they will wait in such long lines just to have American pizza, nachos, and hamburgers. They are a pleasant crowd to be around and so funny to watch. Larissa ran the 3K at a fast 14 minutes.
