      Oh, have you tried Newton running shoes? They are awesome, makes you run faster, and they induce less impact on knees on lower back. Much less. I love mine, although recently me left middle toe starts to hurt when I run. Not sure whether this is from the shoes, or something else.

      Great run!
      I read news about this race. You know this race had a lot of troubles like a lack of water and so on. I hope you don't hate Japanese marathon event. Other races have more courtesy.

      Thanks for the comment. I didn't have any major problems during the race. One place I expected a water stop was not there, but that was it. I don't hate Japanese marathon events. :)
