yukimaru's English diary

Today, I participated in a marathon race of
10km. This was my first experience to join a
race. And also I had not run 10km yet for
training, but I wondered I might lose interest
in training and decided to join a race.

My objective was to complete the race. And
I did not want to be last, even though I am
not very competitive usually.
I tried to run slowly as usual, and I was able
to run the whole distance over 10 minutes
before the time limit. Well done! (self praising)

Anyway, this race is also called "the Chicken
Noodles marathon", because Ikeda city is the
birthplace of the Chicken Noodles. Also it is
said that the world first instant noodles were
developed in this city by Mr. Ando Momofuku.
So the participation prizes were a pack of
Chicken noodles, and a towel.
