On Sunday, January 28, the “2024 21st Shinjuku City Half Marathon” was held at the Japan National Stadium.
我が東京新都心ロータりークラブからは平岡直記会員と村山晃一会員が参加しました。
マラソン日和の青空の下、８時開会式、８時３０分にスタートの合図とともにトラックを半周し、皆さん国立競技場を出て、街中へ颯爽と駆け抜けて行きました。
Thanks to the support of 金多 and 高取 of the club office, the members who rushed over by 7:30 (President 伊豆, Secretary 吉田, Member 半場, Member 大西), other members (Member 山中, Member 神農, Member 横山, Member 有田), and members' families, both runners finished safely. Member 平岡 finished in 1 hour 52 minutes despite stepping in as a last-minute substitute, and Member 村山 finished in 1 hour 50 minutes, beating his previous record. Both finished with excellent times.
Great job to you both!
