高雄富邦馬拉松
3:39:32（160/1409）

悔しい、されど、これもマラソン。
Not satisfied with the result, but this is also one marathon experience.

18キロまでキロ4:30ペースで進むも、
そこから失速。
後半の足を鍛え直す。
Until 18 kilometers I kept the pace of 4:30 for each kilometer.
Couldn’t keep the pace after that , finishing at 5:13 pace for the average in total.
Need to train my legs to be stronger at the second half of the race.

18キロまで女子総合3位の選手がいる集団で走り、これはとてもいい経験になった。
Until 18 kilometers I ran with a group of 7 runners including a female runner who finished the third place of the female runners.
This was such a great experience for me .

交通整理は完璧で、給水所では後半、お願いすれば、足にスプレーをかけてくれたりした。路上の応援も多く、高校生の集団の応援に応えようと手を上げたら、そこから思わずハイタッチが始まり、泣きそうになった。応援が力になることを一番感じた大会だった。
There were so many supporters and volunteers on the road , along the road and at the drink stations.
On the road after 30 kilometers, there were about 20 high school students cheering up the runners. When I ran beside them and raised my hand , they started to give me five , which really moved me and I almost cried .
Supporters really gave me energy and I wanna say thank you .

1409人が参加する、今までで一番大規模な大会。常に前にも、後ろにも選手がいるのは、単独走の心配がなく、走りやすかった。
1409 runners joined full marathon.
I’d never experienced such a big race .
There were always runners before and after me.I didn’t have to feel lonely because of it.

結果はほろ苦く、実力や練習が足りない、もしくは改善の余地があると痛感したが、これもマラソンであり、この経験を忘れずに、これから強くなっていきたい。
The result was bittersweet. I really felt my ability not good enough and my training not much enough. This is also one marathon experience .I’ll remember it and keep my training to be a stronger runner.
