Tokyo Marathon will be held on the coming
Sundy. I began in 2007 and now is one of the biggest marathon events in the
world. Every year, over 300,000 applicants apply for the entry and about 36,000
are chosen by lots.
This year, it is said that over 10,000
personnel including policemen will watch the event for security purpose as the
fear of terror is growing after two Japanese hostages were killed by ISIS. The
runners will not be allowed to bring plastic beverage bottles and other water
containers.
I wonder it is hard and uncomfortable for
the runners to participate for the events. I myself will not run at the event.
Instead, I will join the campaign for the mayor of Taito-ku (where Asakusa and
Kaminari-mon locate) after the runners pass by there.
