Personal:

Attended Japanese high school and finished in March 2020. Was very lucky to be able to be a member of a very good team of runners at my high school, even though I was injured most of the time and was not able to be much of a contributor. Am currently doing an Engineering internship at a large manufacturer of Automotive transmissions, etc. It is really exciting. In spring of 2021, if COVID-19 has subsided, I am planning to serve an LDS mission, after which I plan to go to college and study Engineering.

Today I went to the ITU Yokohama triathlon.

It was so exciting.  It was my first time to attend a triathlon race. 

It started out with the swim.  There were so many people watching the race and I was not able to get to a spot where I could watch the swim well, but I did watch it from a far distance.

Next was the bike portion.  I couldn't believe how fast they rode.  You could hear the whirling sound of the wheels as they passed by.  It gave me goose bumps watching them.

Finally was the running portion.  After the bicycle portion, all of the athletes looked so tired.  I couldn't imagine them being able to run fast in that condition.  Also the temperature was in the 80s.   But all of these athletes surprised me.  They have so much determination.  There was even one runner from France that had a crash in the bike portion, and had blood running down his face during the run, but still kept going.  The winner was from Spain and ran 10K in under 30 minutes.

It would be fun to try a triathlon someday, but first I would have to learn to swim fast and to ride a bicycle.
