Handina kumbobvira ndafungidzira kuti ndaizomhanya yangu yekutanga marathon muJapan. Asi ramangwana rakapindira uye nekukurumidza kuenda kumberi: Ini ndakakomberedzwa negungwa reNeon girini inomhanya shangu, zviso zvakatsunga, uye Sakurajima: gomo rinoputika rinotenderera pamusoro pedu pamutsetse wekutanga. Chiripo ndechekuti nhangemutange iyi *yakapotsa* haina kuitika. (Ahem: 26 Mistakes * Kwete * Kuita Usati Wamhanya Wako Wokutanga Marathon)

Ngatidzokerei kumashure.

Sezvo ini ndaive mudiki, kuyambuka-kumhanya kumhanya chaive chinhu changu. Ini ndakafugisa yakakwira kubva pakurova iyo inotapira nhanho uye nhanho, pamwe nekuverengerwa kunze kwekutora yangu yakasikwa nharaunda. Nekukoreji, ndakanga ndichivhara avhareji yemamaira 11 kusvika ku12 zuva nezuva. Nenguva isipi, zvakava pachena kuti ndakanga ndichizvisunda zvikuru. Manheru ega ega, imba yangu yekurara yaizara nekunhuhwirira kweChinese apoti

Zviratidzo zvekunyevera zvakanga zviri kwose kwose-asi ndakaomesa musoro ndakasarudza kusazviteerera. Uye ndisati ndazviziva, ndakanga ndakasungirirwa zvigunwe zveshini zvakanyanya zvekuti ndaifanira kupfeka brace uye kutenderera nekiyi. Kudzoreredza kwakatora mwedzi, uye munguva iyoyo yakatambanuka, ndainzwa sekunge muviri wangu wanditengesa. Nenguva isipi, ndakapa mutambo uyu kutonhora kwandakaita uye ndakasimudza mamwe maitiro ekusimba-kusimba: cardio pajimu, kurovedza uremu, yoga, uye Pilates. Ndakaenderera mberi nekumhanya, asi handifunge kuti ndakamboita rugare neni pachangu kana kuregerera muviri wangu nekuda kwekuzviona "kukundikana" uku.

Ndokunge, kudzamara ndamhanya iyi marathon muJapan.

Kagoshima marathon yave ichiitwa gore negore kubvira 2016. Sezvineiwo, inosvika pazuva chairo rakafanana nechimwe chiitiko chikuru: Tokyo marathon. Kusiyana nekutinhira kweguta guru remujaho weTokyo (imwe yevashanu Abbott World Marathon Majors), iyi nzvimbo inoyevedza (aka dunhu) iri padiki Kyushu Island (inenge saizi yeConnecticut).

Paunosvika, iwe unobva watya nekunaka kwayo: Iyo inoratidzira Yakushima Island (inofungidzirwa kuti Bali yeJapan), yakasimudzwa minda senge inozivikanwa Sengan-en, uye makomo anoputika (ataurwa pamusoro apa Sakurajima). Inofungidzirwa humambo hwematsime anopisa mudunhu.

Asi nei Japan? Chii chinoita kuti ive nzvimbo yakanaka kune yangu yekutanga marathon? Zvakanaka, ndeye über-chizi kubvuma izvi, asi ndinofanira kuzvipa Sesame Mugwagwa uye yakakosha episode yakanzi "Shiri Huru MuJapan." Rurefu irworwo rwekupenya kwezuva rwakandiita kuti ndive nerunako nenyika. Pandakapihwa mukana wekuti ndimhanye Kagoshima, mwana ari mandiri akave nechokwadi chekuti ndati "hongu" -kunyange ndisina nguva yakakwana yekudzidzira zvakakwana.

Sezvineiwo, kusvika pakuenda marathon, Kagoshima, kunyanya, imhanyi inofadza ine shanduko shoma. Iyo yakatsetseka kosi ichienzaniswa nemamwe makuru marudzi akapoterera pasirese. (Um, senge mujaho uyu wakaenzana nekumhanya mana marathoni kumusoro uye pasi Mt.Everest.) Zvakare zvakazara nevanhu vane zviuru gumi chete vatori vechikamu (zvichienzaniswa ne330K iyo yakamhanyisa Tokyo) uye, semhedzisiro, munhu wese ane moyo murefu zvinoshamisa uye ane hushamwari.

Uye ndakataura here kuti urikumhanya padhuze negomo rinoputika-Sakurajima-iro riri mamaira maviri chete? Iye zvino ndizvo zvakanaka chaizvo.

Ini handina kunyatsonzwa iwo hukomba hwezvandakanga ndazvipira kusvika ndazotora bhebhi rangu muKagoshima Guta. Hunhu hwekare "hwese-kana-husipo" hunhu kubva kune yangu yapfuura kumhanya basa kwaive kubvongodza zvakare-kumarathon iyi, ndakazviudza kuti ini ndaisatenderwa kutadza. Rudzi rwepfungwa, zvinosuwisa, ndizvo chaizvo zvakakonzera kukuvara munguva yakapfuura. Asi panguva ino, ndaive nemazuva mashoma ekugadzirisa ndisati ndatanga kumhanya, uye zvakandibatsira zvakanyanya kuzorora.

Yekupedzisira nhangemutange gadzirira.

Kuti ndigadzirire, ndakakwira chitima kweawa kumaodzanyemba ndichipinda muIbusuki, guta riri pedyo negungwa pedyo neKagoshima Bay uye (risingashandi) Kaimondake gomo rinoputika. Ndakaenda ikoko kunokwikwidza uye kuora mwoyo.

Vemunharaunda vakandikurudzirawo kuti ndiende kuIbusuki Sunamushi Onsen (Natural Sand Bath) kune inodikanwa detox. Chiitiko chetsika nemagariro, "gushiro rejecha" zvinoratidzirwa kudzikamisa asima nekuvandudza kutenderera kweropa pakati pemamwe mamiriro, sekutsvaga kwakaitwa naNobuyuki Tanaka, purofesa wezvematongerwo enyika paKagoshima University. Izvi zvese zvaizobatsira kumhanya kwangu, saka ndakazvipa. Foshoro dzevashandi dzinopisa jecha dema dema muviri wako wese. Ipapo iwe "unopfungaira" kweanenge maminetsi gumi kuburitsa chepfu, rega pfungwa dzisina kunaka, uye zorora. "Zvitubu zvinopisa zvinonyaradza pfungwa, moyo, nemweya kuburikidza nemaitiro aya," anodaro Tanaka. Chokwadi, ndakanzwa kusununguka mushure meizvozvo. (PS Imwe nzvimbo yekutandarira muJapan zvakare inokuita kuti unyure mudoro rekugadzira.)

Zuva rapamberi peiyo marathon, ndakadzokera kuKagoshima City kuenda kuSengan-en, mubayiro unohwina mubindu wechiJapan unozivikanwa kukurudzira nyika dzekuzorora uye kuisa yako Reiki (simba rehupenyu nesimba). Mamiriro acho ezvinhu ainyatsoita kuti zororo rangu remukati risati rasvika; ndichifamba kuenda kuKansuisha neShusendai Pavilions, ndakazokwanisa kuzviudza kuti zvaive zvakanaka dai ndisina-kana kutadza-kupedza mujaho.

Panzvimbo pokuzvirova ndimene, ndakabvuma kuti kwakanga kuchikosha sei kuteerera zvinodikanwa zvomuviri wangu, kukanganwira nokugamuchira zvakapfuura, uye kurega kutsamwa kwose ikoko. Ndakaona kuti kwaive kukunda kwakaringana kuti ini ndanga ndiri kutora chikamu mukumhanya zvachose.

Nguva yekumhanya.

Pazuva renhangemutange, vanamwari vemamiriro ekunze vakatinzwira tsitsi. Takaudzwa kuti kuchanaya mvura zhinji. Asi pachinzvimbo, pandakavhura mapofu angu ehotera, ndakaona matenga akajeka. Kubva ipapo, kwaifamba muchikepe kuenda kumutsetse wekutanga. Imba yandaigara ku (Shiroyama Hotel) yaive ne pre-mujaho wekuseni uye zvakare yakagadzirisa zvese zvekufambisa zvekuenda nekudzoka kunzvimbo yemarathon. Phew!

Bhazi redu rekuvhara bhazi rakananga pakati peguta uye isu takagamuchirwa semaselebs ane hunyanzvi-kuwanda kwehupenyu-saizi yekatuni vatambi, anime marobhoti, nezvimwe. Kuva smack-dab pakati peiyi anime nyonganiso kwaive kutsauswa kunogamuchirwa kudzikamisa tsinga dzangu. Takaita nzira yedu takananga kumutsetse wekutanga uye, maminetsi mashoma mutambo usati watanga, chimwe chinhu chemusango chakaitika. Pakarepo, mukona yeziso rangu, ndakaona gore rine hohwa howa. Yakanga ichiuya kubva kuSakurajima. Yakanga iri dota inonaya (!!). Ndinofungidzira kuti dzakanga dziri nzira dzegomo rekuzivisa: "Vamhanyi ... pane zviratidzo zvako ... gadzirira..."

Pfuti inobva yarira.

Handimbofi ndakakanganwa nguva dzekutanga dzenhangemutange. Pakutanga, uri kufamba semamolasses nekuda kwehuwandu hwevamhanyi vakarongedzerwa pamwechete. Uye ipapo nekukasira, zvese zvinhu zvinomhanyisa kumheni. Ndakatarisa tarisa pagungwa revanhu pamberi pangu uye kwaive kusiri kuona chaiko. Pamusoro pemakiromita mashomanana akatevera, ndakava nezviitiko zvishoma kunze kwemuviri uye ndakafunga kwandiri: "Wow, ndiri kuita izvi chaizvoizvo here??" (Heano mamwe mafungiro iwe aungave iwe uchimhanya marathon.)

Kumhanya kwangu kwaive kwakasimba kudzamara mucherechedzo we17K apo marwadzo akatanga kupinda mukati uye mabvi angu otanga kuputika-zvakaita sekunge mumwe munhu ari kutora jackhammer kumajoini angu. Iye "wekare ini" angadai akarima kuburikidza nekuomesa musoro uye nehasha, achifunga "kukuvara ngakutukwe!" Neimwe nzira, nekugadzirira kwese kwepfungwa nekufungisisa, ndakasarudza kusa "kuranga" muviri wangu panguva ino, asi teerera pane kudaro. Pakupedzisira, ndakakwanisa makiromita 14, inopfuura zvishoma hafu. Handina kupedza. Asi kupfuura hafu? Ndainzwa kudada neni pachangu. Chinonyanya kukosha, handina kuzvirova ini mushure. Nekuda kwekuisa pamberi zvandinoda uye kukudza muviri wangu, ndakaenda nemufaro wakachena mumoyo mangu (uye hapana kumwe kukuvara mumuviri wangu). Nekuti chiitiko chekutanga ichi chainakidza, ndaiziva kuti panogona kuve neumwe mujaho mune ramangwana.
