This is my second attempt at a 100-mile race. My first attempt was the Koumi 100 last year, but I had to drop out after two laps (66 kilometers). This race holds a special place in my heart because it was produced by Mr. Kaburagi, who was instrumental in getting me into trail running. I was so excited to become a miler in this race. However, this was my first experience of a race lasting more than two nights. It wasn't as easy as I thought, and I faced many difficulties, but I also learned a great deal. I hope this will be helpful to anyone planning to take on a 100-mile challenge in the future.
