¡¡Aug. 12th, 2003 ¡¡ |
The 1st day of my summer vacation.
I simply went back to Sendai, although the route was quite different.
It was a start of my discharge vacation.
Please follow my diary with seeing map.
8:00 a.m. I departed from Nakajo by motorcycle.
I went South on Route 7 (national road), Route 14 (prefecture road) and Route 49 (national road).
I took 1st break. I had already run about 100km.
I went South again on Route 400 (national road).
It had narrow, bumpy and zigzag road.
I went South on Route 121 (national road).
11:00 a.m. I arrived at Kinugawa hot spring and took a bath.
The distance from Nakajo was 200 km.
0:00 p.m. I started running again.
The temperature was going down, and I also went down Route 63 (prefecture road).
2:00 p.m. I arrived at Utsunomiya.
I ate Gyoza, favorite food of this city.
3:00 p.m. I went down again on new Route 4.
I arrived at Tokyo at last!
But I lost my way.
I knew that touring mapple was useless for center of Tokyo.
I made a U-turn near Yasukuni shrine.
The siren blew.
I was caught by a police motorcycle.
Devil took it! There was a no U-turn area.
I was punished with a fine of 6,000 yen.
The road to Gold license is not easy.
6:30 p.m. I run 400 km from Nakajo, and got to the Nipponbudoukan.
It was the first time to go into this building.
I bought the SEX MACHONEGUNS last live ticket.
In 1997 new year¡Çs eve, I took part in the X JAPAN last live at Tokyo Dome.
In 1999 new year¡Çs eve, I took part in the SeikimaII last mass at Tokyo bay NK hall.
So, it was a 3rd time for me to take part in the last live.
As soon as I took my seat, the live had started.
I didn't have a time to rest.
They were called back to the stage four times and played and raged 20 songs.
The live was finished at 10:30 p.m.
I started running at 11:00 p.m.
I lost my way again.
I recognized my poor sense of direction.
0:00 a.m. I got to the Tohoku express way.
Astonishingly, it was Urawa I.C.
As soon as I started running, the sign said,
"Sendai 360 km"
I was shocked and questioned to myself .
"Can I go back to Sendai safely?"
After that I run 200km at a dash.
I took a break at Asaka P.A.
The sign said,
"Now the temperature is 18 Centigrade"
Unbelievable! It was mid August, wasn't it!
I run again at a dash and arrived at Sendaimiyagi I.C. safely.
I didn't go straight to my home.
I went to the archery club room.
The juniors were playing mah-jongg.
They said to me.
"You look tired. What's happen?"
I told them that I run 750 km by motorcycle.
They answered to my explanation.
"You are quite exciting man after the graduation, aren't you?"
Thank you. It was a praise word for me.
I got to home at 4:00 a.m.
The rain didn't start at that time.
