About Me
- Name: GKK
- Location: Tokyo, Tokyo, Japan
I live in Tokyo and fill most of my time with running (when I'm not working). I'm pretty new to running - although I have run the London Marathon and I've recently got a bit competitve in 5km runs (my best is a 17.33 set on the track). I don't cycle so much these days, but I've ridden all around the world, including Manchester Velodrome; Herne Hill Velodrome in London; the Adelaide 'Superdrome'; Launceston 'Silverdome' and the roads of Australia, Belgium, Britain and France. These days I ride just for fun and fitness - somehow I own a better bicycle now than I did when I used to race. 私は東京に住んでいます。仕事をしている時以外は、いつも走っているか、サイクリングをしています。オーストラリアやヨーロッパで自転車のレースに出場したことがあります。今は私の自転車を6.8kgの重さにまで軽量するため、改良中です。

The other day, I interviewed a Japanese marathoner Mari Tanigawa for her book, and it was mostly about her injury history. I can't tell you everything here, but tell you one tip.
If you feel pain, and if the pain grows, don't do anything that gives the part impacts, which means no running. However, you can walk, cycle and swim. And if you swim hard, you can keep your cardio vascular fitness level very high. Running on the soft surface is an option if the pain doesn't bother you that much.
Take care.
