Matsushima Race























































We traveled outside of Sendai to the sea area of Matsushima to watch our coworkers run a 21kilometer race. The goal was to get to the finish line within 2 hours and 30 minutes. If you don't make it in that time they block off the finish line and direct you off to the side within like 20 yards of finishing. If your super slow (I would be in this catagory if I ran)they either pick you up at the 10 k mark (b/c they estimate you not finishing on time), or they pick you up on the slow bus as it drives around. Well we had some who finished, some who "finished", and some that got picked up. While our 8 coworkers were running their hearts out a few of us found a nice park to lounge in and wandered down to the pacific for a restful walk. Here are some pictures and videos of the events, oddities, and landscapes. Sorry one of the videos is on hre twice
