Big thanks to @adidasjapan for the support and to @yuota0119
I’ve been using @adidasterrex shoes for over 4 years — my favorite trail shoes that always help me find speed on race day.
I was at FUJI100 recently for aid support and athlete care!
I had the honor of treating world-class runner John Stingray Onifa. He’d been struggling with back pain for months, but my acupuncture fixed it in an instant—he called it a "miracle!"
It was an intense experience meeting amazing people and exploring this new world. Can’t wait to keep supporting more runners!

Weekend race Asumi 40km, A Hard Lesson, A Stronger Return.
From the beginning I tried to stay side by side with the front pack, but my legs were too heavy to follow. The course was flat and runnable, yet my body just wouldn’t respond. I kept trying to hold a steady pace, but today wasn’t the day.
Racing a 100KM last week and jumping into another speed-focused race taught me a big lesson. Not every battle will go my way but every one will make me stronger.
Thank you to the organizers, volunteers, and everyone who supported and cheered for me. I’ll come back ready to fight again.

@mt.fuji100 Asumi 40KM , Back for My Third Time
Tomorrow at 12 PM, we start the Asumi 40KM, part of the World Trail Majors. This place has been a big part of my journey STY 90KM in 2018, Fuji 100 miles in 2025 where I had to withdraw, and now my third time returning with more experience and more heart.
I just finished a 100KM last week, so I’ll give whatever strength and speed my body still has. That’s racing show up, fight, and trust the work.
Also excited to share the trail with my future teammate @romnick_tongkaling New chapter, same passion.

@danaocitygovtofficial 3rd edition, My 2nd 100KM Journey
Every race tells a story. Last year, the rains and slippery trails tested our patience. This year, the heat pushed us to our limits. That’s the Philippines weather Unpredictable, but it reminds us that true strength comes from adapting and persevering.
Crossing the finish line without injuries is a victory in itself, but what makes me proudest is running alongside @elmaguinjoebert and @larry.apolinario , They never left my pacing, proving that talent shines brightest when paired with commitment and teamwork.
To the organizers, volunteers, checkpoint crews, and fans, You are the heartbeat of this journey. Your support fuels us to go further, endure harder, and believe stronger.
This 100KM wasn’t just about finishing, It was about proving that with grit, unity, and passion, we can overcome any challenge.
