What made you start running?
When I started working, I happened to have an opportunity to work out with some people from my company, and while I was exhausted, the older people around me were able to move at a much faster pace. I was feeling like I was uncool at the time, and that's when I started running. I started running as a way to improve my physical condition so that I could perform better both at work and at play.
I heard that you also incorporate running shoes into your daily fashion.
Yes, that's right. I used to like sneakers, and these days I tend to wear shoes that I can run in without having to change. With the trend toward sports in the past few years, I wanted to try using shoes that are not only fashionable, but are also made for sports. When I express my individuality through fashion, I think that running shoes are more meaningful and persuasive when I wear them with my clothes, since I run on a daily basis.
What kind of image do you have of "ASICS"?
The "GEL-KAYANO26" I wore this time fits the shape of my feet very well, and because it is a sports brand, I can trust it because it is well thought out for its intended use and for my body. . I was also surprised by your previous collaboration with the fashion brand "Kiko Costadinov. . I feel that this is a brand that is attracting a lot of attention not only for sports but also for fashion.
How long have you been running?
About five or six years . At first, I just ran by myself on my days off, but when I joined the running club at BEAMS, I learned how fun it was to run with others. There were many full marathon runners in the community, so I was influenced by others around me and started to participate in competitions. These days, I usually run about three times a week before work, and I try to run at least 5 km for 30 minutes.
. So you run in the morning before work?
. I like to run in the morning while thinking. It's not that I have so many worries, but I feel like it's a time for me to face myself and be at peace with myself. Sometimes I get an answer to something I've been thinking about, or my will is solidified. I like those moments.
