YOKOHAMA TO SHIBUYA

HOUYHNHNM RUNNING CLUB♡ HNF Special
~I ran from Yokohama to Shibuya.

On October 13, 2019, HOUYHNHNM's 15th anniversary was celebrated with an event called "HNF (HOUYHNHNM's Fest)". While the event was threatened by a record-breaking typhoon, the start time was moved and the venue was rearranged, and the event managed to go ahead. HOUYHNHNM's running community "HOUYHNHNM Running Club♡" also participated by running from Yokohama to Shibuya, the festival venue. Here is a digest report of the day's events!

The starting point is
BEAMS PLANETS Yokohama".

By the way, why is the starting point in Yokohama? And why is the finish line in Shibuya? Some of you may wonder.

The reason the finish line is in Shibuya is because Shibuya Stream, the venue of the festival in Huinamu, is in Shibuya. This should go without saying.

The reason why we started in Yokohama is because BEAMS PLANETS Yokohama is currently holding a run-focused fair titled "Roundabout RUN Club," and one of the brands it carries is Salomon, which is supporting this event.

Participants going through the registration procedures at the starting point, BEAMS PLANETS Yokohama. As one would expect from people applying for a 25-kilometer event, they all looked like fierce competitors who "run regularly.

The event also featured a shoe rental service provided by Salomon, which supported this event together with BEAMS Planets. The shoes were the "SONIC RA 2" model. It is a road running shoe with a good balance of cushioning and resilience, and its unique Vibe™ technology midsole structure suppresses vibration and alleviates fatigue.

Salomon may have a strong image of outdoor activities such as trail running and skiing, but recently the company has also been focusing on road running shoes. In fact, Salomon's road running shoes are also doing quite well.

Special T-shirts made especially for this run event will also be on sale. The body of this T-shirt is made of Salomon's quick-drying material.
