Now it's time to go to the finish gate!
After completing the long 42.195 km run, it was time to head for the finish gate, and Yamamoto was the first of the three to cross the finish line.
The time was 4 hours 00 minutes 19 seconds. Although it was just short of sub-4 (under 4 hours), it was a very good time.
Yuri followed with a finish!
The time was 4 hours, 05 minutes and 26 seconds. This is also a very good time.
About 30 minutes after Yuri, Enomoto was the last to finish!
The time was 4 hours, 38 minutes and 25 seconds. Thus, all three of us were able to successfully complete our first "Lake Biwa Marathon.
Just one week before the Lake Biwa Marathon, Yamamoto had run about 70 kilometers in a trail run event, Yuri had completed the Tokyo Marathon, and Enomoto had fallen and injured herself after getting drunk at a campsite. Despite this, they were able to complete the 42.195-kilometer run with smiles on their faces, each giving it their all.
