We take a snapshot of the stylish people we found at the Ultra-Trail Mount Fuji!

We often hear that "many trail runners are fashionable," but is that true? We visited the site of one of Japan's largest trail running races, "ULTRA-TRAIL Mt. Fuji," to get a glimpse of the runners resting at aid stations during the race and the staff supporting the event operations from behind the scenes!

--That's the whole time you were filming the race?

Almost . Maybe as hard as the players.
