Just like I said I would, I took my first (Japanese) run Monday after work. TJ, Japanese runs are very similar to regular runs but they are in Japan. I decided to run north along the beach as its really the only way I knew to go. At first I passed a parking lot full of surfers that was emptying out for the day. Kamogawa is a surfing destination in Japan. Once I passed the surfers the trail became somewhat smaller and what was the beach turned into more of a fishing village. Unfortunately, with the fishing village came the sights and smells of the fishing village and I was forced to turn around rather quickly. Still, I got in about 3.5 miles. Not bad for my first run in over a week (and commensurate with what was recommended by the DMM running coach!).
The next two days I decided to go the opposite direction down the same beachside trail. Much better. I passed Sea World Kamogawa and went through downtown Kamogawa. The downtown here has a pedmall! I can't really tell what anything is, but it is an area that only pedestrians can go, so that's exciting. The last two days I went 4 and 5 miles (also recommended by the DMM running coach).
Hate to be the one to break this to you, but "Japanese runs" refers to diarrhea caused by the consumption of Japanese food, most commonly sushi.
