My favorite artist

I'm not almost interested in art since I started physical activity.
But I have a favorite artist,his name is Kaii Higashiyama.
He was a landscape painter.His art is calming for me.

There is a his museum in Nagano,and I sometime went there while I'd lived in Nagano.
I haven't looked them for a long time.

Now his exhibition is open in Tokyo.

When I look at his paintings,What do I feel about them ?
I'd like to go and look at them.

Growing plants

My boyfriend want to grow plants in his garden.
Growing plants is hard so I tried to discourage him.But he couldn't give up.
So I decided to supprt him.

When we tried to buy seeds,the woman in the seeds shop adviced us many things.
She said ;
1.plow the ground
2.put the manure
3.after them,sow seeds in beginning of May

I was very thankful for her information and moved by her excellent customer service.

Actually the soil in the garden was too hard.We started to plow the ground and pulled the weed.
we are going to sow seeds after trip.
I'm looking forward to plants.

I gave up OumeTakamizu trail race

I was going to join the race this Sunday.
As it passed just a week since the full marathon,I registered 15km race.
But I felt a sore throat when I got up on the race day.
I understood my sore throat the alert from my body and decided to stop running.
My body is more tired than I thought.

After I saw Kazuya to go the race,I went to bed again.I slept enough till noon.
Then I felt well and didn't have a sore throat!

I recovered from sore musles by full marathon,but the damage is deeper than I thought.

Kazuya went home in the evening and was satisfied with his result.

Sakura full marathon

I finished target race on 3oth March,my aim was under "3:30".
But my result is "3:32:05".I almost could reach the aim.
It passed a few days after race,and I'm getting to realize satisfaction.
I'm glad that I could run faster about 4 min than my personal record although I can't entry the Tokyo international marathon.

It's my best race.

Some day I'd like to run under 3:30.
