We were so fortunate to meet up with the great Akinori, the Guiness Book of Records holder for doing 52 marathons in 52 days. Such a fabulous person who invited us to run with him around the course that he did his record on. Then invited us for a great lunch with his friends and gave us both a signed copy of his book, thank you so much Akinori. Thanks Toi for all your help over our stay, you were fantastic. All the great photos you took of all us running were brilliant. Good luck to you Alan for all your runs over the year, hope to catch up with you in England somewhere.
