WOOOOOOOO!

(also, it was this weekend?!? D: I missed it!)

[asakiyume.livejournal.com]

I missed it too--too far from my father's house to there. But I followed his progress online :D

GO Wakanomori!!!

I'm rooting for you!

[asakiyume.livejournal.com]

I'll tell him you were :D

[cottonmanifesto.livejournal.com]

OH HOORAYYYY!!!!!! tell him congrats from me, that's quite a feat!

[asakiyume.livejournal.com]

I will! It is totally awesome! And it's not like he's had tons of time for training, either--it's really totally great that he finished, and pretty much at his predicted time and pace, too.

Go, Waka, Go!
Veni, Runi, Vici!

He will totally appreciate the water!

Let me reiterate: Holy burning feet batman!
Well done you crazy cat!
I expect you'll be sleeping for the next two days, right?

Congrats. Superb time.

[asakiyume.livejournal.com]

I thought so too! And yet he had been planning on an even faster time, he told me--well next year ^_^

[asakiyume.livejournal.com]

He is ^_^ He tells me he sped up at the very end!

[cimeara.livejournal.com]

Awesome! *clapclapclap*

[asakiyume.livejournal.com]

^_^

(I have to get him to come by my page and see everyone's comments!)

[intertribal.livejournal.com]

Wow, nice job! (I just ran 3 minutes and feel like death, so... yeah!)

[asakiyume.livejournal.com]

Thanks! Yeah, I have yet to run one-twenty-sixth of the distance, so I'm pretty much in awe, here.

[dark-phoenix54.livejournal.com]

Yay!

[asakiyume.livejournal.com]

Hee--thanks for the applause!

[deponti.livejournal.com]

Yay wakanomori! Great going!

[asakiyume.livejournal.com]

Thank you <lj user="deponti"!

[peppergrass.livejournal.com]

HOORAY! That's fantastic! How many does this make now? Is this his best time?

[asakiyume.livejournal.com]

This is only his second! His first was last September, and it qualified him to run. I'm not sure which time was better, his time in the other one or this one. I know he was a little disappointed in his time for this one, but I also know that it was good enough so that he qualified to run again next year, so he can try to improve if he wants.

Yaay!

[asakiyume.livejournal.com]

Thanks Nine! It was an adventure; I'm so glad he did it.

[skogkatt.livejournal.com]

WOOO! Awesome! Congratulations, Waka!

[asakiyume.livejournal.com]

Thanks skogkatt! Check out shikuchi's entry--she talks more about it and mentions a carousel, which got me thinking of your carousel-touring plan....

[amanen.livejournal.com]

Aww yeah I totally blogged about it!

We saw a clip of the race on a TV at a station, but all we could see were the people at the very front. But OH MAN were the trains crowded.

So, YAAAAAAAAAAAY HE DONE IT

[asakiyume.livejournal.com]

HE DONE IT!!

Your day sounded fantastic. I loved your entry. Write a story about a bus line for ghosts, please. (Um, that last sentence was meant to be humorous, not, y'know, an actual formal request or anything. I just thought it was so cool.)

[usha123.livejournal.com]

sounds like a great timing..is this his first?

[usha123.livejournal.com]

sorry, I think I got an Indianism in there..would you say 'great time?'..now I am even more confused!

well, what I meant was that (with a son who runs marathons) 3.22 sounds very very good to me :-)
