Yes, Tokyo should be a great race. |

At some point I would really like to get over to Japan for a marathon. If not Fukuoka then one of the many others with the stadium start/finish. |

Tall Paul is still right at the front, just off the pacers. |

Naturally, but my true yen would be to run in one. |

Tergat looks pretty relaxed, just hanging out towards the left of the screen. His arm carriage is not looking strained or stressful. |

As Japanese marathons go, it is kind of a pretty course. |

That would be fun. I think Tokyo would be an interesting one to do. |

Guta, Asmerom, Bouramdane, and Rios are all right there, too, just behind the four pacers. The rear of the pack is stringing out quite a bit, though. |

Down to about 10 in the lead pack now, Guta to the rear. |

Just 8 people now including the pacers |

Tokyo would be epic, though I really liked the course of the last one I saw (blanking on the name still) that was along the coast. Otsu? Bippa? Yikes. |
