The shoes? Just kidding....probably is the shoes but he is still really good.
Now Japan has a Man faster than Ryan Hall's 2:04.58, 4th Fastest non African ever behind Kigen of Turkey 2:04.16
A Man from Bahrain and a Belgian Man, All 3 of those were born in Africa, but developed in their current Countries.
Per Japan Running News at least four more sub 2:07, and maybe over 30 under 2:10 (or 2:09?)
Also, YUKI KAWAUCHI 2:07:27?!?!?!?!!!!!!

He finally switched to those thick-soled asics prototypes this year. Still pretty impressive considering he only managed 1:03:21 with the same shoes two weeks ago
41 under 2:10.00, 40 of them Japanese. https://twitter.com/JRNLive/status/1365856658446901249
I’m super stoked for Yuki
Does this bounce Osako from his Olympic spot?
Apparently 40 guys went sub 2:10, I'll post a thread of all those guys (most of them having PB'd) when its official
Kengo was a 2.10.21 runner
Well that does it, I'm getting myself some super shoes. If Yuki can all of a sudden set a PR after years not even coming close, I can too.

Hall’s time doesn’t count anyway, Khannouchi is the American record holder.
