Since I didn't watch world xc due to it's time being so early, I missed the awesome spectacle of
Hiroto Yoshioka trying to crawl across the finish line (his feet got there but he was DQd).
Anyway, he's still not full recovered by says his main goal is to make outdoor worlds this year. If he does, he'll be the Japanese NR holder.
Yoshioka's main goal for the year is making this summer's Budapest World Championships. The qualifying time is 13:07.00, faster than Osako's 13:08.40 NR. But Yoshioka's ambitions are even higher. "
