Japan is one of the top countries in the world for marathoning. There are multiple examples of Japanese races with literally hundreds of people running under 2:20. Why is this so? This week, Brett Larner, the writer behind Japan Running News, came on the podcast to discuss the historical and cultural reasons that Japanese marathon fields are so deep. It was a fascinating conversation.

Vi har lenge vært imponert over populariteten og nivået på langdistanse i OL-landet Japan. Nå forteller ekspert Brett Larner, som har bodd 21 år i Tokyo, oss hvorfor det er blitt sånn og hvordan det japanske systemet fungerer. Hør mer om historien, stafettene som kalles Ekiden, tv-dekning, skolelagene, omfanget av sponsorlag, OL og værforhold, Covid-19 og selvfølgelig trening. Vi har også snakket med Karoline Bjerkeli Grøvdal som løp under verdensrekorden på 5 km. Både hun og treneren forklarer hvordan alternativ trening gjør at hun løper mindre enn noen gang, men er i sitt livs form.

Brad's bouncing after pacing Gold Coast despite contending with the headwind for the reps session, plans his racing for 2018 and family Brady comes down from Byron to race half the distance at Sandown and the campaign for the Berlin Marathon officially begins with some intense banter. NSW XC Champs were held at Wollongong with Bankstown taking the points over Sydney University, Jordan Gusman once again taking out another win while Paige Turner took line honours in the women's race. http://nswathletics.org.au/News/waratah-series-short-course-cross-country-gusman-again http://nswathletics.org.au/News/waratah-series-short-course-paige-powers-to-win Listener Question of the week asks the boys for recommendations in books and social media and the return of Moose is Confused as the boys scratch their heads after the call to halve the race at Sandown, assessing the nuances of the decision & future implications. This week's guest is Brett Larner, the man behind Japan Running News chatting with Brad about how he started with the website and his involvement with the Japanese running scene. Brett gives insight into the culture around running in Japan and the depth of talent, especially around the half marathon-distance and the national significance of the Hakone Ekiden. He goes on about how Japanese athletes develop through both the education and corporate levels and how they look to progress in the future.  Brett also talks about his relationship with Yuki Kawauchi, with the particular focus on the leadup to the 2018 Boston Marathon and what drove Yuki's decision to follow professional running.
