Tokyo marathon

Today was the Tokyo marathon  day, tens of thousands of runners, both top class athletes and citizen runners, run in Tokyo street.  I don't know why but the day of Tokyo marathon is bad bad weather all the past times.  Today was one of the worst weather day with low temperature and rain.

Unless someone you know runs, not much to do other than to go on the road, cheer people and shares a feeling of "LIVE" event.  But today, thanks to Joseph Tame who run the course with his iPhone attached, LIVE broadcast himself on USTREAM and Twitter, it became so special and more than 2000 Twitter users could have "involved' in the event with him.

We then went down to cheer him on the street, USTREAM him on our iPhone, and recorded it.
