"THE SWEEPERS"

Picking up rubbish along the street wearing One-Tooth Geta (wooden sandal) 

I sometimes work on picking up rubbish as a part of volunteer activity.

"THE SWEEPERS" is a facebook group which I started in December 2012.

Most of members are runners who enjoy running cleaning up their local parks or streets.

Some of the members finish full marathon races carrying a big plastic bag full of rubbish.

Why don't we try something good for our society?

Isn't it nice to do something eco-friendly?

Snowshoe Running

Having fun snowshoe running as a part of winter training.

I easily got hooked on it when I first tried it in 2011.

Today I wore snowshoe for the first time in 4 years.

If you love trail running, why don't you try snowshoe running?

You may feel good running on a soft surface of powdery snow.
