Sunday afternoon

The course of Nagoya International Women's Marathon
(click for a larger image)
Every early spring, Nagoya International Women's Marathon takes place in our city. It's one of the famous and important marathon competitions for women runners in term of being nominated for some delegate athletes for the next coming Olympic games.
Today it was the very day of it. I watched the marathon on TV and enjoyed the competition. Every time there are lots of people along the streets to give the runners big hands and cheer them up. In fact running is a very simple sports but when it comes to the competition, running will be required a lot of techniques and strategies to win. That seems to be very exciting. But more than that, I like watching it especially on TV. It's really fun to see many spots which are very familiar to me. I took some pictures from TV with my mobile just for fun.
