Yoshihide Kiryu (24 = Nippon Life) won the championship for the first time in 6 years. The time was 10 seconds 27.

This season alone, he threw 10 seconds 0 units four times, showing a high average. Between them, I improved the start and challenged for the Japanese Championship. By widening the width of the left and right legs, it was made to come out low and sharp.

The venue, Niigata Denka Big Swan Stadium, is the site of all high schools nationwide in 2012 when Rakunan High School in Kyoto was in its second year. At that time, there was a breakdown and it ended up without a crown. “(Niigata) has no good memories at all. I want to turn them into good memories this time,” he said. The result was exactly what it says.

I was able to pass “positive” even during the period of self-control. I bought weight tools like dead lifts and worked hard at home. I ran around the neighborhood wearing a mask around 5am and 9pm when there were few people. Of course, although he couldn’t practice as much as usual, he didn’t have any negative feelings, saying, “Let’s improve cardiopulmonary function by wearing a mask.” There was no rush, saying, “No one in the world is satisfied.” Growing mentally. The record has also leveled off.

With the title of champion of the Championship of Japan, I feel comfortable in winter training. We will become the Tokyo Olympics (Olympics) more and more.

◆ Road to the Tokyo Olympics It is necessary to meet the standard participation record (10 seconds 05) of the Tokyo Olympics during the designated period, or be in a high position in the ranking of the World Land Federation. On top of that, it was decided to be in third place of the Japan Championship in June next year. Currently, three people, Sani Brown, Kiryu and Koike, meet the standard participation record. Cambridge issued 10 seconds 03 in August this year, but was outside the target period of the standard participation record due to the crown disaster.
