Sorry. JJP > No, this was the Seto ekiden. I actually did run the Ikata ekiden later; it was the same section as you ran, and I totally kicked ass. I passed the only runner ahead of us to put my team in the lead, and came in third for that section. Charles > It's a little bit of both. Unfortunately a konbini-hopping race wouldn't work very well since we only have one konbini. Yeah I know I’m answering these comments months too late. Sorry.

You should start a club and invite me as a guest speaker :) Do you actually have to run these because of a masochist obligation to your job or you’re just masochist ? :P You know what would be great, instead of ekiden, konbini-hopping races to see who drinks the fastest and to test your knowledge of the town and its konbini.

If so, that's the one they put me on. It's no fun. All I thought the entire time was, "Who the hell actually ENJOYS this?? Why? Why?" Was the section you ran the one between Kucho and Toyonoura?
