    "isthistheend at 05:39 PM JST - 22nd March Amazing times. Seems like Kenyan runners OWN the men's Marathon. Congrats also to Japan's woman runner for taking that crown!"

    Actually, the times are pretty slow by world-class standards, especially on a cool, overcast day...

    northlondon-if you think you will never suffer obesity problems because you ran in high school, you are likely mistaken. I also ran cross country and road races, as well as track, summer track and indoor track (distance events) and have managed to gain quite a bit of weight. If you are still doing the running, then you will may not become obese, otherwise your slim build is a result of genetics, not something you did in high school.

    Chibaman; English, please. Sarge; so cold?! Japan has incredibly mild winters; speaking as a Canadian, I will take a Kanto winter every time...

    I wonder how many times this has been the picture of the day on Japan Today; 5, 10, any guesses?

    I had a colleague point out that Hoshino may very well have been a cutout, mannequin or robot; the guy never moved, encouraged, showed emotion or anything..... "Hoshino Japan" = "Jodan Japan"

    hellokitty; he batted against guys like Nomo, who weren't able to pitch in the majors, right? (a no-hitter in both AL & NL); Japan's BEST can hit (or pitch) against ANY country's best-this Japanese team was weak, but don't lump Ichiro into this mess..

    The Japanese team was complete clown shoes; Hoshino just stood around the dugout showing no support and offering no encouragement for the players. In the last 2 games the Japanese players were silent in the dugout, not trying to encourage each other or pump each other up. And the pitching by committee strategy that Hoshino used in most games (4-5 pitchers a game) was a ridiculous choice; NPB & MLB teams wouldn't dream of trying this; why do it at the Olympics?

    How about people that perform foot hygeine on the train? I have seen several old men, with shoe and sock removed picking away at their toes!
