Running
Training for my first full marathon. Five races on the 2026 calendar — from a Gold Label half at the Yellow River estuary to a 35 km trail finale. Tokyo 2027: lottery entered, fingers crossed.

Travel
Japan, deeply and repeatedly — Tohoku in winter, Hokkaido in snow, and one unforgettable night aboard the Mizukaze sleeper train through San’in.
