Just finished runner-up at the All Japan TT Championship in Kahoku city of Ishikawa-prefecture, one of the disaster affected areas of Noto Peninsula Earthquake 2024. While my aims of achieving fourth consecutive championships at Masters was not reached by a step, it is always wonderful thing to observe some memorable games of life demonstrating the passion and outcome of daily efforts of sport-lovers. I thank all players for that. I got a sharp pain at my back, which maybe a part of normal phenomena of master’s players., ha ha. My friends, please do take care of your body and health through carefully calculated way of training and practice. It was also important experience to see earthquake affected areas and think what we can do for recovering from suffering and devastation by such disasters. Next year’s championship will also be held at Ishikawa prefecture and wish and pray for the earliest recovery from the natural disasters for all affected people and families.
