'Yuki Kawauchi, l'incroyable Monsieur K'


In October and November France's beIN SPORTS channel filmed a documentary on Japanese marathoner Yuki Kawauchi in Saitama, Hokkaido, Tokyo, Paris and Nice. The program was broadcast on Saturday, Nov. 25. Watch it in its entirety above. Kawauchi next races at Sunday's Fukuoka International Marathon.

Watched it and thought it was a very nice documentary. Well produced and conveying the key features of Kawauchi's character (his incredible body resilience, humility, fighting spirit, etc...) that makes him so popular.

Also good to see you in there to get some of your role exposes and hopefully giving you some recognition for what you are doing, in a way, I think you are both similar (in your own way) with your approach to what you are doing.

Thanks for sharing and for JRN, keep it going :-)

Any possibility for English subtitles? Not sure if I missed something with the settings
