Oda Memorial Meet Streaming


One of Japan's major spring meets, Hiroshima's Oda Memorial Meet kicks off Friday at 9:00 a.m. A dozen members of the Tokyo Olympic team and international competition from Australia and Kenya are spread across 13 events, with some of the main races happening as follows, local time:
  • 14:15 - Men's 110 mH final
  • 14:30 - Women's 100 mH final
  • 14:45 - Men's Triple Jump final
  • 14:50 - Men's 100 m final
  • 15:25 - Women's 3000 mSC final
  • 15:40 - Men's 3000 mSC final
  • 18:20 - Women's 5000 m final
  • 18:40 - Men's 5000 m final
If you catch one thing in the meet make it the men's 5000 m. Already qualified for this summer's Oregon World Championships 3000 mSC, NR holder Ryuji Miura (Juntendo Univ.) is mostly giving the steeple a miss this season to work on his speed. A few weeks back he missed the 1500 m NR by a tiny margin in his first serious attempt at it, and here he'll be giving the 5000 m a go. His fastest competition is another Juntendo-bred steepler, 2016 Olympian Kazuya Shiojiri, who has run 13:16.53. If it's anything like Miura's 1500 m, expect it be the race of the day.

Start lists are here. The complete meet schedule is available here.

Damn, until a couple of days Hyuga Endo, Keita sato and Yamato yoshii were on the start list.
Would have been great to see the rematch between Endo and Miura After that 1500m race 2 weeks ago.
And to take a look at Yoshii After the Hakone Ekiden performance.

Will be fun to see matsueda in the mix After losing against Miura in 2021 XC Nationals.
