Among this group there is an interesting news about Miura: he Will be at the Diamond League meeting in stockholm next week running 3000 meter against outstanding competition.
Brilliant decision by Juntendo, Jaaf or whoever called for It: he needed world class competition badly as in Japan he has been going through the motion on track given his kick strenght.
He can learn a lot in a race he rarely runs ahead of the world championship.
I don't think suguru osako record is at risk but he can certainly improve his 7.48 PB given the field of athletes there likely making it a very fast race. It's a great test to see where his true potential Is.

The level just keeps going higher and higher , hitting the point this year where there are teams with 10-runner averages of 13:33.10 for 5000 m, 27:55.98 for 10000 m, and 1:01:20 for the half marathon. It's never been better, and with great weather in the forecast it's safe to say this could be one of the best races in Hakone's 102-year history, especially on Day One. If you've seen it then you know NTV's live broadcast is the best sports broadcast in the world, with the pre-race show kicking off at 7:00 a.m. Japan time on the 2nd and 3rd and the race starting at 8:00 a.m. sharp. If you've got a VPN you should be able to watch it on TVer starting at 7:50 a.m. on the 2nd , and again at 7:50 a.m. on the 3rd . There's even a 2-hour high...
