National University Track and Field Championships Day 1 Streaming and Preview


Streaming of the first day of the 2022 National University Track and Field Championships in Kyoto will be on all day Friday. Distance highlights include the men's 1500 m, 3000 m SC and 10000 m, and the women's 1500 m and 10000 m. The women's 3000 m SC final is scheduled for Saturday, with both 5000 m happening Sunday. Men's 1500 m U20 NR holder Keita Sato (Komazawa Univ.) is running, with a great duel with Kazuto Iizawa (Tokai Univ.) in the cards. Men's 3000 mSC NR holder Ryuji Miura (Juntendo Univ.) is entered but skipping the meet, having instead run the Diamond League final in Zurich, Switzerland. Women's 10000 m collegiate record holder Seira Fuwa (Takushoku Univ.) is entered in both the 5000 m and 10000 m, but after missing almost the entire year after an Achilles tendon injury at January's National Women's Ekiden you have to hope she's not actually going to try to double and that they'll be making a last-minute decision about which race she'll run, if either. Complete meet schedule and entry lists.

The amount of pressure on Seira Fuwa must be intense. Undoubtedly, there is an incredible amount of expectation on her young shoulders. I noticed they even had a TBS special segment from her time as a spectator at the Oregon World Championships. I hope she copes and puts in a solid performance without suffering any injuries. I'll be curious to see how high the YouTube Livestream view count increases when her race comes up. By the way, it's great that they livestream this event.
