On November 2nd Nanjo-City had its annual Sho-hashi Marathon...
Tetusya our 3rd Phase student took on the challenge and trained and prepared to run the race.
There was about 7000 people who entered and challenged them selves to the gurling task.
Tetusya did very well 2hours and 40 minutes he was in the 2000 mark out of the 7000 we are all proud of him .

God's plan
Tetusya's mum and brother came down from Heyogo prefecture to see him run and was amazed to see the difference in him he was quick to give God Glory and the same night we all went to Calvary Chapel and was Blessed all around...Tetsuya's mum later told she could not deny the work of God in her son she was happy to finally get him back...
