Yamathon

On November 27, I walked around the Yamanote Line in Tokyo with my friends for the charity, Oxfam. Our team had 4 people, who are all ALTs, but Japanese people also did the walk. The walk was about 35 kilometers or 22 miles. The first half was really enjoyable, but the end was really difficult. The part around Shinagawa seemed especially difficult. We walked from 7 a.m. until 7 p.m. We began at Harajuku Station and ended at Harajuku Station. I took pictures at every station, but I have only included a few here.

This is around 6:30 a.m., right before we began the walk.
This is my walking team.

This was the 1/2 way mark. We tried to make it with people, but it doesn't look like 1/2.
