Good day, everyone.

I'm SKE48 Team E's Kamata Natsuki, nickname Nacky.

Today I got to appear at the live broadcasting of SWITCH! (Tokai TV Programme) in the studio. It's the final episode to sum up the project "The Road to Nagoya Women's Marathon", which started last year November.

While watching the VTR which the staff burned the midnight oil to finish, it brought back a lot of memories when I watched my first training session.

It was my first marathon, my first full marathon too I successfully completed the course!!! More like I completed it with everyone's help.

For those who trained me from zero, or I should say "minus point" until I can run properly, And the staff who gave their full support to make sure I could complete the course, And also the 2 members who supported me, Thanks for everything! I wouldn't be able to complete it for sure alone. I received a lot of cheers too when the camera wasn't shooting at me.

"Thank you" doesn't convey my full gratitude That's how much I feel about it I'm irritated at myself for being poor at expressing my feeling.

On the day itself, I was shocked as the venue was very cheerful; beyond my imagination, it was like a festival. I saw cosplayers taking photo with each other, others looking for their friends and giving them a good hug.

I was trembling. But then I kind of enjoyed without realizing it when I started running.

I received cheers from audiences of all age ranges along the course, and also from the runners too, like "You are a member of SKE48?! Please do your best!" It was fun for the first half of it, around 10km.

My legs started aching extremely bad during the second half of the course. So that's how a human body reacts to it huh...(after a long run) I was running together with Ryouha until half way. Then we had to continue at our own pace instead, so I felt lonely.

Ryouha was a really hard worker, so I had to do my best too!!! I even remember I gibbered during the run to take my mind off the pain, but I couldn't remember what I had said.

I might be able to meet with Yumana-san half way!!! That was the biggest motivation that kept me running. Because my senpai is running at her best, so I have to do the same too. That's what I thought.

"Running is fun" The first person who told that to me, and taught me was Yumana-san.

The enjoyment you feel when you reach the finish line, it's just like how you feel when you reach home

I could heard the music from the inside of the Nagoya Dome. When I saw the entrance gate, the loneliness suddenly hit me My training is over. I won't be able to see the staff members who was involved with this project, and also the members from different team again（ ; ; ）

The loneliness is overwhelming in myself.

As things got harder, my face became very stiff as if I was unhappy. I wish I could enjoy more and reach the finished line.

That's my only regret. And that makes me want to challenge it again. That's my personality.

I want to participate in women's marathon again next year if there is another one. That's my thought right now (°▽°)！！

Right after I finished it, I felt happy, sad, and lonely. I had no idea what's in my mind anymore. What makes me feel that is definitely because I enjoyed myself very much during the training and the actual marathon too.

I make it sounds so simple. (No it’s not)

It would be much worse if I challenge it by myself. But it might not as bad as I think. (Might learn something different instead)

You will see it differently after you have finished the run. When I heard that, I asked "Why is that...?" I didn't get it at first, but now I really do.

I got to express my sincere gratitude to my family again through this project. Thanks again 😊

For those who are involved in this project, Thanks again!!! I'm glad that I took on this challenge!!!
