SHOES 
A couple American stores that have been helpful to me in the past:
SuperJocknJill -lots of good advice: shoes, training, health. How to buy a shoe.
Portland Running Company also has lots of good information. Types of shoes: cushion stability control
Some stores in our part of Tokyo:

B&D stores Tokorozawa (see map- East exit, beyond and to left of tall glass building), Kichijoji, Tachikawa, etc. Huge inventory of track stuff.

high school, college track meets and cross country. in the USA. And an amazing collection of video coverage of recent meets.
Great YouTube of USA men`S 800 Olympic trials and Japanese women`s 10,000m Olympic trials (English narration). Story about 800m Olympic qualifying in Eugene Oregon, on July 1 2008.
New USA 2008 high school boys 2-mile record 8:34.40. That`s 4:17 mile twice! 3K time was 7:59.
Other highlights:
2008 Washington State High School Track&Field Championships;
including an amazing display of sportsmanship: Official`s horribly bad call in 7th lap of 3200m stands; athletes resolve the mistake themselves. Read ESPN.

You can look at the following courses, courtesy of USA Track&Field maps with Google Earth.
Kurome and Ochiai Rivers loop (Lots of rubber):
9.2k version , 11.5k version - closest to home
Karabori and Yanase Rivers (Higashi Murayama, Akitsu, Kiyose):
Bike to the river near Akitsu station, or ride the train.
9.6k Down&Back KaraboriGawa-YanaseGawa (the two rivers meet at Koganei Kaido) downstream from Shiki Kaido. The Rivers run between Akitsu, Kiyose and Shin Tokorozawa. lower part has best stretch of the river for shade, soft, grassy paths. Fantastic 1260m loop totally in the shade, can run in dirt rather than paved path.
Can go downstream all the way to juncture with Kuromegawa and then back up to CAJ (35k loop starting in HK - nice bike ride)
11k Up&Back KaraboriGawa upstream from AkitsuStation / Shiki Kaido to intersection with Tama-Ko bike trail. Best stretch of river for wide, well-maintained, well-lighted trails both sides of river. Great night running, biking (all the way to Lake Tama!).
Rubberized Running-loops:
Park in Hibarigaoka 2.5k jog from CAJ to 620m loop.
Park in Wakoshi 7k bike ride to 800m and 1000m loops. Lots of shady trees.
Grassy and Dirt Running trails:
5k Niiza Sports Complex 3.5k bike ride from CAJ. Shade
10k Down&Back KuromeGawa To Harp Bridge. Dirt path (use paved side on rainy days).
9.6k Down&Back KaraboriGawa-YanaseGawa downstream from ShikiKaido
Koganei Koen Google maps, not trail-marked
A wee bit more distant:
Seibu Dome/Tama Lake 5k race site
Can train here alone if you wish. Do a lot of strides in the grass
Seibu Dome/Sayama Lake Dam
2.6k + many variations, nice hills; some paved, some dirt; pea gravel area good for ankle strength. Safe to train here alone if you wish.
Seibu Dome/Sayama Lake Full Loop
Solitary 10 mile (16k) 2/3 dirt path. Good biking too. Don`t go alone - take a friend.
Seibu Dome/Tama Lake Full Loop
Solitary 9 mile (14k) all paved. Don`t go alone - take a friend
Seibu Dome area on Google maps - larger view
Bike ride - it`s about 35 K from CAJ via YanaseGawa to TamaKo and around. Add 10k if you include going around SayamaKo.

History of Cross County, Fartlek, Aerobic and Anaerobic training.
Kanto Finals - Historical average for 10thplace. The quality of Kanto girls was very high this year. 17th place was equal to the average for 10th place. See See full list 10th place, 1979-2007.
Food for Thought: Kanto Gender: Would the top 7 Kanto guys or the top 7 Kanto ladies do better at an American state meet? As it turns out,...
