Ganbatte – is Japanese for - give it your best – give it your all – preserver – never give up,  depending on your translation. These were the cheers inaugural Kaua’i Marathon winner JT Service heard as he battled the snow-struck Iwaki City Sunshine Marathon course this past Valentines Day.

JT filled us in on details of his 3rd place finish (which ended in a full sprint) his host city’s hospitality, wardrobe malfunctions, pre-race snowstorms and more from his “JT does Japan” series at his BLOG and via our Twitter.
