This year, due to COVID-19, trail running competitions and events across the country have been postponed or canceled. This has not only affected runners, but also us manufacturers, who have lost not only sales (lol) but also motivation.

During this time, while talking with ambassador Doi Ryo, we asked, "Is there anything we can do?" and "Especially at a time like this, can't we do something to liven things up a little?"

For those who don't know, Ryo Doi is a top athlete who has achieved brilliant results in races around the world. Below are some of his achievements.

・UTMB_2015: 11th place ・UTMF_2018: 6th place ・UTMF_2019: 8th place ・Hong Kong Four Trails Ultra Challenge_2019: Finisher
・ Kurondo Rondo_2020: 1st place

He said, "What I can do is teach him running techniques," and as a milestone, he wants him to try out the flagship model headlamp, Trail Master, which he developed with Doi.

How was the Trail Master developed? How is it used on actual trails? What is the thought behind this Japanese-made headlamp, unlike those made overseas?

I hope that my thoughts can be conveyed directly to as many people as possible.

So we decided that instead of doing it on our own, why not team up with core shops that are rooted in the local area to liven things up? If we were going to go anyway, why not go on a road trip by car and go to a different place every day to hold an event? We decided to go to the Kanto area first, and things progressed smoothly like this, and we were able to contact shops as well.

Shops in each area who will be cooperating this time are...

・10/29 (Thurs) Runarx Running Company (Saitama)

・10/30 (Fri) Ametsuchi (Tochigi)

・10/31 (Sat) Stride Lab (Tokyo)

・11/1 (Sun) The road is straight (Yamanashi)

It is very rare to have a trail session with Doi in the Kanto region, so if you are interested, please contact the shop mentioned above.
