Ep. 13: Imaizumi and Naruko's 1000km

13

On the first training day, Imaizumi, Naruko, and Sugimoto complete 200 km, while Onoda finishes 165 km. Following Mikishima's advice, Onoda increases his pace. The captain mandates 10 to 15 minute breaks and starts 30 minutes later. Sugimoto shares energy jellies with Onoda after he reaches 250 km and feels stiff. Imaizumi and Naruko avoid breaks to gain ground but remain evenly matched. On Day 2, Cycle Time contacts Sohoku for an Inter-High interview, which Naruko declines. As the team sleeps, the scene shifts to Kyoto Fushimi High School to observe Midosuji's training methods. Finally, the narrative moves to Hakone to show the progress of their training regimen.
