There are some people whom you won't remember their faces after a while, but some you will remember for a long long time because of their distinct persona.
Mr. Spiderman has been in full suit during the 7 days of the competition. When the race began, I thought he was just being funny. But as the race proceeded, it seemed that he derived certain strength from living the persona of Spiderman. But he is Spiderman with a twist, occasionally taking out his bible for a boost of faith. I really had a good understanding of what this identity meant to him on the final day. I was sweeper he was in front of us. Along the competition trail, despite fatique and pain, he went through the ritual of putting on a pair of stretchy hot pants with the words "Iron Man from Ginza" written on the butt. After walking for longer, he had to put on his Spiderman boots and Spiderman cape. Most people wouldn't understand what he is doing, or what kind of faith drives him. But to have the faith to persist to the end of this race is no doubt strong faith.
