Tanaka Yumi became a celebrity overnight at the Olympics. I’m sure there is no track and field fan who doesn’t know her name, but there are many who first learned about her at the huge event that is the Olympics, and she has been making waves in online news every day. This footage was taken in April of this year at the National Grand Prix, held at the Oda Memorial in honor of Oda Mikio, the first Japanese to win an Olympic gold medal. The Oda Memorial was held in rain for several years in a row. Tanaka, who was strong there, later came to be known as the Queen of the Rain. She also had a playful side to her, as she didn’t realize she had set a personal best last year, but it was also the Oda Memorial in the rain that saw her first time running under 12 seconds. She was chatting with an overseas athlete at the time, and it is said that she was nicknamed the “Queen of the Rain.” This is footage from 2017 of her first year at university. In her fourth year, she was the captain of the women’s team at Ritsumeikan University, and won the Kansai Intercollegiate Championships four times in a row. She also won the All Japan Intercollegiate Championships and was called the Student Queen. By the way, her academic performance was also outstanding, and she was named Woman of the Year while she was a student. She joined the corporate team in 2021 and placed 6th in the Japan Championships that year. Even though she is the Student Queen, the beginning of the golden age of the women’s 100mH is here. It is a difficult path to beat the strong seniors and become number one in Japan. However, Tanaka is looking at it positively, given her age. She studied classical ballet from a young age and was already the top hurdler of her generation in middle and high school. In her second year of high school, she was determined to quit track and field to pursue her dream of Takarazuka, but… With the encouragement of those around her, she chose the path of track and field instead of Takarazuka. We want her to do even more, and all the fans who are supporting her with that thought in mind are rooting for her. The year of the competition is the 2024 Paris Olympics. Tanaka has a grim expression on her face as she breaks into the 12-second range and competes for the top spot. These expressions are noticeable these days, and you can feel her determination. In a short period of time, with more and more hurdler’s 12-second range coming together, it seems like she is getting closer. A world so far away, still not enough to make it to the Paris Olympics First place went to China’s Wu Yanni, who also did well in the Olympics. Following on from the Oda Memorial, the top Japanese runner was Tanaka Yumi. What was most impressive was her grim expression before the race, but then this expression during the fan service immediately afterwards. In this tournament, which features star domestic male athletes as well as top international athletes, it was Tanaka Yumi who was kept by the fans longer than any other athlete. From the preliminaries she ran in the 12-second range, a great run of 12.90 seconds, but her expression was grim. The Olympic qualification record is 12.77 seconds, and she must push past that limit. And in the semi-finals next to her was Terada Asuka and Murasakimura Hitomi, a legend who was beyond their reach a few years ago, with a personal best of 12.85 seconds and a still not satisfied expression. 0.08 seconds away from the Olympic qualification record. Fukube Mako was in the group ahead of her, and finished second in the fateful final with a time of 12.89 seconds, falling short of the Olympic qualification record… Huh…? But everyone saw Yumi Tanaka’s performance at the Olympics, right? In fact, her PB of 12.85 seconds, which she set in her previous race, was the second-lowest in the world rankings at 39th place, and she was able to grab the Olympics with a very positive attitude. As everyone knows, the greatness of the Olympics is well known. – This is the end of the athlete introduction – Below is an introduction to this site – We will deliver images of female track and field athletes competing.
