I learned many things from Ms.Burtzt's preservation is that trail running can help regional revitalization. Through this activity, she made many people aware of the goodness of Tokamachi and Matsudai. For example, beautiful scenery, local food and warm of people. She communicated these to the people who came to the convention in various ways.Runner run through nature and see spectacular views. At the rest area, they eat dishes made with wild vegetables grown in Matsudai.Visitors interact with local people. But that's not all. She conveyed the goodness of Tokamachi even to the people living there. Local people including children also do trail running together. So, they will reconfirm the goodness of hometown. I feel it is very great.
I thought it would be a great thing to let people know about the goodness of the area through something. In her case, she is spreading the goodness of Tokamachi through trail running. It is effective to convey the goodness as it is, but it is more effective to connect it with something. I think that by doing so, more people will be able to know about it. So, we want to communicate the goodness of the area to revitalize the region through something.
I impressed her power to execute from Ms.Burtz's preservation. For example, quiuing her job in Tokyo and moving Tokamatchi, exploing ancient roads and helding a trail race. Not everyone has the courage to quit her job and relocate even thought she don't know if she will succeed. Moreover, she succeed in her work. She created new possibilities in place she moved to. After going through This experience, I want to acquire the power to exccute. In my further life, I want to keep trying things that I didn't have the courage to do.
I also felt that it was a good idea to convey the good things about the region through something.
