JAPAN TAKES CENTER STAGE WITH JAVELIN THROW IN THE15TH IAAF WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS

MEN’S JAVELIN QUALIFYING – IAAF WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS, BEIJING 2015

Do you remember the days back in the 1990s when TurboJav arrived to the Japanese Kids Athletics program?  That was a bold and brave move from dealers, and sport program organisers.  Over the past decade japanese javelin throwers just kep moving ahead and started breaking the records!

On August 23rd, during the qualifications of man's javelin throw, Japan’s Ryohei Arai, who took silver behind Zhao at the 2014 Asian Games, threw 84.66m with his last throw for the second-best performance of the competition.  What a great day for Japan!!
