Kobe, Japan!


Long time coming and happy to end the suspense, I’ve accepted a job in Kobe, Japan!  I’ll be moving in the middle of the year and hope to end training uncertainty and get back to a structured plan.


Kobe is Japan's 5th largest city with about 1.5 million people.  Located 430km west of Tokyo, Kobe is a port and industrial city.



Why Kobe?  Well, I've wanted to live in Asia since I was 17, my partner is Japanese so that narrowed the search and I accepted a job teaching English with Gaba Corp (primarily business English) who placed me in Kobe.


Maybe most important, Asics calls Kobe it's home, so I may consider switching from Brooks (much debate to be had).
