Hakone Ekiden ni Koi wo Shiyou Hashire! Miruko

Miruko is a 25-year old PR person for a cosmetics company. She wanted to lose some weight before the launch of their new products in the fall, but she just couldn't resist the mixed-fry combo meal at the company cafeteria. She took up running, following the example of her beautiful and cool colleague Yamaguchi-senpai, and set her sights on the Hakone Ekiden road race. The popular serialization in "anan", all about the joy of running and the Hakone Ekiden, is finally published in book form. In addition to new episodes, there are also newly written pages including a mini-guide for beginner runners and the author's running fashion recommendations for each season! It is a running comic that will instantly cheer you up!
