A marathon runner Mizuki Noguchi won the gold medal in Athens Olympics, so she is also expected to win the gold medal again.
But there was shocking news yesterday. She entered the hospital! According to the press conference of the Japan Association of Athletics Federations today, she hurt her thigh and the test and the treat is conducting now, and it will become apparent in a couple of days whether to run or not.
