Running Michael's energetic broadcast! "Genki-haishin"

Greeting from the Genki-haishin Executive Committee

 

Running Michael Jackson??

 

At first, we were taken aback.

 

It's true that he wanted to do something to support the recovery efforts after the Great East Japan Earthquake, but...

 

Really?

 

Michael himself is dead serious.

 

Pushed by his passion—which has a narrow field of vision of only 1 cm, but a depth of 10 km (lol)—the Genki-haishin Executive Committee set into motion.

 

The Running Michael Jackson delivers smiles and energy by running and dancing. As he repeatedly visited marathon events held in affected areas, that mysterious power began to spread, bit by bit.

 

The number of supporters grew.

People started looking forward to his visits.

Teammates joined in to run alongside him and deliver energy together.

 

Since it's a marathon, it is by no means easy. But he loves both Michael Jackson and marathons, and above all, he wants to bring joy to those watching!

 

It seems that's all he cares about (lol).

 

First, you have to enjoy it yourself and be energetic, or you can't energize anyone else.

Besides Michael Jackson, he fully transforms into universally recognized figures like Freddie Mercury from QUEEN or Ronald McDonald to bring energy to everyone together. During Hideki's "Y.M.C.A.," as many as 50 "School Mates" ran and danced alongside him to help deliver energy. We are truly grateful for this.

 

It has been over 10 years since the Running Michael Jackson began his activities.

 

He continues to deliver small doses of energy, involving spectators along the roadside, race staff, and even fellow runners around him.

 

Many people and places are in need of "energy."

 

We want to expand our reach slowly, steadily, and persistently, doing what we can right now. If these small bits of energy gather together, they should become a magic spell that energizes the affected regions and Japan as a whole. And someday, we want to cast a magic spell on the world—so that everyone can be full of energy.

 

We have learned that there are many people besides us who share the same aspiration and support the areas affected by natural disasters in their own unique ways. We would be grateful if you could continue to warmly watch over our small efforts to deliver energy.
