Kenya Karasawa, who won the silver medal at the Tokyo Paralympics, paid a courtesy call on Mayor Takagi of Shibukawa City, Gunma Prefecture, and reported on the results of the tournament. Kenya Karasawa, a representative of Japan on land and from Shibukawa City, visited Shibukawa City Hall with warm applause. At the Tokyo Paralympics, Karasawa won a silver medal at 5000 meters and finished 4th at 1500 meters, showing a great run despite his first appearance. Mr. Karasawa, who paid a courtesy call, said, “The support of everyone in Shibukawa City and Onogami area has helped me to produce results. I am really grateful.” In response to this, Mayor Takagi worked hard for Karasawa, saying, “We would like to congratulate everyone on the achievement of the achievement.” Karasawa is already preparing for the Asian Para Games, the world championship scheduled to be held next year, so he is aiming for the long-sought gold medal at the Paris tournament three years later.
