Held in the stadium where Japan saw its first-ever sub-10 clocking for 100 m, Saturday's new Athlete Night Games in Fukui meet produced four national records highlighted by an incredible men's long jump competition. Yuki Hashioka (Nihon Univ.) opened with a jump of 8.32 m +1.6 m/s that shattered the national record dating way back in 1992 by 7 cm. Hibika Tsuha (Toyo Univ.) followed him with a jump of 8.21 m + 2.0 m/s that put him into the all-time Japanese top three, then bettered that with an 8.23 m +0.6 m/s.
Out of nowhere, Shotaro Shiroyama (Zenrin) knocked them both back in the record books on his third jump with a new national record of 8.40 m +1.5 m/s, the #2 mark in the world so far this year and only his second time clearing 8 m with a legal wind. Japanese fans were quick to compare the trio's results to this season's Diamond League meets.

The national records continued in the hurdles. In the men's 110 m hurdles, Shunya Takayama (Zenrin) took 0.5 off his own record to win in 13.25 +1.1 m/s, Japan's first-ever sub-13.30 clocking. In the women's 100 m hurdles Asuka Terada (Pasona), a former collegiate hurdler who retired to become a pro rugby player and mother, then came back earlier this year after six years away from the sport to target next year's Olympics, dropped a 13.00 +1.4 m/s to tie the 2000-era national record.
Hopes were high that another national record would come in the men's 800 m. Former national record holder Masato Yokota (Nike Tokyo TC) paced 17-year-old wunderkind Allon Tatsunami Clay (Soyo H.S.), national record holder Sho Kawamoto (Suzuki Hamamatsu AC) and others through a 51.30 first lap. Clay couldn't sustain that pace but managed to hang on for the win in 1:46.63, his second time breaking 1:47.
Kirara Shiraishi (Cerespo) led the men's 200 m in a PB of 20.27 +0.8 m/s, his first time ever clearing the Doha World Championships standard. Runner-up Shota Iizuka (Mizuno) and 3rd-placer Jun Yamashita (Tsukuba Univ.) also went under the Doha standard for the first time this season, a breath of relief for the veteran Iizuka and a PB for Yamashita.
Back in the stadium where he made history, Yoshihide Kiryu (Nihon Seimei) won the men's 100 m in 10.05 +0.9 m/s, with regular 4x100 m relay teammate Shuhei Tada (Sumitomo Denko) 2nd in 10.20. Midori Mikase (Eniwa Kita H.S.) won the relatively low-key women's 100 m in 11.69 +0.6 m/s.
A day later at a pole vault meet in Kisarazu, Chiba, national champion Masaki Ejima (Nihon Univ.) and veteran national record holder Daichi Sawano (Fujitsu) both succeeded in clearing the 5.71 m Doha World Championships standard. Ejima moved up to all-time Japanese #3, with Shingo Sawa (Kiraboshi Ginko) cleared 5.61 m to move to all-time #7. As the national champ Ejima guaranteed himself a spot on the Doha team, with Sawano a likely addition come the final team announcement in mid-September.
