Comment People told me “It would be difficult to start from zero. “It's better not to do that.”, etc. However, some people encourage me “Go for it!” “I'm rooting for you!” and believe in me.
I will show you interesting matters, such as how I am doing triathlon at the Los Angeles 2028 Paralympic Games and how I am changing from zero. Please look forward to it!
