Uta's 40m Wall: A Growth Spurt Before the June Nisshin Cup Qualifier

Sponsored

This one is not a race-day post. It is a training clip from March 13, 2026, and the title says it all: 'The 40m wall is coming into view! Growth spurt!!'

No stadium or weather is named in this one — it is just Uta, working toward a number, with the Nisshin Cup qualifier, a nationwide elementary track and field qualifying meet, waiting for her at the end of June.

How the day went

There is no venue listed for this clip, so I will not guess at one. What comes through is simpler than a race report: Uta is in the middle of a growth spurt, and her body is changing faster than her technique can keep up with some days. That is the backdrop for the whole video.

The attempt itself

The title puts a number on it — 40 meters. I am not going to invent the implement or the exact throw, since the description does not spell it out, but the gist is clear: she can see 40m from where she is standing, and she is not there yet. That is the 'wall' in the title — close enough to feel real, far enough to still be work.

What a parent took away from it

Growth spurts are strange to coach through. Longer limbs change leverage and timing almost week to week, so a number that felt stuck for months can suddenly move — or a technique that worked in January can feel wrong in March. My job right now is not to chase the 40m mark with her. It is to keep saying that the awkward stretch is temporary, and that the Nisshin Cup qualifier in late June is the actual target, not this one number on this one day.

Anything left over that matters

The description is short — just a line about aiming at the Nisshin Cup qualifier at the end of June — so I am keeping this post short too, rather than padding it with details the video does not give.

Next up is more of the same: steady work until June, and hopefully a clip where she clears that 40m line for good.
