At last we made all the way through! Okinawa is as nice a place to sit back and take a break from a long race as one could ask for. 
Thanks Matt for getting it organized and fellow racers for adding to the count!

It’s done already ? I had a few (a lot?) of reviews to add too xD (68 today, got busy this past few weeks so they got stacked)
おめでとう

The next step is obviously visiting all of the prefectures and actually eating the food! 
Too bad I can’t turn my reviews into yen…

Oh yes, too bad you can’t turn them into yen …
So you might as well just give them to me …
I don’t know how to turn them into yen either …

Well, that’s a problem now isn’t it?
Maybe I can just turn them into real life Japanese knowledge instead.

Here’s the badge for the race! You’ll be seeing it credited in your accounts soon.
(Just please bear in mind its a slow process and it won’t show right away, sorry for the inconvenience!)
Since the theme is a race from Sapporo to Naha, seemed natural to pick a dish from each site and have them represent the start and end of the race.
On the left side a Genghis Khan, right a Goya Chanpuru. Both typical dishes of each of these regions!
It was a bit tough to create that badge cause it kept making me hungry. 
Thank you so much for participating everyone, and see you all in the next race!

I loved reading your little essays, even when I wasn’t doing reviews I kept checking in on this thread.
Well done everyone.
