My Take
The 3000m steeplechase asks you to run distance, clear barriers and land in water, and Japan was told for decades that it could not win here. Then a kid from Hamada in Shimane made the final at the Tokyo Olympics, went again in Paris, and kept rewriting the national record. At 168cm he is not built for it. He floats over the barriers anyway.
