He took up the sport at age 13, and began focusing on the sport at age 18. (nikkansports.com, 30 May 2021)

Philosophy:

"The more that you're able to bring yourself in and let go of your emotions and accept - the biggest thing is to accept the situation. Don't reject it. And once you've accepted the situation, then you think about what you can control rather than reject." (triathlon.org, 07 Apr 2021)
