Hello!
I have the opportunity to carry a mikoshi but I am a little worried about the whole thing.
Since I have living here this is one of the things I wanted to do the most, but I have never considered my circumstances.
I am 183 cm tall, and have small shoulder contractures time to time. This makes me think about suffering a lot or get badly injured.
The people who invited me told me that there are rests and can switch places, but don’t know if it’s ok if I step out when feeling pain or really tired.
I really really want to do this, but I don’t want to do anything that bothers anyone or is disrespectful towards the matsuri.
Can anyone tell me their experiences or know a little bit more?
