Record of Suzhou Jinji lake half marathon

Along with your company——Record of Suzhou Jinji lake half marathon

Time: 9:00 to 11:00 a.m. 8/April/2012

Field day is coming. I wake up as soon as my alarm clock ringing,and then dress up orderly as fast as I can. The T-Shirt issued from the committee is not fitting,thus I decide to wear my own shirt.

In consideration of the mistake of toray marathon,I just eat some breads as breakfast.so as to avoid stomachache.Checking once again to make sure that nothing is missing,and then I set out with Zach at 6:30.

We walk to Weiting town to take the No.106 bus. Unexpectedly, there are a lot of people in the bus,they prefer to shopping than sleeping at home.

A flock of old ladys dressing uniformly get on the bus in halfway. We assume they are cheering squad of the game.

We arrive to Moonlight Dock ahead of schedule,and leave an hour for warming up.

Zach suppose to take a group photo with his friends of  Aipaobu running club,in order to mark this occasion. But unfortunately, we didn’t find them until the roll call.

Standing in the crowd,filling of passion,we’re waiting for the sharp crack of starting gun,which seems ahead of time once more.   

There are so many athletes that we can’t open up the running at first.My darling follow with me,exactly like he promised before. I inspirited by his tender company,as a result of cuting the time to 27 minutes for the first five kilometer.

Form now on ,my left leg start paining.I thought that my legs are recovered after a week’s rest,but practice and time prove everything. He order me to slow down my pace .But it doesn’t work,things get worse and worse.

At this time,we meet the "spider-man" again,he wear his unique bizarre dress just like last year,and run like the wind.

Zach keep picking up mineral water for me so long as we pass by the drink stations. But the supply of drink is not quite enough,which means the committee still need to improve.I feel better after drinking.

Zach tell me to take easy, slow down and enjoy the scenery.But I still feel guilty to get in his way.Because I know that every race is important to him,not only a game,but also a challenge to himself.

Singapore Suzhou Industrial Park is well known with its beautiful scenery. It shares the reputation of "the paradise of the world" with Hangzhou. Fantastic view,fantastic way, fantastic guy. Time flies., we already access to Ligong dyke before I knew it .

Bridge after bridge, restaurant by restaurant,Ligong dyke is one of the most luxurious and scenic residential area of Suzhou, "Small dish"says that the finish is close at hand,but I almost exhausted.

It's probably as the saying goes,"Half of the people who have embarked on a one hundred mile journey may fall by the way side", the last part of an endeavor is the hardest to finish.

When we finally see the guidepost of 20km,my boy take my hand,and run faster and faster.It’s really encourage me and make me catch up with him. Everybody on the road gaze us with admiration and cheering,it looks like the race is just holding for us,for commemorating our love and youth.

We can watch great movie,taste delicious dinner,talk heart-to-heart as many couples,but we choice to running together for our healthy and interest.I wish we could run hand in hand forever,through every roads ,every difficulties.

His big sister standing by the wayside shake her hand to us.We smile to her and keep going.,and go all out to pass the finish.The field is totally out-of-order,we can’t even find a bottle of water..It’s really disappointing.

Unexpectedly,I won a T-shirt depend on this poor grade. Due to the T-shirt is not my size,I give it to my sweetie to express my gratitude.Not too bad.

Sum up experience and lessons of Jinji lake marathon,I guess there maybe four points:

First of all,short of exercise. The more suffering in ordinary time,the more relaxed in the race.From late February to early April,there are only 40 days spare for training. Deduct several rain days,several rest days,the training time actually 20 days left.The sole training of 15km is too far away from good.Because of  stomachache, I break off 20000 meters twice,and involve Zach in my mistakes.

Second, my physical condition get worse. Spring returns to the earth, the everything renewed, your body should be more healthy than winter according to common practice .But I am an exception owing to the abortion.I afraid I have to pay more attention to myself form now on..

Next one, paces. I can’t control my paces in an ideal rate,sometimes it’s too fast,and the others is low,especially in the beginning of a race.1km to 5km,warm up time;5km to 12km is my advantage stage;12km to 21km, strength decline.If I could adopt my good points and avoid shortcomings,my performance will be highly improved.

The last one but not the least one,injuries.I’m not sure if I could figure my legs out in the next three weeks.What I can do just take a break and wait with more patience.You can escape from injuries as long as taking exercise.The more you pain,the more you gain.

I feel terrible to in face of his big sister with a sweating,unkempt and inelegant appearance,that must be a bad primary impression.

She invite us to eat self-service hot pot in the Harmony times square.A sumptuous lunch put a full stop to this marathon.

I text "King of southwest"when I come back to my dormitory,and know that he has a happy journey.

I remind him to buy the return ticket as soon as possible,because we have a wonderful date in March,Yangzhou.

In the end,the most important thing is to show my greatest thanks to my dear, respected, gallant Marathon fighter——Comrade "a small dish".

Attribute to your education,I became a hobbyist of marathon. Running can’t extend our lifetime essentially,but it can certainly increase the meaning and quality of our limited lives.

I wish we could always encourage and company with each others, sweetheart,run the way of love together for the rest of our lives.It’s the most romantic thing I can imagine.
