The shuttle bus from the organizing committee took me to Guilin Central Square, the registration place. During this period, Brother Tiger contacted me many times to care about and provide advice, which made me feel deeply impressed by Brother Run's chivalry.
After signing up and receiving supplies, I walked around the streets of Guilin and rushed to the hotel. The epidemic came to Guangxi again after two years, and the streets were crowded with people, so lively. For a person who likes to play, Guilin is undoubtedly a sacred place. Is the night was excited and had insomnia all night.
At 7 a.m. on March 26, 2023, we set off from the hotel and rushed to the venue. When we arrived, it was already crowded with people, and heroes from all walks of life in abcd district gathered together. I was assigned to Zone B. It wasn't that I had the strength of Zone B, but that I signed up through professional channels and met many colleagues, haha.
All the heroes of all walks of life have extraordinary appearance and strong bodies. However, I was busy eating and drinking after the festival and neglected to exercise, and my body was a little bloated and fat. However, I was inspired by the atmosphere and stimulated my motor nerves.
。There was a gunshot at around 8 o'clock, and the crowd was passionate. I followed the crowd and set out to run. In the rolling crowd, I steadily followed and advanced at a speed of 6 points, feeling in good condition. I think every runner is in an extremely high mood at the moment, and his footsteps are also very rhythmic, like cheerful and passionate music coming from his headphones.
It was already 5 kilometers in an instant. I completed it in 27 minutes and successfully replenished the water and continued moving forward. During this period, there were passers-by cheering one after another, and there were photographers taking photos on the roadside. I also waved my hand in feedback while I hurried and motioned for the photographer to take photos for me. It took 56 minutes to reach the 10-kilometer sign, and I stalked behind a strong runner. Controlling the pace at 5 minutes and 40 seconds is a comfortable pace
。Another 5 kilometers passed, and I felt good and slowed down to 6 points. After all, I was an 8-year veteran runner and I successfully won the 20 kilometers. I was secretly happy that it should be a matter of time to finish the race. Half a horse took 2 hours and 10 minutes to enter the station and eat and continue the second half of the marathon. However, something unexpected happened. Due to the friction between the size 41 running shoes and the football socks, sweat could not be drained. At 25 kilometers away, the toes of his right foot began to feel some pain.
After continuing to slow for 2 kilometers, I had to stop and take off my right sock and insole, which eased. Later, the hero told me that I should wear a size larger for marathon running and have a pair of moisture absorption and perspiration. Good socks. Otherwise, you will definitely grind your feet after half a horse. After that, I slowed down and walked slowly. This was also good. I took out my mobile phone and took photos frequently along the way, and I also followed the runners who kept surpassing me.
It was a difficult process to turn back from 30 kilometers to 37 kilometers. At this time, my thighs also responded. The main reason was that I usually ran less and my physical fitness seemed to have reached its limit. I had to slow down a little further and move forward at 8 minutes pace.
After gnashing his teeth, he finally reached the finish line of the entire horse, which took 5 hours and 25 minutes. Although my results were half an hour slower than my expected goal, I was still very satisfied with myself, especially when there was a group of volunteers cheering for me at the finish line, which made me feel flattered and honored. I think this is the fun of horse racing! I shouted loudly that my first horse in life was safely and perfectly done!
A marathon is a difficult challenge and a spiritual recuperation. After going through the pain of contradictory games between soul and body, we finally get the happiness of harmony, which can definitely heal the soul and breed pride. I think this is the Forrest Gump spirit that everyone runs forward to having!
