Full of pride and tears.

Remember Xizi girl’s 43-kilometer cross-country hike.

The first hike in the Year of the Ox in 2021 was the Xizi Girl in Hangzhou West Lake, which climbed 2,300 meters over 43 kilometers, ending perfectly after going from night to day and then to night. The announcement and preparation for this event were completed more than a month before February 15, 2021. The number of people who signed up at the beginning was close to 30. In the end, due to the epidemic and the Chinese New Year, many people gave up. The number of people traveling ended up being 17. In the early morning of February 15th, the fourth day of the Lunar New Year At 4:00, 5 cars departed from Pudong, Yuepu, and Songjiang respectively, and arrived at Xiangdu Tower, the starting point of the hike, at 6:45 in the morning.

Almost all of them are big names in cross-country hiking, led by the 239 masters in Malaysia, and the goddesses are also at the 320 level. They are all masters who are much better than me. It is still very stressful to lead such a team, and It was my first time to participate in several two-step activities. Outdoors brought us together by fate. We were full of pride, positivity, tears in our eyes, and never gave up.

? This event should be the most brutal one-day event in the Year of the Ox. Under normal circumstances, such a large-scale event will not be organized this year. You will drive back and forth on the same day at your own risk. Once you enter the mountain That is to fend for themselves, so the team members have certain requirements for physical fitness and trajectory use, and they have to drive back and forth. The hard work and abuse are obvious. All team members are well prepared for the most difficult work. 7pm is the gathering time and our door closes. The time is 12 hours.

? Set off at four in the morning, everyone gathered around 6.45 in the morning, took a group photo at Xiangdu Building, warmed up at Jiuxi Bus Station, and then started a long journey of self-abuse. After 3 kilometers, there was no one in sight at the end of the downhill. After waiting for a while, I ran away on my own. With so many people, I couldn’t live without a complete Xizi girl trajectory. I thought that it would take 10 to 11 hours to grit my teeth. Normally, it should be 10 to 11 hours. It can be completed. Since I am not familiar with the road, I am afraid that I will go wrong and I can only keep checking my phone to confirm whether it is correct. The girl finished drawing the first hand (right hand) and returned to CP7. She sat down to replenish the supplies for the first time. Since the off-road bag was too small, she could only finish it. It can fit two small breads, and the rest is water, energy gel and salt pills, and a power bank jacket. After all, it’s still quite cold in the morning and evening, and I’m afraid it will be cold in the afternoon. When we set off, the weather forecast was for light rain to turn cloudy. We got there at 8 o’clock The sun came out at the beginning. I was really lucky. I only had a fleece jacket and shorts to dry, but I still ran a little wrong a few times.

Cp7 After finishing the only two small breads here, I saw a foreigner running cross-country. He was very tall and ran very easily. He looked like a master at first sight. He rested for about 10 minutes and learned about it on WeChat. Many people ran the girl's feet first and then came up. Some ran the wrong way and drew the head in the opposite direction to mine. Anyway, I didn't care and just drew my own. It was the same. When I started running again, I felt that my physical strength had recovered. A lot,

I had learned about the road conditions on this route before, including the supply points on the road, and the temperature, so I decided to put on shorts and brought a short-sleeved shirt to change into at CP7. , persisted until the end and threw it away.

I met several friends along the way, some coming in the opposite direction, some staying alone. Loneliness and loneliness should not exist for them. They are all people who have experienced ups and downs, so there is no need for me. Worrying about it, since many small supermarkets were closed during the Spring Festival, I looked at the map on my mobile phone to find supply points, and listened to the sound of the water bag shaking to judge how much water was left. Finally, I bought water in a small supermarket, a 1.5-liter large bottle of water. I filled up the water bag and took another energy gel. I should have run about 23 kilometers by now. I didn’t feel much in my leg muscles. The effect of the energy gel and salt pills was probably quite obvious, so I continued running and finally chased. We got on the wrong side of the Yangtze River, and he was the girl who walked first with another foot, so we finally separated. I still had the last foot, so I ran that section of the road in the morning and the road conditions were familiar, so I bought it at the first supply point in the scenic area. bottle of Gatorade, and started running down. This time it was basically steps. The last zigzag running method of leaping down two steps felt safe and fast because the steps were relatively wide, but this running method required The strong quadriceps support, otherwise the knees would not be able to bear it. I thought that the last leg could be easily handled, but I didn't expect that it was not a downhill but an uphill at the end. At this time, I had run about 37 kilometers, and I started to curse.

There was about a kilometer left at the end, and I suddenly felt hungry, and I didn’t have any strength at all. It really felt like being hungry and panicking. I was very afraid of getting dizzy, so I only had water in my bag. I was so wet that I couldn't even run downhill, so I had to sit down and rest. At this time, I happened to look at my phone to check on my friends. I also put on a fleece and a coat, so that They all wore clothes to avoid hypothermia. The wind started blowing at 4pm and they felt a lot colder. Some walked 20 kilometers, some walked more than 30 kilometers and returned to the parking point. There were also three girls who had just arrived. On the right hand side, there are still 8 kilometers to go back to the parking point. With all my physical energy exhausted, it will probably take more than 2 hours. I walked the Xizi Girl Pass two steps and then walked to the parking point. My watch recorded 43 kilometers, two hours. The walking record was 38 kilometers with a climb of 1900 meters. It took 4 hours and 44 minutes. It must be wrong. The GPS was lost along the way, so I know that the two-step data today must be inaccurate. It should actually be 40 kilometers and a climb of 2300 meters. I completed the Xizi The girl took 9 hours and 12 minutes.

The last three people completed the whole journey with tenacious perseverance. Although the headlights were on, they felt beautiful and they must have been even more beautiful in their hearts. It was almost 10 o'clock when everyone gathered and returned home.

Personally, I feel that continuous mountain climbing can help my body recover better. The fishbone line and Qionglong Mountain for two days on 16.17 allowed me to recover almost. Maybe my body and mind have become one with the mountains and wilderness. I can feel it. The mountain is waiting for me, and the mountain can sense my arrival. After my friends experienced sore legs for a few days, the group started to get excited again and began to tease me to choose a route without steps. They are all a bunch of masochists. It’s great to be young and always have a strong desire for challenges. Never admit defeat, may they remain young and energetic forever.
