After running the first horse, many people will choose to give up and never challenge the long-distance running again, but some people's brains will cover up their post-race pain and then participate in the marathon again and again ... I think I am one of the latter.
My first horse race was completed in March, 20 13 in Nagoya, Japan. The race was the Nagoya Women's Marathon. A year and a half before that, I was still a "sports * * *" who couldn't even run a kilometer, but I didn't expect to stand at the starting line of the world's largest women's marathon after 18 months of diligent and practical independent exercise. If you want to say, why do I take the Nagoya Women's Marathon as the first horse? In fact, what needs to be mentioned is that the reason why I started running is really related to "Japan".
20 1 1 year, a devastating major natural disaster occurred in the northeast of Japan, namely the March 1 1 day earthquake. Perhaps the earthquake and tsunami did not completely destroy the strong will of the people, but the "nuclear disaster" in Fukushima has become an eternal pain in the hearts of the Japanese people. After the nuclear disaster broke out, Japan's anti-nuclear voice was unprecedentedly high; Some celebrities with social influence even clamored for anti-nuclear, including Haruki Murakami, a world-renowned great writer. During this period, many people began to publicize the anti-nuclear concept by "running a marathon" and encouraged the world not to forget the long-distance running spirit of "remembering the pain and never giving up". This sports craze may be influenced by veteran runner Haruki Murakami, or it may be because "Marathon" was originally a national sport in Japan.
Compared with other sports events, the "marathon" spirit of challenging the limit, exercising the will and having nothing to do with winning or losing is more in line with the national characteristics of Japan. Just like "kendo" and "tea ceremony", marathon is also a kind of "Tao", which is self-cultivation.
20 1 1 At the end of the year, due to the sudden death of my beloved, I experienced a big low tide in my life. At that time, I realized that I had to change completely and become a strong person. At that time, Mr. Gao Qiao Dun, a Japanese predecessor who came into contact with work, was enthusiastic about marathon, and Mr. Gao Qiao Dun also ran with anti-nuclear consciousness in his heart. He also opened a different world because of long-distance running.
His passion for long-distance running made me curious, and even influenced me at that time ... Then I firmly told myself: "I will take' completing the 42. 195km marathon' as my life goal, no matter it takes ten or twenty years! As long as you exercise hard with a clear conscience every day, you will surely finish the race in your lifetime! As a result, a year and a half later, I finished my first Nagoya women's marathon.
Speaking of "Japanese passion for marathon" is really shocking. As a large-scale all-horse race with as many as 10,000 participants, the Nagoya women's horse was robbed in just two days. Even if only female runners were allowed to participate, the lottery system had to be changed afterwards. At that time, the women's group in Taiwan Province Province had just started the popular five-kilometer short-distance fun road run. Some artists who have traveled all over Malaysia can be indexed by hand, but Japanese artists can list "top 100" ... Many male and female artists have performed for two and a half hours and three hours all over Malaysia. This shows the moderate difference between Taiwan Province and Japan in the heat of long-distance running.
In addition, Japan has won several Olympic marathon gold medals, making it one of the best countries in the world after Kenya and Ethiopia. Wild Shui Mu, Yoko Sei and Gao Qiao Naoko are the top ten outstanding female runners in the world marathon. Their score is 2 hours 19, which is beyond the reach of any woman in Taiwan Province province and even most countries in the world. It is precisely because Japanese long-distance runners have achieved excellent results and won glory for their country, and practicing long-distance running is in line with the Japanese nationality, so marathon has naturally become a national sport of the Japanese.
As my first horse, Nagoya Women's Marathon is famous for "the finishing ceremony is a Tiffany necklace", but in fact, what attracts me most is the feeling of running on the track with these seemingly weak girls ... Every girl is suffering great physical pain, but she is still working hard and strong; After crossing the finish line, I burst into tears immediately. The perfect touch of self-achievement covered all the hardships and led me to enter the world of marathon. Since then, I have met some excellent Japanese runners by chance, including Mr. Guan Jialiangyi, who won the Wudong Super Horse Championship in Taiwan Province Province for many times. His autobiographical works have become my further motivation.
In 20 14, I signed up for the Tokyo Marathon, one of the "six largest" in the world. It was my second time to take part in the Japanese Marathon, with complete conference planning, enthusiastic people, high-level runners and touching atmosphere ... Just because there were almost no shortcomings, the Tokyo Marathon was praised as "a perfect race without shortcomings" by runners all over the world, so I began to be fascinated by taking part in Japanese road running.
Running a marathon in Japan, you will find several characteristics:
First, the planning of the conference is very complete, especially for large-scale activities in nominal cities.
Second, the people are super enthusiastic. Often, people who have paved a full 42. 195 kilometers will meet in the sports meeting, and they will not complain because the right of way is affected.
Third, runners are very polite. They don't throw rubbish everywhere, don't collide, don't get in the way, and cheer for other runners.
Fourth, the atmosphere of the race is laid-back, and there is no sense of "chill" at all ... but in fact, the standard of runners is very high! Even non-elite runners rarely walk lazily and abandon the race on their own.
In addition, in Japan, it is often seen that runners bow 90 degrees and turn back to the finish line, which represents the gratitude of runners. Japanese runners believe that they could not have achieved this race without the help of God, staff and oilers, and this spirit of "doing your best and being grateful" is hard to become the mainstream of marathon events in other places.
I really think that if you are a runner, or if you have never participated in a marathon, but you are interested in it, you must plan to participate in the Japanese marathon. Japan is a "track and field country", and they support and respect runners very much. When Taiwan TV news didn't report track and field events at all, and people in Taiwan Province province didn't know about our track and field athletes at all ... the whole Japanese family watched the relay race of "Biography of Lee (Yi) in Hakone Town" in front of the TV.
For people who like running, running in Japan is extremely happy. In addition to the suitable climate, there is also the support of social atmosphere. No one's first horse is not hard, but I am grateful that my first horse can be completed in Japan. The temperature is thirteen degrees, the track is flat, and the atmosphere is warm and touching ... All these make my first horse sweet.
In recent years, I have been very enthusiastic about "overseas horses", that is, combining "running" with "swimming". By signing up for the overseas marathon, I can not only get a close look at the local customs and culture, but also give myself a good reason to eat, drink and have fun. I gave myself a title called "Traveler", not only a traveler or runner, but also a life practitioner who travels and runs for the purpose of running.
There are many "runners" in Taiwan Province Province. They have traveled all over the world, and what I am doing now is to join this lifestyle. If you are a marathon runner, you must try to run overseas horses and experience the local conditions and customs completely different from those in Taiwan Province Province. The choice of overseas horses can start from neighboring Japan, and the perfect running country is next door. Why do we need to go far?
