I swung my arms desperately.

I was so tired that I almost collapsed to the ground.

I just run, run and run quietly, feeling the same as my weekly routine.

The sky and the wind, the grass, the audience, the cheers, the reality, the past – all these are excluded from me.

I can only move forward!” the spell went round and round in my mind.

Haruki Murakami excerpted from what I talk about when I talk about running.

At this time, I found that my feet were swollen, so I quickly changed into a pair of half size running shoes and continued on the road.

The whole person seems to be in automatic operation.

During this period, I insisted on participating in a marathon every year, but I only ran once in the 100 kilometer “super marathon”.

In order to keep healthy, I started running.

Close to the last stage of the race, more than 200 people have been left behind.

The book is also loved by runners and readers.

After a while, some players surpassed me one after another.

The journey from 55 kilometers to 75 kilometers became extremely painful.

I decided to write novels for a living in the autumn when I was 33.

My wife can’t get fat no matter how she eats.

every day, wrote for 4 hours and ran 10 kilometers.

Miraculously, I don’t know from which second, the pain all over me suddenly disappeared.

A few years later, I finally entered the ranks of novelists, successfully lost my excess weight and quit smoking.

This experience made me realize that the finish line is just a mark, but it doesn’t make any sense.

I am the kind of physique that is easy to get fat.

I began to surpass others.

What is fair has to be considered in the long run.

This makes me often fall into meditation: “life is really unfair! Some people can get things without being serious, while others need to pay a lot of money.” but on second thought, those who can keep slim without effort will not pay as much attention to food and exercise as I do, and may age faster.

Life is like this: you can stick to what you like, but what you don’t like won’t last long.

That experience was unforgettable for life.

The key is how you run along the way.

At 4:42 p.m., I finally reached the finish line with a score of 11 hours and 42 minutes.

This is the age at which Jesus died.

On June 23, 1996, I signed up for the super marathon held by the Bank of daozulujian Lake in Beihai, Japan, with a total distance of 100 kilometers.

At that time, I was only in my 30s, but I couldn’t be called a “boy”.

When I talk about running, what do I talk about is Murakami Chuncun’s running essay.

So is life.

When it comes to running, someone always admires me: “you are a superman of will!” to be honest, I don’t think running has much to do with will.

There’s nothing to say.

After arriving at the 55km rest station, I changed into clean clothes and ate some snacks prepared by my wife.

At this time, my heart is talking about rushing forward, but my body doesn’t listen.

I got up at 4 a.m.

At 5 o’clock in the morning, I stood on the starting line with pride.

The most worrying thing was that when an old woman in her 70s overtook me, she shouted, “stick to it!” “what can I do? There’s still half way to go, how can I survive?” at this time, I remembered the tips introduced in a book.

At present, marathon has gradually become a social fashion, and running is accepted and loved by more and more people.

The first half of the race is the distance from the starting point to the 55km rest station.

So I began to recite: “I’m not a human being! I’m a machine.

I don’t feel it.

I felt like a piece of beef moving hard in the meat grinder.

I’m afraid I can keep running because this sport meets my requirements: it doesn’t need partners or opponents, nor special equipment and places.

I no longer look at the distance, but only put the target three meters in front.
