18 In early March, I made up my mind to start running. The first thing I did was to buy back Mr. Murakami's book "What do I talk about running?"
Yes, this is the second time I have read this book.
When I read this book carefully word by word, fun run's physical habits were also formed.
I have loved reading Mr. Murakami's novels since I was a child.
I remember it was the first year of high school. When I went to the bookstore, I came across a book about running written by him. At that time, I just liked this book in the village and bought it without saying anything.
I took it home and put it on the shelf, but I didn't open it right away. Later, one day during the summer vacation, I had nothing to do, so I rummaged through the shelves and took it out.
At the moment you opened this book, were you attracted by this illustration from the beginning like me?
I'm not afraid of jokes. When I first read this book, I first turned over all the illustrations in it!
That perfect muscle line has fascinated me so far!
When I read the pictures of the whole book, I even shut myself in my room, not eating or drinking. After reading the book in one breath, I folded many corners.
Since then, running has taken root in my heart.
I told myself: Why not try to run? There's no harm in it anyway.
Think about it, there are many fat people, and there are many successful examples of losing weight through running.
If you want to do something, do it when you think about it.
Try to set out and run ahead and watch.
No struggle, no anxiety. Just running with your head buried, you may see different scenery along the way.
Walking out of the university campus and stepping into the society, as a newcomer in the workplace, it is inevitable to be nervous. At this time, I need to do something that can calm my heart: I chose running.
There is a simple reason.
First, I like running since high school, but I have never done well; This time, I want to challenge myself to see if I can persist.
Second, running can temper a person's extraordinary perseverance, running round and round, when perseverance and spirit are together; You can strive for outstanding endurance while competing for your extraordinary physical strength. Every time you are soaked in clothes and sweat, it is the best testimony of your inner desire to catch up.
So, I took Mr. Murakami's book and began to improve myself on the road of running.
I put this book by my pillow. Every time, whenever I have the idea of not running, I open the last paragraph and then go out to run.
As long as I look at the "magic" photos in the book, I will be motivated. This book is my spiritual desire for running.
In recent years, the wave of national movement has swept across the country. At one time, gyms were everywhere.
Most people are keen on getting New Year cards, but they always give up halfway. They can't go a few times a year. Finally, I went to the salted fish network to discount or even sell the cards at the beginning of the year at half price, and I was trapped in self-blame and self-blame for a long time.
What a painful understanding!
But there are still so many people who "repeat the same mistakes" and even enjoy it, and the number of gyms is increasing.
When it comes to persistence, each of us has something in our hearts.
To what extent can you do one thing? Your heart is like a mirror, you don't need others to say more.
Li Xiaolai mentioned this concept in "Taking Time as a Friend": Anything you need to persevere will probably not last long. You need to "do one thing and love one thing" and insist on doing something that interests you.
Running is actually the same. When you enter the persistent stage, please cultivate your interest in running.
Because it is a mechanical movement, the process is boring, but you can look for "excitement".
After more than 100 days, I can look up a little and tell myself with a smile that I have developed the physical habit of running.
I am confident that I can be loyal to my habits and my heart, and make continuous progress on the road of running.
Mr. Wang was 56 years old when he wrote this book. The book records what he saw and felt when he ran. Although reading is scattered, Mr. Wang's unpretentious words have touched me again and again.
In the book, he said that he was a runner who persisted for 27 years.
He started running at the age of 33 and has persisted almost every day to this day.
I have to run the whole horse once a year and have participated in more than 20 marathons so far.
When his physical strength became better and better, he simply made up his mind to take part in the triathlon, and they all finished well.
In the book, he described his feelings after running a complete horse like this: "I finally sat on the ground, wiped my sweat with a towel and drank water to my heart's content." Untie the shoelaces of running shoes and do ankle stretching exercise carefully in the busy twilight around ... this is a person's happiness. The seemingly solid knot in the body is being untied little by little. "
Although I am a runner, I have had this feeling.
It is a kind of self-satisfaction from the inside out, which can give people long-term strength.
You will find yourself making progress every day and breaking through yourself every time.
Your psychological strength will be enhanced bit by bit, which will give you the courage and confidence to keep running forward.
Mr. Wang said: Running is like life, not because of the end, but because of the process.
Because of his patience and persistence in these 27 years, he has made writing and running have his own philosophy.
He said that the two are inseparable, and writing is running.
Writing, he wants to write word for word; Running, he wants to run step by step.
No matter in words or on the real marathon track, Mr. Wang has done his best.
How many people can withstand 27 long years?
Mr. Wang said, "As long as I run, I feel happy. Running, among the many habits I have developed in my life so far, is probably the most beneficial one and of great significance. "
He said this in the book:
Because I have been running for more than 20 years, my body and spirit have been developing in a good direction.
I am deeply touched by this.
Socrates once said that an unexamined life is not worth living.
I once asked myself in the dead of night: What have you been doing with your life so far?
When the day of my life finally came, how much time and energy did I devote to my health?
If one day I lie in bed and recall the past, will I regret my laziness again and again!
So, I already have the answer in my heart: I want to improve myself on the road of running and be responsible for my skin to the end.
In this way, on the same runway, I have been repeating simple mechanical actions.
Although this exercise mode sometimes feels boring, as long as you find the fun, you will find something that will really benefit you for life.
Until today, I finally have a little confidence in myself. I am thinking about the truth of life while running diligently.
For me, in order to find what Mr. Murakami called "happiness", I also explored a set of my own methods.
That is: continue to have fun for yourself!
Let yourself love running!
First of all, pay attention to your clothes when running.
Because of the different colors of sportswear and hats, you can keep your daily running fresh;
Secondly, you can use different music to keep high spirits when running.
Third, the running time can be adjusted at any time.
I can choose to run in the morning or at night; You can also run for half an hour, do stretching, and then continue running; You can also run 10 km in one breath and stretch for half an hour.
Finally, keep the amount of exercise, and don't deliberately pursue the amount and speed of running.
Every time I run, I follow my heart and do what I can. I am very happy and confident when I can finish proper exercise every day.
I never care what others say about running. I always believe what I stand for.
Not because I expect running to live a long life, but because I can get along with my "other self".
Running has a magic power, that is, it can make your life burn, even if it is only a little bit.
You will really find that you are really alive every day.
You can feel your heartbeat and blood boiling anytime and anywhere.
Perseverance, perseverance, patience, I hope such things will condense in my heart;
And the strength of struggle and the belief of struggle gradually light up at the finish line where they run every day.
In this process, it will be accompanied by pain. However, it is precisely because of the pain, and it is precisely because I have experienced all the pain in this process that I understand the wonderful feeling of "living in the present".
You will find that things like speed and amount of exercise are not important, but things that can flow in daily running behavior.
