On November 26, 2023, the annual marathon came to an end, as one of the 11 in the world and the only two highest-level platinum label marathon events in China, it takes a lot of luck to win the lottery.
This is my 7th time participating in the marathon, since 2014 to start running, now is my 10th year of running, looking back, the total running distance of more than 12,000 kilometers, successively run more than 20 full marathons and countless half marathons - estimated more than 150, worn running shoes also have more than a dozen pairs, I have measured from Shanghai to Qingdao, from Beijing to Tokyo, from California to Berlin, from Singapore to Bangkok in many places, the running marathon results have also from 4 hours to 3 hours and 5 minutes.
During the epidemic in 2020, I wrote a detailed sharing after the race: a 42195 km date: my 2020 Shanghai Marathon record (click the link to read), a small goal set for myself this year: run into 3 hours, this year's training is more systematic, the preparation is good, but the starting area is back to exceed the team of 20,000 people, although the second half of the effort to catch up, plus a little cold before, the 35 km time has not been able to enter the third decisive slowdown, did not reach the goal, but the personal PB increased by more than 4 points, to meet expectations.
Some friends will wonder why running has such a great charm, so that tens of thousands of people get up at 4 o'clock in the morning to run more than 40 kilometers, rain or shine, in fact, the reason behind it is not complicated.
One of the secrets of Buffett's success is compound interest, which is long-termism. Another secret to success is delayed gratification, with the famous "Marshmallow Experiment" proving that children with delayed gratification tend to achieve more.
Whereas, running is typical of delayed gratification and long-termism.
The benefits that running can bring are often reflected after a long period of time, such as a well-proportioned body, a healthy body, a tenacious character, and an optimistic attitude.
Running is as simple as having a pair of running shoes and opening your legs.
It is said that running is addictive. There are countless reasons to start running, whether it's a hobby, or making friends, as long as you run, you can experience the fun of running.
Running is not simple, in the later stage, we should also pay attention to running form, nutrition, training intensity, avoid injury, do strength and core training, pay attention to heart rate, pay attention to the training plan: from easy running, aerobic running, mixed oxygen running to interval running, etc., so that you can run without injury and run better.
The famous writer and veteran runner Haruki Murakami wrote "What I Talk About When I Talk About Running" (click the link to read), and the whole book writes about the runner's heart. 
Running is a spiritual practice, and legend has it that there is a school of Zen Buddhism that uses running to experience the emptiness and impermanence of life.
A gentleman is cautious and alone, running is solitude, learning how to Xi to face himself, listening to himself outside the hustle and bustle, talking to himself, and whether he can endure loneliness is also a sign of a person's inner strength.
Running gains things other than running, such as how to learn to face setbacks and failures, such as friendship, such as a sense of achievement, such as giving will be rewarded, such as achieving a better self.
Running also allows us to experience the beauty and impermanence of life, through running to meet a lot of friends who also love running, everyone from all walks of life, the hobby of running brings everyone together. I have also met people who have unfortunately passed away due to heart problems, leaving behind heartbroken family members. Running is simple, with just a pair of running shoes and a love of life and life, you can run. Who am I, I come from, I go to?These are the ultimate three questions in front of everyone, some people choose to avoid and choose to lie flat, while some people pursue the answer for life. When running becomes a Xi, a way of life, running also becomes a practice, becomes a pursuit, the pursuit of a better life, even if one day can not run due to physical reasons, but the pursuit of the spirit is still there. 
I once met a friend who was a runner who could no longer run because of a bone spur that cut the ankle fascia, but optimistically, he started swimming and hiking, and volunteered for runners every year.
The Buddha said that life is like a dream bubble, like dew and electricity, life is just a few decades of time in a flash, this world is very big and very small, how we spend this limited time, is a problem that everyone must face.
Running has become a part of my life, accompanying me to experience the wonders of the world, to see the flowers of spring, the rain of summer, the wind of autumn, the snow of winter, to measure the north and south, the south and the north pole of the world, to the earth and the sky, to the truth of the world and the heart, to feel friendship and family, to take responsibility, to strive to realize the glory and dreams of life.
