In the park in the early morning, in the playground in the evening, a group of runners can always be seen. They are fast or slow, alone or in groups, and each face is full of sweat and satisfaction. Running, a simple sport, carries a different meaning and purpose.
Some people run or run horses purely for that joy and sense of participation. They enjoy the freshness of the wind blowing across their faces and love to sweat while listening to ** or chatting with friends. For them, running is a relaxation and an spice in their busy lives.
Some people run or run horses to enjoy the process and the sense of accomplishment that comes with perseverance. Step by step, they measured the ground under their feet, experiencing the coordination of every breath and step. For them, running is a kind of spiritual practice, a challenge and transcendence of the self.
There are also people who run or run horses, purely for health. They do as they please, rest when they are tired, and continue to run when they are not tired. For them, running has no set plan and goal, just a way to keep their body active.
However, there are always those who run in pursuit of better results. They care about their PB (personal best), heart rate, pace and position. For them, running is a kind of competition, and it is the continuous excavation and improvement of their own ability.
But whatever the purpose of running, it should not be questioned or disparaged. Because the original intention of real running is to be healthy. The other results and rankings are all add-ons brought by running, and they are floating clouds. As long as we can keep running for a day, then the results don't matter, so what's the matter if we don't have results?
The taste of 2024 is getting stronger But ask about running, not about results. Let's let go of our obsession with performance and enjoy the sheer fun and health benefits of running. As long as we can step forward and get on the runway, we are already winners.
