Life is like a marathon.

Yesterday, April 265438+2 1, 2065438, I ran the first half marathon (2 1.0975km) safely, which was a memorable day.

When I ran across the finish line, I was unexpectedly not excited, but more felt that being prepared did not mean that I could play well.

Maybe this distance is nothing for an intense runner, but it is another time for practice rather than competition.

However, for a fat man, to stand at the starting line, he has to pay more sweat than others.

Although there has been targeted training before the game, the final performance is still not good enough.

Before the game, I saw an official article by Zhihu Jiaming, "Do you know? The logic of training and competition is actually opposite. In this article, Mr. G mentioned several key issues:

All these problems have been encountered.

From Area C, it took almost 5 minutes to walk to the starting point, but it began to run slowly when it was approaching 1 km. People are crowded, and the speed can't be raised, and my heart will be a little anxious. In addition, if you don't warm up well before the game, you are more likely to panic.

Then when the weather is too clear, the sun has already come out before it reaches 5 kilometers, and the temperature continues to rise. I have a hunch that the general expectation is about to be broken. Sure enough, the heart rate interval continues to soar, and the amount of sweating is far higher than usual. The first 65,438+00 kilometers are extremely uncomfortable, and people will gather in the shade, causing more congestion, slowing down and starting to run more and more tired.

Then, there were more uphill and downhill than expected. Usually, less training on uphill and downhill will further undermine confidence and further confuse the rhythm. Fortunately, because of the soaring heart rate, it can only be slowed down by actively controlling breathing.

When I participated in 10 km last year, I always felt that refueling had little effect. But halfway through this year, I found that refueling will become another burden, especially when the weather is bad and the rhythm is disrupted. I want to give up the game as soon as I hear the refueling sound.

Finally, replenishment. I didn't really finish a race, but I really don't know how to supplement it. When we arrived at the supply station, it was a crowded crowd. If I want to replenish water, I have to stop, further affecting the rhythm.

Results/kloc-appeared after 0/0 km, running more and more times, the heart rate couldn't get up, the speed was slower and people were more tired. According to the usual training, it should be until 17 ~ 18 km that such a feeling of hitting the wall will appear, but the real game will be directly advanced to 13 km.

Although there is expectation in my heart, it seems that there is a solution (mind), but when it is time to play, I am dumb.

It just confirms a sentence: thinking and doing are completely different.

Marathon will directly and unceremoniously call all the functions of people, but as long as it is not carefully trained at ordinary times, it will be exposed during the competition.

Usually, decentralized training does not mean final integration, because integration ability itself needs training and strengthening.

Through this competition, some problems were exposed, such as insufficient training of core strength and muscle strength, lack of full-kilometer rhythmic running practice before the competition, insufficient heat resistance and replenishment strategy.

Haruki Murakami said that in the long-distance running, if there is any opponent that must be defeated, it is the past self.

Every seemingly easy breakthrough is followed by countless painful efforts.

Life is like a marathon, which will experience countless pains and joys, failures and successes, and become a journey from the starting point to the end.

In the second half of the year, it is said that we can only draw lots by luck, but the training will begin again.

Winter training ends and summer training begins.

Are you ready to continue practicing?

Let's cheer together.

Keep practicing, starting with one micro-motion every day.
