On October 28, 2018, the Suzhou International Women's Half Marathon (Queen Run Run in Suzhou Station) was successfully completed with the result of 2:01:07.
        On November 25, 2018, the Shaoxing International Marathon (half-way) was successfully completed with the result of 1:54:56.
        Running two " Marathon ", personal experience is before running, you must let the taste bud comfortable ,let the visual enjoyment and let the ears full.
So, let's start with some tidbits.
 
  
      Suzhou is a soft and waxy city. " the crab roe is fat when Autumn wind rises", the mind of the hairy crab has long been coveted, how can we miss Yangcheng Lake hairy crab as a national geographical indication product when come to Suzhou? Watching hairy crabs with fat body and white stomach, other delicacies faded. Let's  feasted on the crab and also "run rampant" on the track.

      Suzhou Pintan is comparable to the hairy crabs, Coming Out of Shantang Old Street, soft voice accompanied by three-stringed Pipa came into my ears, followed the sound of melodious silk string and the beautiful euphemistic singing tone upstairs, coincided with a group of over 70 years old "old commentator" self-entertainment weekly meeting, they learned that we came to Suzhou to run Marathon, "old commentator" played and sang for entertainment, although we had different hobbies, ages, but we chat very happily. 
 
   
    与苏州不同,绍兴号称没有围墙的博物馆,是一本漂在水上的书,素有东方威尼斯之称。因有桥、因桥有景,沿着石桥拾级而上,看着篷船由远及近悠然,水面漾起浅浅波纹俨然一幅江南水乡的水墨画卷。但如此美景,跑马时感受却是想说爱你不容易容后来。
    言归正传,入跑马模式。
      Unlike Suzhou, Shaoxing is known as a museum without walls. It is a Book floating on the water, known as "Oriental Venice". Because the water has bridge, the bridge has view, along the Stone bridge, watching the Wupeng boat from far and near leisurely driving, shallow ripples ripple on the surface of the water, like a painting scroll of water and ink in the south of the Yangtze River. But in this beautiful scenery, the feeling of marathon is "it's not easy to say love you." Let's talk about it later.
      Lets cut into the marathon mode.
 
 
      "Every healthy, sunny, positive woman is the unique queen" - this is the beautiful declaration of Queen Run. Since signing up for the Queen Run, October 28, 2018 has become a promising day. After all, it's my first half marathon. Although I have been running intermittently for more than two years, although I have been guided by running gods during this period, I can't help feeling nervous because I don't have any experience in the race. Come and run!
 
 
 
      Marathon, in addition to the indispensable accumulation of running volume, is equipment. Preparing a set of comfortable and sufficiently "beautiful" clothes is a must-do homework before the race. I wonder if the full sense of ritual can be regarded as a way to express the awe of marathon.
 
 
      I remember one night when I went for a walk on a "temporary idea", I met my runner in the gymnasium with itchy feet and ran 5 kilometers in a hip-wrapped skirt. After that, I got many bad reviews. According to the runners, the sense of ritual is one aspect, the important thing is that the body is easily bound to cause sports injury. Okay, just this once.
       Everything is ready for the shooting. The nine "queens" were then dispersed by the bustling crowd and ran at their own pace. Running has enabled us to develop a way of communicating with ourselves, running alone on the road, but our hearts are rich. We can listen to music, listen to novels, let our thoughts fly freely, listen to our hearts and breaths quietly, and even draw up a draft of legal documents while running.
 
       At this moment, after catching up with 230 rabbits (rabbits, official marathon speeders, a group of people who provide stable pace for competitors and help them achieve their goals within the scheduled time), 230 rabbits, the speeders who complete the half marathon in 2 hours and 30 minutes), no more 200 rabbits can be seen. It's time to finish running. Because the weather was too hot and sunny, there was a temporary feeling of dizziness 13 kilometers away. One voice seemed to say, "Don't hold up, stop walking." The other voice was a strong counterattack, "Never stop, you must go." Adjust breathing and heart rate and move on. But at 19 kilometers, the fatigue of the body comes again, giving up and persistence is like a game between the devil and the angel in the brain: "Why do you really follow yourself? Good or bad results do not mean anything, you can finish the race smoothly when you get there", "Can't give up, you are a runner, 21.0975 kilometers ahead"... Repeated battles, when the end arch appeared in front of my eyes, my angel burst into a sweet smile in my heart, the first half marathon of my life, completed smoothly at 2:01:07.
 
 
   In the envy and jealousy of runners who have no marathon to run and their hearts are empty, on December 25, 2018, we embarked on the journey of measuring the ancient city of Shaoxing with footsteps and sweat. Although had no ambition to surpass herself at one time after came back from the Queen race, but a red heart made two preparations with the encouragement of everyone: finish the race smoothly if not in good condition; to brush a PB (Personal Best)if in good condition , our head -the old fish, will bend as my private rabbit (relative to the official rabbit's personal speed coordinator).
 
 
   
      Maybe it's sunny weather that makes the body feel comfortable, maybe it's the queen running before that makes the body have memory, maybe it's the core strength training of recent period that has shown initial effect, maybe it's the spiritual hint of the private rabbit that it feels good from the beginning, and with the experience of competing, it can shuttle freely among many runners, and the pace is far beyond the intended target, and catch up with 200 rabbits at 3.8 kilometers. So, as long as it is not overtaken, break 2 is appropriate. It is said that as many as 88 bridges, big and small, pass through the track, which may not be undulating, but there is no noticeable climb - up to 16 kilometers. It's a bridge that makes my heart rate soar, because the slope rises sharply, the balance is broken, even after the downhill, it's hard to reach the first half of the state. Old Fish encouraged me on the side, because his drive, the next few kilometers can basically stabilize the predetermined pace. Crossing the finish line, the official score was 1:54:56, exceeding the standard to complete the race.
      At the end of the race, the souvenirs waiting for us were Shaoxing rice wine and fennel beans with strong local characteristics (I can't help recalling that Kong Yiji said in the book that the word "fennel beans" has several lines of writing), while Shengzhou snacks and hot musty dried vegetable soup are enough to wipe out our fatigue.
      Conquered the thousand-year-old City and laughs at the sky and never regrets the abuse of small bridges and streams!
 
     From admiring other people's marathon racing, to two marathons  I have to thank our runner group“I run runner group”. Because of the same hobbies and three concepts of harmony, we are bound to get together. The original intention of our running is no matter the length, speed, but the  attitude! But because of the mutual encouragement, we have made great achievements. Many runners have even completed half-marathon and all-marathon races from poor runners in their school days. The strength of perseverance is so amazing. Cultivating positive energy exercise into a habit and promoting it into a hobby will surely make you a tough and self-disciplined person. I believe that in a few years, your body will thank you for every drop of sweat you shed during your running.
 
     As a senior runner, Japanese writer Haruki Murakami said, "No matter how old you are, as long as you are alive, you will have new discoveries about yourself." No wonder some people say that the biggest challenge of Marathon comes from the brain, not the body.
     Because persistence, so beautiful; because persistence, so respectable.
     Next goal, complete a all-marathon. Come on.
