You Can Win in Long-distance Running
Two or three years ago, I went to Boston. I came into Hopkinton and saw what the village was like. I want to what the village is like when there is nobody. Hopkinton is very peaceful. There is a plaza in this village which is full of trees and grass. It is also quiet. It is actually a common place in this world. We can see a house and it is built by fish-scale watts. It also has a unharmonious corn. A church can be seen here. There are one golden sign and one pointed tower in this church. The yellow metal on the top has become green. It is not different with other places. But there is a huge difference. We can see two white lines on the street of this village. They are very thick. In fact, best runners run in these two thick lines. Sometimes women can run along the two lines. To my surprise, six people stand near the two lines. They are runners, and they come here to show their respect to Marathon. Finally, runners come to Boston and they all feel anxious. All things are ready and we can not do more exercises.
In addition, before the Marathon game, runners can not sleep well and have many dreams. They often wake very early. I know a runner who takes part in the race. He lives with his friend before the race. Before the game, he can not sleep well and wake up at three. When he wakes up, his friend is doing exercises. His friend does like that to alleviate his anxiety and uneasiness. I also know a participator who is very special and anxious. In 1076's Marathon game, he performed in a wrong way. He went to Boston Plaza in the early morning. when the sun rose, he ran for 6 miles. At last, we can see the whole sun. At this time, people can find delicious blintzes in the restaurants in Boston. The food is for those runners who take part in Marathon game. At 8:30, all the runners go to Hopkinton. They must accept the physical examination in Hopkinton. This exam is the most careless in the world. So in 1976, this exam was cancelled. It is very useless. In the process of Marathon game, runners have to check in when they come to secondary school's gymnasium. Runners get one number and four brooches. The gym is very noisy and it is full of the smell of terebinthine oil. In peacetime, they often have physical training with their scruffy clothes. However, if they take part in Marathon game, they will wear the best bib and tucker. They often wear their short trousers and beautiful hair bands. They also wear their new nylon sport suit on which we can see the name of the club. Many press photographers are waiting for the beginning of the game. They have their own cars there. Certainly you can find many cameras there. We can see a lot of outstanding sportsmen nearby the starting line. There are also many common players. Some informal participators also run with others. Certainly some people like running slowly and then run after those competitors. In conclusion, we should feel the pleasure that Marathon brings to us.
