In the vast running circle, all kinds of people and things can appear.
Just as where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and where there are rivers and lakes, there are disputes, and there are some uncivilized behaviors in the running circle.
Originally, in my eyes, running was a simple and pure sport, and I have a lot of respect for those who persevere.
I was inspired by the self-discipline and healthy sunshine they showed.
However, over time, I have come to realize that not all runners possess this excellent quality.
At the 2023 Suzhou Taihu Marathon, a runner caught the spotlight. He was carrying a big bag, which made people curious.
Looking closely, I found that the backpack was stuffed with energy gel, and it was estimated that there were at least dozens of packs.
In front of the photographer's lens, he was fearless, laughing heartily, clearly very satisfied with the supplies he had received, and his heart was overjoyed!
After the game, he even posted his loot quite complacently, accompanied by the caption "Come to stock".
According to netizens, his marathon score is close to 3 hours and 10 minutes, and he has reached the level of an elite runner.
Being able to complete a marathon doesn't mean you're superior, and likewise, it doesn't make you nobler.
We often hear people say that running makes you better. But in fact, this is not necessarily the case.
In fact, on the marathon track, there are often some "buying parties", which often cause heated discussions on the Internet. Despite this, there are still people who commit such acts that are considered shameful.
Is it really worth sacrificing our moral dignity and reverence for the rules of the game for the sake of some traffic?
In the previous marathon, there were also three changes of clothing in order to "pick" brand wool.
Marathons are held frequently, and major brands have launched fierce competition for talent.
In order to attract the best runners, especially those who finish under three hours, they can do everything they can: give away top-of-the-line equipment, offer bonus incentives......
It is under this temptation that many elite players have chosen to join the camp of various brands and wear brand products to compete in the arena.
However, some players deviated from the basic spirit of the contract for their own selfish interests, and even changed their equipment three times in the competition, staging a wonderful dress-up show.
On the 2022 Hangzhou Marathon course, a runner showed a unique dressing technique, he changed his equipment 3 times in a row during the race, and even changed 2 pairs of running shoes!
The runner wore two sets of equipment during the race, and after the race, he put on Li-Ning equipment and returned to the track to take pictures. In the end, he finished the race with a total of 242 in the race.
According to the photos, the runner appeared on the track wearing the equipment of the three brands of Vigo, Xtep and Li Ning, which amazed many runners!
According to the previous regulations of the relevant brands, as long as you wear the brand's equipment to complete the Hangzhou Marathon Marathon, you can get the brand's top-of-the-line equipment for free, including racing shoes and full-body racing clothing.
The runner changed clothes three times in a row during the race, apparently to get free gear from three brands.
This kind of behavior makes other players feel unfair and disgusted, and it is not in line with the original intention of the brand's regulations.
What's even more astonishing is that the great god shared his experience on social platforms in a high-profile manner after the Hangzhou Marathon.
He even asked self-deprecatingly: Is it easy to get wool? It took three changes of equipment to run 242!
Originally, this kind of thing was not very glorious, but I didn't expect him to be proud instead of ashamed.
The final finish time of 2 hours and 42 minutes was an elite time among the mass runners. However, his behavior has caused controversy, with many runners believing that it lacks the spirit of contract and is not widely accepted.
Runners who abandon self-restraint are undoubtedly creating a process of self-destruction, which can negatively affect others, and even the race.
Running begins with a single step and ends with self-discipline. Running requires not only down-to-earth, but also inner self-discipline. Galloping on the road of running, we should take self-discipline as a horse to help our running career.
Every competition is a test for oneself and a challenge to one's inner moral bottom line. The real victory always comes from inner strength and perseverance, not from greedy for vain small gains.
