Sports life-my horse rides by itself

20 13 years, work is not too busy, and life is not too fettered. I fell madly in love with cycling in my spare time. Anyone who has been riding for a long time knows that horses ride by themselves. As the name implies, riding a horse is a marathon. The distance of ten marathons takes 24 hours to complete. This is a folk and mass activity, and many people in cycling circles regard challenging riding as the ultimate pursuit of riding. Just like Teacher Ye said, "Love doesn't persist", in order to challenge success, it is just like running, from 40 km to 50 km to 100, 200 km at a time. For the realization of this hobby, I spent almost two years preparing. Even if it is 20 15, I will regularly ride my bike all day on weekends, and gradually it will take about 250 kilometers to walk in more than ten hours.

When I rode non-stop for more than 200 kilometers, and I was able to keep up all the way, even keeping pace with those strong men, I felt that I had the strength to challenge the horse to ride by myself. On my birthday in September, 20 15, I set out from Jixi, Anhui Province and started a 24-hour 420-kilometer challenge. You can sum up the results of daily training with one point of hard work and one point of harvest, or say that heaven rewards diligence. Soon after Jixi set out, it arrived at the famous Jingzhou Highway in southern Anhui. On the slope of Highway 20, the altitude rises from 100 meters to 1300 meters, so many people who are used to riding flat roads can't adapt to such road conditions. Being in the mountainous area of southern Anhui, coupled with the usual training, my advantages soon emerged. I have been a superman since I climbed the mountain. Every time there is more than one person, I count one. If others pass me, I will subtract one. From the bottom to the top of the slope, there are more than 130 people. Many people gave me thumbs up along the way. The collected praises not only made me more excited, but also made me gradually lose my objectivity and calmness. I stopped riding at my own pace, exerted my strength for a long time, and blindly rubbed the train (one person led the ride, many people rode in a single row, just like a train). The speed was above 30+ all the time, and then I fell down in two corners because of too fast speed. Even so, I haven't learned my lesson. After getting off Jingzhou Highway and crossing Haining, I left Hangzhou City. It was already evening when I went to Shanghai, and I was still riding on the expressway. I still haven't put safety first. Finally, I had a hard time on Highway 240. Because I was too close to the car, I didn't pay attention to the sidewalk guardrail and fell heavily from the car. I was badly injured and couldn't go on. I don't want to give up the challenge this year. After that, I made a profound summary of this experience. When you face or finish something, even if you don't need too much technical content or profound requirements, once you lose your composure and reason, you will eventually stumble and miss success. What a painful understanding it is for me!

The failure of this challenge hit me hard. For a long time, I was immersed in self-blame and regret that I failed to complete. However, my indomitable spirit failed to make me give up this dream. The hobby of riding is declining, and the riding enthusiasm of the small town is also cooling down. I still keep cycling intermittently. At that time, speed was no longer my goal, but after slowing down, I liked every riding process. Before, because the scenery was rarely quiet, I could leisurely collect every quiet scenery when I was on the winding mountain with 18 bends in the mountain road. You can collect those unnecessary photos and sketches with your mobile phone. On September 16 and 10, I once again stood at Shanghai Fengjing, the starting point of 430 km riding in Shexian County, Huangshan Mountain. My state of mind may have changed. 430 km is no longer a daunting journey, which makes people think. Eat and drink all the way, enjoy riding and catching up with each other, and feel all kinds of customs along the way, especially at Prince Point. People who can't see before and after riding are inevitably anxious about whether they are going the wrong way. A giant security car in Nanjing followed me slowly until I assembled with the big troops. Among the selfless dedication of many volunteers, it finally took 22 hours and 32 minutes, ranking more than 400 in total, completing the first and perhaps the only riding challenge in my life.

? After learning about my experience, my friends around me questioned why I rode so badly. What did you get? Sometimes I wonder what I get. In many things, my spirit of deliberately exercising and keeping challenging has been well rewarded. Our company's products are forced by the market, and the company faces many difficulties in production, quality, cost and marketing. In order to get rid of the predicament, everyone in the company has devoted themselves to their work. The unprecedented pressure will soon make some people unbearable, and every time the pressure is unbearable, the journey of riding a horse is vivid. Just stick to it! This has solved many difficulties and pressures. Another is my persistence and tenacity in sports, which inadvertently set a good example for my daughter. Many mothers will experience twists and turns and disharmony when their children grow up, and my children have always admired me because I have been teaching her with practical actions, and she will follow my example and face everything in life. Every time I come back from cycling or running, I will send her some track and sports maps, and I can always get her sincere praise. What's more gratifying is that under my influence, she unconsciously fell in love with sports. What's more commendable is that, driven by the sports charm of my whole family, my whole family is infected by the sports atmosphere. Sun sports track, asking each other where to go, what activities to sign up for, etc., are common topics in our family. Needless to say, the health bonus brought by exercise is something we are all enjoying.
