No one you could see in front of you and no one you could see behind.
You seem running alone.
Sometimes there was hot sunny dry weather and sometimes there was complete darkness with cold chilling wind.
All you could hear was your own breathing. Ignoring all the pains.
You seem running alone.
Trying to use all my energy to catch up someone in front of me without seeing where he/she was.
When I was so tired, I always think of …Not easy to come to Jordan, many pre-races practice, lucky to get medicine from Raymond and Chris, unforgettable supports from you!
When there is a chance to do something, just want to do it, with full energy, with no regret.
Finally, I’ve finished in good shape. And in fact, I’m not running alone.
Great thanks for all the support from you! Missing you!19 February 2014 02:16 am (GMT+08:00) Beijing, Chongqing, Hong Kong, Urumqi
An over 60s man, my campmate, has problem of legs for a long time. His doctor doesn’t recommend him to run anymore.
For sure he is not even running, but participating an ultra desert marathon with self supported weight. I see how many medicine he brings along!
When people asks why he is still doing this, he said I don’t know when I cannot do so.
Life is too short. Do whatever you want…NOW!
1 wish: my sister gets well soon.
Status report:
1. Today back in good condition. Yeah! Nearly running all the trail (but with snail speed).
2. Nose: 100% good, thanks for all your blessings. Probably I breathe in too many sands J
3. Body: 90% good
4. Spirit: 138% good
5. The worst thing is no excuse for not trying my best in the long match tomorrow for 86km!
Mei Yee, I received your message but all in monster words. I guess you send in chinese. Probably I can only read English here.
Guess Mei Chu is well!
Joe and all, well received your emails and blessings, deeply thanks and they all help me to stay wellJ
