嗯 ~~~ 好久好久沒有參加真的會讓全身在山野裡盡情呼吸的越野路跑了 !

還記得 ... 嗯 ... 三年前 !

沒錯

竟然是三年前

在快要暑假的時候

我也曾經單槍匹馬就跑去參加了也是 Salomon 在茶鄉坪林舉辦的越野路跑

那個時候參加了九公里的組別

雖然也是頗好玩

但卻也總是念念不忘沒有報到名的十五公里組

... 聽說非常的刺激好玩呀 !!!

於是這一次終於 !!!

雖然飲恨沒有辦法去參加小霞堂姐在南投籌劃已久的浪漫庭園婚禮

九月六日的凌晨

還是準備了慣例的營養早餐

來到了台北車站等待接駁車的到來 ~~~ !

噗噗噗 ~

一個瞬間的概念 (其實是真的有點睡不好太累所以昏死過去哈哈)

會場就到了

是個非常米你卻溫馨的山中小學呢 !

天色仍然昏暗

距離寄物開始還有一段時間

於是打起精神就開始了今天的整裝 ~ !

今天不一樣 ! 今天不一樣 ! 今天不一樣 !

哈哈

為了今天

其實我真的期待已久

原因就是 ......

耗費重金打造 ! 新購入，閃亮亮的NIKE運動型太陽眼鏡 !!!

再加上兩個月的努力練習 ......

我已經在腦海裡排演過好幾次的帥氣跑姿

要在瀟灑得名之後衝線完賽 ! 哈哈

但

我馬上就會了解

... 案請絕對不會如此單純 (如下圖所示)

在慣例的健康活力熱身操之後 ...... (還是第一次這麼認真地跟著從頭到尾跳一次)

出發了 !

健康有力的大腿肌

帥氣艷黃太陽眼鏡

紅黃藍亮眼配色

微熱朝陽搭配清新空氣

一切看起來是如此地充滿希望 ... !

迎面而來

所有選手都即將進入第一道關卡

... 呃

我有看錯嗎!？

1032階!？

就如同一卡車的冷水倒灌頭頂一般

哈哈

這還真的沒想到

前兩公里就是我最害怕的無止盡階梯挑戰 ...

但既然都敢報名了

如果跑步回去豈不是太丟臉 !

把心一橫 ~

上了 !

於是精神抖擻的

一階

跟著一階

賣力地

登頂 !

這裡的賣力地

完全不浮誇

哈哈

我真的體認到了越野路跑為何會如此耐人尋味

也真的開始敬佩那些健步如飛穩健向前的前段班選手 ......

加油 !!! 蘇子淵 !!! 你也可以的 !!!!!

說是這樣說

接下來的挑戰可不是太輕鬆...

我覺得 ...

人生中

從來沒有一次覺得人類的行動可以這麼地

如此地

接近一隻猴子 !!!

攀藤 !

跳石頭 !

劃過重重雜草 !

在淙淙山裡小溪步步為營 !

絕對不能滑倒 !

啊 !

又是極限階梯 !

唔 !

前方又有極限傾斜角度即將席捲而來 !

...... 如此一般一般

我已經好久好久沒有如此佩服自己了

在終點線的蹤影出現在近在咫尺的範圍內時

不誇張

眼淚差點就奪眶而出

但

想當然地

並不是即將充滿餘裕地帥氣奪取名次的喜極而泣 ......

上帝大倫 ! 佛祖哥哥 ! 感謝您們讓我活著回來 !!!

也謝謝賽後沁人心脾的仙草冰 ~~~ !

It's been quite long,

since the last time I was participating in a trail run also held by Salomon !

Last time was only a 9 KM trial for me,

3 years ago,

Yet I still could recall that I felt a little pity not attending in the 15 KM category,

I heard in a news that challenging courses are bountifully included,

so I'm back this year,

with my newly-acquired Nike Sunglasses !

Even though it's also quite a pity not going to Nantou with my family to join the feast of my cousin ... it's her big wedding day, in a fashion just as she's been dreamed long ... a ceremony in a romantic garden !

I still came to the Taipei Train station again in the dawn, waiting to hop on the linking bus.

After arriving the location where the event would be held and changing my hardware on,

the race started.

In the very beginning, it was all about optimism on the starting miles.

Soothing sunlit shed on the path ahead plus the refreshing air ...

Well-conditioned muscles of thighs ...

Shiny colors of my new sunglasses and clothes ...

And within my mind it was a perfect combination hovering in my head, I was already thinking the possible winning pose when it's time to flash through the finishing line at the goal

Yet soon I became genuinely realized that it wouldn't be a easy task this time.

The first challenge were 1032 wood stairs in the starting 2 kilometers ...

then I started to think that I was nearly becoming truly a monkey further ...

Hopping stones after stones through the streams in the mountain ...

Grabbing vines to get on the stones way up high ...

Moving aside heavenly tall grasses to go forward ...

All of a sudden I soon forgot the notion winning the prize and respects were paid to the first-class competitors, you dudes are unbelievable !

and so on ...

as the theme of goal becoming within reach,

my eyes were swollen with tears,

not the one imagined before with prizes holding in my hand,

but only a sense of accomplishment.
