My Jogging Diary

I started my running career again in late January 2025 (restarting after more than two years)! In addition to setting a small goal of 10km marathon for myself, I also took care of my health!

When I was in Germany for exchange and studying for a master's degree in Australia, I just wanted to try running in different environments. I didn't think too much about setting running goals. But when I returned to Brisbane from Taiwan after graduation, I didn't know why, I wanted to restart running and set a future running goal, so this is a brief mental journey before restarting running. I think restarting running and signing up for a 10km marathon makes running more meaningful. In addition to pursuing internal and external health, I also have a new challenge and look forward to completing a small milestone related to sports (after all, marathon is the highest hall for runners for me)!

For more than four months, I maintained the habit of running once or twice a week (starting from 3km and adjusting to 10km irregularly), and in the process I kept discovering some problems with my running, and because of this, I naturally brainstormed and tried some methods (some were improved after trying once, and some were solved after trying several times). What's cool is that even after I exercise, I can have this kind of self-dialogue and find out the problem and the appropriate solution (which is surprisingly similar to my usual content creation). I think this is why I like creativity (it's incredible that I can be creative even when I'm not creating content)! Sorry for going off topic ~ The following journey proves that I can do it and bring it into my daily life (body, content creation, creative brainstorming [finally, the results prove that I solved it, I improved, and I did it])

<<Running Diary Journey>>

Setting running goals --> Running (run run run exercise is good for the body), self-examination and improvement after running, handwritten sharing of my running diary --> Event day (improved by about half a minute compared to the best record during normal practice, awesome!!!!!!) --> Writing this complete journey on Webnode and sharing it with you (I will write a more concise version on vocus)

The first marathon was actually quite nervous, and it was a rather unfamiliar event for me, but it is a very important event for runners. During this period, I didn't think about many details of the marathon (I only spent a little time preparing for some pre-work and familiarizing myself with the route), and I mainly focused on the fluency of running and the state of my body. I'm not sure whether more than four months is long or short for preparing for a 10km marathon, but I still did it! However, I know that it will take a longer time to prepare for a half marathon or a full marathon, so while writing this article, I also started my next journey (I gave myself more time to run, and only focused on recording the more important points and sharing them with myself and everyone) ~ I hope I can complete it well, don't give up, give myself more encouragement when I want to give up, and reduce the pressure of some goals I set for myself in the middle of the journey. I believe there will be brilliant results, come on!
