These three running books have always inspired me to keep running for a long time.

These are three famous sayings carved on the rock of Elados in ancient Greece more than 2,500 years ago, reminding people of the significance of sports.

There are three books that make me completely fall in love with running:

I fell in love with running more than a year ago.

Haruki Murakami is one of my favorite writers, but I am ashamed to say that what I like best is actually a book about running written by him: What I Talk about Running.

It can be said that without Mr. Murakami's book, I probably wouldn't have started running. It is said that many people were poisoned by this book and then fell in love with running.

1978, 28-year-old Haruki Murakami started writing. 1982, aged 33, started running. He has been running on this road for 35 years.

He runs almost every day, runs a full marathon at least once a year and has participated in numerous long-distance sprints around the world.

From Kauai, Hawaii to Cambridge, Massachusetts, from participating in the triathlon in the Japanese village to stepping on the ancient Greek marathon, he is always running.

Years of running let all kinds of ideas surge out of his heart; I insist on what I see, hear and think about running every day, and when I talk about running, it becomes my talk.

Yes, because:

Many people are studying how many days they should run every week, how long they should run each time, what equipment to buy, what running shoes to wear, when the air is good, which street is flat, and what season is the most comfortable for running.

Actually, these are all details. Just go out and run. As long as you run long enough, you will have perseverance, habits, health, weight loss and good health, which are just by-products of running.

"Willy-nilly, let's start running", so I put on a pair of shoes and started running. ...

100 days have passed, one year has passed, and ten years have passed. When I look back at this sentence, I realize that what I said is too reasonable. Running is a natural specialty, and running equipment is naturally complete.

Thinking too much sometimes affects your actions.

I really have a say in this. I have given up smoking for two years and haven't smoked a cigarette. Two colleagues in my unit have been quitting smoking with me, and only I have persisted.

After quitting smoking, all three of us gained more than 200 kilograms and our appetite increased greatly. Only I insist on running, so my weight is much lighter than before I quit smoking, from 2 10 kg to 170 kg, a total loss of 40 kg.

It is difficult to give up smoking simply by perseverance. Only with a new habit can another old habit be replaced. I have replaced the bad habit of smoking with the good habit of exercising.

So I read this passage from Mr. Murakami and feel the same way.

Running is the simplest exercise, and one person can control everything. Run as long as you want; If you don't want to run, you can stop running.

Everything depends on you.

People who want to run don't care about any external factors, such as wind and rain, cold and heat; People who don't want to run will not run whether there is smog or not.

If you say something inappropriate, even if you smoke a little smog every day, it will be digested by the great benefits brought by running.

So, just run, because the benefits of running are really not one or two. Instead of listening to some lazy people's negative comments, why not find someone who runs every day and see how refreshed he is after running?

Getting into the habit of running is like washing your face and brushing your teeth, eating and sleeping every day, and you don't need to insist. Who needs to eat and sleep every day?

Nowadays, running has become a popular sport. Many people love running and are even fascinated. There is a joke that eating at the wine table will make you embarrassed to speak if you have not run a marathon. But some people think that running is a boring and long thing.

Why do so many people keep running? You can borrow a word from Mr. Murakami:

If I hadn't started running, I would never have found so many songs and exciting sentences in this book.

A book about my running feelings is so wonderful and beautiful that only Mr. Murakami has this charm, right?

No matter whether you want to run or not, I suggest you read this book at least once in your life. You will find that it is not only a running book, but also a book about life thinking and refining.

Every once in a while, I always take it out and read it carefully. Even if I choose to read it, I will find it beneficial to open it.

In "Running Bible: I Run, Therefore I am", Dr. George Shinn told us about his life experience brought by running from middle age, and profoundly told us about all kinds of great physical and mental changes brought by running.

Since the publication of 1978, this book has been on the The New York Times bestseller list for 14 weeks. It is the "philosophical bible" of global runners and the spiritual reading of 5 million Americans.

Dr George Shinn is a doctor. He put on running shoes at the age of 45 and started his running career.

Ran countless marathons. In 1969, he ran 1 mile in 4 minutes and 47 seconds, setting a world record for the 50-year-old group.

From 65438 to 0972, he began to write a column in Runner's World and became the most popular columnist.

As a mentor and thinker in the field of running, George Shinn inspires people and inspires us to follow his teachings. -Former US President Bill Clinton strongly recommended it.

Douban comment: This is a running masterpiece that combines practice and philosophy.

Here, you can see the tenacity of runners; Here, you can feel the runner's mind; Here, you can listen to the spirit of great thinkers and athletes; Here, you can talk to the "thinking" of the body.

Through this book, you may be able to find the answers to "Who are you after all" and "How should you adapt yourself".

The correct way to read this book is that it is not recommended to read it all at once. Whenever you are too lazy to run, just watch a few paragraphs.

Hulbeart Stefani is a famous German long-distance runner and coach. Once 16 times won the German Marathon and other long-distance races, and 1986 times won the European Marathon.

In 2003, Stephanie, who was over 50, took part in the German 10 km race and broke the German record.

At the same time, as an excellent running coach, he has trained many excellent German runners and world champions.

The first two books were written from the ideological and spiritual level, while this book was written from the technical level.

Some readers shared their feelings:

In fact, running is so simple that we can't find a reason to refuse:

Any book is useless after reading it; Anything, without action, will never have a result.

No matter how detailed the map is, it can't lead the owner to move half a step.

Some things will never appear in our lives unless we try.

Influenced by these three books, I used to run for up to 300 days every day, which became one of the most exciting things in my life.

Not everyone has a talent for running, but running is very addictive after a period of time:

First you fall in love with the ease after sweating, then you will fall in love with your gradually tight body, and then you will fall in love with your pure hair. Running brings subtle and intense changes to your body. This change will really offset the intense mental fatigue.

How easy is running? Just go out for a run every day.

But I don't want to go out every day: I'm tired after running; Is it raining outside? Can you catch a cold if you run away? I'm so tired today, why don't you run again tomorrow? There is still a lot of work to be done. Why not do something else first? ……

Before I leave, there are always countless voices of giving up in my mind. I don't respond. I choose to listen to these thoughts quietly, put on running clothes, running shoes, bring my cell phone, headphones, keys and money-go out for a run at once.

Let's do it first. As long as you act, you are half successful.
