Question

【題目】 A month before my first marathon, one of my ankles (踝關節(jié)) was injured and this meant not running for two weeks, leaving me only two weeks to train. Yet, I decided to go ahead.

I remember back to my 7th year in school. In my first P. E. class, the teacher required us to run and hit a softball. I didn't do either well. He later told me that I was "not athletic".

The idea that I was "not athletic" stuck with me for years. When I started running in my 30s, I realized running was a battle against myself. It was all about the battle against my own body and mind. It was a test of wills.

The night before my marathon, I dreamt that I couldn't even find the finish line. I woke up sweating (出汗) and nervous, but ready to prove something to myself.

The next day, the Marathon started.

At mile 3, I passed a sign: "GO FOR IT, RUNNERS!"

By mile 17, I became out of breath and the once injured ankle hurt badly.

By mile 21, I was quite hungry. As I approached mile 23, I could see my wife waving a sign. She is my biggest fan.

I was one of the final runners to finish. But I finished. And I got a medal. In fact, I got the same medal as the guy who came in first place had.

Determined to be myself, move forward, free of shame and worldly labels (世俗標簽). I can now call myself a "marathon winner".
