Plateau Jog in Starlight 星光下的 高原慢跑
Let me start with my sneakers.
Last night, my sneakers came in handy for the first time in Yunnan, and performed very cool—-after being laid idle for over two months. I hadn’t worn them for a single day until then. They, wrapped tight in a plastic bag, would stay inside forever,if I had slept well. They say exersise does good to sleep, offering my sneakers a chance of relizing their values. Hopefully, jogging will be a cure to my insomania. So yesterday marked my first day of jogging in Yunnan. (Originally, the sports shoes were brought to Yunnan mainly for climing mountains, by the way.)
Time to hit the sack but I was not sleepy at all. Outside was a cloudless night and beneath were my sneakers. In 10 seconds, I changed the shoes and hit the road. Excited to be surrounded by the tender night when jogging around the soot track. Along the way was intoxicating tranquility. Lucky for me, a weirdo who had rarely run before,to make a good start. Nearly forgot I was exercizing, for the near terraced houses and far mountains alternately kept attracting me, relaxing me and encouraging me. What a silhouette! Never expected my first jogging to happen on a plateau in the starlight. It simply hit the spot. Will I be hooked on it?
Three laps finished, I worked up a little sweat and felt a Never-experienced-before relaxation. A hot shower and some reading later, I switched off the bed light.
Come to Yunnan and enjoy jogging!
