勵志路跑文章 Runner’s Motto Quote
这句精华是我最喜欢的,我把它排在第一:
■「跑步」:我認為不論距離長短,只要跨出「自信的第一步」,相信就能完成「成功的最後一步」。或許今日我不是運動的大明星,但今日的努力付出,必能使我明日成為平凡中不平凡的人生。
(丫南分部生力軍劉昌蒲)
■ 我很難解釋跑步時在想什麼,但是當你的身體與體能已達到負荷極限時,你反而會進入另一種境界,會讓你的頭腦更清明。
(Yiannis Korous 超級馬拉松世界紀錄保持人)
■ 人生就像跑步一樣,要每天不斷地練習。如果你要比別人跑得快,那就必須加倍的努力。如果別人跑在你前面,你就要尊敬他,因為他比你努力。
(台塑董事長王永慶)
■ 在跑步時辰裡,隨時都給自己打氣,很肯定也很有自信的一件事。未來二、三十年,我還會站在起跑點等待倒數的秒數,等待信號槍響邁出每次的第一步。
(永和慢跑蕭萬呈會長)
■ 不要怕輸在起跑點上,因為人生有如長跑, 贏別人一個膝蓋又如何?後面的路還很長!重要的是要做充分的準備,且下定決心,把不充分的才智發揮到極致。
(台北市長馬英九)
■ 馬拉松豐富了跑步的內涵, 提高了跑步的層次和意義,所以馬拉松應該不是生活的目的, 而是引導跑步與生活更緊密結合的助融劑, 因為要挑戰馬拉松,勢必要勤練跑步,要跑步則要規劃生活內容,堅持健康的生活過程,如此,生活不會失焦,不會迷失,才能提高生命的質(健康)與量(长寿)。
(台灣準百馬開朝元老黃政德)
■ 馬拉松的魅力,就在於每一次雖然都是一樣的42.195公里,但是每一次的42.195公里都會帶給跑者完全不同於以往的經驗。馬拉松是人生當中一段漫長 的征途,馬拉松是人生當中一遭無止盡的、充滿著酸苦與痛楚的旅程,馬拉松更是每個跑者在人生的光影裡完完全全享有的一段寂寞而又甜美的記憶。
(台灣馬拉松 文豪─杏仁小丸子,摘自基隆安樂網站)
■「看超級馬拉松是很危險的事,一看就會上癮,無法自拔」有人問berces會不會中途退出,她只回答三個字「DYING BEFORE QUIT」
(Edit berces,100K-200K-100miles-24H計時跑等四項超馬世紀錄保持人)
■雖然很痛苦,不過痛苦很快就會過去!感到痛苦的人,不只是你而已,大家都很痛苦,但是要跟自己作戰,勇敢跑下去!所謂的馬拉松大賽,是一種擁有同樣目標的人,彼此在一起切磋煉化同樣痛苦,富有相當意義的競技。
(摘自東立漫畫─馬拉松硬漢第十九集)
■ 我覺得參加比賽是讓自己有跑的動力,而且每次跑完都會很期待下一次路跑賽。還沒比賽時,一直覺得自己可能跑不完,或者倒數幾名,不過實際去跑後,會發現一定有人跑在後面,且放鬆跑一定跑的完,覺得有跨出,才會有進步。
(丫族生力軍瑞偉兄)
■ 在艱辛又無味的漫長路程中,尋找自我,面對自我,挑戰自我,再超越自我,這就是我追求的人生。
(丫南分部女飛人蘇怡芳)
■ 理想是我練跑時最大的動力,在路跑時可以思考自己許多的計晝和理想。人的生存只在一呼一吸之間,唯有在專心路跑時,才能體察出許多的人生哲理,也唯有不斷的跑下去,人生才會完美。
(丫族會友楊榮瑞兄)
■ 如果是為了健康,我清楚知道,動機不會這麼強,也不需要這麼費力;想要運動是因為喜歡運動時那種寧靜、和平的感覺,這已經超過了健康,是一種嗜好,而且會上癮。
(董氏基金會執行長暨慈濟大學教授─葉金川)
■ 慢跑不只是打發時間的一項運動而己,還可以藉此控制體重、訓練克服困難的毅力、及提昇精神生活層面,具有全面性的助益。
(立法委員暨民視董事長蔡同榮)
■ 每一場路跑、馬拉松或超級馬拉松賽,我都會以無比的智慧、信心、決心及毅力和十足的勇氣而跑,因為我從不認為自己有相當的天賦和能力!我個人始終認為:真正的挑戰在於永無休止的自我突破,不斷征服自己的過程!
(大腳丫toprunner吳永發)
■ 一般的路跑只是用你的"腳"在跑,但是馬拉松卻要用你的"心"去跑,馬拉松是跑者的最高殿堂,也是生命與生活的結晶體,每次的馬拉松賽事也是吾人反省檢思 學習的課程…只要你肯用"心"去跑,不論快慢、無關時間,每人均能真正領受人生的目的、生活的意義與生命的價值。
(高雄澄清湖慢跑隊胡木成)
■ 一個人能接受多少挑戰,就表示他有多大的能力。比方,在工廠、公司、單位裡,你能做到那一種職位?你擔任主管,能做那一級的主管?甚至在社會機關裡,你能 負責那一種職務?這都是表示你的能力有多少。人生就像階梯,又如登山,能夠接受一級、一級的挑戰,而不覺得工作太多、太煩,就表示你有能力。其實,每一個 人內心都有無盡的能源,只要自己精進不懈,就能開發出來。
(星雲法語)
■ 如果你要體驗人生,就來跑馬拉松;如果你要享受人生,就來跑100K超馬。
(大腳丫陳傳男會長以10hr:42:46完跑日本SAROMA湖100K超級馬拉松心得感言)
■ 找一群有共同目標的人,減少放棄念頭出現的機會,正面思考與充滿信心,我想這些就是我貫徹跑下去的竅門吧!
(丫南黃同賢於2005梨山馬拉松賽)

[新闻] Marathon winner who wasn't
大,小型比赛都好,如果拿人家号码跑,当你有机会站在podium,你觉得你可以瞒天过海吗?
事后被主办当局发现,取消资格,排名更新,新闻报导出街,对自己名声也不好吧。只会得不偿失。既然可以跑那么快,为何不报名?

my paper
KENYAN runner Willy Kipkemoi Rotich, 20, finished first at last weekend's Sundown Marathon, but everyone thought a Richard Habeya had won.
Rotich clocked 2hr 53min 13sec when he crossed the 42.195km finishing line, but was disqualified by race organisers HiVelocity for competing with another person's race tag.
He had raced using participant number tag E6121 belonging to Mr Habeya, a 24-year-old Nigerian, who did not race despite registering for the marathon. A check with Mr Habeya by the race organisers revealed that he was aware of this.
Rotich's sham was discovered when organisers performed their duty of calling the winners to double-check that their race timings as well as their particulars were correct.
HiVelocity general manager Benjamin Wee said: "We have tried to contact Willy on numerous occasions but he could not be reached.
"He seems to be uncontactable and is not replying to the numerous messages we have left for him."
The race directors disqualified Rotich based on Mr Habeya's admission that the former had ran in his place. The top prize for the Men's Open category – which Rotich had run under – was $500 cash, among other prizes.
Finishers from second to eleventh place have been moved up the ranking ladder, with runner-up Ahmad Lamchannak, 30, of Morocco, who clocked 3:09:11, becoming the new winner.
While this may be the first time someone has raced competitively using another person's race tag in the Sundown Marathon, the act is not alien to Rotich.
Earlier in April, he raced in the Baguio 21km race in the Philippines using the tag of another Kenyan, Daniel Koringo.
He was disqualified two weeks after that race when he tried to cash the winnings at a bank using Mr Koringo's passport.
Mr Wee explained that the organisers do verify details when athletes collect their race packs a week prior to the race.
He added: "But on the day of the race, we relied on everyone's...integrity. That is a value every sports event must strive to promote."
When told about the fraud, 22-year-old Jack Ong, who ran the Sundown marathon, was surprised but felt that Rotich deserved the glory and award for being the one to run and finish the race in record time.
Half-marathon runner Kris Tan, 30, was also ready to accord Rotich respect for managing to clinch the winning spot with a clear margin.
However, the partner of a digital advertising firm disagreed with the idea of racing under another person's name as it may complicate identification in case of emergency.
"One could be unconscious and the only identification could be just the racing bib and this may delay help," he said.

跑步/练习时的安全意识

(如果所有的训练方法是"Internal", 那我自称这为"External"的安全意识,就是跟练习不相关的,但是又必须注意的)
如图,除了驾车车主们该隄防路边跑友们外(1.5公尺安全距离),
基本上跑友们也该有一定的安全意识,对自己的安全该负责任。
以下几点是我跑步时所注意到:
1) 过马路/红绿灯: 我们如果跑二十公里的路(从Bukit Aman出发直到Hartamas Petronas Petrol Station),一定路过一条高速公路。有一次,我看见某个年级较大的跑友,在过这条马路时,走路+轻松喝水。哎呀!听说曾经有跑友在过马路时被车撞到。
2) 不要越跑越出线: 除非比赛封路,不然请紧记,靠边跑,不要跑在路中,有时候汽车太快,尤其是转弯角,很容易出意外。
३) 音乐耳机: 可以听音乐(有些跑友,引证了多年前某间唱片公司的标题: No Music, No Life!,但是不鼓励把耳机音乐调至最大声,连身边跑友们礼貌打招呼,讲话都听不到。对周遭没有警觉性,好危险!
4) 穿上带有反光材料的跑步装备成为绝大多数跑友的共同选择, 尽量少穿暗色衣物。
以上是我自己的意见,还有更多欢迎大家交流。

[文章篇] 年轻各种跑
杂志的读者群是男士们 台湾版时尚健康 Men'sHealth,文章除了比较适合男生阅读 (例如“想象一下今年夏天你在美女云集的沙滩上穿着泳裤的样子),基本上都适合所有喜欢跑步的朋友们阅读。以下是我自己的阅后感 :
清晨是跑步的最佳时间:我的确比较喜欢,而且已经习惯了。
让自己现在就跑的5个理由:去运动用品商店买一双很酷的跑鞋?难道不是买一双适合自己的跑步鞋吗?之后才考虑鞋子设计与颜色。不然只是酷,但是跑起来不舒服也就变成休闲鞋哟。
大马没有四季,当然可以说长期是夏天(如果没有下雨),不过基本上,如果你去海边度假,游泳等。也希望自己的身材可以很好吧,吸引众人目光,无意间也增加自己的自信心。所以跑得健康,跑的开心。
跑步会让小腿变粗:这个尤其是初跑者(女性)都会询问这个问题,看来这个答案应该可以令女士们安心。
试着这样跑:跑对姿势绝对很重要,跑前跑后热身少不了,不过至于“注意时间”这点,这个我无法认同,尤其是跑半马,全马的跑友们。但是也要照顾,不然出现过度疲劳(Burn Out)就不好。至于最后一点是速度,我就不大感兴趣。
甩掉赘肉的跑法: 看来要健身,减肥的跑友们要加把劲把它读完。但是关于第三点,我个人看法,可能不包括水果蔬菜吧,因为这两样食物,拥有高纤维,容易帮助消化,但是如果跑步时发生,去厕所的机会提高。跑友们要小心隄防下。(视个人体质而定)
饮食与时间的搭配 : 跑步身体所需得能量很重要,所以一定要配合适当得饮食。对,偶尔是可以善待自己,吃些“垃圾食品”吧!
走走也很好:第三点非常有意思,初加入跑步的跑友们。你们可以从慢跑开始。加油!
最后那句总结我喜欢:专业的跑道绝对能够让你跑得更远,更健康!
清晨是跑步的最佳时间?
错。最佳的运动时间在下午的4~7点之间,因为这时候人体各个系统的配合处于最佳状态,运动效率也会相应提高。
让自己现在就跑的5个理由
1. 坚持跑步对于增强腰腹力量以及大腿肌肉群的效果非常显著,而这恰恰是让你在卧室里战无不胜的最关键身体条件。
2. 如果你觉得现在的天气还不足以让你乐于脱掉外套跑到户外去,那么设想一下当你大汗淋漓地回到家里冲个热水澡的感觉吧,是不是好多了?
3. 别说你还有很多事情没做完,无论是写报告还是刷盘子,这些都可以放到晚上再去做,而那时候你已经不能出去痛快地跑一会儿了,对吗?
4. 去运动用品商店买一双很酷的跑鞋,为自己添置一件漂亮的T恤,甚至在iPod里面增加一些适合跑步的音乐……这些本来就是很享受的事情!
5. 想象一下今年夏天你在美女云集的沙滩上穿着泳裤的样子,这还不足以让你现在就开始吗?
跑步会让小腿变粗?
错。在有氧力量训练中,肌肉的膨胀率实际上不太可能超过20%。所以在日常跑步中,小腿即使变粗,也不会超过这个比率,而这几乎是看不出来的。更多的错觉来自不正确的跑步姿势:比如有的人用脚尖跑步,这样小腿就会疲劳,有紧绷感,感觉小腿在“变粗”。
试着这样跑
1. 跑对姿势
正确的跑步姿势应是由脚后跟过渡到前脚掌。这样才能更均衡地锻炼腿部的全部肌肉群并且不容易产生运动伤害。
2. 跑后放松
伸展,揉一揉,用力拉伸都是很好的放松。注意拉伸的时候尽量保证做到10个深呼吸以上才能达到最好的效果。
3. 注意时间
跑步时间以30~60分钟为宜,低于30分钟无法起到燃烧脂肪的作用,而过度运动也会造成肌肉疲劳和关节磨损。
4. 尝试变速
每跑一段距离(大约2公里),你可以尝试改变当前的速度,变速跑能使你的耐力迅速提升。
甩掉赘肉的跑法
1. 如果想通过跑步或健身减重,最好在吃东西前或者之后计算出燃烧的卡路里。一般来说,每公里的慢跑可以烧掉60卡路里,这样你就知道你刚刚吃的那些东西要多久才能跑掉了吧?
2. 吃饭时间并不能改变卡路里燃烧值,但是不正确的时间会影响你在训练中的表现和感受。饥饿感不但会降低你的运动强度和能够持续的时间,也会让你感到疲劳和更容易遭受运动伤害。
3. 尽量在跑步前2~4小时内进食,这样可以确保你的身体内储存有足够你消耗的燃料。这些食物最好包括易消化的碳水化合物,如意大利面、麦片、酸奶、水果蔬菜。
4. 在激烈的训练之后,你应该立即补充一些富含蛋白质和碳水化合物的东西,比如一点鸡肉、鱼、大豆或者脱脂牛奶。
饮食与时间的搭配 :
1 . 如果你喜欢早上跑步,尽量至少提前一个小时进食。如果没有时间来准备食物,试试能量食品或者运动饮料. 或者前一顿晚餐多吃些。
2. 如果你习惯中午跑步,最好吃顿早午加餐,并且打包你的午饭,在跑步后带回办公桌旁享用。还有,尽量多吃水果。
3. 如果你把跑步时间安排在晚上,那么就把午饭当做一天中最主要的一顿,并且让早餐尽可能健康,下午可以适当再吃些零食。
4. 偶尔吃一次垃圾食品不是世界末日。这并不是完全失控的事,别跟自己过不去,享受请自己客的感觉。
走走也很好
绝对没有必要为你在跑步过程中走了一段路而感到羞愧,1968年波士顿马拉松冠军布尔福特·安比在比赛中也是这么干的。
1. “区间长跑法”即使在那些拿到奥运长跑冠军的选手中也是依然适用的,他们通常会在体力下降到一个极限的时候采用慢跑甚至散步的方式恢复5分钟——直到觉得身体已经准备好下一次高速的运转。
2. 试试这个马拉松大师训练计划:每跑1.5公里,然后走1分钟,重复26次。你一定会完成这段看上去异常艰难的路线,而且不会遇到“体力墙”的干扰。
3. 对于一些刚刚处于开始阶段的跑步者来说,把走路融进跑步的过程,不但能增加自己坚持下去的信心,而且会让你受伤的机会大大减低。
4. 专业的跑道绝对能够让你跑得更远,更健康,直到,你能参加马拉松比赛的那一天。

Burn Out!
当Burn out的情况出现时候,
如果跑者正在面临着Burn out的话,休息是唯一的方法。
简单来讲"休息是为了走更长的路"
Burn out ,确實要小心,最重要的是不要弄傷身體,若只是Burn out休息足夠還可恢復,最忌訓練中受傷。
大家小心愛護自己的身體,特別是雙腿哦!

Sports Bra: Why Wear One?
Sports Bra: Why Wear One?

A bra should fit snugly without the rib band restricting breathing, it should give a smooth outline without unsightly bulges over the cups or around your back, and the straps need to be wide enough to support the breast without causing ridges on your shoulders. There is an excellent choice of styles available, traditional style bras that are designed for different levels of sporting activity, crop tops designed to be worn as outer or under garments and vests with concealed support. Quality sports bras are manufactured from high performance fabrics such as fabrics designed to wick moisture away from the body and minimize the effects of perspiration while exercising, or special fibers incorporated into many of the bras for anti-bacterial and anti-odor protection, or also superb high-tech fabrics which are quick drying, crease and abrasion resistant yet with a soft smooth feel against the skin. A good sports bra will be so comfortable you will forget you are wearing it, leaving you to concentrate on your sport.

RUN FOR YOUR LIFE: That beautiful run

看到跑友们的照片在报章上出现,他们都跑得好开心哟. 面子书上的留言更令我笑爆肚!
阅读以下文章,以下十个公园都曾有我的脚印,练跑+比赛,原来不知不觉中我都跑遍了雪隆大型公园。
如数最爱我还是选择Taman Tasik Permaisuri, 因为它是我的开跑之地,对她有种莫名的感情,哈
___________________________________________________________
WE may not have long rivers like Boston’s Charles or Paris’ Seine. Neither do we have a park similar to New York’s Central Park nor London’s Hyde Park. But that’s no excuse not to lace up our trainers because running, like living, is about making the best of what we have.
1 - Bukit Tunku
On weekends, when the city is still asleep, serious runners run along the slopes of Bukit Tunku, lined with vintage bungalows and shaded by greenery. You can find them in groups or running solo, coursing through the upscale housing area, which starts from the National Monument near the Lake Gardens and goes all the way up to the Jalan Duta/Segambut roundabout. With few cars zipping through, it’s a fairly safe place to train. All you need is a pair of very strong lungs and the will to take you the distance.
2 - Lake Gardens
A favourite among runners, the Lake Gardens is a weekend haunt. The carpark near the mosque in Bukit Aman is often full by 7am. You can run in the park, through terrain and rubberised tracks on the 2.3km loop. But it can get crowded with both runners and families taking a stroll.
3 - Taman Tasik Titiwangsa
If you live near the city centre, Taman Tasik Titiwangsa is worth the drive for a morning run. The outer loop is flat and along the 2.5km stretch, you also pass City Hall’s stable for its horses, the remote controlled car circuit which is a hit on weekend afternoons, and the lake, which is the focal point of this city park. The route is recommended for beginners.
4 - Taman Lembah Kiara
This park is popular with the residents of Taman Tun Dr Ismail and those living nearby. Facilities include a children’s playground, an exercise area and an aerobics area. And the sights include a beautiful lake, hill and waterfall. The small loop around the lake is 1.1km and is pretty flat. For a more challenging run, try the larger loop through the hill for variety in inclination. Watch out for the friendly monkeys that roam freely here.
5 - Taman Rimba Kiara
This park is bordered by Taman Tun Dr Ismail on one side and Bukit Kiara on the other. It’s hilly, challenging and a good place to practise your hill runs. It’s a 5km road and the peak takes you through a 2km loop. And, it’s my favourite place to run. The views you get of sunrise and sunset from the hill as you descend are beautiful. The tarmac road can get crowded during peak jogging hours, between 7am and 8am in the mornings, and from 6pm to 7pm in the evenings.
6 - Taman Metropolitan Kepong
I wish this park is closer to my home. It’s a large, sprawling area just next to the MRR2 highway in Kepong with synthetic and tarred routes. It has a 3.65km loop, quite big for a park. Bikers can cycle along its 5km bike loop. I like the sprawling green where people can fly their kites and the children’s playground. Although this place is spacious, if the car park is any indication, this place can get crowded.
7 - KLCC Park
In the middle of the city’s concrete jungle, there’s a small green sanctuary where office workers escape to for a run before or after work. The park is a big statement in a small space. Well-managed, it has a synthetic track that covers 1.3km per loop. Running in the morning is a better option as most office workers are out in force in the evenings.
8 - Taman Tasik Permaisuri
Located in Cheras, the southern part of the city, this 48.8ha park was built around a former mining pool and has gardens and floral arches, making it a favoured picnic spot for those living nearby during weekends. For runners, the park has three jogging routes loops of 1.3km, 1.8km and 4.7km. The terrain makes running even more challenging.
9 - Forest Reserve Institute Malaysia
Also located in Kepong, the 600-hectare site is surrounded by the Bukit Lagong Forest Reserve Park. The 5km and 10km trails are filled with joggers arriving as early as 5am. For workouts on short distance (sprinting, circuit or intervals), the nature trails are another option. This park is also favoured by cyclists.
10 - Taman Jaya
Just off the Federal Highway in Petaling Jaya is Taman Jaya. This park is frequented by PJ residents. It has a beautiful lake and a jogging track within. It is easily accessible via LRT, and Amcorp Mall is just across the road, so you can schedule mall and park time together.
