The moon had not yet set in the sky, but the sun was already gradually shining its light on the fish's belly, and the temperature was beginning to rise again.
Three figures were chasing each other on the playground.
The three people chasing each other were unfamiliar faces, along with some other unfamiliar faces in between, which surprised the regular morning runner. Were these all newcomers this year? Was this year too crowded?
In particular, three figures kept a steady pace, taking turns leading the way and adjusting their breathing. The group grew from three to four, five, six, and gradually more and more people joined the team. Even the upperclassmen who had initially been observing joined the group.
Ten kilometers, fifteen kilometers, twenty kilometers.
Around the 30km mark, the number of people in the group gradually decreased, and by the last 40km, we started walking at a slower pace.
"Awesome! It's been a long time since I've run this well." "Yangyang, how's it going today? Can you keep going?" Xia Yiyang, covered in sweat and panting heavily, was a little pale. He had stopped at the 30-kilometer mark and walked a lap slowly.
"I'm alright, but I've never run this far before. The pace was a bit fast today, and I kept adjusting my breathing with Sister An'an. Fortunately, I ran five kilometers more than before." Xia Yiyang felt that today's New Year's Day was his limit.
"Tear!" Xia Yiyang heard the sound and looked in Chu Xingyue's direction.
"Wow, this woman is amazing! She's gone 40 kilometers and she's still wearing sandbags?" The crowd immediately erupted in commotion.
"Where did this big shot come from? Is this even a human body? Does she have no limits?"
"I don't care where she came from, I ran 5 kilometers more today by keeping up with this lady's pace." "I'll definitely follow her whenever she's around, it's so cool." "Me too, I broke my own record today, I ran 3 kilometers more." "I ran 1 kilometer more."
Chu Xingyue smiled and nodded at the students chatting in the crowd, then got up and walked with Chu Jiaojiao to the dormitory to take a shower and have breakfast.
"Hey, did you hear? This morning a top freshman led a group of runners, and she ran an amazing 40 kilometers!"
"Really? And it's a girl?"
"Do you know what's so amazing about it?"
"What? What? Hurry up and say it, you're driving me crazy!"
"Someone saw her running the entire time wearing sandbags."
"And although the people running behind her couldn't keep up for the whole race, they all broke their previous best times. This woman's pace is not low."
"Ah, are we running again tomorrow? I want to go too. I've been stuck at 15 kilometers for a long time, I can't run even one more kilometer."
"You're dreaming. They're starting military training tomorrow."
"Doesn't that mean I can only join them after they finish their military training?"
"Oh, that's for sure." A Northeastern accent even came out.
Xia Yiyang returned to her dorm, took a shower, and dried her hair, preparing to go to the cafeteria later to have breakfast with her sisters.
After finishing breakfast at the cafeteria, Lu Tianxin ran into the dormitory and said, "Hey, big news! I heard that a girl ran forty kilometers on the playground this morning with sandbags strapped to her."
Lu Zehua, who was lying in bed reluctant to get out of bed, jumped off. "Really? Xinxin?"
Du Kangli, who was reading at his desk, looked up and stared at Lu Tianxin with his mouth slightly open upon hearing this.
Seeing Xia Yiyang drying her hair, I asked, "Xia Yiyang, you're taking a shower now? Did you go for a run this morning?"
"Mmm," Xia Yiyang replied as she bent down to put on her shoes and tie her shoelaces.
"I'm not chatting with you guys anymore, I'm going to the cafeteria for breakfast. Do you two want me to bring some?"
"Go, go, I need to put on my shoes." "Kangzi, are you coming?"
"Let's go, let's go together."
