After a night's rest, Shen Yanming had recovered considerably. He got up before 5:30 a.m.
She tiptoed out of bed, grabbed her phone, bent down to pick up her shoes, and walked barefoot out of the bedroom.
He only relaxed a little after closing the bedroom door again.
I put on slippers, went to the bathroom to wash my face and brush my teeth, and then changed into comfortable training clothes and sneakers before going to the playground.
To his surprise, the person in charge of morning training was none other than Li Gangtie.
The dark-faced man didn't care whether the person was an acquaintance or not. He stared at the newcomer with a serious expression and gave the first order: a 10,000-meter run.
For those who used to sit in an office all day, running 3,000 meters was already a life-threatening task, let alone 10,000 meters.
Therefore, many people wanted to give up when they heard this number.
Li Gangtie didn't force anyone; he let those who were unwilling to run, or those who felt they couldn't do it, leave directly.
And so, only half the people remained on the playground.
Shen Yanming followed behind Li Gangtie and started running without hesitation. Seeing this, the others followed suit.
In fact, after working in Suzhou for a month, their physical strength and endurance had already improved significantly.
It's just that I've never run a long distance before, which is why I was initially scared by that number.
Not all those who remained believed they could run 10,000 meters.
Most of them recognize the importance of the opportunity, are unwilling to give up, and want to persevere, hoping that a miracle might happen.
And so, a group of people started running laps around the large playground.
During the first three kilometers, although it was tiring, almost no one fell behind.
But gradually, more and more people ran out of energy, and the team's overall speed slowed down.
Li Gangtie knew this was an inevitable outcome. He told those who had the energy to run ahead at their own pace, while those who couldn't run anymore slowed down and followed behind.
He allows it as long as the person isn't stopped and walking.
After all, individual differences are still quite obvious at the beginning of training.
Shen Yanming was in full swing during the first half of the race. But when he reached the 5,000-meter mark, his steps began to feel heavy.
Looking at Li Gangtie ahead, who was neither red-faced nor out of breath and whose steps were steady, he deeply realized the difference between the two of them.
He never expected that someone who regularly drinks the spiritual spring water would be less physically capable than an "ordinary person".
It seems he really was arrogant before.
However, it's good that you can recognize yourself in time, and then work hard towards your goals in the future.
He tried to adjust his breathing like Li Gangtie, and although his legs felt like they were filled with lead, he still managed to keep moving forward at a certain speed.
Perhaps he was too engrossed in the moment, because he felt as if everyone around him had disappeared, and he was all alone on the entire playground.
Step by step, circle by circle, exhale and inhale.
Shen Yanming was unaware that he had been running 10,000 meters and 10,000 meters. It wasn't until he had run 30,000 meters that Li Gangtie, fearing he had exhausted himself, rushed up and called for a stop.
He didn't dare to stop the person directly, but instead ran after him, letting him gradually slow down.
Shen Yanming felt annoyed by the buzzing around him and wanted to slap that annoying fly to death. But as soon as he raised his hand, he saw a familiar face.
It was at this moment that he came to his senses, slowly stopped and stood still, but felt all the strength in his body, and stumbled, almost falling.
Li Gangtie quickly caught him and laughed, "You're so energetic! You even ran 30,000 meters."
Shen Yanming looked completely bewildered. "Thirty thousand?"
"You don't know how long you've been running, do you?" Li Gangtie asked in surprise.
Shen Yanming shook his head, "It feels like as I run, I forget what I'm doing."
"He's completely absorbed in it!" Li Gangtie was surprised that the young man could be so focused while running. He praised him, "Keep practicing, he has a bright future."
Shen Yanming smiled but didn't say anything, because he really didn't have any strength left.
"Come on, let me help you to rest for a while," Li Gangtie said considerately.
Shen Yanming nodded, leaned against him, and walked towards the edge of the playground.
Meanwhile, his other colleagues, having finished their 10,000-meter run, were doing stretching exercises on the artificial turf in the center of the track. As they watched him walk by, they all cast admiring glances at him.
Shen Yanming was ashamed; he truly had no idea what stupid thing he had done. If possible, he really didn't want to be in the public eye.
When they reached the mulberry tree at the edge of the playground, Li Gangtie instructed, "Don't sit down right after exercising. Stand up and move around a bit so your legs won't hurt."
Shen Yanming leaned against the tree and said, "I know. I'll rest here for a bit and then continue."
Li Gangtie chuckled; he didn't think the other party had the energy to participate in other activities. He wouldn't say anything harsh to discourage Shen Yanming just because of his positive attitude and potential.
Shen Yanming actually understood what he meant, but seeing the gap between the two of them, he really didn't dare to be a lazy bum anymore.
Otherwise, what if we just lie around and get left behind by the world?
Thinking of this, Shen Yanming couldn't help but shudder.
Looking at the group who still had the energy to train with Li Gangtie, he felt anxious and looked around.
Seeing that the playground was empty, with no residential buildings or security cameras, he turned to face the big tree, raised his hands to cover his mouth and nose, took out a magical fruit from his spatial storage that could instantly restore his strength, and quickly swallowed it.
The miraculous fruit worked very quickly; in less than ten seconds, most of the aches and pains in my body disappeared.
At this point, there was no problem with following Li Gangtie in high-intensity training; however, his recovery speed was so incredible that he still needed to conceal it.
Instead of rushing to join the main group, he stayed under the mulberry tree, imitating Li Gangtie, raising his arms and kicking his legs.
Li Gangtie saw it out of the corner of his eye and, seeing that he was imitating it quite well, didn't go up to interrupt him.
Time flies, and it's already eight o'clock.
Li Gangtie shouted "Disband!" and a pile of "corpses" lay sprawled in front of him.
He was so angry he laughed. After kicking the man up, he walked up to Shen Yanming and made him repeat the action, giving him one-on-one guidance.
Shen Yanming didn't hesitate and, in front of the passing guards, imitated their movements.
Although Li Gangtie was shocked by the other party's powerful memory, he still pointed out the irregularities and explained the essence of the entire set of movements.
Shen Yanming was very grateful for this.
However, mastering the skill takes time and effort.
Li Gangtie raised his left hand, checked the time, and said, "It's already 8:20. Aren't you going back to make breakfast for Qiao An?"
Shen Yanming was stunned. He had forgotten.
It seems that being too studious isn't necessarily a good thing.
"Then I'll be going now, Captain Li. I'll ask you for advice again tomorrow!" Shen Yanming said hurriedly, and then ran off in a flash.
Li Gangtie shook his head and chuckled as he watched his retreating figure. "Young people still have a lot of potential. Look, it's only been a short time since he finished the 30,000-meter run, and he's already full of energy again."
