Chapter 243: Apex distance
Li Hao lined up to receive the players' number plates and supply packs, which contained supplies such as energy gel, salt pills, and sports drinks.
The race route of the University City Marathon half way round the entire University City, passing through multiple schools, with a total distance of 21.98 kilometers, and is aimed at college students.
Most of the college students who participated in the competition did not have long-distance running experience, and everyone did not come for medals, but came to join in the fun. For safety, to ensure that the players can complete the race safely, multiple medical stations and supply stations were set up along the way. .
Li Hao came to Xia Mo who was doing stretching exercises, admiring her slender figure with his hands behind his back for a while, and suddenly reached out and took off her baseball cap.
Xia Mo raised his eyes and glanced at Li Hao, and said lightly: "Naive."
"Are you really ready to hit the top 50?"
Li Hao knelt down to play with her hat, and asked with a smile.
"..."
Xia Mo didn't speak, but her cold and serious expression showed her inner determination.
"There is no men's and women's division in this competition. You have seen the big guys in the sports academy. Are you sure you can compete with them?"
Li Hao attacked mercilessly.
"..."
Xia Mo pressed her leg quietly, leaving Li Hao with a beautiful profile.
"Well, I just care about you a little bit, you can't help me if you insist."
Li Hao shrugged, got up and put the baseball cap on Xia Mo's head again, touched her head, and encouraged: "Come on."
After Li Hao left, Xia Mo raised his head and looked at his back, his cold eyes softened.
The starting gun fired and the game started.
A group of people in Wuyangyang rushed forward squeezing and bumping, the scene was the same as when the grandpa and aunt rushed to buy discounted goods on the supermarket discount day.
Li Hao calmly draped in the back. This is not a 100-meter run. It doesn't matter how fast you start. It's 21 kilometers, what's the hurry.
The most important thing for long-distance running is to allocate physical strength and speed reasonably. Otherwise, even if you run as handsome as a horse in front, you will be tired and embarrassed like a dog in the back.
Of course, no matter how you allocate your physical strength and speed reasonably, the upper limit of the human body is there. After all, it is a mortal body, not a robot, and even a robot needs to be charged. If there is no supplies, it is difficult for ordinary people to stick to it. At the end point, it is necessary to take energy gels and salt pills to supplement energy and electrolytes at the right time, which can significantly enhance your body's endurance and help you reach the end point.
Li Hao ran slowly while maintaining an even and rhythmic pace, while putting on headphones and playing brisk songs to attract the brain's attention, thereby reducing the fatigue from his body.
His physical fitness has always been good. Before playing basketball in high school, he could still go to the Internet cafes to open black. The 1000-meter test is also the fastest in the class. He is not a type of regular exercise. He can only think about it. Thanks to a strong gene, according to my dad, when he was young, his grandfather often took hundreds of catties and walked the mountain road for 20 to 30 miles.
He has surpassed many players one after another, but he has not seen Xia Mo. He should be even ahead. This girl is desperate to get the 500 yuan reward, but I don't know how long she can hold on.
After a while, Li Hao saw a familiar staggering figure in front of his field of vision.
Stepping up to speed up to Yan Ruyu's side, Li Hao asked, "Where is your brother?"
Yan Ruyu ran slowly, panting, and turned his head when he heard the sound. After seeing Li Hao, he shook his head and said with difficulty: "He...he is in front."
"Really an irresponsible elder brother, this will leave my sister behind."
Li Hao shook his head and sighed, surpassing Yan Ruyu.
"..."
Yan Ruyu stomped angrily when he saw this, you are also an irresponsible brother!
...
At the five-kilometer rest stop, Li Hao finally saw Xia Mo. She was eating bananas, her face was exhausted, and the fine hair on her temples was wetted with sweat, sticking to her cheeks, adding a touch of charm.
Li Hao took a banana, came to Xia Mo's side, smiled and said, "I can't catch up with you so fast."
Xia Mo didn't speak, panting lightly to regain her strength. These five kilometers were too uncomfortable for a girl of hers.
"How does your body feel?"
Li Hao continued to ask for himself, he was actually worried that Xia Mo's knee could withstand such a high-intensity long-distance running, and the old injury of ligament strain was too easy to recur.
Xia Mo shook her head, her eyes firm, "It's okay."
Li Hao nodded, glanced at her right knee, and said: "If you feel uncomfortable, stop, there is no need to fight like that."
"Um."
Xia Mo nodded, took a sip of the sports drink, and set off on the road again.
After Li Hao rested for a while, he followed.
After five kilometers, the runners slowed down significantly, and they all switched to a jogging posture. People with less physical strength would walk while running.
Li Hao has always been behind Xia Mo. After all, she is just an ordinary girl. She doesn't run fast. It is easy for Li Hao to follow her, but her willpower is indeed very tough. Li Haodu I could clearly feel her tiredness, but Xia Mo never stopped and kept running.
At the 10 km rest point, everyone was breathing heavily and sipping sports drinks to replenish energy. The number of players who arrived here was significantly less than the 5 km rest point, and some people could not persist and chose to retire. Looking at this trend, if the game can be completed, the top 50 will be a natural thing.
Here, Li Hao met Yan Rusong.
"Li Hao, how do you look like you... don't seem to be tired at all?"
Yan Rusong asked with his hands on his knees, breathing heavily.
"Okay."
Li Hao said lightly: "When I was in high school, I was punished by the teacher to run too much in the playground. I'm used to this kind of long-distance running."
Yan Rusong gave a thumbs up, "Cow!"
"In other words, if you just leave your sister behind, you won't kneel down on durian when you go back?"
Li Hao glanced at Yan Rusong and asked with a smile.
"It's not my wife, what durian is on my knees."
Yan Rusong waved his hand, and said, "I didn't want to come. She has been pestering me to come, so I had to get rid of her first, and then go back a bit later."
Well, I confirmed the look in my eyes, it's my brother.
"How about you, are you going to finish the course?"
Yan Rusong asked back.
Li Hao glanced at Xia Mo who was not far away, nodded and said: "Well, there is 500 yuan, enough for a hot pot, it will be wasted if you don't finish running."
Yan Rusong laughed, "Unexpectedly, you would still bend your waist for 500 yuan."
Li Hao smiled, "No matter how small a mosquito's leg is, it is meat."
In fact, there are 1,000 sign-in coins, rounded up to 1.5 million, and 1.5 million for 20 kilometers, so many people are willing to run naked.
After starting from the 10 km rest point, Xia Mo's speed slowed down again. Now Li Hao didn't need to run much, he could keep up with just walking.
When he arrived at the 15-kilometer rest point, Xia Mo was soaked in sweat, panting heavily, and the legs supported by both hands trembled slightly, apparently on the verge of physical collapse.
Li Hao walked over and handed over a bottle of sports drink, "Sip."
Xia Mo glanced at him, took the drink, unscrewed it and drank it.
"Oh I forgot to tell you, I drank this bottle."
Li Hao said suddenly.
"..."
Xia Mo almost choked on the water, gave Li Hao a fierce look, screwed on the bottle cap and threw the water back to Li Hao.
Li Hao smiled, and said, "I was surprised that you can't expect you to stay here."
Xia Mo closed his eyes and ignored him.
Li Hao was not annoyed when she was thrown cold, and sat down beside her, unscrewed the bottle cap and drank a drink, and said: "The next journey is the most difficult. I suggest you replenish energy gel and salt pills first. It will be so uncomfortable."
Xia Mo opened her eyes and glanced at Li Hao coldly, "disgusting."
Li Hao smiled and raised the drink bottle, "I think it's okay, it smells like you, I like it."
Xia Mo's chest went up and down a few times, and he took a heavy breath, stepped aside and started to eat energy gel and salt pills.
Li Hao smiled and looked at her slender figure. It was a rare opportunity to take advantage of Xia Mo, and it was not a bitch.
The remaining six kilometers is the final journey. Basically, the athletes who can stick to this place are high school sports students. Beautiful girls like Xia Mo are mixed in, like Samoyed mixed with wolves. There was a serious sense of violation, and many people along the way held up their mobile phones to take pictures.
Li Hao followed closely behind her. Although the race has completed 34 distances, there is a saying that it is good. One hundred miles is half and ninety. The last part of the distance is the most difficult. It may be more than the previous 15 kilometers. It is even harder to get up, and accidents are often the easiest to occur at this stage.
It didn't take long for Li Hao to worry about it. Xia Mo, who was running slowly in front of him, suddenly staggered, covering his right leg and sitting on the ground.
Seeing this, Li Hao hurried to her side.
Xia Mo sat on the ground, covered her right knee with her hands, her face was painful, and she gritted her teeth tightly, and big beads of sweat rolled from her cheeks.
Seeing this situation, Li Hao's heart sighed, the most worried situation still appeared, Xia Mo's old knee problems recurred.
Sighing, Li Hao helped her up.
After Xia Mo stood firm, he walked a few steps, and pulled away his hand to continue running, but was held by Li Hao.
"what are you doing?"
Li Hao asked in a solemn voice.
"I want to keep running."
Xia Mo shook Li Hao's hand and wanted to break free of his shackles.
"How can you run if you hurt your knees? Don't you have your legs?"
Li Hao held her slender wrist tightly.
"let me go."
Xia Mo looked at him coldly and said.
"Do you think you can go on running in your current situation?"
Li Hao asked back.
"I'm fine, I just twisted it."
Xia Mo was still trying hard to break Li Hao's big hand.
"I won't let go, go to the hospital with me."
Li Hao took Xia Mo to the side of the road.
"I don't care about you!"
Xia Mo suddenly opened her mouth and bit the back of Li Hao's hand.
"My grass!"
When the back of his hand hurt, Li Hao let go of his hand subconsciously. Xia Mo took the opportunity to break free and limped forward.
"Damn this woman, is it a dog?"
Blood beads came out on the back of Li Hao's hand, showing how much energy Xia Mo used to bite him just now.
The back of his hand wiped the clothes casually, Li Hao looked up at her stubborn back, his eyes a little distressed and helpless.
Xia Mo's injury is definitely not just a sprain. It must be accompanied by a knee ligament strain. Xia Mo can stand up and barely run because of the adrenaline, which reduces her pain perception. After calming down, her knees The severe pain will make her walking difficult.
The first measure now is to stop exercising and reduce the possibility of further injury, but with Xia Mo's persistent and tough character, she has already run here, and she will never give up easily. Forcibly holding her will only arouse her resistance. .
Li Hao thought for a while, exchanged 3 bottles of stamina potions from the system mall and drank it.
By now, I had to give up the task first and send Xia Mo safely to the end.
When he came to Xia Mo, Li Hao squatted down. When Xia Mo didn't react, he lifted her on his back and started to run.
"You, what are you doing?"
After a while, Xia Mo recovered and struggled on Li Hao's back.
"Don't waste your effort, you can't make it."
Li Hao smiled and said, "Furthermore, you can be considered as continuing to play in this way. Enjoy it with peace of mind."
Xia Mo's weight is very light, she is easy to carry on her back, and Li Hao does not feel tired at all when she runs, and walks like flying.
Xia Mo struggled for a while, and when he saw Li Hao's ruthless iron hand, she gave up. She was already weak and weak. Li Hao's hands were still holding her tightly like iron hoops, causing her to stop. Immobile.
She lay quietly on Li Hao's back and breathed out. The hot and humid breath made Li Hao's face itchy. The sweat on her body soaked Li Hao's clothes, and she could clearly feel the warmth of her body.
"Aren't you tired?"
After a long time, Xia Mo said softly.
"Originally tired, you're energized when you put it on your back."
Li Hao smiled.
"..."
Seeing Li Hao looking like a lively tiger, Xia Mo was puzzled. He obviously ran behind him, why he was tired and weak, but he was full of energy. Is the gap between people so big?
Li Hao's broad shoulders were very comfortable lying on her stomach. She quickly relaxed completely, but there was a sharp pain in the knee of her right leg. Xia Mo bit her lower lip and endured it without saying a word. Beads of sweat dripped.
"Does it hurt?"
Li Hao Yuguang saw her expression and asked aloud.
"Um."
Xia Mo nodded lightly, resting her chin on his shoulders, her eyes lightly closed, and the cold shell was taken off, revealing a soft appearance.
"It is said that you can't go on in this situation, you don't believe it."
Li Hao shook his head and laughed.
"..."
After being silent for a while, Xia Mo said, "Thank you."
"If you really want to thank me, give me a kiss."
Li Hao crossed his face and said.
Xia Mo turned his face and ignored him.
The closer the finish line was, the more spectators there would be along the way. Many people shouted to cheer for the players, and soon everyone noticed Li Hao.
"Am I right? He is carrying a **** his back?"
"You read that right, I saw it too, he was carrying a **** his back to participate in the marathon!"
"I'm going! This Nyima **** man!"
"It's too romantic to participate in the marathon with your girlfriend on your back!"
"Take a photo! Let everyone see, what is true love?"
"How did he do it? Wouldn't he be tired?"
"..."
There was a lot of discussion, and the tired runners on the track also noticed the movement. They turned their heads and saw a boy walking like a **** his back. A few steps passed them, and they almost vomited blood in shock.
This……
I'm the **** one person can't run two people?
They received 10,000 critical hits in their hearts, and they wanted to catch up with Li Hao faster, but their bodies were really weak, and their legs were the same as lead pouring. They could only watch Li Hao’s back more and more. Far.
Amidst the more and more enthusiastic cheers and applause, Li Hao crossed the finish line with Xia Mo on his back, and the staff almost dropped their chin when seeing this.
Participating in a marathon with someone on your back?
This……
See you for a long time!
Li Hao ran to the stunned staff and asked calmly: "Well, I have a question that I want to consult."
"Oh...you said."
The staff was stunned, and came back to his senses.
"I'm like this. Two people are competing together, right?"
Li Hao asked.
"Forehead……"
The staff hesitated, and said uncertainly: "Forget it..."
"The reward is also counted as two, right?"
Li Hao asked again.
Xia Mo buried his face deeply into Li Hao's back, as if he didn't want to know him.
"..."
The staff opened their mouths to look at Li Hao, then at Xia Mo, nodding blankly, "It should be... forget it."
"That's good, remember, double!"
Li Hao smiled and made a yeah gesture.
"..."
The staff is speechless, co-authoring you in such a big battle just to get those hundreds of dollars more?
Li Hao stepped aside and put Xia Mo off his back.
When he turned around, Xia Mo just raised his head, and the tips of their noses touched each other.
"..."
For a moment, it seemed that there was electricity passing by, and the two of them froze in place at the same time, quietly staring at each other's eyes.
"Wow, they are so romantic!"
Someone yelled, and the click of a photo sounded.
The two recovered, Xia Mo's heart jumped, and he hurriedly got up and took a few steps away from Li Hao.
Li Hao smiled and touched the tip of his nose.
At the moment, the distance between the two heart's apex seemed to be a step closer.
...
