li peng: running is a required course in life
Li Peng, who started running marathons in 2008, has now reached his tenth year.
In the 2017 Shanghai Marathon, Li Peng, known as the 'Wild Man' in Shanghai's amateur circle for his multiple marathon victories, achieved another personal best. He finished in 2 hours, 24 minutes, and 21 seconds, 8 minutes and 30 seconds faster than his time in the Beijing Marathon, earning him the third place among domestic runners in the Shanghai Marathon. Having participated in marathons in many cities, he still feels that running the Shanghai Marathon is the most special.
Running for ten years without changing his original intention, he has transformed from an enthusiast to a top expert.
In 2008, while still a graduate student, Li Peng participated in his first marathon. However, due to inadequate preparation, he suffered greatly. Despite this, he couldn't let go of marathons after that experience. In 2015, he started participating in half marathons and achieved good results, winning the Zhejiang Shaoxing Half Marathon and the Shanghai Qingpu Half Marathon. In 2016, he narrowly missed winning the men's title at the IAAF Diamond League Shanghai meet, competing against runners from Japan and France. The nickname 'Wild Man' began to spread in Shanghai's amateur circle. What truly made Li Peng famous was the 2016 Gold Coast Marathon in Australia. His excellent performance in half marathons earned him the opportunity to compete abroad for the first time. Competing against runners from various countries, Li Peng achieved the best result among Chinese participants.
Recalling his first marathon experience, he said he was persuaded by friends to participate and, knowing little about marathons, felt like crying on the track, thinking 'I'll never run again.' However, he subsequently won the Zhejiang Shaoxing Half Marathon, the Shanghai Qingpu Half Marathon, and the men's title at the IAAF Diamond League Shanghai meet.
Growing up in the countryside, Li Peng loved running around and discovered he was faster than others, so he kept running. Now, marathons have become an indispensable part of his life, broadening his horizons beyond work. He is intrinsically drawn to the passion of marathons, as they are always filled with enthusiasm, unlike the mundane life he can't stand. Running marathons is a great physical challenge, and he enjoys the feeling of 'breaking through.' More importantly, he enjoys the state of shedding burdens and 'emptying himself' while running.
Joining the Yibao 'Dream Team' made Li Peng's life even more fulfilling.
On one hand, he loves marathons; on the other, he receives some support, making it a 'win-win.' So when his friend Zhou Qixiang told him about Yibao's idea of forming a 'Dream Team,' they immediately agreed. From running for fun to becoming a physical education teacher and then joining the 'Dream Team' because of marathons, running has brought significant changes to his life. He hopes this sport can also bring changes to his students, as a healthy body is more important than anything else, and running is a 'compulsory course' in life.
