Example 1 Last month, I joined the Rogu Marathon, my first marathon contest. I thought it would be a great experience for me to try out. I had to run 42 kilometres to complete it. It was hard. First, I woke up very early in the morning because the marathon started at 7 a.m. When I arrived at the venue, I found out that there were actually a lot of people who participated in it. We were excited to run the marathon. When the marathon started, I ran as fast as I could. After some kilometres, I was already tired, so I just jogged for the rest of the way. Finally, I finished the marathon. It was exhausting, but it was also so fun. After that, I wanted to join another marathon. I was interested in improving my running time, and I also experienced a good feeling with the other runners. It was a very wonderful experience for me.
