2.This time last year I entered two long-distance mass-participation swimming events,including the Jubilee River 10km swim.At the last minute,just before both swims,I decided to pull out.The reality is,I live in fear of coming last.Last year,before the two events,I realized that I couldn't deal with coming last.I had looked at the swim times of those who had completed the previous year and calculated that,at my current swim pace,I would probably have come last.I just couldn't face it.But when next year came around,I decided to enter those same events again.
For a few months,I trained hard,but I didn't get any faster.Then it was June 5,the day of the Jubilee River 10km.The event started at 9:30am,and the swimmers were anxious and eager to start.As I swam along,the river was quiet and clean and everything was peaceful.The sun shone,Meadows (草地)rolled by and every now and then someone would wave at the scene unfolding in the water.
As the day wore on,somehow I didn't mind that,predictably,almost everyone was ahead.There were at least some swimmers still near me,and although we shared the same river we quietly occupied our own spaces.As I concentrated on doing my own thing,watching the sky,the bank,the other swimming caps passing or not passing,I realized I was enjoying myself.
In the end,four hours and 29minutes after I'd started,I staggered (摇摇晃晃地走)out of the water and was greeted with a smile and a"well done"from the race organizer.I glanced back over my shoulder toward the water and noticed that there were a small handful of swimmers who were still to finish,behind me,out of a field of around 300swimmers.But it didn't matter.I was just relieved,proud and happy to finish.
As I drove away,my thoughts turned to my next long race of the season and how much I was looking forward to it,my fears of coming last gently receding(渐渐远去).
