Ultra-long-distance mountain training is the cornerstone of success in 100-kilometer trail running races.
The 100-kilometer trail run is neither an event in the National Games nor an Olympic sport, and as it has not been established in mainland China for long, professional athletes generally do not train for it, and professional coaches and researchers rarely include it in their studies. As a result, both theoretically and practically, it is not as systematic or well-developed as the marathon. Most participants proceed through trial and error,...

Equestrianism is a way of life.
Like tennis and golf, equestrianism is regarded as a "noble sport" in China. However, in the UK—the birthplace of all three—tennis and golf are actually accessible to everyone. It’s only when you become a professional athlete, needing to invest significant time and money to compete at the highest level, that the costs rise. Equestrianism, on the other hand, is considered a "noble sport" in the UK not so much because of the expense involved in riding, but because it is a sport highly favored by the British royal family and aristocracy. Queen Elizabeth II herself is an avid horse enthusiast, and her daughter, Princess Anne, is one of the most prestigious female professional riders in equestrian competitions. In Britain, equestrian events are also important social occasions. During major tournaments, gentlemen and ladies in attendance dress formally. For a commoner hoping to connect with a duke, discussing famous riders and horses is the best icebreaker.
