Blog Title: Research

Research method: Interview

Even though I enjoy long-distance running, it is not enough to help me to create the character of the story. In order to approach the mindset of the runner, I when to the stadium interview the runner.

That's the Saturday night (5/11) that I prefer I would meet a lot of runner on athletic track. Unluckily, people were not that much.  

Maybe I select the wrong time that the track users were like walking more than running. Perhaps it's because they only went for a walk after the dinner. Suddenly, I find that someone were running fast across the people. He gained my attention successfully and I would like to interview him after he sprinted.

Because of the respect, I wont publish his face. His name is Johnny and he is a university student in the course of sport management. Running is one of the favourite sport of Johnny. He said he will have a great feeling of success after every running. '' That's because of the endorphin. '' said Johnny.

Endorphin is a pharmacology stuff inside our body which are released to help easing the depression and pain.

I have asked Johnny that what he would think while he run. He answered me that he would think unconstrained when he was taking a long distance run. For example, he would think of something about the school homework or something like philosophic question such as the existentialism. However, he will only think of the finishing line while he was running in the short distance competition. That's the different attitude.

It is surprising me that I find someone as me that would like to think of the existentialism while running. After the interview, I decide to contain the sense of existence into the video
