"彩色跑的省思"

今年跑步活動實在非常地夯，經統計在台灣大概每兩天就有一場跑步活動。跑步這項運動，突然變成一種風潮，就像幾年前的單車運動一樣。尤其是用彩色玉米粉噴霧的彩色跑活動，更讓許多年輕人趨之若騖。

然而大部份的年輕人都只是趕流行。每個人穿著很炫的衣服、步鞋或配件，卻只有不到二分之一的人是用跑的跑完全程。而且活動結束後留下滿地的粉末顏料，反而污染了生態環境。

跑步固然是一個很好的運動，但應該要以平常心去看待。從日常生活中養成跑步的習慣，而不該只是為了時髦，間接傷害我們的生態環境，最終肥了商人的錢包。

(Sport) A Reflection on Running in Color

Running events have become incredibly popular this year. According to statistics, a running event is held in Taiwan almost every two days.The sport has turned into a craze, just like cycling did several years ago. In particular, events that involve the spraying of colored corn starch have taken young people by storm.

Sadly, most young people are only participating in these events to follow the craze.In spite of all the cool clothes, shoes and accessories everyone is wearing, those who run the entire race account for less than half of all the participants.What is more, the colored powder in which the ground is left covered when the events are over contaminates the environment.

There is no doubt that running is a good sport. However, we should not make a big deal out of it.We should incorporate running into our daily routine, rather than running for the sake of following the trend, indirectly damaging the environment and ultimately fattening the wallets of business owners.
