Instead of running across deserts and mountains and endless prairies to achieve any goal or purpose, I packed my luggage for the transcontinental, imagining myself running freely like a buffalo running freely on the grasslands of the continent, free from the dullness of everyday ordinary life. A pitiful yearning, that I could not govern by myself, pushed my back and I set out on the road. The combination of the boundless imagination and the two strong legs, which are by-products of running, enabled me to go an endless trips to the faraway places that I had dreamed of since I was very young. I feel freedom of mind and body while I am running. When I enjoy the best freedom I've never had, I lose my reason for existence. Because this freedom that I am enjoying now has become the best goal and has dazzled my life.

Sleeping in Waynesboro was the worst nightmare. At first, I found a motel in the city on Google Maps and went to stay there, but it was more expensive than I thought. The rate at the motel was almost hotel-class. Usually I could negotiate the price, but not here. It's a long trip, so expensive motel fees are a big burden. When I looked up Google Maps again, there was another motel a few miles away. I was tired but I went there. It's cheap, so I paid for it, took a shower, and put my tired body in bed, but something kept biting me. There must be a bug. Still, there was no choice at this time of late night. As always, at this time, my body becomes a gimchi or a dead body. I try to sleep, but they keep biting so deadly that I can't sleep. I can't help but raise my heavy body, and spray a bottle of mosquito repellent on the room and bed and try to sleep again. Still, it's no use. The things that bite keep biting like ants. I couldn't sleep at all, and I couldn't ask for a refund in the middle of the night,either, so I packed my bags and left the motel.

I didn't set out in the middle of the night except when I first left California. It was because the night road was dangerous and it was feared to get lost. With fatigue lingering, I turned on my headlight in the dark at 2 a.m., flashing lights on my cart and ran down on the road. Darkness was unkind to a man who was exhausted, so I almost fell over and over again. The insects keep on biting so it itches here and there as I run. Not only the body, but also the sole of the foot in the shoes is itchy. I met the poisonous ones enough to bite the running soles of my feet. No matter how cheap the motel is, it is hard to understand how it continues to operate in the U.S. with this condition. I am worried about how to get rid of them all because they are in clothes and shoes. I've never met such a poisonous bite like these.

As I came out at the early dawn, I arrived at Lawrenceburg Motel before lunch. As soon as I entered the room, I put all my clothes in the bathtub and turned on the hot water. In the hot water, countless unknown insects emerged as the tiny black spots. At last, my tired body fell into a deep sleep. Now I think I'm free from the boring bugs. But the next morning when I run on my sneakers, they start biting my foot's bottom again. Shoes should have been put in hot water, too, last night. In the evening, I came to a motel, dipped all three pairs of sneakers in the same way as yesterday, and turned on hot water. Once again, bugs have risen on the water countlessly. And I sprayed mosquito repellent inside the wheelbarrow. Now I prayed earnestly for the release from the boring worm. The god I now believe in was the Spirit of Mother Nature. I then failed to completely exterminate these boring bugs and had to keep scratching my feet and body, but it wasn't too much to bear. I couldn't do anything more.

As always, when I run over 40 kilometers, my body starts to become a kimchi or a dead one. By the time I passed Fayetteville, a small mountain village in Tennessee, it had already begun to exceed 50 kilometers. Before I knew it, I could not see the endless horizon of the Great Plains, and now I entered the mountains of Appalachian, where I repeated going up and down everyday. My body was sobbing with a lot of fatigue, but Taegeukgi or the Korean flag on the cart was flying vigorously in the vivid wind that was rising in the middle of the forest. At that time, a girl jumps from the back even more powerfully than the Taegeukgi and breathes, asking, "Are you Korean?" Then her roommate, a Mexican student, comes after her, running hurriedly. The Mexican girl said that she had followed her friend to see what was going on, because her friend was so happy and ran to me. The Korean girl says she has never met a Korean in more than a year since she came to the town. The girl's face, who explains to her friend, "This is the man who runs across the continent pushing a cart like this.", was reddened with excitement.

I almost always wear the Taegeukgi on my chest, thigh or head when I go to a marathon. It's not the Taegeukgi that the nation gave me, but I always live proud of being a Korean. Because I live overseas, I feel more clearly that I'm Korean, so I can't help but feel more anxious about Korea. Animals and people alike have a protective coloring to keep up with their living conditions, but Koreans cannot erase the patterns of their people wherever they go. I try to change my name, my food and my lifestyle, but I find my Korean pattern becoming clearer and clearer.

When she saw Taegeukgi, she had a flash of attraction in her genes, so she rushed to me without thinking of anything. I was also glad to meet a Korean student in such a mountain village, and I saw her face was clearly reddened and my touching impression was amplified as the tremors in her language were delivered to me. We broke up after a short greeting, and I¡¯m moving back on my heavy feet, and then a car is coming after me from behind. I turned around and now even the Mexican friend's mother and twin sister came to take a picture together. The mother says she's so honored to meet me and asks me to go to dinner at one of her two restaurants asking the direction I'm going to run to. When I told her where I was going to, she said that I had already pased one of her shops and that there was another one in my direction.

Though not everyone else does, but I find some people take a pleasure in doing me a favor in order to relieve me of this ordeal even a little, which I alone bear all the burden fully. Over shoes and over boots, I asked if I could stay there overnight, saying that I didn¡¯t find a place to sleep. The mother called somewhere and said I could sleep there with her ex-husband living right next to the restaurant. Eventually I went to the restaurant for dinner and had a glass of corona beer that her ex-husband, Jose, welcomed and handed me out of the refrigerator. Having not been able to drink a glass of beer on this hard and long trip so far, I have now gained some leeway to drink a glass of beer with relief that I've almost done. I slept comfortably and had a breakfast and even packed a lunch box. This morning, a song came out of itself while running.

Right before that, someone stopped a car in front of me, got off, waited for me, and said that he had passed me and came back after watching the Korean national flag, Taegeukgi, adding that he had worked in the DMZ for a year. Unexpectedly, I met many former U.S. soldiers who worked in South Korea during the trip. They stopped by and greeted me. There were persons who paid for my meals at Chinese buffets and this gentleman also handed me over the dinner fee, saying, ¡°This is a sign of friendship.¡± Some say that they give me the meal fee because I look pitiful, but I think that

Americans respect and treat adventurers, and want to express even a little bit of sincerity. It's like we, Koreans, are assisting a wedding or a funeral. So I'm glad to take it because I don't think it's polite to refuse it.

Come to think of it, I've received a lot of help on the road so far. There were people who handed out drinks or food, people who donated money, and people who provided free bedding. Especially at a casino hotel, a manager commented that VIP guests had arrived, gave me a check for free. And at a sports shoe store, gave me a pair of sneakers for free, and even a bicycle shop the owner fixed my cart for free. When I asked for a bill after eating, the owner said someone had paid the bill in advance several times. Today too, I bought a cup of coffee and a small sandwich at the store. Grandmother, the owner, was packing me a bundle of apples.

I didn't meet many people on the street, but I didn¡¯t feel lonely because I was comforted and encouraged by those whom I met sometimes, and shared a look with respect with them. Many people came up to take pictures with me and some people gave me pens and paper to get my autographs. A lot of good things happen when I run fluttering a Taegeukgi.
