My face was the night sky and my eyes shone limpidly like two stars twinkling in the night sky. If my face was a sign of having endured the hot desert or wind of the Great Plains, my eyes were a gleam of will that overcame fear, all kinds of difficulties and loneliness. There existed light and darkness in my body at the same time. The solitude of the dry desert and the passion of the blazing sun melted and existed together. Extreme pain and pleasure mingled together and danced. Pain and pleasure, like a pair of figure skaters, used to hold hands sometimes, hug, circle around one another, sometimes far apart, and play with each one's wonderful performances.

The road that I¡¯ve run was certainly mostly paved one , but a desert of hardship and loneliness, and a forest of patience and perseverance. The road was a mountain range of rough challenges and a great plain of bold courage. It was a river in which calm flows smoothly before danger and fear, and a swamp of reproach for recklessness. It was also a sea of recklessness and challenge, riding on a small boat across rough waves and stormy oceans. It was also a high sky, on which excitement and fear became the wind and cloud and flew.

After running across the Delaware River and into New Hope, New Jersey, over one hill, I looked up the sky over Manhattan which was filled with the red glow of the rising morning sun. As Manhattan gets closer, I can feel the pulse of my heart beating dynamically. I felt like a salmon returning to its mother's river from the distant sea. It is a fluttering step of the pregnant bride going to parent¡¯s home in order to give birth to a new life. I can't say it's better, but I'm beginning to see things one by one that are familiar. Even the smell is familiar, too. That would be the strength of the salmon to search for its mother¡¯s river so hard and fiercely. I am reacting furiously to the subtle repercussions of people who would welcome me at New York, where I have lived for 26 years. Now this is the path of returning home with glory , after discharging all the old bad energy of the body to the sky and the ground and refilling with new and vibrant energy.

Korean marathon club friends from New Jersey accompanied me on my last step. Running next to me, Han Young-seok says, "MK, that's great! You did a big job!" , and he raises up his thumb.

"In fact, we had a bet after you left N.Y, MK!¡°

"So who won? The winner must be a jackpot!"

"Nobody won.¡°

¡°Why?¡±

¡°Because there was nobody for the completion.¡±

¡°......???¡±

¡°Ahn Jung-hwan for a week. I for two weeks. Nobody for more than one month. You did really great job!"

"What's the big deal? Anyone can do it. Physically, everyone who runs can do it, but it's a mental problem only. It's because they don't try! You runs better than me, don't you?¡°

"Not everyone has strong mental faculties like you.¡°

"Anyone can do it, only if he is ready to go through all the trouble.¡°

"MK! Will you do it again if you are told to do it again?¡°

"No, I jumped in without knowing it, but I don't think I'll ever get rid of that fear off if I knew it before!¡°

I had no choice but to be humble in spite of my great work, because I learned humility from Mother Nature. It was all the more so because I did my best, not because I did it with special abilities.

Before leaving New York, we had gathered at Kwon Hye-soon's restaurant. It was a kind of the farewell going-to-war ceremony for me. I had been personally and sporadically informed of my reckless travel plans, but I should formally announce them and get their consent of my plan. Though I could not get the consent, I should get the acquiesce from them and avoid the blame. Knowing that my will was determined, they did not readily agree with me on this foolish trip, but they wished me a safe trip over a drink.

My ancestor must have been King Gwanggaeto running in the Manchurian plain or one of his brave generals. The breath of my ancestor's breath gave rise to a desire to escape the suffocating situation, sometimes enveloping me. That uncontrollable desire made me nervous, so I said I had to leave for this journey. Even if I would come back in a week, I asked them to let me go because I was running the best marathon of my life. Kwon Hye-soon asked them to pay for the food fully and gathered money and gave me the collected money and hugged me firmly and clapped her hands for my courage. Running through New Jersey in the rain at the age of 59, I made a splendid transformation believing that I could do confidently what I dreamed vaguely and imagined. At last, I was able to change what I vaguely wanted to do into what I really wanted to do and put it in a box of my mind. Come to think of it, there were quite a few things in my bucket list, too. Now I've changed. From a weak human being who could not do anything, I became the first Asian to run a transcontinental marathon by myself without others¡¯ help, and succeeded in transforming from a worm into a yellow butterfly who could fly in the sky. There is definitely something in common among perspiration all over the body, red persimmons hanging at persimmon trees at Haksan, Gangneung on a lonely autumn day, and dreams ripening in my heart. They are all the result of hard work and long endurance.

It rained for two days when I entered and ran in New Jersey. Running in the spring rain has another charm. Rain dampens the earth as well as it wets the heart. I'm running in the rain, feeling the excitement of getting close to New York, then a police car comes after me, turning on the emergency light. The policeman is very sorry to interrupt me in running, but someone reported to the police that somebody¡¯s carrying a baby stroller in the rain. Before he said he was sorry, I was reading in his eyes sorry for accidentally cutting into my passionate transcontinental marathon running. I saw how clumsy the police were about saying sorry. Some one seemed to report it as infantile abuse, but I had to shake my head to the American spirit of reporting. Though a police officer or sheriff has been called in by residents, and they're on the scene, they would rather encourage me who is on the great adventure and ask me to take pictures with them, but it is still a hassle to meet them.

Entering Westfield, I took off my shoes and socks to rest in the park in Rotary for a while. A passer-by asks with interest how many kilometers I ran. I say that I ran 5,200 kilometers, so he raised his thumb and asked me to show my feet. Maybe he seemed to imagine Park Ji-sung's feet or Kim Yuna's. But my feet are as clean as those of a person who has done nothing. That's because I was not lazy in keeping my feet clean with the wet tissue even when I couldn't take a shower.

The feeling of running in the rain toward Union City located at the mouth of the Hudson River and facing Manhattan is that a salmon returning to the tributary of the river which it left, and then running up to the waterfall. How strong, intense and desperate the salmons are when they are kicking down the dripping water and climbing the waterfall with their final strength. How can they do so without desperate longing for their hometown? We can't explain it without the salmon's desperate task of spouting out their eggs, the seeds of new life, into the world.

Instead of a big tree forest, now I can see the wood of the Manhattan buildings in the distance. Yes, it is a cement forest that has only the law of jungle but no warmth or compassion. Some kids spend tens of thousands of dollars for prom party, but hungry kids coexist there because they don't have the money to buy hamburgers. Now, I will soon arrive at Felisade Park, New Jersey, home to many Koreans after Newark and Red Ford. It is just around the corner of the George Washington Bridge. I came running across many large and small bridges to cross this bridge. The sky in early June was fresher and greener than ever.

Running through the America Continent, away from the loneliness and regret of moment, I saw new possibilities sometimes beyond the realm of the body, sometimes beyond the realm of the mind, sometimes at the edge of the realm of God. Everywhere I went, the scenery was different, the people¡¯s minds were different, and the energy flowing on the earth was different. Running along that 5,200-kilometer road, I had time for self-reflection, and enough time to contemplate and console myself. In fact, I started the marathon out of physical interest. But as I ran, I began to indulge in the mysterious world that marathons bring me. That¡¯s the world that the more energy I lose, the more lucid I become. The opening of all the pores of the skin brought me home the blessing of self-existing.

I had the best vacation through many ups and downs and severe hardships. It was a journey of enlightenment that made me realize that the word "best" exists in the worst possible condition. Life will still be vague and opaque, but my two eyes staring at it will be comforted, looking what exist beyond the way I ran. I'm still depressed and maybe unable to be right, but I'm not going to be flustered any longer, blaming myself for my dull body for playing the monotonous mass games that society wants. It was a meeting of hope that 59-year-old man like me could be as creative as he could be and could be the best in some ways .

My thin body, like a dry branch in the middle of winter, made my running sound. The sweat of my running made the song of unification sprout, and prayed earnestly for a peaceful world as a sound, and comforted those who had lost hope as a sound. Running is the most primitive body movement. I wrote the epic with that simple gesture. I made the biggest stage on the ground and performed actively with that terrible gesture. The gesture was a ritual dance filled with my earnest desire.
