In September 2020, our company organized “Liyang Team Building Activity”, the general manager announced a rule: the first team to reach the peak and recorded a video as evidence who would win a pair of gym shoes as the reward for each team member. Because it is difficult in defining the climbing performance, the general manager extended the award scope to all employees of our company, that is, from September 8 to October 8, who run up to the standard can receive the award, and the standard is: men who run 5 km within 30 minutes, and women who run 5 km within 35 minutes.
As soon as the activity was published, the Ding Talk became active which almost only working communication in usual. Everyone was enthusiastic and expressed to participate in the challenge, even some colleagues started to date each other to run instantly.

Running is more of a test of determination and endurance.
