My Dinh Runners aims to be in the top 10 of Hanoi night races
When finalizing the list of members participating in the group race at the MetaSports Marathon Hanoi Midnight 2023, My Dinh Runners (MDR) decided that the squad would not use foreign soldiers. This is a mandatory criterion when the club's management board selects members. "To connect members and celebrate the club's birthday, so whether we win or lose, we are still determined to keep the colors of the flag and colors of the shirt," said Luu Danh Quang, a representative of MDR.
As an important activity in the series of birthday events, the fourth group is quite a lot in the work of gathering and training runners. Quang said that many runners were initially shy, afraid that the results would not be good, affecting the overall performance. Therefore, the management board must do ideological work, encourage and relieve pressure for everyone. At the same time, the club spends time planning practice throughout from now until the tournament, calculating the drop point for all members to get the best results.
After watching the teams compete at the MetaSports Marathon Hanoi Midnight last year, My Dinh Runners found that the results of the members being even and good enough would lead to a higher overall result. "Teams that are overconfident and expect a few individuals to carry the whole team mostly fail," Danh Quang said.
Therefore, the representative of Hanoi divided the lesson plan into two directions: focusing on maintaining the performance for high-achieving runners and training and pulling the remaining people's achievements close to the above group. At long weekend runs, they divide runners into small groups, at the right pace to pull together. This is a kind of simulation, part of our game day strategy.
In addition, the club also checks fitness, considers the characteristics of work and family to plan a suitable exercise for each individual. "We are movement runners, so we need to balance practice with work and life. This is also what helps you feel comfortable when practicing. With this plan, we are confident that the team will achieve this goal. target," Danh Quang said.
There are not many stars in the running village, but My Dinh Runner's confidence is grounded because of the discipline of each individual. Team member Dao Ba Tuan set a goal of running 21km a day, to become the first Vietnamese to complete 365 consecutive half marathons. Up to now, he has maintained this regularly for 60 days.
In addition, names like Nguyen Dang Cong, Nguyen Thi Minh Thu also promise to create surprises because they converge the elements of physical strength, hard work and passion. The rest of the lineup is at sub4 to sub3:30 FM and sub2 to sub1:30 HM.

Team racing runner has started the first lessons in the lesson plan specially designed by the board of directors.
