This is a post combining my two passions: #running and #languagelearning, specifically #Korean 🇰🇷

A while ago I started doing my easy runs while listening to Korean sentences. The audio I uploaded here is a sample from @tomikorean Grammar Book 2

Advantages:
1️⃣ Running slow in zone 2 gets easy because the focus is not on running, but on repeating sentences. If at any point I don't have enough breath to repeat a sentence, it means that I need to slow down.

餅㵢
身㛪辰𤽸分㛪𧷺，
𠤩浽𠀧沉買渃𡽫。
硍湼默油𢬣几揑，
𦓡㛪刎𡨹𬌓𢚸𣘈。

Bánh Trôi
Thân em thời trắng phận em tròn,
Bảy nổi ba chìm mấy nước non.
Rắn nát mặc dầu tay kẻ nặn,
Nhưng em vẫn giữ tấm lòng son.

Bánh Trôi (Floating Cake)
My body is white; my fate, softly rounded,
rising and sinking like mountains in streams.
Whatever way hands may shape me,
at center my heart is red and true.

餅㵢（一種越南甜點，形似湯圓）
我身潔白而圓潤，
七沉三浮歷山川。
柔軟堅實任人捏，
我心依舊赤誠存。

Ever since my in-laws told me what they call asparagus in Chinese, I’m using that name for it in English too: dragon whiskers.
