Oh ! My
God Story NO. 56
My jogging
We have Central Park here in New York City.
This famous park is very spacious and beautiful.
This park is located right behind my apartment.
It will take about five minutes by walking.
There is a jogging course in the park.
The course runs inside the park.
Many people are jogging every day.
One day, I decided to run for my health.
I wear a white pants, a blue jacket, a pair of red socks
and a pair of leather
black shoes.
What a combination!
I run at night, so it doesn't matter.
So here I go.
I run to the entrance of the park and come
back.
This jogging is about five minutes.
That's enough for me.
This is my way of jogging.
I told my musician friend about my jogging.
He said smiling,
"Nishitani, every jogger starts to run
from the entrance of the
Central Park."
"You finish there."
