驰骋大漠,饮马长江

— 访2013级MBA学生参加亚沙赛有感

 

在刚刚结束的“亚太地区商学院沙漠挑战赛”中,长江MBA13级同学在9级大风中完成3天70公里的沙漠征程,达成100%完赛率,同时他们也感受良多。

 

 

我来到这里就是挑战自我,挑战不可能——2013级MBA学生陈世平

 

迈出起点的第一步便是挑战自我的开端:开始的一切都很轻松,但是当风速增加、坡度加陡,身体愈发疲劳,我原本兴奋的心情也跌倒了谷底。

“尤其是当强风吹得我侧移10多厘米时,爬坡时风大的眼睛无法睁开时,心中只有一个想法:我为什么主动来找虐。”幸运的是,在最后一天跨过终点的时候他找到了答案:“人的一生就像沙漠挑战赛一样,只有当你主动迎接生命中的挑战,你才能获得其他人无法企及的成功和宝贵的人生经历。这也是我选择长江商学院的原因——主动寻求挑战。”

 

"70km Desert Challenge? Easy."——2013级MBA学生Jeremy Solomons

 

今年亚沙赛长江共有3名外籍学生参赛,这在众多参赛的商学院中并不多见。当问到2013级MBA英国籍学生Jeremy Solomons参赛后的感触时,他显得十分兴奋。

"There was blood, sweat, and tears, yet the 12 hour sleeper train from Beijing West to Alxa, was to be the start of a new and challenging experience for most, if not, all of us. Despite extreme weather conditions from the scorching hot sun to punishing sand storms, not to mention the unforgiving terrain, made only more arduous due to days of heavy rain prior to our arrival, the Tengger Desert was no match for the determination and persistence of CKMBA13. 

Our close-knit bond, established by studying so intensely together over the past 8 months, was demonstrated in our solid team work and self-sacrifice when it came to helping others complete the challenge. On the first and toughest day of the hike, there was to be no respite, since we would be in another race against time to set up our camp and get warm, before the weather took a further turn for the worst.

On Day 2, the wake up call at sunrise made some question their Labour Day holiday choice, however, watching the celebratory fire lanterns against the sparkling night sky, was enough to boost morale and made even the third and final day an absolute pleasure and once in a lifetime story to look back on.: 70km Desert Challenge? Easy."
