Polished transcript:

Male Female

Well, I am an active person and I jog every day during the week. But I like to talk about a long walk I made about a week ago. At that time, as a routine, I started my journey at about 5:30. My destination was Central Park in the city center, which has fewer green trees and plants. I chose 5:30 as my starting time because the street at that time was really fresh, and the atmosphere made me feel comfortable. I usually walk alone, but that time my dad joined me on the journey. While we walked together, my dad and I had several conversations about my study conditions and some stories about our lives. As we walked, we enjoyed the fresh air and also met several cute animals like dogs and cats in the early morning. After we reached Central Park, we took a rest for about 5 to 10 minutes and then returned home. I think this experience with my dad was a great way to start a new day.
