52岁的史蒂芬·霍尔曼参加撒哈拉沙漠124.9英里(201公里)长跑。为这次年度沙漠马拉松比赛,他把途中要吃的食物全都塞进背包,重达25磅(11.3公斤)(包括他用擀面杖压碎以节省空间的薯片)。在100华氏度(约38摄氏度)的高温下,他艰难地爬过了一座座200英尺(约70米)高的沙丘,有时手脚并用。有天夜里,他独自遭遇沙暴,无法确定前进的方向是否正确时,他心想,“这就对了,这就是我参赛的原因。” Stephens Holman, 52, joins the 124.9-mile (201-kilometer) long-distance race in the Sahara. For the annual Desert Marathon, he stuffed all the food he wanted on his way to the backpack, weighing 25 pounds (11.3 kg) (including the crushing of his chips with a rolling pin to save space). At 100 degrees Fahrenheit (about 38 degrees Celsius), he struggled to climb a 200 foot (about 70 meters) high sand dunes, sometimes hand and foot use. One night he was hit by a sandstorm alone and could not determine if he was moving in the right direction. He thought, “That’s right, that’s why I entered the competition.” "
