美国洛杉矶经营不动产的商人加里·莫里斯最近宣布,他将主办一项距离为两万五千英里的环球长跑比赛。该项比赛的时间为一年,从1985年元旦开始,到该年年底结束。比赛路线是从坦桑尼亚东北部的乞力马札罗山出发、途经非洲、中东、中国、日本、苏联、北美洲、中美洲、最后到达南美洲的秘鲁。 Gary Morris, a Los Angeles-based real estate-based businessman, recently announced he will host a long-distance race around 25,000 miles. The competition takes one year, starting from the New Year’s Day in 1985 and ending by the end of the year. The race starts from Kilimanjaro in northeastern Tanzania via Peru, the Middle East, China, Japan, the Soviet Union, North and Central America, and finally to South America.
