生日,一般人都是在全家欢宴之中度过的,尤其是年逾古稀的老人。可有的人过得却非同寻常。最近美国俄勒冈州一位名叫约翰·弗里曼的老翁的70大寿就是以跑步的方式度过的。他在该州阿洛哈中学的跑道上跑了252圈共70英里,比他去年69岁生日那天跑69英里还提前了一小时。约翰·弗里曼在他生日那天的零点就来到了阿洛哈中学跑道的起跑线上。一直到第二天凌晨两点二十五分才跑完了70英里全程,共花时间26小时25分钟,其中包括两次时间较长和几次短暂的休息。弗里曼跑步的速度也并不算慢,约12分钟他便可跑一英里。每跑一圈他就把预先堆放在跑道边的小碎石踢掉一块以计算他所跑的圈数。『今年这次跑步比去年那次要轻松多了。』跑后弗里曼对别人说道。从62岁开始弗里曼就以这种与众不同的方式庆祝他的生日。那年多少岁,他就要跑多少英里。如此过生日,真可谓奇特也。
Birthday, most people spend the whole family holiday, especially the elderly over age. But others can be extraordinary but extraordinary. The 70th birthday of a man in the state of Oregon named John Freeman recently spent jogging. He landed 252 laps on a 70-mile runway at Aloha High School in the state, 69 hours ahead of his 69th birthday last year, an hour earlier. John Freeman arrived at the starting line of the Aloha High School runway at zero on his birthday. It took 26 hours and 25 minutes to finish 70 miles until 2:25 am the next day, including two longer breaks and several brief breaks. Freeman is not running too slow and he can run a mile in about 12 minutes. Every lap he kicks off a small piece of prestack stacked on the runway to calculate the number of laps he runs. "This year’s run was much easier than last year. After Freeman told others. From the age of 62, Freeman celebrates his birthday in such a distinctive way. How many miles he was going to run that year. So birthday, it can be described as peculiar too.
