A man has completed a 5,000-mile solo run around the British coastline, during which he slept rough and spent less than three pounds a day.
一名男子独自一人沿英国海岸线完成了全程5000英里(约8000千米)的长跑,期间他几乎很少睡觉,每天的花销还不到3英镑。
Gloucester-born Wayne Russell has run the equivalent of about 200 marathons since he began the charity challenge in 2015.
韦恩·拉塞尔是英国格洛斯特郡人,他从2015年开始进行这项全程相当于约200段马拉松的慈善长跑挑战赛。
The run has raised 28,600 pounds for the Superhero Foundation, which helps families in need of medical treatments.
这项活动共为超级英雄协会募集到了28600英镑的资金,用于帮助需要接受医疗服务的家庭。
On completing the challenge, Russell said, “Having spent the best part of the last year alone, running into such an incredible reception was mind-blowing.”
拉塞尔在完成挑战后表示:“我自己一个人度过了过去一年中的绝大部分时光,能跑步完成如此非凡的事业,我感到兴奋不已。”
Russell said the trip was inspired by the death of his sister, who died aged 35, and who dedicated her life to charity.
拉塞尔有一个35岁时离世的姐姐。他表示,姐姐生前曾致力于慈善事业,正是姐姐的去世令自己做出这样的决定。
As Spiderman’s Uncle Ben once famously said, “With great power comes great responsibility”, and few responsibilities are greater than that of being a father. But as you can see from these hilarious pictures, some dads take that responsibility more “seriously” than others.
正如《蜘蛛侠》里班叔叔的名言,“能力越大,责任越大”,而没有什么比做好一名父亲的责任更重大的了。但从这些令人捧腹的照片中可以看出,有些父亲在履行这一职责时比其他人更加“认真”。
This list of dad fails is sure to make you laugh regardless of whether you’re a parent or not. But if you’re a mom then, well, you might want to check to make sure your husband isn’t drawing eyebrows on the baby or sizing it up for a watermelon helmet...
无论你是否已为人父母,这一连串的父亲不靠谱的举动必定会让你捧腹大笑。但是,如果你是一名母亲,那么你也许要查看下你的丈夫有没有在给孩子画眉毛,或者在为他建造西瓜头盔……
