Man runs ‘Boston Marathon’ by doing 1,098 laps on NYC roof一名男子在纽约屋顶上跑了1098圈，完成了波士顿马拉松”Stephen England ran the Boston Marathon on Monday — by jogging around the rooftop of his Manhattan apartment building more than 1,000 times.

周一，斯蒂芬·英格兰参加了波士顿马拉松比赛——在他位于曼哈顿的公寓楼顶慢跑了1000多次。

Initially scheduled for Monday, April 20, the historic race was moved to Sept.

14 due to the ban on gatherings necessitated by the coronavirus.

It has taken place every year since 1897, even during the World Wars.

该比赛原定于4月20日(周一)举行，但由于冠状病毒禁止集会活动，比赛推迟到了9月14日。

自1897年以来每年都会举办这种活动，甚至在世界大战期间也是如此。

England, a 40-year-old general contractor who has run 90 marathons and ultramarathons, was committed to honoring his race entry — hoofing it for 26.

2 miles all while adhering to stay-at-home guidelines.

现年40岁的英格兰是一名总承包商，他参加过90次马拉松和超级马拉松比赛。

他严格遵守了自己的参赛要求，坚持在家跑步26.

2英里。

The Boston Marathon is a huge part of my life,” England, 40, tells The Post.

I’ve done it seven times and was there during the 2013 bombing.

So, as soon as it got postponed, I knew I had to do something to honor Marathon Monday.

”波士顿马拉松赛是我生活中重要的一部分，”40岁的英格兰告诉 华盛顿邮报　。

我参加过7次，2013年爆炸案发生时我就在那里。

所以，比赛一推迟，我就知道我必须做点什么来纪念这场马拉松比赛。

”To accomplish the feat, England calculated the distance he could run around the perimeter of his 38-by-25-foot rooftop in South Harlem, determining the maximum space he could use given various planters and other obstructions.

The result: he could log 126 feet per lap, so 1,098 laps would equal 26.

2 miles.

为了完成这一壮举，英格兰计算了他在南哈莱姆区(South Harlem)的38乘25英尺屋顶的周长，计算出了他能跑多远，并确定了在各种各样的花盆和其他障碍物的情况下，他能利用的最大空间。

结果是:他每圈可以跑126英尺，所以1098圈相当于26.

2英里。

He started at 6 a.

m.

Monday, after setting up a custom aid station with water bottles, energy gels and even a finisher’s medal on a table.

Five hours, 29 minutes and 37 seconds later, he crossed a makeshift finish line — a far cry from his best Boston Marathon time of two hours and 45 minutes during 2018’s notoriously rainy, windy event.

周一早上6点，他用水瓶、能量胶、甚至桌子上的一枚奖牌搭起了一个自定义的救助站，然后出发了。

5小时29分37秒后，他冲过了一条临时的终点线，这与他在2018年波士顿马拉松比赛中创造的最佳成绩——2小时45分钟的成绩相去甚远。

The 2:45 personal record, or PR, means England’s average minute-per-mile pace is a speedy 6:17 — but Monday’s rooftop run was significantly slower, at about 13 minutes per mile.

One reason: he loped around 4,392 turns, which tend to slow runners down and shave seconds off total times.

There also just wasn’t enough distance to gain any momentum, which also stymied his running watch.

2分45秒的个人记录，或者说PR，意味着英格兰的平均每英里速度是6分17秒，但是周一的屋顶跑要慢得多，大约每英里13分钟。

其中一个原因是:他一共转了4392弯，每个弯都不得不减速导致总用时变长。

还有就是没有足够的距离来加速冲刺，这也妨碍了他的成绩。

My GPS was confused by my marathon antics,” adds England.

After lap 999, my screen displayed ‘ – – – .

’ So, I had to count the last 98 manually.

”我的GPS被我马拉松式的滑稽动作搞糊涂了，”英格兰补充道。

在999圈之后，我的GPS屏幕显示‘- - - - -’，所以我不得不手动计算最后的98圈。
