法國男子陽臺跑7小時馬拉松
One runner didn't let the French government's order to remain indoors prevent him from training for a marathon amid the coronavirus pandemic.
在新冠肺炎疫情期間，一名法國跑步愛好者沒有因爲法國政府的居家命令而停止馬拉松訓練。
Last week, Elisha Nochomovitz, a 32-year-old furloughed restaurant worker, ran the length of a marathon -- on his 23-foot long balcony.
上週，暫時休假在家的32歲餐廳員工以利沙·諾科莫維茨在家中23英尺長（約合7米）的陽臺上跑完了全程馬拉松（42.195公里）。
And he did it in six hours and 48 minutes, a personal record nearly double that of his previous finish time.
他用6小時48分鐘的時間完成了這次“陽臺馬拉松”，是他之前全程馬拉松個人記錄時長的近兩倍。
"My only pleasure is running, no matter what the time," Nochomovitz, who lives in the French city of Balma near Toulouse, told cnn.
“我唯一的樂趣就是跑步，不管什麼時候，”住在法國圖盧茲附近巴爾馬市的諾科莫維茨告訴美國有線新聞網。
He dedicated his run to medical staff working through this pandemic, who he feels are "doing an extraordinary job."
他把這次“陽臺馬拉松”獻給了在新冠肺炎疫情中工作的醫務人員，他覺得他們“所做的工作意義非凡”。
Although Nochomovitz has run 36 marathons, he said his balcony marathon was the most challenging.
儘管諾科莫維茨已經跑了36次馬拉松，他說這次“陽臺馬拉松”最具挑戰性。
Due to the short length of the balcony, Nochomovitz was unable to gain any momentum or speed as he had to constantly turn back and forth. He said he ran about 3,000 laps.
由於陽臺很短，諾科莫維茨無法增加動力或加快速度，因爲他必須不斷地來回轉圈。他說他跑了大約3000圈。
Luckily, Nochomovitz said his girlfriend was there to support him, feeding him M&M's and Coca Cola to help him refuel as he ran.
幸運的是，諾科莫維茨說他的女朋友在一邊支持他，給他M&M's巧克力豆和可口可樂，幫助他在跑步時補充能量。
Though his balcony is nothing like the streets of Barcelona, where he was supposed to run the marathon on March 15 before it got canceled, Nochomovitz said the experience was worthwhile. Some people, he said, even reached out to say they were inspired by him.
雖然他的陽臺與巴塞羅那的街道完全不同，但諾科莫維茨說，這次經歷很有意義。他原定於3月15日在巴塞羅那參加馬拉松比賽，但比賽取消了。他說，有些人甚至主動聯繫他，說受到了他的鼓舞。
French Prime Minister Édouard Philippe announced on March 14 that the country would be closing all places that are not essential to French living, which includes restaurants, cafes and clubs.
法國總理愛德華·菲利普於3月14日宣佈，法國將關閉所有“非必需”公共場所，包括餐館、咖啡館和俱樂部。
