网报道,援引nzherald消息,新西兰最大的长跑活动,Round the Bays于18日举行。活动吸引了近七万人参加,其中包括轮椅运动员等。大家从Quay Street出发,跑过8.4千米,最后到达St Heliers Bay。率先到达终点的是来自奥克兰运动运俱乐部的Jono Jackson,共耗时28分4秒。第二名成绩与Jono不相上下,是Tony Payne,耗时28分16秒。
13岁的Sahara Adams对该活动的举行感到非常兴奋。她作为Make-A-Wish的获得者,作为比赛正式发令员,引导七万民众在早上9点30分冲出起跑点,开始了比赛。
Sahara目前正在接受白血病治疗。最近,因Make-A-Wish New Zealand的帮助,她还终于见到了自己的偶像Taylor Swift。
Round the Bays活动由奥克兰慢跑俱乐部在1972年创立。在第一年,该活动吸引了1200名参与者。
