跑步者：并不是只有热爱跑步的人

Don't ask me why. All I know is this: As much as I hate running, I love being a runner.

不要问我原因。我所知道的一切就是：我喜欢成为一名奔跑者和我讨厌跑步的程度相同。

There's some kind of camaraderie between people who spend more money each year on running shoes than on all their other shoes combined, and there's some fundamental similarity between people who can cross 10 miles without pausing.

比起购买其他所有的鞋子，每年花更多的钱买跑鞋的人们之间有着某种友谊；那些不用暂停就能跑完10英里的人们之间也有着根本的相似性。

On days that I run, I exert myself purely for exertion's sake. If you run too, you get why.

在我跑步的日子里，我只不过为了努力而努力。如果你也跑步，你会懂的。

When you're a runner, your people are the girls with hair elastics on their wrists and the boys with shorts shorter than yours. They might be better, faster or stronger than you, but you belong with them.

当你做奔跑者的时候，你的同伴会是那些手腕上有用来扎头发的橡皮筋的女孩子们以及那些穿着比你裤子还短的短裤的男孩子们。他们也许比你更好、更快或者更强壮，但你和他们是一起的。

It took me almost 10 years of plodding along at an 11-minute mile before I realized that I could call myself a runner, no matter how slow I go or how many races I lose.
