Mr Babcock began knitting and long-distance running, separately, three years ago. He decided to merge the two activities since both were a little boring and he thought it would be a 'fun challenge'.

三年前，巴布科克先生开始织毛线、长跑，但两件事并不同时进行。当他开始觉得有点无聊时，他决定将两件事合二为 一，并认为这会是“一个有趣的挑战”。

Over the years Mr Babcock has developed a system for how he knits while running.

数年以来，巴布科克先生已经练就了织毛钱兼长跑的运动方法。

To protect himself from possible injury he uses plastic needles and attaches a stopper at the end so the scarf doesn't fall off.

为了预防可能出现的危险，他使用的是塑料编织针，而且在末端夹上了夹子，这样围巾就不会从针上掉下来。

He's only fallen once while running and knitting, and that was early on when he wasn't paying attention to a pothole.

他边织边跑的过程中只有一次跌倒了，那是他刚起跑不久，没有注意到地上有坑。

He keeps yarn in a fanny pack and only uses acrylic materials since natural fibers absorb sweat.

他把毛线装在腰包里，看起来有些滑稽，而且他只织腈纶毛线，因为这种天然材质更吸汗。

Mr Babcock, like prior-record holder Ms Hewer, ran Saturday's race to benefit an Alzheimer's disease foundation.
