當(dāng)我跑步時(shí)，我在別處

Ronnie Goodman是一名五十多歲的流浪漢，他曾經(jīng)坐過(guò)牢、流過(guò)浪，甚至?xí)r刻與死亡做斗爭(zhēng)。然而服刑出獄后，Ronnie不曾放棄對(duì)美好生活的追求，他開(kāi)始打工、參加社區(qū)學(xué)校的美術(shù)課程，還有跑步。2014年，他成為舊金山馬拉松比賽最意想不到的參賽者。

When I'm running I feel like I'm not there, I feel like I am somewhere else.

On my run for maybe two hours, I'm a free person.

When people see me as a runner, they don't look at me as a person that is homeless.

Nothing can be worse than what I've been through. I feel like I’ve been to hell and back maybe four times. It was a battle, was a very long long battle.

When I was in prison I always dream about feeling①the wind and looking at the stars, feeling the beauty of life.

I just say, I need to learn how to make this life work.

My running goes hand-in-hand with who I am.It makes everything feel at peace. I really don't want too much. I just want to be healthy. I just enjoy this moment right here, everyone wants that.

當(dāng)我跑步時(shí)我覺(jué)得自己不在這里，我覺(jué)得我在其他地方。

在這奔跑的兩個(gè)小時(shí)里，我是一個(gè)自由的人。

當(dāng)人們看到我時(shí)，他們看到一個(gè)奔跑者，他們不會(huì)把我看作一個(gè)沒(méi)有家的流浪漢。

沒(méi)有什么可以比我經(jīng)歷過(guò)的更糟，我曾四次與死亡擦肩而過(guò)。那是一場(chǎng)戰(zhàn)斗，一場(chǎng)非常持久的戰(zhàn)斗。

當(dāng)我在監(jiān)獄時(shí)，我總是夢(mèng)想可以感受吹過(guò)的微風(fēng)，仰望星空，感受人生的美麗。

我對(duì)自己說(shuō)，我要學(xué)會(huì)不放棄自己的人生。

跑步讓我再次認(rèn)識(shí)到我自己，它讓我感受到一種平靜。我不需要太多，我只希望健康，并且享受這一時(shí)刻，像每一個(gè)奔跑者一樣。

① dream about doing sth. 夢(mèng)想做某事；做某事的夢(mèng)想；夢(mèng)想著做某事
