2009-10-20来源:和谐英语

95岁高龄的Frank Levine是位运动健将。他说至今仍每隔一天跑2公里。他曾在美国宾夕法尼亚州东斯朝德思堡举行的美国户外大师田径锦标赛上打破美国纪录。而他自己却说这没什么,除非你是第一。

Levine先生年轻的时候曾获得过特轻量级业余拳击金手套赛冠军;虽然上了年纪,但他的竞技精神一如从前。他现在家住公寓的7层,不久前,一位客人来访,他还向对方问道,"你想走楼梯还是乘电梯呢?"

让我们一起来看看这位老人的运动风采。

At 95 years young Frank Levine is still finding his stride.

"I run 2 miles every other day." The Norristown resident is fit for any age, not to mention competitive and always training paid off at the U.S.A Track Master's Champignship this month.

"No one else is running so but myself but the rule yieling. I didn't merely hear them. I wasn't listen to them. I was speaking to myself, hey go, go,for a goal!"

Go! Frank did. In 15 minutes and 10 seconds he set the new world record for 95 to 99 year olds in the 5000-meter.

"I was spectacular inside feeling out this. I was really flying."

"This one is 1933." Medals paint the walls of this New York native's home."This is 1979, New York City, America."

Frank has run 18 marathons, the first at the age 65.

"It isn't impressive!? but if you do it, once you run two or three, you know you can do it."

The 1935 Golden Glove title holder always seem to know: he could do it. "The easiest person to follow in the world tensely is yourself, because he taught himself and did anything." And Frank does. He still got that fierce fight.Look on his face says it all: I'm not given up anytime soon.

"It's a challenge."
