A man has completed a 5,000-mile (8,000km) solo run around the British coastline, during which he has slept rough and spent less than 3 pound a day.

近日,一名男子独自一人沿英国海岸线完成了全程5000英里(约8000千米)的长跑,在此期间他几乎很少睡觉,每天的花销还不到3英镑。
Gloucester-born Wayne Russell, 34, has run the equivalent of about 200 marathons since he began the charity challenge on 6 September last year.
今年34岁的韦恩·拉塞尔是英国格洛斯特郡人,他从去年就开始进行这项全程相当于200段马拉松的慈善长跑挑战赛。
The run has raised about 28,600 pounds for the Superhero Foundation, which helps families in need of medical treatments.
这项长跑活动共为超级英雄协会募集到了28600英镑的资金,用于帮助需要接受医疗服务的家庭。

On completing the challenge, Mr Russell was greeted by a large crowd of friends, family and well-wishers.

在拉塞尔完成挑战后,他的朋友、家人和许多热心人纷纷对其表示祝贺。
He said: "I'm absolutely overwhelmed, to be honest. Having spent the best part of the last year alone, running into such an incredible reception was mind-blowing."
他说:“说真的,我太感动了。我自己一个人度过了过去一年中的绝大部分时光,能跑步完成如此非凡的事业,我感到兴奋不已。”
Mr Russell said the trip was inspired by the death of his sister, who died aged 35, and who "dedicated her life to charity".
拉塞尔表示,本次旅程是受到了于35岁去世的姐姐的影响。他的姐姐生前曾“全身心投入到慈善事业中”。
"I want to thank every single person that donated, shared and supported me and my run," he added.
他补充说道:“对每一位捐赠的好心人,对每一位关注并支持我长跑事业的人,我都想说声谢谢。”
"We've raised more than 25,000 pounds for an incredible cause, and I just can't imagine a more perfect end. I just hope I've made my family proud. I wish my sister could have seen this."
“我们为一项非凡的事业筹集到了超过25万英镑的资金,再没有比这更好的结果了。我希望家人以我为豪,我希望姐姐的在天之灵能看到这一切。”
