Jogging is a truly healthy activity for both physical and mental health; we all know this already. For some people, it comes naturally. For others, it’s either a struggle not worth contemplating or just a little, well, boring.
慢跑是一項真正有益于身心健康的運動;我們都已經(jīng)知道了。對有些人來說，這是自然而然的。對另一些人來說，這要么是一場不值得思考的斗爭，要么就是有點無聊。
Without a jogging buddy or any element of competition, how do you spice up your runs? Well, there are now plenty of apps that you can download, that keep track of things like speed, distance, heart rate, calories burned and even challenges against other users to keep you motivated.
沒有一個慢跑伙伴或任何競爭的元素，你如何為你的跑步增添情趣?現(xiàn)在有很多應(yīng)用程序可以下載，它們可以記錄速度、距離、心率、燃燒的卡路里，甚至是挑戰(zhàn)其他用戶來保持你的動力。
San Franciscan Lenny Maughan doesn’t have any problems with motivation though, he loves to run! He uses the social fitness app Strava to create amazing pieces of ‘running art;’ carefully planning his route beforehand to run in the pattern of a certain image with the streets of San Fran as his canvas.
舊金山人倫尼 Maughan在動力方面沒有任何問題，但是他喜歡跑步!他使用社交健身應(yīng)用Strava創(chuàng)作了一些令人驚嘆的“跑步藝術(shù)”作品;他事先仔細(xì)規(guī)劃好路線，以舊金山的街道為畫布，按照特定的圖像模式跑步。
Lenny sometimes has to run incredible distances – his ‘Frida Kahlo’ masterpiece covered 29 miles and took almost 6 hours to complete – all the while being careful not to make any mistakes. A single wrong turn can ruin the whole piece!
倫尼有時不得不跑令人難以置信的距離——他的杰作《弗里達(dá)·卡羅》走了29英里，花了近6個小時才完成——同時他一直小心翼翼地避免犯任何錯誤。一個錯誤的轉(zhuǎn)彎就能毀掉整幅畫!
“You can’t see the lines drawn until after you finish your run,” Lenny told SFGATE. “So it’s such a joyful feeling when you put in all of that work and you finally finish and get to see what you envisioned at the end.”
倫尼在接受SFGATE采訪時表示:“在你跑完全程之前，你是看不到這些線的。所以當(dāng)你把所有的工作都投入進(jìn)去，最終完成任務(wù)，看到自己的設(shè)想時，會有一種非?？鞓返母杏X。”
“San Francisco is my canvas. I use the streets as a framework for what I want to do, find shapes, and make it work. Kind of like how little kids look up at the clouds.”
“舊金山是我的畫布。我用街道作為我想做的事情的框架，找到形狀，并使它工作。有點像小孩子仰望天空的樣子。”
Lenny has been doing his running art for over 3 years now and has created 30 unique designs. Far from the stereotypical image of an artist sitting patiently at an easel for days on end, painstakingly applying the gentlest of brush strokes, this very modern type of art is as exhausting physically as it is mentally!
倫尼從事跑步藝術(shù)已有3年多的時間，并創(chuàng)造了30個獨特的設(shè)計。與藝術(shù)家連續(xù)數(shù)日耐心地坐在畫架前，煞費苦心地用最柔和的筆觸作畫的老套形象截然不同，這是一種身體和精神上非常現(xiàn)代的藝術(shù)形式。
