Cyclist Makes it Around the World in 78 Days
一名自行车骑手用78天环游世界
A long-distance cyclist smashed a world record this summer by cycling around the world in just under 79 days. Mark Beaumont previously set the world record in 2008 by cycling around the world in 194 days. Many cyclists have since broken that record, but Beaumont beat the most recent record by 44 days. The 34-year-old British cyclist left Paris on July 2 and arrived back at his starting point 78 days later. His personal goal was to finish the route in 80 days. The goal was inspired by Jules Verne’s classic novel, Around the World in 80 Days. Beaumont cycled for an average of 16 hours per day and only got about five hours rest each night.
一名长途自行车骑手今年夏天用不到79天的时间环游世界，远远超越了世界纪录。马克·博蒙特在2008年用194天环游世界，创下了世界记录。从那以后，有很多自行车骑手都打破了那个记录，但博蒙特比最近的记录少用了44天。这名34岁的英国自行车手于7月2日从巴黎出发，并在78天以后回到了出发地点。他的个人目标是要在80天内完成任务。这个目标是受到了儒勒·凡尔纳的经典小说《80天环游世界》的启发。博蒙特平均每天骑行16小时，每晚只能休息约5小时。
