赤脚大仙
1956年24岁时才开始练长跑的埃塞俄比亚运动员帆基拉,在罗马奥运会上赤着双脚以2小时15分16秒2的成绩获得马拉松金牌。人们惊异地称他为“赤脚仙人”。东京奥运会时贝基拉已经32岁,赛前二十几天又刚动过手术,但他却以2小时12分11秒2的成绩再次夺得马拉松金牌,并创奥运会新纪录,成为奥运史上第一个蝉联这个项目冠军的运动员。
The twenty-four years old Ethiopian long-distance running player Fan JiLa, began practising long-running in 1965. In Rome Olympic Games, he was barefoot. But he won the marathon gold medal with the time of two hours,fiften minutes, two seconds and two. People called him "the barefoot immortal". He was thirty-two years old when he appeared in the Tokyo Olympic Games. He had had an operation just now. However, he won the marathon gold medal again, with the time of two hours, twelve minutes eleven seconds and two, breaking the world's record, thus became the first person who continued to hold a title of champion in the marathon.
