当我在4月11日参加游泳比赛时,我的想法经历了我的脑海。第一个注意到戈尔水上运动中心的游泳教练Meagan McCabe的侮辱,她的两个儿子在背景中咯咯笑。
A few thoughts passed through my mind when I was corralled into joining a swimming race on April 11.
当我在4月11日参加游泳比赛时,我的想法经历了我的脑海。
The first was noticing the indignity of Meagan McCabe, the swim coach at the Gore Aquatic Centre, and her two sons chuckling in the background.
第一个注意到戈尔水上运动中心的游泳教练Meagan McCabe的侮辱,她的两个儿子在背景中咯咯笑。
Much like Apollo Creed, they had everything in their favour. Regular training, an iron-like grip on the pool, the cultish vibe of the swim team, every resource at their disposal.
就像阿波罗信条一样,他们对一切都有支持。定期的训练,像铁台上的铁一样的抓地力,游泳队的邪教氛围,每个资源都可以使用。
They laughed at me, not knowing the truth. They were unleashing a lion.
他们嘲笑我,不知道真相。他们正在释放狮子。
You, reader, may think I am just a simple journalist, spending my time sharing the stories of the community, dedicating myself to the people of the Gore district.
您,读者可能认为我只是一个简单的记者,花时间分享社区的故事,将自己献给戈尔地区的人们。
But in the past I was a star athlete, the year 11 swimming champion, who would have won every swimming cup had I not been robbed on two occasions by false starts, courtesy of the physical education teacher.
但是过去,我是一名明星运动员,是11年级的游泳冠军,如果我没有两次被虚假的起点抢劫,他会赢得每个游泳杯。
Of course, I’m out of shape.
当然,我不舒服。
I haven’t touched a pool in three years.
我已经三年没有碰到游泳池了。
My last official swim training was 16 years ago, before I was kicked off the swim squad for delinquency.
我上次正式的游泳训练是16年前,然后我被踢出游泳小队以进行犯罪。
Like Rocky Balboa, the cards are against me.
像洛基·巴尔博亚(Rocky Balboa)一样,卡片对我不利。
But hearing the doubts of the swim team, their taunts, the way I have been written off makes me want to turn back the pages to another story — a champion, rising like the phoenix.
但是听到游泳队的怀疑,他们的嘲讽,我被注销的方式使我想将页面倒回另一个故事 - 冠军,像凤凰城一样崛起。
On April 11, I will be competing as the underdog against professional swimmers, in a 50m freestyle Splash ’n’ Dash charity swimming event.
4月11日,我将参加50m的自由泳'N'Dash慈善游泳比赛,成为对阵专业游泳运动员的失败者。
Some have questioned why only 50m as a showing of swimming prowess, asking why we don't go further distances.
有些人质疑为什么只有50m作为游泳能力的展示,问我们为什么不走更远的距离。
I can only point to the fact everyone knows who Usain Bolt is, and nobody knows who won the marathons at the Olympics.
我只能指出每个人都知道Usain Bolt是谁的事实,没有人知道谁在奥运会上赢得了马拉松比赛。
Speed is the only thing that matters to me, and the world. Nobody cares if you can go a certain pace over a long distance.
速度是对我和世界都重要的唯一一件事。没有人关心您是否可以在很长的距离内走一定的步伐。
My training has already begun, with my bench press skyrocketing and my deadlift a truly staggering showcase of human strength and power.
我的训练已经开始,我的卧推飞涨,我的硬拉是人类力量和力量的真正惊人的展示。
I have been to one swim training, but it’s a little bit too difficult so I’m probably going to try avoid swimming until, like, the week beforehand, so I don't get too sore.
我去过一次游泳训练,但是这太困难了,所以我可能会尝试避免游泳,直到事先进行一周,所以我不会太酸痛。
This may seem counter-intuitive, but just as a six-pack is not built in the gym but the kitchen, a swimming race isn’t won in the pool but in the weights room.
这似乎是违反直觉的,但是就像在健身房内建造的六块束缚一样,厨房也没有在游泳池里赢得游泳比赛,而是在庄重室。
This match, this fight, is for dignity in the face of adversity.
这场比赛,这场斗争是为了面对逆境而尊严。
It’s standing up to a world saying "no, they have been training for years while you’ve been eating Snickers bars and potato chips, you can’t possibly win".
它站在一个世界上说:“不,他们一直在吃窃笑酒吧和薯片,您已经不可能赢了多年。”
It’s about fighting for the little guy, who just so happens to be the biggest and strongest person who has ever stepped foot in the Gore Aquatic Centre.
这是关于为这个小家伙而战,这个小家伙恰好是有史以来踏入戈尔水上运动中心的最大,最坚强的人。
On April 11, I will show the world just how much I am like Rocky Balboa in the second film, not in the first one, when he loses.
在4月11日,我将向世界展示我在第二部电影中的洛基·巴尔博亚(Rocky Balboa),而不是在他输掉的第一部电影中。
