A couple of weeks into(在……开始几周后) her record-breaking 2,000km run through Europe’s alps, Sophie Woods feared she might die. Woods and her photographer had just scaled(攀登) a peak in Switzerland, when a severe thunderstorm engulfed(吞没，笼罩) them.
在打破纪录的穿越欧洲阿尔卑斯山脉的2000公里奔跑开始几周后，索菲·伍兹曾担心自己可能会死。伍兹和她的摄影师刚刚爬上一座瑞士的山峰，一场猛烈的雷暴就笼罩了他们。
“The lightning was going off(（闪电）爆发，响起) around us ... there was nowhere to shelter in place(就地避难) [and] all the rocks around us were conductive(导电的),” Woods tells the Guardian, from her home in Andorra, nearly two weeks after she became the fastest person ever to run the Via Alpina, a rollercoaster(过山车般的，起伏的) network of alpine trails through eight countries.
“闪电在我们周围不断闪现……我们无处可躲，而且周围的岩石都是导电的，”伍兹在安道尔的家中告诉《卫报》，此时她成为史上跑完阿尔卑斯之路最快的人已近两周。阿尔卑斯之路是一条蜿蜒穿过八个国家的阿尔卑斯山径网络。
“I was slightly(略微，稍微) concerned that one of us was going to die,” she says. “I ran so fast to get out of that(逃离那里).”
“我有点担心我们中的一个人会死，”她说。“我跑得飞快，想逃离那里。”
