How many foreigners attended 1998 New York City Marathon race?
New York—If New York actually is, as some people say, the capital of the world, proof could be found at this year’s New York City Marathon. Over one third of the 32, 000 runners in this year’s marathon were foreign entrants, according to the race organizers.
Steve Boland, a spokesman for the New York Road Runners Club, said 11, 000 runners from 94 different countries decided it was worth the trip to run the 42.16 kilometer course through the city on Sunday.
The race was won by John Kagwe of Kenya, while Franca Fiacconi became the first Italian to win the women’s division.
" There are a lot of hills, especially in the last four miles. They can really prove themselves here, " said Edgar Cuesta, one of hundreds of volunteer translators for the race. Cuesta came from Bogota, Columbia, to help translate for runners.
Chdean runner Victor Belman, 41, who finished his second New York marathon on Sunday, said, "I think it’s the people... They stand on the sides all along the course and cheer you on. It gives you motivations. "
Many take part despite major disabilities, including 3-year-old Norwegian runner Ketil Moe, who had a double lung transplant last year.
选项
A、New York, the so-called capital of the world.
B、The difficulties they met.
C、People from their own country.
