當我跑步時，我在別處

Ronnie Goodman是一名五十多歲的流浪漢，他曾經坐過牢、流過浪，甚至時刻與死亡做斗爭。然而服刑出獄后，Ronnie不曾放棄對美好生活的追求，他開始打工、參加社區學校的美術課程，還有跑步。2014年，他成為舊金山馬拉松比賽最意想不到的參賽者。

When I'm running I feel like I'm not there, I feel like I am somewhere else.

On my run for maybe two hours, I'm a free person.

When people see me as a runner, they don't look at me as a person that is homeless.

Nothing can be worse than what I've been through. I feel like I’ve been to hell and back maybe four times. It was a battle, was a very long long battle.

When I was in prison I always dream about feeling①the wind and looking at the stars, feeling the beauty of life.

I just say, I need to learn how to make this life work.

My running goes hand-in-hand with who I am.It makes everything feel at peace. I really don't want too much. I just want to be healthy. I just enjoy this moment right here, everyone wants that.

當我跑步時我覺得自己不在這里，我覺得我在其他地方。

在這奔跑的兩個小時里，我是一個自由的人。

當人們看到我時，他們看到一個奔跑者，他們不會把我看作一個沒有家的流浪漢。

沒有什么可以比我經歷過的更糟，我曾四次與死亡擦肩而過。那是一場戰斗，一場非常持久的戰斗。

當我在監獄時，我總是夢想可以感受吹過的微風，仰望星空，感受人生的美麗。

我對自己說，我要學會不放棄自己的人生。

跑步讓我再次認識到我自己，它讓我感受到一種平靜。我不需要太多，我只希望健康，并且享受這一時刻，像每一個奔跑者一樣。
