马拉松式的爱情(Marathon of love)
newly weds katie austin (l) and gordon fryer run over the land mark tower bridge during the london marathon.
a british couple gave a new twist to the idea of running away together by competing in the london marathon in their wedding clothes and getting married halfway around the course.
katie austin and gordon fryer from romsey in southern england ran the race with the bride's parents who gave her away at the ceremony in the bridge master's dining room on tower bridge.
the groom and his father-in-law wore traditional waistcoats, wing-collared shirts and cravats, but with shorts instead of trousers.
the bride wore a full length ivory wedding dress with train above her running shoes - an outfit she conceded she had never run in before sunday.
despite rain, the bride arrived at the bridge with her make-up and hair still in place.
the 80-minute ceremony may have scuppered their chances of running a new personal best time, but the couple emerged beaming to a shower of confetti and cheers from guests and well-wishers.
the newly-weds and the austin then immediately got back onto the racecourse and continued running without speaking to waiting reporters.
felix limo of kenya led the men's race as deena kastor won the women's title at the london marathon on sunday.
"马拉松式的爱情"英语作文译文:
英国一对情侣在伦敦展开了一场另类的“私奔”。他们身穿结婚礼服参加马拉松长跑比赛，在跑步途中举行了婚礼。
凯蒂·奥斯汀和戈登·弗耶来自英国南部的罗姆西。新娘凯蒂的父母也一同参加了长跑比赛，并参加了在塔桥上的“桥主”餐厅举行的结婚仪式。
新郎和他的岳父上身穿着传统的马甲和硬翻领衬衫，打着领结，下身没有穿长裤，而是穿着短裤。
新娘身着一袭象牙白全身礼服，婚纱的裙摆正好落在跑鞋上面。凯蒂说，周日之前她从没试穿过这身行头。
尽管天飘细雨，新娘跑到塔桥时，脸上的妆容和发型都没有被破坏。
整场婚礼进行了80分钟，耽误的时间使他们没法取得比赛佳绩，但是伴着飘舞的五彩纸屑，还有宾客和祝福者的欢呼声，夫妻二人笑逐颜开，喜气洋洋。
婚礼之后，这对新人及奥斯汀夫妇立刻返回跑道继续参加比赛，没有和等候的记者们说话。
