Rock'n'roll: May is the turn of Michael Kennedy, 73, from Hunstanton in Norfolk, who spends two hours every day, except Saturdays, moving rocks to build a seawall. He has shifted more than 200 tons of rocks over the past 14 years to prevent erosion of cliffs lining the coast. He said: 'I used to walk to Old Hunstanton and back, two and a half miles every day, but that wasn't enough physical exercise for me. I started moving rocks and now I can't stop. It's better than sitting in an armchair. I'll do it for as long as I'm healthy.' |
移石之路:五月的封面輪到邁克爾·肯尼迪(Michael Kennedy)亮相。73歲的邁克爾來自諾??丝ぃ∟orfolk)的亨斯坦頓(Hunstanton)。除了周六,他每天都花兩小時(shí)搬動(dòng)巖石建造海堤。14年以來,他已經(jīng)搬移了200多噸的巖石加固海堤,防止海浪侵蝕海岸線的峭壁。邁克爾說,“我曾經(jīng)徒步來回老亨斯坦頓,每天行走2.5英里,但這還不夠我鍛煉的。于是我開始搬移巖石,現(xiàn)在我已經(jīng)無法停止這個(gè)習(xí)慣了。我想這遠(yuǎn)比臥坐扶手椅整日足不出戶好吧。只要我身體健康,我就會(huì)繼續(xù)搬巖石?!?#160; |
