Our noble competitors will run the equivalent of 100 marathons through a hazardous natural obstacle course.

我们尊贵的参赛者将沿着一条危险的自然障碍路线，奔跑相当于 100 场马拉松的距离。

Most of what is greatest in man is called forth in response to the thwarting of his hopes by immutable natural obstacles; by the pretence of omnipotence, he becomes trivial and a little absurd.

人的大部分最伟大的东西都是为了回应他的希望被不可改变的自然障碍所挫败而被唤起的。假装无所不能，他变得微不足道，有点荒谬。
