過去簡單式

We didn't start with a grand, all-encompassing plan for world domination.

並不是一開始就有一個宏偉的，包羅萬象的統治世界的計劃。

I simply invited my friends to the park because I was a bit lonely.

我因為有點寂寞，乾脆邀請朋友來公園玩。

I had no idea that other people's lives would be affected by this little seed that I planted.

我不知道別人的生活會被我這個小小的種子所影響，我為開始的藉口種下了一個小小的種子。

For what started as an excuse to be with my friends at a time when I really needed them close, to have become a global phenomenon will always be extraordinary to a South African computer programmer who liked to run.

在我真正需要他們靠近的時候和我的朋友們在一起，已經成為一種全球現象，對於一個喜歡跑步的南非計算機程序員來說，這將永遠是非凡的。

I will never be comfortable with personal accolades that I'm given.

我永遠不會對個人榮譽的獲得感到舒服。

But over time I've got used to the idea that Park Run is something special.

但隨著時間的推移，我已經習慣了柏潤是個特別的想法。

That this event I created mostly for my own health and happiness has become a movement that has had such a positive impact on so many people's lives.

我的這項活動主要是為了自己的健康和快樂而創建的，現在已經成為一項運動，對很多人的生活產生了積極的影響，經常有人告訴我，Park run對他們來說是生與死的區別。

It's not uncommon for someone to tell me that Park run for them has been the difference between living and dying literally.But I have not done this alone.

如果沒有無數人對我的故事和公園外的故事的貢獻，我今晚就不會在這裡。

I would not be here tonight without the contribution off countless others.

這是我堅信的事情，人一次又一次的好。

At the heart of my story and of Park Run's story is something that I firmly believe in: that people are good

在過去的15年裡，我被人類精神的強大表現所折服，因為人們在週六和週日的早晨聚集在一起，分享我們美妙的公園和開放空間，並一起活動。

Time and time again over the last 15 years, I've been overwhelmed by the powerful displays of the human spirit, as people have come together on Saturday and Sunday mornings, sharing our wonderful parks and open spaces and being active together.

我當時正經歷著人生中的一段困難時期，而跑步是讓我保持頭腦清醒的常態。

I was going through a difficult time in my life, and running was the constant that kept my head above water.

突然間，由於受傷，我不能再做了。

And suddenly, thanks to an injury, I couldn't do it anymore.

我在2000年知道的是，我個人有一種活躍、戶外和社交的需求。

What I knew in 2004 was that I personally had a need to be active, to be outdoors and to be social.

What I didn't know was that so did everybody else.

就像生活中大多數偉大的事情一樣，公園跑是一個非常簡單的，概念。

Like most great things in life, Park Run is a very simple, concept.

免費的，每週一次的社區上司的，以社會為中心的活動，你可以步行，慢跑，跑步，志願者或觀看。

Free, weekly community-led, socially focused events where you can walk, jog, run, volunteer or spectate.

我們用計時跑作為吸引人們參與的一個鉤子，但它從來沒有真正的意義。

We used the timed run as a hook to get people involved, but it was never really about that.

絕對歡迎任何人以某種方式參與，同一家庭的四代人在同一天參加活動是很常見的。

Absolutely anyone is welcome to participate in some way, and it's not unusual to see four generations of the same family all taking part on the same day.

帕克並以一種常常被現代社會忽視的方式將人們聚集在一起，以一種賦予人類精神最美好的一面的方式。

Park Run brings people together in a way too often overlooked by modern society and in a way that empowers the most wonderful aspects of the human spirit.

它為每個人提供了機會，讓他們參與一些積極的、建設性的和快樂的事情，成為社區的一部分，併為他們的同胞的健康和幸福做出貢獻。

It offers everyone the opportunity to involve themselves in something positive, constructive and joyful; to be part of their community, and to contribute to the health and happiness of their fellow humans.

在這個越來越瘋狂和孤獨的世界裡，每週都有成千上萬的家庭利用當地的公園跑步來共度時光，將日常生活的壓力拋在腦後，與親人重新建立聯繫。

In an ever more frantic and lonely world, thousands of families every week use their local Park Run to spend time together, leaving the stresses of everyday life behind and reconnecting with loved ones.

而這一切，從15年前18位朋友在公園裡相遇，13位跑者和5位志願者開始，每週都會在你當地的公園裡發生。

And all of this happens every single week in a park local to you.

我們預計，到今年年底，將有超過400萬不同的人在21個國家的2000個公園和開放空間進行了超過6000萬次的步行、跑步或志願服務。

From what started out 15 years ago as 18 friends met (meeting) in a park--13 runners and five volunteers--we expect that by the end of this year, over four million different people will have walked, jogged, run or volunteered over 60 million times at 2000 parks and open spaces across 21 countries.

幾年前，我意識到，為了實現我們的夢想，我們需要成為一個全球統一的大家庭，因為我們有一個共同的願望，那就是讓世界變得更加健康和幸福。

It was several years ago when I realized that in order to achieve our dream, we would need to become a single global family bound together by a common desire to make the world healthy and happier.

同時，當時我也意識到，我們這個美好的社區已經超出了我的能力範圍，如果我們要取得成功，我們需要一個技能和經驗都特別均衡的人的上司。

Importantly, also at that time I realized that our wonderful community had outgrown my capabilities and if we were going to succeed, we would need the leadership of someone with an exceptional balance of skills and experience.

當2015年5月，我任命尼克-皮爾森為我們的首席執行官時，我從組織的日常運作中撤走了自己。

When in May 2015 I appointed Nick Pearson as our CEO, I removed myself from the day-to-day running of the organization.

這可能是我一生中最具挑戰性的時刻，因為柏跑只有11歲，感覺就像自己的孩子。

This was possibly the most challenging moment of my life, as Park Run was only 11 years old and it felt like my own child.

這個我培養了11年，見證了我在順境和逆境中成長的東西需要邁出下一步。

This thing that I had nurtured for 11 years, seen grow up through good times and bad needed to take the next steps.

我發現一個極度難以接受的事實，公園跑步可以也應該沒有我。

I found a desperately hard to accept that Park Run could and should run without me.

但我越想越覺得這是唯一的選擇。

But the more and more I thought about it, the more I realized it was the only option.

今天，我們在世界各地有43名員工，鑑於Parker on帶來的影響水準，這仍然是一個令人難以置信的小團隊，我非常自豪地稱之為同事和朋友。

Today we have 43 staff all around the world, still an incredibly small team, given the level of impact that the Park Run delivers and a team that I'm immensely proud to call colleagues and friends.

But it's no longer me that leads that team.

處於改變世界軌跡上的偉大運動，往往被其創始人拖垮，因為他們長期堅持自己的創造精神，令人窒息。

Great movements on trajectories to change the world are so often brought down by their founders, who hang on too long, suffocating the spirit of their creation.

在我的例子中，我認識到，我所擁有的技能，對於創建公園跑並指導它度過第一個10年的動盪時期是如此的關鍵，但與在下一任上司下擁有數百萬成員的全球運動所面臨的一系列完全不同的挑戰所需要的技能是不一樣的。

In my case, I recognized that the skill set I possessed, which was so critical to creating Park Run and guiding it through the turbulent times of our first 10 years, was not the same skill set required to match the completely different set of challenges faced by a global movement with many millions of members.

公園跑實現了我很多關的夢想，這是我從來沒有想過的，能和公園跑的朋友們交流，真是太好了。

Under Nick's leadership, Park Run has achieved so many of my dreams in ways I could never have imagined, and it's wonderful to speak to fellow park runners.

人們總是想感謝我，說，你是否結束了這個帕克和改善我的健康帕克，並幫助我找到朋友或感覺社區的一部分，這是美妙的，但真的，他們做到了。

People always want to thank me and say, Park Run did this Park Run and improved my health, Park Run helped me find friends or feel part of a community, and that's wonderful.

他們所做的每一個決定，都是他們自己做的。

But really, they did it; every decision they made, they took themselves.

正如我已經說過的，也是我的故事和柏跑故事的核心，有一種東西是我堅信的。

As I've already said, and at the heart of my story and of Park Run's story, there is something that I firmly believe in: people are good.
