I'm Jon Donnison and for this BBC World Service Assignment, we're in the Mediterranean for an extreme sport - a race that will cover a territory from top to bottom, the Gaza Marathon.
"Now, you're one of the favourites. What time are you going for today?"
"Three hours. Would have been two and a half, but it's too windy. Good luck."
"Gaza Marathon is about to start. Runners, we are going to start running in five, four, three, two, one."
Well, that's it. They are off 42 kilometres, 26 miles from the border here with Israel, all the way south across this Palestinian territory to Rafah and the gateway to Egypt. Some of these runners have high hopes and some of them, at least to look at them, frankly, have no hope. But over the last few days, I've been following their final preparations for a unique race across one of the world's most notorious conflict zones.
I've come to the house of half-brothers Mohamed and Bashir who train six days a week. They are both 46 and in Gaza that's pretty old. Over half the strip's fast-growing population of 1.7 million are children.“大家早上好。欢迎参加2012加沙马拉松。我想请所有参赛者都到起跑线去。”
我是Jon Donnison，本期BBC全球服务的《任务》节目，我们来到了地中海，参观一场极限运动——这是一场完全跨越整个国家领土的赛跑，加沙马拉松。
“那么你也是夺冠大热门之一。今天打算花多长时间跑完？”
“三小时。本来两个半小时就够了的，但今天风太大。祝你好运。”
“加沙马拉松即将开始。各位选手，准备起跑，五，四，三，二，一。”
比赛这就开始了。他们要跑42公里，相当于26英里，从这里的巴以边境一路向南，穿越整个巴勒斯坦国土一直到拉法，到埃及边境。有些赛跑者很有希望，有的人嘛，老实说，至少看起来希望渺茫。不过过去几天里，对这样一场跨越全世界最臭名昭著的冲突地区的赛跑，我跟踪报道了参赛者们赛前的最后准备。
我来到了半血缘兄弟默罕穆德和巴谢尔的家里，他俩每周六天持续训练。俩人都已经46岁了，在加沙，这已经是高龄了。在这片狭长的地带，人口正迅速膨胀，在这170万人中有一半以上都是孩子。
