比赛情况
FORMAT
From the top of the hill a round of Double Gloucester cheese is rolled, petitors race down the hill after it. The first person over the finish line at the bottom of the hill wins the cheese. In theory, competitors are aiming to catch the cheese, however it has around a one second head start and can reach speeds up to 70 mph (112 km/h), enough to knock over and injure a spectator.
一轮双层格洛斯特乳酪(一级干酪)从山顶滚下,竞争者们往山下追。第一个过了在山脚下的终点线的人可获得奶酪。从理论上讲,竞争者们的目标是要捕捉奶酪,但它开始滚动的一秒钟起,可以达到速度可达70英里(112公里/小时),足以打翻和伤害一个旁观者。
