Baikal.But over the past decade,the worlds deepest freshwater lake has been in the spotlight for an extreme sport.Each March since 2005,about 150 people from around the world sign up for the Baikal Ice Marathon.They come to explore the lakes breathtaking beauty and challenge themselves in unpredictable conditions.The 26-mile (41.84-kilometer)journey starts on the lakes eastern shore.In March,the ice is a meter thick and iron-hard.Runners cross this frozen surface,finishing on the western side of the lake.Known as the “blue eye of Siberia”,Lake Baikal has exceptionally clear waters.This means its ice is almost perfectly transparent (透明的).“Seen from above,a runner on the ice looks as if he or she were jogging through space.” The New York Times noted.The landscape might be beautiful,but its

news.The location offers some strange and unique characteristics for this marathon.The finishing line is visible from the start,but the endless white offers no progress markers.The race also ends with

worsened rapidly and she required medical care at home.The family hired a nursing aid who canceled at the last minute.Instead,a woman named TunDe Hector showed up in her place.One day,TunDe shared a

to a gas station.A man saw her walking and turned his car around.He paid for her gas and gave her all the cash left in his wallet.Upon hearing the story,Judys son,Chris,took off his hat and said,“That was me!” He was the stranger that had helped TunDe on that difficult day.During the care of Judy,the Wright family learned about TunDes family and her own dream.The nursing aid,TunDe hoped that one day she could become an OB-GYN nurse.Her tuition was past due (逾期)and she had a family to care for,but she was determined to achieve that goal for herself and her family.Judy died on July 9,2017.Instead of flowers,her family asked mourners (悼念者)to donate to TunDes education,to assist her in paying for her nursing school.In less than a week,they raised more than $8,000 and presented her
