The Winter Olympics are in full swing,
On the field, the Winter Olympic athletes worked hard,
Inspiring and touching countless people!
12 years, four Winter Olympics,
Time passes in the air and flips again and again.
Xu Mengtao, 31, Jia Zongyang, 30, and Qi Guangpu, 31, regrettably passed by the gold medal at the Beijing Winter Olympics.
After the game, seeing jia Zongyang's mistake and blaming himself, Xu Mengtao rushed up and hugged him. She later said: "Because we know that he must be more upset than us at this moment." ”
No one can deny the excellence of the three veterans. Four Olympic games, they are already their own heroes!
From the first time he entered the Winter Olympic Games to his fourth expedition, the teammates around Xu Mengtao, Jia Zongyang and Qi Guangpu changed and changed. They also had the idea of giving up, but in the end they chose to move on.
After the Pyeongchang Winter Olympics, Xu Mengtao underwent surgery on both knee joints. Xu Mengtao, who always had a smile on her face, had already scarred her legs. Jia Zongyang also suffered a major injury, and 22 steel nails were implanted in his legs to make him the "Iron Man" in people's mouths. But he didn't back down, but fought the injury for three years, and now it's a miracle to be on the field. Qi Guangpu, who failed to hit the podium of the Winter Olympics three times, was discouraged and once chose to retire, but in the end he could not resist the call of his heart and returned to continue fighting.

Even if the body is scaled,
I have never lost the courage to fight again!
On February 5, after the short track speed skating team won China's first gold medal at the Beijing Winter Olympics, Wu Dajing cried and said: "These four years have experienced too much, today's dream has come true!" ”
Because of years of training in skates, Wu Dajing's entire foot was severely deformed, covered with scars, calluses and deformed bones.
He once said, "I have a very ugly pair of feet", but everyone thinks that this is the "most beautiful medal".
It is these feet that help the Chinese team cross the finish line again and again and lift the trophy!

Stand on the field and you're the winner!
Toast the wine to the east wind, and calm down together.
In the men's U-shaped track skills final on snowboarding on Feb. 11, American Sean White finished fourth.
The ending may not be perfect, but the oldest player in the history of the Winter Olympics has no need to prove it - looking back at his five-time Winter Olympics journey, there is only the word legend. And when he finished the final jump, the audience applauded thunderously, and Sean White also shed tears...
When the moment of the end really came, Sean White was still full of gratitude: "It's really over!" Thank you to China for letting me finish the final battle of my career. ”

Old Ji Futuo, determined to be in a thousand miles,
There has always been a persistence in the Olympic arena against the current.
German speed skater Claudia Pechtstein used her time and effort to create miracles.
She was the first female athlete in the world to participate in eight Winter Olympics and is affectionately known as "Skating Grandma".
The 22nd of the month is her 50th birthday.
On February 5, the beijing Winter Olympics speed skating competition began, and in the women's 3000 meters, she finally ranked last among the 20 participants.

The relay between newcomers and veterans makes us marvel at the olympic spirit,
Another relay between brothers also makes us lament the power and inheritance of the Olympic dream.
On the evening of February 6, the men's single sleigh of the Beijing Winter Olympics ended the third round of skating, and Georgia's Saba Kumari Tashweli ranked 31st, although he had no chance of medals, but he had fulfilled his cousin's wish.
Twelve years ago, his 21-year-old cousin Nodar was tragically killed in training before the Vancouver Winter Olympics, and the Winter Olympic Organizing Committee and the International Olympic Committee lowered their flags to half-mast at the opening ceremony to mourn him. In the interview, Saba said: "Nodal brought me not only sadness, but more strength, so I am now qualified to stand in the Winter Olympics. ”

Constantly breaking through yourself is a victory in itself.
On February 9, in the first round of the women's alpine skiing relale at the Beijing Winter Olympics, Li Weiyi, the last Chinese Taipei player to play, fell and missed the flag gate shortly after departure.
According to the rules, missed flag gate, the player can climb back to re-pass, but the climbing time is also counted in the total score, in the eyes of the earlier champions, such a mistake means the end, many people will give up directly.
"I'm going to finish, and my goal before I came is to finish. It was so hard to come to the Olympics, I can't just go back! ”
The audience witnessed the whole process of her falling on the big screen, saw the ice-like snow mist from the snowboard almost drowned her on the screen, saw her slowly get up, step on the snowboard to make the blade of the board stuck horizontally on the snow, and then move up step by step, step by step, slowly climbing towards the flag gate she had just missed!
People cheered!
Cheers for a girl who climbs up in this competition who is going down fast!

Champions are never the only meaning of sport.
More important than challenging the opponent is to challenge oneself and challenge the limit.
On February 7, Canada's Max Parrott won the men's steeplechase final at the Beijing Winter Olympics.
For the Canadian star, it was already a miracle to be able to get back on the slopes.
After the 2018 Winter Olympics in PyeongChang, he was unfortunately diagnosed with cancer, and throughout 2019, Parot received chemotherapy 12 times.
But he didn't give up.
He writes a daily diary on his social media to share his anti-cancer process with netizens. At the end of 2019, Parot defeated his illness and returned to his beloved ski resort.

Beyond gold, silver and bronze is faster, higher and stronger.
On February 10, the men's single skating field of figure skating at the Beijing Winter Olympics attracted everyone's attention.
Japan's Yu Yusuke, who previously ranked eighth in the short program and trailed the American player Chen Wei by nearly 19 points, appeared in the free skate, and the first jump action was to challenge the unprecedented Axel around the jump (4A).
Yusei Yuki knows that "4A" does not bring him a gold medal - in the ISU's scoring rules, "4A", although ranked first, is only 1 point higher than the second-ranked action, which is far from making up the gap of 19 points.
Taking off, spinning, and falling on the ice, Yu Yu eventually finished fourth and missed the medal.
The audience sighed - if he is not obsessed with challenging 4A and reducing the difficulty, he is likely to present a splendid and perfect performance to the world and win a medal. However, his lonely challenge tells people that the core of figure skating beauty is still the beauty of sports.

The courage of the challenger to stride forward will not be lost by falling.
They are a true footnote to the Olympic spirit!
May the great Olympic athletes surpass themselves again and again,
Always enjoy the joy of sports!
May the Olympic spirit shine on and off the field.
On different tracks,
Ordinary and extraordinary you and I have our own dreams,
Be your own true hero.
