On the afternoon of March 8, Chinese athlete Wang Yue finished third in the biathlon women's middle distance (visually impaired) competition at the Beijing Winter Paralympic Games. On Women's Day, as a female visually impaired athlete, she realized her dream of "letting the world see me".
Wang Yue, 22, from Qinhuangdao, Hebei Province, has been a blur since she can remember. Before the game, she once said that "I can't see the world clearly, but I want the world to see me", hoping to use her outstanding performance at the Beijing Winter Paralympic Games to let the world see the infinite possibilities of visually impaired athletes.
In the competition, Wang Yue performed well, and at the beginning of the competition, he once ranked first among all athletes. In the second half of the competition, as her physical fitness declined, Wang Yue's performance dropped slightly, but she finally persevered. In the final round of shooting, she shot all five shots to win a valuable bronze medal for the Chinese team.
As a visually impaired athlete, it takes more hardship to train and compete. During the Yabuli race in Heilongjiang, Wang Yue's two toe covers were touched, but she still insisted on reaching the finish line. "Knee meniscus injury, psoas muscle strain ... I've encountered them all, but these are the problems that athletes have to face, and since they are inevitable, they should be brave enough to face them. ”
