At that moment, the gymnasium boiled.
13.92 meters! This is not just a distance number, this is a poem written by Zeng Rui on the triple jump track with strength, will and tenacious leap. It sang the hymn of peace and competition, and played the march of perseverance and courage. In the women's triple jump, the Chinese female athlete in the jersey witnessed the best annotation of sportsmanship for the world with leaps through the clouds and fog again and again.
Zeng Rui, an iron warrior with a soft and beautiful face, is so neat and capable on the field, every time he jumps and lands. Her seemingly weak figure hides the power to harness wind and thunder. At the critical moment, in the face of fierce competition, she did not flinch, did not fear, only the courage and determination to move forward and fight hard. She understands that sports competition is not only a physical competition, but also a spiritual dialogue, not only the pursuit of gold medals, but also the challenge of self-limits.
The Japanese took the lead and looked like they were on the verge of victory, but their steady technique and excellent results made people have to look sideways. But this did not make Zeng Rui give up any hope. She firmly believes that anything is possible until the end of the last jump. This firm belief and determination to compete are like an invisible force that supports her to constantly surpass herself.
In the last jump, she resembles a lioness ready to attack, her eyes flashing with a desire for victory. With a short but powerful sprint, every step is unusually solid. She jumped, with the anticipation and heartbeat of the audience, and her posture in the air was full of strength and grace, heralding the miracle to come.
And then there was that turning point – 13.92m. The moment her feet touched the sand pit and sprayed a cloud of dirt and sand, a wave of excitement swept through the stadium, and the crowd erupted in the loudest shouts and applause since the game. At that time, she waved her arms vigorously and burst into tears, which was a loud praise for herself and a tribute to the rivals.
The weight of the silver medal, for Zeng Rui, is by no means as simple as the piece of metal hanging on his chest. It carries her countless days and nights of hard work, sweat and tears, and carries an athlete's understanding and pursuit of the Olympic spirit. It tells the story of a Chinese woman's tenacious struggle and outstanding leap in the global arena.
The silver medal is not the end, it is just the starting point for Zeng Rui to move to a higher realm. She knows that after every leap, it is a new beginning, and after every piece of glory, it is a new journey.
After the game, Zeng Rui faced the camera, her smile was relaxed and relieved, but also firm and honest. "I'm proud of what I did today, but I know I can jump even further in the future," she said. Every time I take off, it's a contest between me and myself. Silver is not only about winning, but also about growth and challenge. Thank you to everyone who supported me, it was you who kept me going until the last jump. ”
In this women's triple jump competition that belongs to speed and passion, Zeng Rui did not fall behind. Instead, in an almost dramatic gesture, she climbed to the pinnacle of glory and proved to the world that staying the course is victory.
