At the Paris Olympic Games, the Chinese sports delegation won 40 golds, 27 silvers and 24 bronzes, creating the best record in overseas competitions. In the 2024 Shanghai Youth Sports Elite Series Track and Field Competition Finals and the "Duowei Cup" Shanghai Youth Track and Field Championships, the track and field team of Luwan Junior Sports School in Huangpu District won 6 golds, 9 silvers and 11 bronzes in one fell swoop.
As the highest-level youth sports event in the city, this competition brought together many outstanding young players in Shanghai, and the competition was fierce. Liu Jiakang is one of the 90 athletes who represented the track and field team of Luwan Junior Sports School in Huangpu District, and he was born in 2007 and won the gold medal in the men's javelin throw with his excellent skills and consistent performance.
Liu Jiakang's success in winning the gold medal is not accidental, in addition to his long-term unremitting hard training, it is inseparable from the careful guidance of the coach. When talking about Liu Jiakang, Zuo Donghui, the enlightenment coach and leader of the track and field team of Luwan Junior Sports School, immediately blurted out, in her memory, Liu Jiakang was always the first to arrive and the last to leave on the training ground, "When he first came, he was only in elementary school, and he ran in a group, I remember very clearly, only he never stopped to rest halfway, and insisted on running the whole course." It was Liu Jiakang's traits that made Zuo Donghui take a fancy to him and decided to cultivate them carefully.
Since 2014, he has been associated with Luwan Junior Sports School, warm-up, running, and small strength training...... In the eyes of others, boring repetitive movements, Liu Jiakang never slacked off every link, "When I was a child, I picked up the javelin for the first time, and then ran and jumped, I thought it was too handsome." "After he really started training, he found that the javelin has very high requirements for physical fitness, speed, skill and explosiveness, which is one of the reasons why Liu Jiakang trains harder and harder." Gold medals are the goal of every athlete, and only by putting in more effort than others can they achieve excellent results. ”
From a primary school student with a height of 1.4 meters to a tall man today, no matter the scorching sun or the biting cold wind, Liu Jiakang has never taken a leave of absence in the past ten years of training; From a blank sheet of paper to winning gold medals in many events such as the Shanghai Games and the National Student (Youth) Games, Liu Jiakang's growth is the best reward for his efforts. In the future, he wants to become an athlete who "surpasses himself and breaks through himself" and strives to achieve better results in the competition.
