"The goal of coming here is two gold medals, and I silently took this wish to heart before the competition. Although I didn't run particularly well today, I didn't break through 23 seconds, but in the National Games, just after 100 meters and my physical fitness was tested, I was still very happy to do it today. Gherman said after the game.

At the last National Games, Ge Manqi won the bronze medal in the women's 200 meters. For four years, she grew from sweat, tears and injuries. Liu Zhaoxu, ge manqi's coach, said: "In the last National Games, we had the strength but the result was disappointing. At that time, I set a goal to win the championship in 2021. ”

A month ago, at the athletics competition of the Tokyo Olympic Games, the women's team composed of Liang Xiaojing, Ge Manqi, Huang Guifen and Wei Yongli advanced to the 4×100m relay final with a time of 42.82 seconds and third in the group, which was also the second time in the history of the Chinese relay women's team to qualify for the Olympic final. In the end, they finished sixth in 42.71 seconds, also setting the best result of the Chinese Olympic Games in the event.

"This year is my harvest year, winning two gold medals at the National Games is the first wonderful step in my life, and there will be more challenges waiting for me, and I will be ready to meet the challenges." Ge Manqi said.

After the game, Liu Zhaoxu commented on Ge Manqi's performance: "Before the game, I told her to run according to the rhythm, no problem. Today's performance is normal, the weather is relatively cold, compared to a few days, the physical fitness will also decline. After returning from Tokyo and experiencing 21 days of isolation, my physical condition and competitive state were not as good as before, but it was not easy to show such a level at the National Games, and I was very satisfied. ”
