The Tokyo Olympics, which ended this morning
Marathon swimming women's 10 km race
China's Xin Xin
With a time of 2 hours 0 minutes 10 seconds 1
Finished 8th
"If you fight hard, don't talk about disappointment"
This morning, most people are still asleep
Tokyo Bay, on the other hand, is already bustling
In the marathon swimming women's 10 km race
The only Chinese girl, Xin Xin, overcame it
The bite of creatures in the water
Physical collisions between players
and many other challenges
This is done
The super-abusive project of "Brave Games"
However, she herself was not satisfied with this result
She said on social media:
"Let everyone be disappointed in this project... ”
Netizens have left messages
"It's already amazing, we're proud of you!"
Although he was not able to stand on the podium
But to be able to stand on the field of this project
And fight for it
Xin Xin deserves the warmest applause!
Swim outdoors for 10 kilometers
How hard is it?
Marathon swim for 10 km
It's a tough endurance contest
In the time of almost 2 hours
Athletes need to rely on their own strength
Take a fight against nature
The waves, the water temperature, the weather...
Every factor is fraught with uncertainty
Athletes who can participate in this event
In addition to possessing excellent swimming skills
There must be willpower beyond ordinary people
Open waters are fraught with environmental dangers
There are often jellyfish, seagrasses, undercurrents, etc
Xin Xin was doing pre-match training in Tokyo Bay on August 3
The first thing to do on the shore was the staff in the trouble squad
Help her clean up the bugs on her back
The timing of the game is also a great test
It is reported that due to the marathon swimming women's 10 km race
Starts at 5:30 a.m
In order to prepare for the Olympic Games
Xin Xin is in closed training in China
Get up at four o'clock and train at five o'clock
Be prepared to adapt in advance
"Because of suffering, there are fewer people practicing
I have more opportunities."
Xin Xin was born in Jinan, Shandong
Both parents were ordinary working-class people
Because dad used to be engaged in swimming
At the age of 6, Xin Xin began to train swimming
In children though
Xin Xin's swimming talent is not very high
But she was particularly able to endure hardships
Endurance is good, personality is very strong
"Training for marathon swimming
It's really special and bitter
Very boring"
Coach Jin Hao sighed
Xin Xin almost every day except to eat and sleep
It's training
"She's the hardest athlete I've ever brought"
Many people have asked Xin Xin
"This project is so hard, why do you want to practice?"
She replied:
"It's because it's hard
A lot of people don't want to practice this project
Failed to stand on the podium
But you are still our pride
Since 2008 open water men, women 10 km
Since officially becoming an Olympic event
European and American players have always monopolized the podium
Rio 2016 Olympic Games
Xin Xin and Zu Lijun became the first to participate
Chinese in the Olympic women's 10 km swimming marathon
In the end, Xin Xin won the fourth place
The gap with the champion is only 42.30 seconds
Although he was unable to stand on the podium
But she has created Chinese players
The best result of the project at the World Series
July 2019
Xin Xin won the World Championships in Gwangju
It broke with China and even Asia
A breakthrough of zero gold medal in the World Championships event

Swim in open water
At present, it is still in its infancy in our country
But Xin Xin gave people hope
Before the expedition to Tokyo
Xin Xin said his goal is to stand on the podium
"At the 2016 Rio Olympics, I am very sorry
It's one step closer to the podium
I hope I can fulfill my dream at the Tokyo Olympics."
It's a little bit of a pity
This dream was not realized this time
But it doesn't matter, as long as you have fought
No medals are also heroes!
We are proud of you
Looking forward to your next bloom!
