My Hero — Su Bingtian
Su Bingtian is a famous runner from China. He competed in the men's 100-metre race at the Tokyo Olympics.
He made history. He became the first Chinese athlete to enter the men's 100-metre final at the Olympics. His time improved from 10.21 seconds to 9.83 seconds!
What makes him admirable is his strong will. He never gave up no matter how hard it was. Even when he was getting older, he kept training hard. With hard work and practice, he broke many records. He is a true example of the fighting spirit. I learn a lot from him.

My Hero — Quan Hongchan
Quan Hongchan is a famous diving athlete from China. She competed in the women's 10-metre platform diving at the Tokyo Olympics.
She achieved great success. At the young age of 14, she won the Olympic gold medal. She got amazing high scores and made nearly perfect dives in the competition.
What makes her admirable is her strong spirit. With hard work and practice, she became quite good at diving. She never gave up no matter how tired the training was. She is a true example of perseverance. I admire her because she puts all her effort into every training and never fears difficulties. Her story encourages me to keep trying when I meet problems in my life.
