Physical training
Training: "I'm the coach's experiment"
Guo Ping started sports at the age of 9 and was recruited by Wang Dexian in 1995.
Guo Ping had a foot correction operation at that time, the team was closed training near Shanhaiguan, and she had not been home once in five years. Recalling the "special" of training, Guo Ping said that no matter when she calls home at ordinary times or when she goes out shopping nearly once a month, someone always follows. If she complains or disagrees, she will always be scolded by the coach. When she first entered the team, she told the coach that her strong point was medium and long distance running (800, 1500 meters), and she wanted to specialize in this event. But then the coach asked her to practice long distance running (5000, 10000 meters) and marathon, saying that "it is to let her develop in an all-round way." "When I think about it, I'm the coach's experiment." Guo Ping said.
Life: bean sprouts, cabbage and beef balls
Guo Ping recalled that the average team member had to run 60-70 kilometers every day, and there would be more before the competition. But their food is generally bean sprouts and cabbage, "about half a year to eat this, sometimes frozen bean sprouts and rotten cabbage." Rich food is generally beef ball soup, "a meal of 8 Jin beef stuffing, more than 20 people eat.". We can imagine our nutrition. " In the past two days, it snowed in Qitaihe, and Guo Ping could only sit on the Kang, "the pain of her feet." Guo Ping said that due to unscientific training, all of her ten toes are still dislocated and severely deformed, causing pain in rainy and snowy days and walking long distances. "For a time, I didn't dare to take a bath in the bath or buy shoes in the street for fear that others would see my feet..."
Education: one week English class and two days College
she has been engaged in sports for nearly 20 years. Her whole education is one week English class and two days university life. Guo Ping said that because she often competed abroad, the sports team organized more than 10 members to learn English and practice simple words. but a week later, the coach issued a "ban order" because "I know how to learn English every day, and I don't train well." Guo Ping said, "we really love learning, but we didn't delay training." Guo Ping said that in 1996, she participated in the National University Games on behalf of a university and won the top three in the biathlon middle and long distance race. Later, he became a member of the University and received his diploma eight years later. But in eight years, they had only two days of classes in that university. "It's like an economics class. I can't understand it at all." Guo Ping, 30, admitted that she was a primary school student and didn't even know how to draw more words. Once the child next door asked a sixth grade math problem, but she couldn't answer it.
Retired life
Unemployed state
Hard work, beating and scolding, pain and low income all contribute to the distribution of work in the retired team. Guo Ping said that after she retired, she had been waiting for five years for this wish. Guo Ping said that when she was recruited into the team, the biggest temptation was that the coach promised to "work in the railway system after retirement, maybe it's a teacher or a public security officer." Guo Ping wants to be the latter, "how powerful the police are." In 2002, Guo Ping left the team due to injury and retired the following year. Guo Ping said that in March 2011, she called the coach to ask about her work. The coach said that he didn't care about it. Guo Ping found the locomotive sports team, and a leader replied that she was not a regular member of the team, and her registered permanent residence had not come over, so it was impossible for her to work. "I'm not surprised that AI Dongmei has set up a stall and sold medals, because I've been in the same team for 8 years and I know everything about her." Guo Ping said that after running on the track and field field for so many years and winning so many honors for the country and the team, they have nothing but illness and sadness. "We just keep running, we don't do anything, we feel inferior.
Living in straitened circumstances
The family was too poor to afford coal, and the child's hands were covered with frostbite. For Guo Ping, the only thing that supports her to continue her life is her family. In 2007, she met her husband. On the first day of meeting, she took off her shoes and let him see her deformed feet. She said, "if you can't accept it, let's separate right away." Her husband quietly helped her put on her shoes and looked up with a smile: "I won't give up." The next year, they got married. A year later, a little boy was born to comfort Guo Ping. But life doesn't show a picture of hope, even worse. Her husband works in a small canteen in the mine, earning only 1300 yuan a month. Because Guo Ping can't walk on her feet or stand for a long time, she has basically lost her labor force. In addition, she has to support two old people, so the family of five is getting more and more tight. Bo Bo, her son, is four years old, but Guo Ping has no money for kindergarten, clothes or toys. Because the family has no money to buy coal, Bo Bo's face and hands are frostbite, often see this scene of Guo Ping tears.
Toe deformation
I wanted to kill myself
In 2001, Guo Ping's toes began to deform and her performance declined. She was forced to return to her hometown in Heilongjiang Province for treatment. In 2002, Guo Ping was almost unable to get out of bed and walk. She called Wang Dexian many times to ask for some foot treatment fees and wages during her time as an athlete. "What she got back was a bad scolding.". Guo Ping said that the total amount of medical expenses remitted by Wang Dexian was 3000 yuan. Guo Ping was driven to a dead end. Her parents' property has been hollowed out for her foot injury. In 2006, Guo Ping asked her mother for 10 yuan and lied about going shopping. When she came back, she hid the sleeping pills she bought secretly under her pillow. She said to herself, "it's all over, and my parents will be free.". That night, when her mother came home, she found something strange. She frantically searched, smashed the sleeping pills on the wall and scattered them all over the floor. "I'm not afraid of death. What else am I afraid of?" In the second half of 2006, Guo Ping and her teammate AI Dongmei filed a lawsuit against Wang Dexian in Beijing Haidian District Court, claiming that they embezzled the athletes' wages and the prizes they got in the competition. In 2007, many media reported the case of AI Dongmei and Guo Ping suing Wang Dexian, which ended in an out of court settlement. Wang Dexian was banned from coaching for life. Guo Ping received a compensation of 100000 yuan. She took the money home and bought a small bungalow for her parents. The rest was used to pay off the accumulated debts.
Selling medals
In early December 2012, Guo Ping received a call from Beijing Mairui orthopedic hospital, the other party said that she would receive free treatment for her, "your disease is a typical case, we want to help you.". Wang Zhengyi, vice president of Mairui orthopedic hospital, said that excessive and unscientific training was the main cause of Guo Ping's foot deformity in the early stage of development. On December 6, 36 year old Guo Ping and her husband borrowed the fare and went north to Beijing to prepare for another struggle for their future life. She has 16 medals with her. She wants to sell them in Beijing. on December 14, in the ward of Beijing Mairui orthopedic hospital, 16 medals were neatly placed on the bed. One heavy medal was Guo Ping, who won the second place medal in the International Marathon held in Japan in 1998. "I'm going to send Bo Bo to kindergarten and open a small restaurant with the money I got in exchange for, so that the whole family can have a good meal." Guo Ping said that if one day she earns enough money, she will redeem the medal again. Although these medals are the source of her pain, they are also the glory of the past, proving that she once lived.
Talking about her son who loves running and jumping, she said she would not let him practice sports again
In the second half of 2005, Guo Ping met the handsome young man Pang Jinghe. The other party valued Guo Ping's forthright character and didn't dislike her feet. All this made Guo Ping feel that life had hope again. Guo Ping got married in 2007, and her son Pang Zhibo was born in 2008, which gave her great comfort and frustration. my son is more than 4 years old. He is lively, running and laughing, just like Guo Ping when he was a child. "He likes sports, but I will never let him practice sports in my life!" Guo Ping burst into tears, "I can never hold him, and I have no money to make him live a good life. He is very thin. I have never bought him milk powder, and I can't even afford a fish." Now, Guo Ping lives with her mother-in-law, who is also seriously ill. Her family lives on Pang Jinghe's 1300 yuan salary as a cook. The 16 medals became Guo Ping's only valuable items. "I want to sell them and get some happiness for my family." Asked how to get happiness, she said, "I want to open a medium-sized restaurant in Qitai mountain, which costs more than 100000 yuan. At that time, when my husband cooked, I would take the money. " the reporter interviewed a staff member of the track and field management center of the State General Administration of sports. He said that Guo Ping's injury is quite special and belongs to a case. "This is definitely related to the unscientific training methods, but it is not a common phenomenon to cause such results. Wang Junxia, Zhou Chunxiu, Zhu Xiaolin and other long-distance runners have no such injuries nevertheless, the TMC is still concerned about Guo Ping. In fact, when Guo Ping and AI Dongmei asked coach Wang Dexian for salary together, they actively intervened and solved the problem. "Guo Ping is an old athlete, and when she retired, she was a good athlete," the staff member said
