gorgeous was crying out in pain, quite obviously, and i could only shift uncomfortably in my seat, nothing else.
Its a painful decision to leave the field, even without competing, and thou i'll rather not rub salt to his wounds, the fact that the race was held in his own nation makes matters worst.
it was heart wrenching to watch, knowing that it was all live, and that liu xiang ain't getting a second chance at the hurdles, not in 2008.
I was kinda bloody affected cause i've been wanting to watch China's most famous athlete run and jump, since i ended my internship, before olympics even started. it was just painful painful and just mind blowingly, painful.
Mr gorgeous long legs will still be China's pride, his win in athens (against the westerners) will stay with China.
meanwhile, i'll just have to wait till he gets better.
or maybe try getting a picture with his wax figurine somewhere.
ah, im getting all emotional over this one.
