HANGZHOU, China, Oct. 17 (Xinhua) -- Chinese swimmers surpassed 17 world records in the six-day swimming event of eighth Chinese National Games for Disabled after Monday's ending competition.
As an important national contest before the London Paralympics, the National Games was widely seen as a golden chance for those who had achieved Paralympics qualification to show their capability1 and win a berth2 in the Chinese Paralympic delegation3.
Cai Yuqing, the first gold medalist of Guangzhou 2010 Para-Games, collected two golds, one silver and one bronze for the host Zhejiang Province. Cai claimed that she hope her performance would attract some attention.
To the Guangzhou Para Games four golds winner Lin Furong, a Paralympic gold will smooth his regret in Beijing 2008 Paralympic Games where he captured two silver medals.
"Can you believe it? I never swim in the pool before I started in 2005. Then two years later, I won my first medal when I first swum in the National Games," said Lin.
"If I can get to London Paralympics, I hope I can do better than the runner-up."
Except for those who already gained their fame in Paralympics, even more starlets were also looking forward to make a debut4.
