Shin Eui-hyun, who competed for two days in a row following the biathlon the day before, ran with all his might on the 1,600-meter high course, which is more than twice that of Pyeongchang.
He made it through the first 3km point in 5th place, but after that, his speed dropped and he fell into mid-level.
But he did a last-minute spurt even though he was out of breath, finishing 8th out of 25.
[Shin Eui-hyun / Paralympic Nordic Ski National Team: I did my best...
I think I'm out of breath because the rent is high here.] Although it was a
pity that I couldn't win a medal in the main event, I expressed my gratitude with a trembling voice for the interest and support of the people.

So many people's attention...
I didn't know I would get it.]
The sprint of the iron man is not over yet.
In the remaining four events, Eui-Hyeon Shin will fight again with her unique 'positive energy'.

I took a breath today, so the next game will be better.]
