At an outdoor bench, I chatted with Chinese golfer Ashun Wu about life at the village. From his start at a countryside village in China to qualifying for the first golf Olympics in a hundred years, Ashun was happy to be a part of the athlete village in Rio.
在露天的一个长椅上,我和中国高尔夫选手吴阿顺聊起了运动员村的生活。一开始从中国农村的一个小镇,一路走到获得百年来第一届高尔夫项目奥运会参赛资格,阿顺显然很高兴能成为里约运动员村的一分子。
“No one thought we’d make it to the Olympics,” he gushed, “But I walked the opening ceremony! To participate and to play here, I have no more regrets in life.”
“没有人看好我们能上奥运会,”他滔滔不绝地说,“但最后我也参加了开幕式运动员入场式!参加奥运会并在这里比赛,我的人生没有遗憾!”
Being the foodie I am, I had to ask about meals at the village.
作为一个美食家,问问他运动员村里的伙食那也是必须滴。
“The cafeteria food is really average,” he said, “Some athletes are sick of it already, so the McDonald’s here has become a well-known hotspot.”
“伙食比较一般啦,”他说,“有些运动员早就吃腻了,所以麦当劳在这里人气爆棚!”
I couldn’t leave the athlete village without trying out the Olympian diet (without any of the restrictions, thankfully). The place only served Brazilian and Asian food with a bonus o f pizza and pasta. I could definitely understand how athletes got sick of it. But what I can’t understand is how McDonald’s became a hotspot. There were at least 20 people waiting in line while I was there. How can these athletes bear putting junk food like McDonald’s into their bodies? I guess everyone needs a break.
