真正的不老传说，54岁老将勇夺帆船比赛冠军.

　　Olympian Santiago Lange broke down many times as he celebrated a triumph which may not have seemed possible just last year. The 54-year-old won a gold medal with his crew mate Cecilia Carranza Saroli in the Nacra 17 Mixed Multihull race Tuesday after a battle with lung cancer last year, the Associated Press reports.

　　桑提亚哥·兰赫在庆祝胜利的时候多次难掩激动之情——就算是在去年，这场胜利也显得那么遥不可及。据美联社报道，这名54岁的帆船运动员在周二和搭档塞西莉亚·卡兰扎·萨罗丽获得了公开级诺卡拉17级双体帆船项目的冠军。而去年，他还在和肺癌作斗争。

　　Lange, who hails from Argentina, had his lt lung partially removed after a lung cancer diagnosis last year but says the hardship only made him work harder.

　　兰赫是阿根廷帆船选手，去年被诊断出癌症之后，他的左肺被切除了。但是苦难让他更加坚强了。

　　“This may help to give strength to many people who are going through what I’ve been through,” Lange told reporters. “But I prer to focus on what we did athletically. The disease has nothing to do with it, it was a stone in the road. I became obsessed with getting to Rio very well prepared and we did.”

　　“这可能会鼓励那些跟我有着一样境遇的人。”兰赫在接受记者采访时说，“但是我想以运动员的角度来看这件事。疾病跟比赛是没有关系的，这不过是前进路上的一块绊脚石。我着了迷一样地为里约奥运会做准备，而且我们也做到了。”

　　Lange is reportedly the oldest medalist to date at the Rio Olympics and the oldest sailor competing. Fellow sailor, Austrian Tanja Frank, said the other athletes sometimes joke about Lange being an “old man” but clearly he’s shattered every stereotype.

　　据报道，兰赫是参加里约奥运会的帆船选手中最年长的一位，也是获得奖牌的运动员中年纪最大的。奥地利帆船选手塔尼亚·弗兰克说，其他帆船运动员有时候会开玩笑说兰赫是个“老伙计”，但是很明显，他打破了所有人的刻板印象。

　　Countless other athletes have joined Lange in dying the myth that there’s an age limit to athleticism ― athletes like Oksana Chusovitina, 41, who is the oldest woman to compete in women’s gymnastics, and 52-year-old equestrian Phillip Dutton, who is the oldest U.S. athlete at the games this year. Dutton won a bronze medal last week in the individual equestrian eventing.

　　还有很多运动员都像兰赫一样不服老，勇于挑战年龄极限。41岁的奥克萨娜·丘索维金娜是最年长的女子体操运动员，52岁的马术选手菲利普·达顿是今年美国奥运代表团中年纪最大的选手。达顿上周在个人马术项目中获得了铜牌。

　　Amazing. Congratulations to all of you!

　　真是令人惊叹。祝贺你们所有人!
