Meet the trailblazing women making waves at the 2024 Summer Olympics! 🎉 Paris’ first all-women dragon boat team, composed primarily of breast cancer survivors, grabbed global attention during the Olympic torch relay. Their journey? A powerful mix of resilience and cultural pride. 💪
Founded in 2016, the team has trained weekly for eight years on the Seine, turning pain into strength. Team leader Carole’s logo – intertwining dragons and phoenixes – symbolizes their rebirth. 🐲✨ \"We’re honored to showcase Chinese culture in Paris,\" she said, highlighting the milestone France-China relations this year.
Dragon boat racing’s Olympic debut as a demonstration sport adds extra flair to their story. Who says superheroes need capes? These athletes row! 🚣♀️🔥
