Niu Yu was an 11-year-old elementary school student in Beichuan County, Mianyang City, Sichuan Province. Losing his right leg meant that he couldn't run as much as he used to and had to learn to stand and walk again.

She wrapped the prosthesis with a thick sponge to hide her physical defects and avoid the outside world. After running the Wenchuan Marathon in 2018, Niu Yu was on the hot search, and more than a thousand private messages poured into social accounts.
