苏炳添提前结束2023赛季，将缺席世锦赛和亚运会

6月12日，我国短跑名将苏炳添在社交媒体宣布，由于身体原因，已经决定不参加即将开始的田径世锦赛和亚运会田径项目选拔赛，并提前结束2023赛季。

Chinese sprint legend Su Bingtian on Monday announced he will not race at this year's World Athletics Championships and the Hangzhou Asian Games due to injuries.

这意味着苏炳添将缺席世锦赛和亚运会。在社交媒体上，他解释了自己提前结束2023赛季的原因。

对34岁的苏炳添来说，年龄和伤病是他最大的敌人。

由于身体原因，我已经决定不参加即将开始的世锦赛和亚运会田径项目选拔赛，并提前结束2023赛季。

Because of my physical condition, I have decided not to participate in the trials for this year's World Athletics Championships and the Asian Games. I am ending my 2023 season.

作为一名34岁的短跑运动员，多年积累的伤病和流行病后身体机能的变化，给我今年的备战带来了不同程度的困难。

As a 34-year-old sprinter, I have sustained many injuries through the years which have made it difficult to prepare for this season.

自从身体在训练中出现不良反应，队伍为我进行了一系列的检查与测试，并积极地向各方咨询、寻求帮助。

I have been struggling to cope physically with my training, and my team has conducted a series of tests on my body. I have also sought advice and help from many people.

最终，经过专家建议与团队协商，为了能够更好地延长竞技运动生涯，我不得不放弃今年的比赛，进行一段时间的休息与调整。

Therefore, based on expert medical opinion and after discussions with my team, I have to give up on this season. A period of rest and recuperation is required to ensure I can have a longer athletic career.

苏炳添表示，会利用这段时间积极恢复，全力以赴地备战2024巴黎奥运会。

接下来，我会持续关注布达佩斯世锦赛和杭州亚运会中国队的表现，为队友们加油、喝彩。

I will pay close attention to the forthcoming world championships and the Asian Games, and I will be cheering for all of Team China's athletes.

与此同时，我也不会停下逐梦的脚步！我会利用这段时间积极恢复，全力以赴地备战2024巴黎奥运会。

I won't stop chasing my dreams. I will use this period to recover and I will prepare as best I can for the Paris Olympics.

中国田径协会相关负责人表示：“中国田径协会对苏炳添的决定表示理解和尊重，并将继续不遗余力做好后续服务保障工作。对于苏炳添这样一名自律刻苦、敢于拼搏、为国争光的优秀运动员，我们期待他在充分休整后，以更好的状态重返赛场。”

暂别赛场，为了更好地逐梦巴黎。苏炳添，下个赛季见！
