11-year-old Filipino girl wear shoes made of bandages, wins 3 Gold medals
An 11-year-old Filipino girl took social media by storm after she won three gold medals while wearing a ‘shoe’ made from bandages. According to a Facebook post by Predirick B. Valenzuela, Rhea Bullos won the medals in the 400-metre, 800-metre and the 1,500-metre dashes at the Iloilo Sports Council Meet.
A closer look at the makeshift shoes reveals that she even drew the Nike logo on them. In an interview with a portal, Bullos’ trainer expressed his pride in the athlete, and said. “I’m glad she won. She worked hard to train. They only get tired when training because they don't have shoes.”
Soon after the post was shared online, several users applauded the girl's spirit. “Nike should study it... and pay the gold medalist girl for the new running shoes concept... well done young gir.l.. and don't stop running...” a user commented.
“And yet, the lack of shoes did not stop her. You go girl. We are all proud of you,” commented another.
A few even offered to buy shoes for the champion. “I want to give you new shoes. You inspired a lot of people especially of the same age as yours. How can I get your contact whenever you read this just Pm me. Congratulations and may you continue your goal and aim high out of it (sic),” one user commented.
Later, a tabloid in the Philippines tweeted a photo of Bullos trying on a new pair of running shoes at a shoe store.
