(Central News Agency reporter Li Jian-Zhong, Taipei, 28th) Taiwanese ace athlete Lo Pei-Lin, who has qualified for the women's 400m hurdles at the Nagoya Asian Games, attended a corporate sponsorship event for the National Sports Training Center today; she stated that corporate sponsorship, whether for individuals or the National Sports Training Center, directly helps athletes.
Lo Pei-Lin won a silver medal in the women's 400m hurdles at the 2025 Taiwan Athletics International Open. With her preliminary time of 57.44 seconds, she successfully met the qualification standard for this year's Nagoya Asian Games (58 seconds). The Nagoya Asian Games will open on September 19th.
Lo Pei-Lin, 31, started coaching five years ago. To avoid giving up her Asian Games dream, she worked as a part-time coach at multiple schools and also took on restaurant jobs in her spare time. It was only in recent years, with corporate sponsorship, that she gradually returned to a normal training regimen.
Lo Pei-Lin stated in an interview with reporters that with the help and support of companies, "it indeed made my mind much more at ease, allowing me to train more confidently and steadily according to my training schedule. Without financial pressure, I can also perform better in competitions."
She analyzed that if an athlete wants to have enough competitions within a year, plus training, coaches, physiotherapists, international flights, accommodation, etc., it would cost at least NT$500,000 to NT$1,000,000. "This is still a conservative estimate, so I am very grateful to every company willing to help me."
Despite having qualified for the Asian Games, Lo Pei-Lin chose to train outside the camp in Shalu, Taichung. She mentioned that she would compete in Japan for the next two consecutive weekends, then return to Taiwan to prepare for the New Taipei International Athletics Open, continuously refining her physical fitness and hurdling techniques.
