Liu Xiang went to USA for the rehabilitation and recovery on October 4, 2012. According to the time schedule, he will go back to China next June.

On that morning, Liu Xiang appeared in Shanghai Pudong airport in sportswear and crutch where his parents saw him off.

Liu Xiang stayed in UK for a short time after getting injured again in London Olympic, and then returned to Shanghai in Xingzhuang training base. Though he can only walk with the crutch, Liu Xiang keeps training every day. During that period, Liu Xiang seldom attended public activities, but was only presented at the 60th anniversary of Shanghai Vocational College of Sports.
