On 18 October 1997 in Shanghai she ran the 1500 metres in 3:53.91 minutes. This ranks her sixth in the world of all time, behind Qu Yunxia, Jiang Bo, Lang Yinglai, Wang Junxia and Tatyana Kazankina.[1]

Yin never had a distinguished career after this, rarely competing internationally. In 2001, she received a two-year suspension for doping.[2]
