God of Sprint

Chapter 400: The King of the m Preliminary Race Arrives

It was dinner time, and the three of them reluctantly got up and went to their respective coaches' places to eat.

When they arrived at Wang Xin's residence, Wang Xin had already prepared dinner. After the two sat down to eat, Wang Xin took out the information of the players for tomorrow's competition.

These materials, including previous materials, were actually obtained by Wang Xin from the Provincial Sports Bureau through Liu Qin's connections. When Wang Xin approached Liu Qin and asked for the players' materials, Liu Qin called Zhao Yun's father without saying anything when she heard that they were for Zhao Yun. Wang Xin was able to obtain these materials easily. Of course, neither Wang Xin nor Liu Qin mentioned these things to Zhao Yun, so Zhao Yun did not know these inside stories.

"This 80m race is different from the m race. This time the m race is mainly for the post-s generation, and they are all in their prime."

"Also, I'll tell you a little rumour. Xie Zhenye didn't participate in the 100m because he wanted to save his big move for the World Championships. And Su Bingtian didn't participate in the National Games not because of injury, but because he wanted to steal a chance at the World Championships. He didn't want to expose his strength and was preparing for the World Championships so that his opponents would let down their guard and suddenly explode and enter the finals."

"As for another reason, many people speculated that Su Bingtian wanted to give Ma Xin a championship and let Ma Xin retire without regrets, but this statement has not been confirmed yet!"

Zhao Yun was shocked when he heard the news. Zhao Yun suddenly understood why Ma Xin did that. It was not only because of the game strategy problem, but also because he messed up his retirement performance.

If Su Bingtian really withdrew for Ma Xin, then is Xie Zhenye not participating in the 100m for this reason? Instead of waiting for some big move of the World Championships, what about Zhang Peimeng, who is known as the current No. 1 in the 100m? Why didn't he participate? The level of the event is low? Although it is low, it is not very low. If this is true, what kind of pattern do these three people have! Thinking of this, Zhao Yun felt guilty and admired.

"Don't have wild thoughts. Rabbit Country sports need to rise, especially you young players. If you want to rise, you have to stand on the shoulders of your predecessors. This is the law of history. Look at the players in tomorrow's competition!" Wang Xin reminded Zhao Yun after seeing him in a daze.

"This is Xu Zizhou's competition video. He is also the biggest player in this competition. He may retire after this competition."

"Xu Zizhou is also the current 400-meter record holder in our country. This is a video of his peak moment. It is his most perfect moment in terms of both technique and physical condition. Take a good look at it."

The video starts playing Xu Zizhou's competition video, which is from the 2009 World Championships. He performed perfectly, running 45.25 seconds, but unfortunately he still missed the finals. The finals were all within 44.6 seconds, and the champion that year was 43.86 seconds.

Xu Zizhou's start, curves, straight lines and strategies were all perfectly displayed in combination with his body. Zhao Yun stared at Xu Zizhou on the screen.

After watching Xu Zizhou, Wang Xin said, "There is also a young athlete rising in this competition. He is one year older than you, born in 95, and became famous in last year's indoor track and field competition. His name is Yang Lei. You can watch his competition and see if you can find inspiration from him."

Wang Xin then opened Yang Lei's video. In the video, a young man won the first place with an extremely proud attitude. After winning the first place, his face was full of innocent smiles. His smile was very contagious. Zhao Yun couldn't help but smile after watching it, and his mood was not as heavy as before.

I have to say that Wang Xin is really a master of psychology. He always adjusts Zhao Yun's mood inadvertently, like moistening things silently, and you can't feel it. After seeing Zhao Yun's smile, Wang Xin felt a lot more relaxed.

Originally, Wang Xin had prepared a lot of information, but after seeing that Zhao Yun was in a bad mood, he did not play the other videos.

"Okay, you go back! Go back and have a good rest! Don't affect tomorrow's game." Wang Xin said to Zhao Yun seriously.

"Goodbye, coach!" After Zhao Yun put his chair back in place, he came to the playground again.

Now it seems that the playground is my home. Now that the students have not started school, the playground is terribly quiet. The stars in the sky seem so far away that I can't catch them no matter how hard I try.

Zhao Yun was walking aimlessly on the playground when suddenly someone patted him from behind. Zhao Yun turned around and a look of surprise instantly appeared on his face.

"You, why are you here on the playground?" Zhao Yun said with a smile, feeling a little nervous.

"I was bored and Manman was doing a live broadcast. I thought it was boring so I came out for a walk." Liu Qin said.

"When I first came here, I saw you wandering around like a chicken!" Liu Qin seemed to see that Zhao Yun didn't know how to speak, and continued.

"What's wrong? Are you in a bad mood?"

"No, I was just bored and didn't know what to do, so I had to come to the playground!"

"Then I'll take a walk with you. I'm bored too."

"Ok!"

After that, the two of them didn't say anything, just walked around the playground again and again. The stars seemed to feel bored, so they pulled the moon up to accompany it, and the bright moonlight filled the entire playground to accompany them. The two figures under the moonlight walked up and down.

August 8th: Clear weather, wind force 6, wind speed 0.9 m/s

After getting up in the morning and warming up on the playground, Wang Xin drove Zhao Yun to the Provincial Gymnasium after breakfast. On the way, Wang Xin reminded Zhao Yun of the game moves and rhythms mentioned yesterday.

“The 400m can be called the dreaded long sprint race that no one wants to run, but generally speaking it’s not that different from the 200m, with the exception of speed endurance.

As with the 200m, the start of the 400m has a drive or acceleration phase. After the 400m runner accelerates off the starting blocks, you reach and then maintain near maximum race speed.

You need to maintain a speed of 100 seconds for the first 11 meters of the curve stage. This is the driving stage. The second 100 meters is the straight stage, which is your strong point. You can speed up slightly and bring the speed up to around 11 seconds to complete it.

For the first 22 meters, you need to control your speed to about 100 seconds, leaving some energy for sprinting. The next bend is still 12.5 meters, so don't make your movements too big and restrain your arm swing a little. Just run to about seconds.

You have to sprint the last 100 meters. Remember not to swing your arms loosely and keep your feet firmly planted. Don't let them collapse. Even if your opponent is ahead of you, don't panic. You have to keep your arms and feet coordinated and follow your own rhythm. Your breathing must keep up with the rhythm. As for the final result, it depends on how much strength you have when you sprint the last 100 meters.

"Now that we have two gold medals, you don't have to feel too much psychological pressure. Hahaha! We are still young and have plenty of opportunities!" Wang Xin said this, but he didn't think so in his heart.

He has seen too many young athletes who were gifted and had the chance to reach the top, but unfortunately died early due to injuries and did not get any honors. As a sports athlete, you have to become famous as early as possible, because you don’t know how good the next batch of athletes will be. You may be a gold medalist yesterday, but when you wake up the next day, a player who has never appeared has surpassed you. Just like this competition, Zhao Yun emerged as a dark horse.

Arriving at the gym, after roll call and grouping, they began to warm up. Zhao Yun was in Group D this time. It would probably be ten o'clock by the time he got there.

Under the organization of the on-site staff, all players in Group A entered the stadium to prepare for the competition.

The competition officially starts at nine o'clock.

"Dear viewers, now the 400th National Games is being broadcast live by Yandu TV. The men's m track and field qualifying competition has begun. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Li Zhilong took the lead and gave no chance to his opponents from the start to the end. Congratulations to Li Zhilong for winning the first place with a time of 46.64 seconds. "

"The Group B match will begin immediately."

"On your marks, get set!" Bang!

"Let us congratulate Chang Pengben from Group B for crossing the finish line in first place with a time of 46.36 seconds."

Then in the Group C competition, Wang Liangyu won the first place with a time of 46.48 seconds.

At 10:10, the athletes in Group D entered the field to warm up.

Under the guidance of the staff, Zhao Yun entered the field to warm up.

"Next is the men's track and field 400m Group D competition. This group includes Zhao Yun's competition! After Zhao Yun won the gold medals in the 400m and 400m events, he is now in the m event. Can this king make achievements in the m event like he did in the first two games? Let's wait and see." The host said excitedly.

"Everyone, get ready! Set!" Zhao Yun immediately got ready to start.

boom!

"We saw Zhao Yun leading the way. In the first 100 meters, no one could surpass this new 100-meter king."

"Entering the first straight-line stage, Zhao Yun began to accelerate and was still ahead of the other players."

"At the second corner, Zhao Yun's speed slowed down a bit, but he still maintained the leading position thanks to the advantage in the front."

"The most exciting moment is coming, the last 100 meters straight."

"Zhao Yun accelerated and is still accelerating. He is already three meters ahead and has crossed the finish line. Congratulations to Zhao Yun for winning the first place with a time of 46.42 seconds! Guo Zhongze followed closely behind with a time of 46.86 seconds and also crossed the finish line. The two guys born in 96 took the top two places, and it feels like they are competing against each other."

"This result is a sure thing for him to enter the semi-finals. Congratulations to Zhao Yun for entering the semi-finals. I didn't expect Zhao Yun's 400m result to be so good!"

(For the preliminaries and semifinals, the first place is taken to enter, rather than the ranking to determine who enters the next stage. For example, if you get the first place in the group but the score is outside the top 16, you still can't enter the next stage.)

Zhao Yun felt so tired after running. After rushing out of the finish line, he bent over and gasped. 400 meters and 100 meters are two completely different concepts. Why do soldiers prefer a five-kilometer cross-country run to a 200-meter obstacle run? After running this thing at full speed, it feels like there is only one breath left. However, Zhao Yun is not too worried about the physical strength problem, because he has a mall. If he runs out of physical strength, he can buy physical strength potions.

The reporters came to the sidelines and started snapping photos. Zhao Yun had already attracted some media attention. Because of his previous two championships, some media had also arranged for people to come to this less-noticed qualifier, but not many.

A short-haired beautiful reporter ran over to Zhao Yun and said, "Hello, Zhao Yun, I am Yang Shu, a reporter from Beishan Sports."

"Hello!" Zhao Yun said after taking a look at the woman who exuded a sense of competence.

"Can I do an interview after your 400m final?"

Zhao Yun looked at this beauty who looked exactly like Chen Farong, and was stunned when he heard what she said. Wasn't the reporter of Beishan Sports Li Jingjing? Why was she replaced? Was there some conspiracy?

In fact, Zhao Yun was right. As frontline reporters for Beishan Sports, Yang Shu and Li Jingjing had been fighting over and overtly for resources. Both of them were capable and beautiful women. The leader liked it best when there was fighting overtly and covertly below, and he was trying to balance things out from above.

Yang Shu was not at the front because of something else, so Zhao Yun popped up and caused a sensation on the Internet. The name of the interview was Li Jingjing, and she felt unbalanced, so she immediately found her leader and told him about it. The leader saw that Li Jingjing had already been in the limelight, and she couldn't be in the limelight anymore, because it would affect her position. So he agreed to let Yang Shu interview Zhao Yun's 400-meter race.

"I'm not sure whether my condition will be suitable for the interview at that time. We'll talk about it when the time comes!" Zhao Yun politely rejected him.

"It's okay! If you're not in good condition, I can postpone the interview. It doesn't have to be done on the same day." Yang Shu said unwillingly.

Zhao Yun looked at the girl who looked like his idol and didn't know how to reject her.

Seeing Zhao Yun's hesitation, Yang Shu knew something was going to happen. She immediately took out her business card from her bag and stuffed it into Zhao Yun's hand. She also held Zhao Yun's hand and said coquettishly, "Promise me. I will give you something good."

Hearing the word "sister", Zhao Yun was a little dazed. Born in a rural family and the only child, he had no way to make money if his parents embraced him, and no way to embrace him if he made money. Zhao Yun always hoped to have more family love. As for the benefits, Zhao Yun didn't think about them at all.

"Okay! I'll contact you then!" Zhao Yun put away the business card.

When Yang Shu saw that Zhao Yun agreed, he smiled with a look of success.

"Okay then! I'll be waiting for your call. If you have anything that makes you unhappy, you can call me at any time. I might be able to help you out. After all, I majored in psychology in college. I can help you with anything you need."

"Well! You're not going to interview this time?" Zhao Yun said with a smile.

"I have already interviewed!" Yang Shu said meaningfully.

Next is the F group competition, Liu Xiaosheng won the first place with a score of 46.46 seconds, and Xu Zizhou won the second place with a score of 46.47 seconds.

In the Group G competition, Gao Dongshi won the first place with a time of 46.68 seconds, but the post-95 talented young athlete Yang Lei also ran a good time of 46.72 seconds and won the second place.
