Born to Run

Chapter 348: Start to move towards personal peak

At 17:55 on the evening of March 10th, the men's 400m preliminaries for the 11th World Indoor Track and Field Championships officially started. Yeqin was placed in the third group of the men's 400m preliminaries.

In this group, he did not encounter many strong opponents who are known to him. The indoor track and field championships are lower than the World Championships and the Olympic Games in terms of level, and many of the players who participated in the competition are also less well-known in the international arena.

When Yechin appeared on the field with the third group of players, he could see that the Moscow Olympic Indoor Stadium was filled with a large number of Russian spectators.

As a large-scale sports event held in winter, it is still very popular and supported by local people. Yeqin's appearance also made many Russian audiences shine. Although I dare not say that all the Russian audiences know him, he is still familiar to many people in Russia, a powerful track and field country.

And among the more than 16,000 seats present, there were hundreds of local Chinese and overseas Chinese in Moscow. As the first Asian and Chinese sprint world champion, Yeqin's influence has gradually radiated out. Although there was no men's 200-meter race in this indoor competition, many people still came to watch the race because of Ye Qin's participation in order to show their support.

When he saw the bright red five-star red flag floating in a corner of the auditorium, Ye Qin's heart was very different. Participating in the National Games in China may not feel so strongly about this, but in domestic competitions, every time an athlete sees his national flag, he can always have a sense of belonging and honor that bursts from the bottom of his heart.

The feeling that no matter where you participate in the competition in the world, the people of your own country will always support you. For an athlete, it is really special.

Standing on the starting line of the indoor track, Yeqin rushed out after the gunfire rang out.

On the 200-meter indoor track, after the first lap, Yechin won and ran to the forefront, leading the other five players on the field. On the second lap, Ye Qin controlled the center of gravity, and the pace of running gradually increased with the corners, and finally crossed the finish line first.

The score was 46.23 seconds, the group first.

Many Chinese and overseas Chinese who made a special trip to watch the men’s 400-meter preliminaries instantly boiled in the stands. Many people have seen Yechin galloping on various race tracks on TV, but in reality, they watched it live. The match to Yeqin is still quite rare.

After finishing the 400-meter preliminaries of this group of men, Ye Chin waved to the position where the flag was deployed. After expressing his gratitude, he left the stadium directly.

His goal of coming to the Indoor Track and Field Championships this time is very clear, just to compete for the championship. He has excellent cornering skills. There are no players from the 400m final of last year's Helsinki World Championships, such as Jimmy Warner and Andrew Luke, in this indoor competition. Under the circumstances, he believes he is still very confident.

After changing his clothes off the court, Ye Qin quickly returned to the stands on the sidelines, found the positions of coaches Liu Yangyu and Sun Chaosheng, and watched the next game.

One of the most important is the men's 60-meter race. This event was attended by Wen Yongyi of the Chinese Athletic Team. It's just that although Wen Yongyi ran very smoothly in the preliminaries, he did not perform well in the semifinals and eventually missed the final with a score of 6.70.

In the men’s 60-meter final that started at 19:40 in the evening, the champion was won by American Leonard Scott with a time of 6.50. The runner-up was Russian Andrei Ye Peisheng with a time of 6.52. . This is Andri Ye Peisheng's personal best, and it also set a national record of 60 meters for men in Russia.

March 11, the second day of the World Indoor Track and Field Championships.

Today, the Chinese national team participated in more events in this World Championships. Before Yeqin’s men’s 400m semi-finals began, news came from the team. In the women’s 60m hurdles event, Chinese player Feng Yun failed to qualify for the final, but he won the top three in the group with a time of 8.04.04 in the preliminaries. At the same time, it broke the national record of women's 60-meter hurdles of 8.06.06 that has not changed since 1994.

In addition, Shi Dongpeng, another general in the men's 60-meter hurdles event, stopped in the second round of the semi-finals and failed to advance to the final when Liu Yangyu failed to play. But he also tied his personal best time of 7 seconds 63 in the 60-meter hurdle in this game.

At 18:15 in the evening, the men's 400m semifinal kicked off.

In the two semifinals, Yeqin played in the second semifinals.

In the semi-finals, the players' strengths have obviously risen to a higher level, and only the top three in each group can advance to tomorrow's finals. The athletes are basically struggling to compete.

Yechin's performance in the semi-finals was also clearly better than the previous preliminaries, and finally won the group first in the second semi-final with a time of 45.96 seconds.

"Don't be careless in tomorrow's final. Although many masters have not come to the 400m indoor competition this time, you are not without opponents.

After getting off the arena, Ye Qin found Liu Yangyu and Sun Chaosheng in the audience again. As soon as he sat down, Sun Chaosheng walked to Ye Qin's side and said seriously:

"The veteran of Grenada in the first group of the semi-finals, Aylin Franschick, ran for 45.86 seconds. It can be seen that there are obviously reservations. There is also the California-Morff of Botswana. His performance in the preliminary and semi-finals. It's easy."

Grenada's veteran Aylin Franchik is 30 years old this year. He did not perform well at the Helsinki World Championships due to his personal status. He was eliminated in the semifinals and did not enter the finals.

Yeqin also failed to play against him, but Aylin-Franschick was the fourth place in the men's 400m race at the 2004 Athens Olympics. Yeqin, who had not yet fully grown up at that time, even had the preliminaries. Can't break through.

Hearing Sun Chaosheng's explanation, Ye Qin also brought up a lot of relaxation in his heart. This time the Chinese team's indoor track and field World Championships in Moscow, Liu Yangyu had the last chance to win the gold medal. If there is no 200-meter race, but only 400 meters, Ye Qin can only be regarded as a contestant with a championship and a medal. But with Liu Yangyu's injury, he basically became the most important person to win the World Championships this year.

Not long after Ye Qin sat in the stands, he played the men's 1500m finals and women's 60m hurdles one after another, and then came to tonight's highlight, the men's 60m hurdles final.

Sitting next to Liu Yangyu, Ye Qin could obviously feel the shock in Liu Yangyu's heart. This 60-meter hurdle should have become one of his most important competitions.

After winning the men’s 110-meter hurdles champion in the 2004 Olympic Games and the 2005 men’s 110-meter hurdles World Championships (this book is space-time), this indoor world championships men’s 60-meter hurdles can win the championship again~www.wuxiaspot.com~ That would have achieved Liu Yangyu's title of Grand Slam in a large-scale track and field event.

In the 2004 Indoor World Championships, Liu Yangyu lost to Alan Johnson with a time of 7.43 seconds. This indoor World Championships was originally the last chance. Now because of injuries, he has to wait two more years before he has a chance.

For athletes, sometimes the individual state is completely inaccurate. After some opportunities are lost, they don't know if they will reappear later.

After the final result of the men's 60-meter hurdles of the current indoor World Championships came out, Liu Yangyu looked at the final champion by American Tramel with a time of 7.43 seconds. His regret was overwhelming.

"In this game, if Yang Yu is not injured, the championship still has a great chance." After watching the 60-meter hurdles, coach Sun Chaosheng turned to Liu Yangyu and Ye Qin and said.

Liu Yangyu nodded slightly. Although it's hard to say something like this, Trammel's championship results are similar to his in 2004, and he is still very confident in himself.

"That Cuban rookie Robles did a good job. He ran for 7.46 seconds. I heard he was only 19 years old! I guess he will become a rival of you in the future." Coach Sun Chaosheng said and pointed to the runner-up in the 60-meter hurdle. The implication was nothing more than a reminder of the opponent Liu Yangyu had to face.

"I can achieve this result even at his age." Liu Yangyu smiled and pointed to Ye Qin again. "Ye Qin is not about the same age as him. He has already won the world championship."

Ye Qin followed and smiled. According to his age, he is already 19 years old this year. If he is not old, he is 20. In track and field, this age marks that he has gradually entered a stage of maturity and has begun to move towards his personal peak.
