Born to Run

On August 16, the dusk grew stronger.

In the men's 400m semifinal that just started at 19:00, Yeqin successfully advanced to the men's 400m final with a time of 45.59.

In the Chaoyang Sports Center, the lights are like daylight, and the more than 8,000 spectators are already full. Compared with the first day of the competition, the enthusiasm of the audience is not diminished, but on the contrary, it is more and more high.

Although the score of 45.59 is still far from the best score he has created, the audience present has already seen it. Even with such a score, Yeqin has far surpassed the other players. For young athletes under the age of 20, it is already a pretty good result.

From yesterday to today’s game, many spectators will even have a feeling that adults are ups and downs and children when they see Ye Qin’s performance, even if Ye Qin is not the oldest athlete in the game, even 20. Not one year old, but the level and temperament shown by a young athlete made the audience's enthusiasm more and more high.

Everyone likes to win and likes their own players to beat other athletes, and in this traditionally weak track and field event, there has been such a Chinese who can hang other athletes, even if it is only the World Youth Championship, it still makes countless audiences feel it. Excited.

In the indoor lounge area, the sound of slapped muscles slapped one after another.

Ye Qin was sitting on a chair. Zhuang Wei and Chen Zhongzhou were relaxing Ye Qin's leg muscles on the left and right.

"Will it feel difficult?" Chen Zhongzhou glanced at Ye Qin after slapping Ye Qin's muscles and asked, "If it doesn't work, the team promised to give up in the 400-meter final tomorrow."

In the men's 400m semifinals just now, although Ye Chin still kept his energy in running, considering the men's 100m event that is about to start, and the three games tomorrow, he dare not care about muscle rest and relaxation.

"It's okay." Ye Qin shook his head. "The level of the main players is not high. I have reservations. It is lower than the average training intensity. Besides, two matches a day, three matches or something. I haven't experienced it."

"Don't be careless." Zhuang Wei kneaded Ye Qin's ankle and Achilles tendon at the end, stood up and wiped his sweat, "You are young now, and many things can't be felt, but if the intensity is too high, it will cause Excessive muscle fatigue can still easily cause injuries. Be careful in this regard."

"I will pay attention." Ye Qin nodded. He is no longer a newcomer who knows nothing. When training with Nie Fangping, basically all training and competitions need to be carried out under the strict requirements of Nie Fangping. Now Ye Qin Qin is relatively clear about his training plan and schedule.

The intensity of the World Youth Championships these days is not small, but because of his opponents, except for the men’s 100-meter preliminaries on the first day, he ran a bit more vigorously, and made a lot of reservations for the next races. .

Athletes are most vulnerable to injury. One is that the training intensity is too strong, causing muscle fatigue, and then a little careless, excessive force; the other is on the field, the warm-up is not enough, or the mentality is a little tight, and there are strong opponents. Stress, going all out during the game, causing muscle strain. Take sprinters as an example, more often are Achilles tendon tears, muscle strains, and groin strains.

This is determined by the characteristics and characteristics of the sport, and many injuries may be minor injuries at the beginning, but because there is no way to fully recover, and training and competitions are carried out, they become more and more serious over time. In the end, it affects the sports state or gives the athletes Caused a psychological shadow, can only withdraw sadly.

"Let's do what you can." Chen Zhongzhou looked at Ye Qin's face, and then persuaded him, "This is the first time you have such a competition intensity. You have already shown your strength, and you should pay more attention to your body. ."

Seeing that although running 100 meters, 200 meters and 400 meters a day, the combined intensity is not too big, but after all, it is a competition, and there is still a gap between normal training. Training, adjustment, rest, mentality, etc., may go back and forth. It is normal to run three to five kilometers or even tens of thousands of meters a day, but the competition may be just a few games, which affects the state of competition.

Yechin has always had a scale for this in his heart. The lower level of the competition is basically no problem. If the competition is like last year's Helsinki World Championships, he will participate in at most two events. The level of the players in the competition is high, and one event is fine. If you have two events, facing a high-level athlete, if you don't adjust a little state, you may lose his chance of winning the championship.

Like the men’s 400m final at the Helsinki World Championships last year, Yechin himself later thought that if he was only participating in one event at the time, although the hope of winning the men’s 400m championship is still unlikely, there should be a chance to go further in the rankings. .

Conversely, if he did not participate in the men's 400m race, Yechin also felt that his results in the men's 200m might be better. After all, there was the excitement of top players such as Jax Trin and Wallace Spielmont.

"By the way, Brother Zhuang, go to Athens with me next month."

Ye Qin stood up and moved a little, suddenly remembering something, and said to Zhuang Wei, who was full of sweat.

The interval between the men’s 400m semi-finals and the men’s 100m finals was 40 minutes. As soon as he got off the field, he quickly returned to the rest area. Zhuang Wei and Chen Zhongzhou quickly relaxed his muscles and stood up to do it. Two muscle stretches, ready to sign up and enter the venue again.

"Athens?" Zhuang Wei scratched his head. "Didn't the team say that they don't need it?"

"Need it." Ye Qin smiled, "I went to the United States because coach Sun Chaosheng was also there. Liu Yangyu's warm-up and muscle relaxation have always been his own. I also did it with him, but I went to Germany in September. There will be more people, so he may not have time to supervise me."

This year Ye Qin went to the Eugene and New York stations in the United States. Only Ye Qin and Chen Zhongzhou went out, and the two followed Liu Yangyu's team. Zhuang Wei did not follow.

"Then I will succeed." Zhuang Wei smiled excitedly, "As long as the team arranges for me to go, I must be fine."

Ye Qin smiled hard and looked at Chen Zhongzhou, "Brother Chen controls all my matches and the formation arrangements, and he has the final say."

Chen Zhongzhou nodded and looked at Zhuang Wei's advice: "You are a physiotherapist from Yeqin's team. You can go, but don't run around. You didn't follow along during this year's trip to the United States. You probably know why. ."

Last year’s trip to the United States, Zhuang Wei, as a member of Yeqin’s team, traveled with him, but left the team alone several times and went out to wander around. In the end, coach Sun Chaosheng, the leader of the team, was very upset~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Yeqin this year. In the game between Eugene and New York in the United States, Coach Sun took Ye Qin and Chen Zhongzhou directly without letting Zhuang Wei go with him.

Another grand prix is ​​basically a one-shot victory. The intensity of the competition is not very high. Unlike the Olympic World Championships, which lasts for many days, it is not a problem without a physical therapist.

"That can't, we must obey the arrangement." Zhuang Wei smiled slyly.

After Yeqin participated in the World Youth Championship, there are only a few games this year. One is the IAAF World Cup in Athens on September 17, the other is the Super Grand Prix at Shenghai Station, and the other is Doha in December. Asian Games.

There was originally an IAAF final on September 9, but Yechin has only participated in the Eugene Grand Prix and the New York Grand Prix so far this year. His total points in the World Athletics Tour are not enough and he has not reached the top 7 rankings. , Cannot enter.

Yechin must participate in the IAAF World Cup. The level of this event is very high. The IAAF World Cup is held every four years and includes men’s and women’s events. A total of eight teams compete, including five continents. The team is composed of three national teams. If there is a ninth track in the schedule, the host is also allowed to participate as a representative team.

The continental team is Africa, Asia, Oceania, the rest of the Americas (North America, Central America and the Caribbean Sports Association and the League of South American Nations) and the rest of Europe.

The three national teams are the former European Cup winners and runners-up, plus the United States team to qualify for the World Cup national team.

2006 was the 10th IAAF World Cup competition. Later generations changed it in 2010, excluding individual national teams and renamed the IAAF Intercontinental Cup. Remember the website of this site, biquxu, for easy reading next time, or enter "" on Baidu to enter this site
