Born to Run

Chapter 407: New grades and changes for everyone

? "Onyourmarks!"

The familiar password sounded again, and the noisy and boiling sound inside and outside the arena became a little quieter.

The New York Grand Prix is ​​very exciting, but there is no doubt that the sprint in the track is the most eye-catching.

The men's 100 meters race that ended an hour ago has already opened everyone's eyes, and the men's 200 meters after an hour is equally eye-catching.

Wallace Spielmont now ranks among the top two in the world in the men's 200 meters, second only to Jason Gaby. His running skills and handsome and individual appearance in the second half attracted a lot of attention. The favorite of native American audiences.

In the men’s 200m race, the same as the previous few times, Yechin, the 2005 World Championship champion, participated. In the previous Grand Prix, Wallace Spilmon mostly lost against Yechin. This time It's not just Wallace Spilmon who wants to win Yechin, the audience also hopes that he can win.

The 2007 New York Grand Prix can be regarded as an early confrontation of these top players, followed by numerous Golden Leagues and the most important World Championships.

The victory or defeat of every game actually has a certain impact on the psychological factors of an athlete.

From now on, if you can maintain victory in the face of your opponents, you will be able to gain an advantage in the following World Championships to a certain extent. Like today's top athletes, many times the gap between each other is not too big, and more things are still seen. State and play.

Wallace Spielmont, standing in front of the starting line, was the eighth road, at the frontmost position. He could clearly feel the encouragement and enthusiasm of the audience in the stands.

"I want to win this game. I want to win Yechin."

Wallace Spilmon said silently to himself, his eyes looked at the curved track in the distance. In the men's 200m event, his best result has surpassed Yechin, but he faced Yechin's head-on race. , He hasn't won.

He needs a face-to-face victory to lay his psychological advantage.

In the stands, as the game was about to begin, the shouts of the audience gradually quieted down.

Jason Gaby, sitting in the stands, looked at the many players in the middle of the field, his eyes gleaming with vigilance.

The talented men's 100-meter race, because the overwind speed failed to break the world record has passed, and his mentality has been adjusted.

He believes in his strength and abilities. Since he failed to succeed this time, he will definitely succeed next time, and the next time.

What he wants to focus on now is the men's 200-meter race. If it is to say that the men's 100-meter event is for higher honor and attract more attention, it will make his career more brilliant.

Then the men’s 200-meter event is one of my favorites. Since I was a teenager, I have been practicing the men's 200 meters, and my track and field career has also relied on his outstanding performance in the men's 200 meters.

Now, he wants to see how his opponents are doing.

It's June 2nd. Twenty days later, it will be the National Outdoor Track and Field Championships. In less than two months, it will be the World Track and Field Championships.

The contest is coming soon!

In this year's international track, Jason Gaby not only challenged Asafaville's dominance in the men's 100-meter event, he also hopes to defeat many competitors in the men's 200-meter event.

And he can be regarded as a competitor, at this moment are on the men's 200-meter runway at Icahn Stadium.

...

"SET!"

On the edge of the track, the starter reminded the players to prepare.

Inside and outside the Icahn Stadium, the noise and noise dropped several decibels in an instant.

Ye Qin pressed his hands on the starting line, leaned over and lowered his head, looking at the somewhat rough track, when he heard the prepared command, he stood up naturally and made a starting posture.

Snapped!

The starting gunfire sounded.

The audience's eyes focused on the middle of the arena, waiting for a wonderful battle to be staged.

Suddenly, just after the gunshots rang out, a referee on the sidelines suddenly played a flag for a rush.

Ye Qin slowly slowed down and let out a long sigh. At this moment, the tension that had just been loosened.

He raised his head and glanced ahead, shook his head slightly, adjusted his state silently, and walked back to the starting line.

The eyes of the other athletes swept across the eighth pass inadvertently, and then looked down at their runway, adjusting back to their own state as quickly as possible.

"Snatched away!"

"Wallace Spielmont ran away!"

At this moment, a long sigh suddenly broke out in the stands on the sidelines.

At the starting line of the eighth track, Wallace Spielmont walked back a little annoyed. He looked at the sidelines and at his own running gear. For a while, he felt a little weird.

Many American spectators sighed for a while. After all, they just gathered their minds and prepared to watch the game, but the result came to an abrupt end. This was not a pleasant thing anyway.

However, there are still many American audiences who quickly adjusted their moods after seeing that the person who ran off was Wallace Spielmont. Instead, many people called out Wallace's name and applauded the opponent.

"Wallace is nervous!"

In the stands, Jason Gaby frowned slightly when he saw Wallace Spielmont start the run.

In his impression, there was almost no rush for Wallace Spielmont. One of the most important points is that Wallace’s technical feature is that he wins the second half of the game. The probability of running is very small.

Moreover, Wallace’s mentality has always been relatively stable. In the NCAA era, Jason Gaby discovered that Wallace Spielmont has a big heart, and his performance is very stable most of the time. .

However, at this moment, he didn't really feel surprised that Wallace really ran away.

Sprinters are subjected to various internal and external pressures. It is normal for a sprinter to miss a hand at the start. Even the best athletes will inevitably have a start during their entire career.

It’s just that Jason Gaby saw more things from Wallace Spilmon’s start-up in this game. At least, Wallace Spilmon’s heart is far more concerned about this game. More than he thought at first.

In about a minute, after a brief psychological adjustment of the players on the field, the game started again.

Ye Qin still did not pay special attention to the state of other players, he just kept his high concentration, and then silently waited for the gunfire to sound.

Snapped!

Soon the gunfire of the game sounded.

But after the gunshots sounded, there was a huge boo again on the court.

This time the boo was much louder than the previous boo, and even many people in the stands scolded.

Before the men's 200-meter starting line, the red flag of violation was raised-someone ran away again!

This time it’s no longer Wallace Spielmont, but Daniel Bailey of Antigua and Barbuda on the seventh. The black athlete held his hands when he saw that it was his start. His head was full of annoyance.

Yechin is not familiar with Daniel Bailey, but the Antigua and Barbuda sprinter has a good relationship with Youssé Bot. Daniel Bailey is trained at the Glen Mills Runner Club. And Youssé Bot is a training partner.

In 2004, Daniel Bailey also participated in the World Youth Championship in Grosseto, Italy, but the opponent was participating in the men's 100m race. In the semi-finals, Daniel Bailey ran the best result of 10.19 seconds. Unfortunately, in the finals, he failed to continue to perform well and only got the fourth place in the men's 100 meters of the World Youth Championship.

Amidst the boos from the audience, Daniel Bailey could not conceal the loss on his face and had no choice but to leave the runway.

Standing on the fifth starting line, Youssé Bot, who saw Daniel Bailey leaving the runway, had a look of helplessness on his face.

Daniel Bailey's strength is good, and Yousseh Bot's age is almost the same. Both have made their debut in the IAAF, but Daniel Bailey's performance is not as good as him, but he is still a strong sprinter .

At this time, the IAAF has already implemented the "one shot system" for starting, but it has not yet been fully implemented. It is still the original first shot starting warning, and the second shot will be sent off directly.

In this New York Grand Prix, Daniel Bailey originally wanted to compete with many masters in order to get a breakthrough and get more attention from the IAAF, but it is a pity that after Wallace-Spirmone’s start-up, The opponent could only be sent off for the second time.

Back to the starting line again, this time it was obvious that the remaining seven players looked much more nervous than before.

Ye Qin didn’t have much experience in starting and starting and running. He participated in the men’s 200m and men’s 400m races before. Since the requirements for starting are not particularly high, there are not many situations like this in the race. .

However, in the men’s 100-meter and men’s 110-meter hurdles straight races, there are still quite a few start-ups. As Yechin learned, Asafaville was sent off at the Yokohama Grand Prix at the end of last year because of a rush and broke. The record of winning streak throughout the year. Liu Yangyu participated in the men's 110-meter hurdle, and there were three start-ups, and as many as two runners were sent off.

With a sigh of relief, Ye Qin gathered up a slightly nervous mood.

If Wallace Spielmont had the first shot and ran away, he was just a little wary at the time, but at this time, seeing Daniel Bailey being sent off, he still felt that he needed to be careful enough.

Sprint competition emphasizes the starting point. If there is no starting point, no matter how strong the competition is, there will be nothing in the competition.

"SET!"

The starter and referee on the sidelines looked at the seven players on the field, and once again issued the preparatory voice.

Inside and outside the Icahn Stadium, this time it was no longer as completely silent as before. The two rush runs distracted many spectators. At this time, many murmurs lingered over the stadium, forming a buzz. The waves of noise.

But the seven players present need to eliminate internal pressure and external interference, and devote themselves to the game.

Since Ye Qin started the men's 100-meter race, he has further strengthened his focus and mentality at the start. At this moment, he has paid extra attention to the gunshots that are about to sound.

Snapped!

The gunfire of the game sounded again!

Ye Qin made sure that he heard the starting guns clearly, and then started dashing out of the runway.

His starting reaction and starting speed are much slower than usual due to the impact of the start, but the other runners are the same, and everyone has reservations at the start.

Fortunately, this is the men's 200-meter race. Although the start was slower, the impact on the entire race was not as great as expected.

Ten meters, twenty meters, thirty meters...

Ye Qin adjusted his center of gravity at the start of the corner and steadily began to increase his speed. This men's 200-meter race is not as important and focused as the men's 100-meter race, but as long as the game gunshots sounded. When others are on the runway, he will take them seriously.

What's more, in this men's 200-meter race, he is not without opponents.

Whether it is Youssef Bot or Wallace Spielmont, the strength of the two is enough to pose a threat to him. If he wants to win, he must be in his best form.

After thirty or forty meters, Wallace Spielmont, who started at the corner, began to raise his head and entered the high-speed phase of the run on the way.

He is on the eighth lane, just like the previous three people playing together. There is no way to know where his opponent is in the corner. All he can do is to run as much as possible in the front corner. Out of advantage.

When Yechin entered the mid-run stage in the forty meters, he could clearly see the position of Wallace Spielmont because there was no Daniel Bailey in the seventh track to block his vision.

Yechin can clearly feel the speed of Wallace Spilmon in the first half of the run, which is no weaker than he was in the IAAF World Cup last year.

Behind Wallace-Spilmon and Yechin, Yousei Bot, who is in the rear at this time, also noticed the position of the two. Compared with Yechin, Youssei Bot’s running habit is more. Will pay attention to the position of the players around.

Especially the players he sees as opponents, he pays attention to the opponent's dynamics almost all the time. Obviously, Yechin and Wallace-Spilmon are in a very good state of the 200-meter men. Although they are far apart, he can basically judge the speed of the two people from the mutual distance and position.

Seventy meters, eighty meters, ninety meters...

The seven players gradually moved away from each other in the corners, even because of the number of stretches before the start, but at this time, everyone present could already see the players' mutual positions.

Wallace Spielmont on the eighth, Yechin on the sixth, and Youssef Bot on the fifth, the three of them clearly showed their absolute strength a head higher than his players.

When they were about 80 meters away from the runway, the three of them had a clear gap with the other players.

One hundred meters, one hundred and ten meters...

The audience in the Icahn Stadium, who had been somewhat less enthusiastic because of the two start-ups, gradually became more heated as the game began.

Especially when it comes to the corners and straights, the gaps between the players due to the number of advances are about to be completely smoothed out at this time, and the specific positions of the players on the field will soon be very clear.

Turn into the straight!

The first player to rush into the straight is...Ye Qin!

After starting and accelerating training, Ye Qin's current skills in the first half of the race have been greatly strengthened, especially when running from the 50 meters on the way, the speed is very fast.

In the men's 100-meter event just now, with a wind speed of 2.2 meters per second, he ran an amazing result of 9 seconds 80. His current ability in the first half has reached a world-class level, which is better than Wallace Spilmon and Youssé Bot.

After Yechin entered the straight, followed by Youssé Bot and Wallace Spielmont, the two were almost tied together, one position behind Yechin, and they entered the straight together.

The noise of the whole body reached the highest at this moment. As many track and field enthusiasts expected before the game, the men's 200-meter race basically ended up competing for the top three among the three.

At this time, in the stands on the sidelines, Jason Gaby couldn't help standing up after the three rushed into the straight.

He knows Yeqin, Wallace Spilmon and Youssef Bot, especially Yeqin, whose technical characteristics Jason Gaby know well.

In the men's 200m World Championships in 2005, Ye Chin was able to win the championship in the end, relying on the second half of the decisive victory. But now that Yechin's strength in the men's 100 meters has improved, it is obvious that the opponent's speed has also improved a lot in the first half. He remembered that before that, at this distance, Yechin is still slightly weaker than Wallace-Spilmont. Yes, but now, it has been possible to see Yechin clearly surpassing Wallace Spilmon.

Eighty, seventy, sixty meters from the finish line...

Ye Qin looked at the finish line ahead, and did not relax at all, keeping the speed at his highest all the time.

He could feel the figure chasing by Youssé Bot on the fifth lane on the left behind him, and the pressure on him from the eighth lane Wallace Spielmont.

This kind of competition made Yeqin feel extra nervous and concentrated in his heart. Only when facing a strong enough opponent, will his ability be fully forced out.

Fifty meters, forty meters, thirty meters...

Getting closer to the finish line...

Suddenly, at this stage, the speed of Wallace-Spilmon, who is behind Yechin on the eighth lane, seems to have slightly increased. When entering the sprint stage on the way, most of the players are basically in a decline in speed at this time. Stage, but Wallace Spielmont was able to maintain his high speed and slightly improved.

This is Wallace Spielmont’s ability to become the second most important weapon in the world in the men’s 200 meters. Youssé Bot glanced slightly to the right. At this moment, he also felt Wallace Spielmont. Pirmont's speed suddenly increased a little bit.

He wanted to catch up, but the speed of his feet seemed to have increased to the extreme, and he couldn't squeeze any more power.

And Yeqin, when Wallace-Spilmont entered the final sprint, and the speed was slightly increased, he mustered his last sprint and also accelerated the sprint forward.

Twenty meters, ten meters...

Cross the line!

The finish line timing board showed the results of this group of men’s 200m champions.

19 seconds 75!

Wind speed +1.3 m/s!

"Won!"

"The new individual is best!"

"It's another record!"

In the stands, Chen Zhongzhou and Sun Chaosheng and other Chinese team workers clapped enthusiastically when the results appeared.

Chen Zhongzhou was most excited when he saw this achievement. After Ye Qin focused on improving his start and acceleration, he made significant progress in the first half of the race. The result of this situation is obviously an improvement in strength.

At 19:75, although Ye Chin’s best time of 19:78 was an improvement of 0.03 seconds last year, Chen Zhongzhou knew how difficult it is to improve an athlete's level by one hundredth of a second after this stage.

After just a few tens of seconds, on the on-site timing card, this group of men's 200-meter results appeared:

1. The sixth way, Ye Qin, China, reaction 0.188, score of 19 seconds 75;

2. The eighth track, Wallace Spielmont, USA, reaction 0.174 seconds, score 19 seconds 82;

3. The fifth channel, Youssé Bot, Jamaica, reacted 0.179 seconds, scored 19 seconds 89;

4. The fourth channel, Christopher Williams, Jamaica, reaction 0.159, score 20 seconds 17;

5. The third channel, Marvin Anderson-Jamaica, the reaction was 0.156, the result was 20 seconds and 42;

6. The first line, Davis Button, the United States, reaction 0.178, score of 20 seconds 49;

7. The second line, Jordan-Waden, the United States, reaction 0.152, score 20 seconds 50;

8. The seventh track, Daniel Bailey, Antigua and Barbuda, score DNF;

After the men's 200m score in this group came out on the big screen, Wallace-Spilmon glanced at Ye Qin's back, his face a little helpless.

He played well in this game. The result of 19.82 seconds was one of the best results in his personal career. Unfortunately, he still failed to win.

Yeqin's state and strength are much better than he thought. At 19.75 seconds, Wallace-Spilmon himself remembers that this should be Yeqin's best performance. It seems that this opponent, the more In the face of a strong opponent, the better you can burst out.

Youssep Bor was panting. After seeing the results, he rushed forward with a smile and hugged Wallace Spielmont, then touched Yeqin's head and laughed at Chao Ye. Chin congratulated.

But after turning around, his smile gradually faded.

It was another men's 200-meter race. He faced Yechin and Wallace Spilmon, two opponents and friends, and once again became a foil, only to get a third place.

The result of 19.89 seconds is only one hundredth of a second, compared with the 19.88 seconds he created in the Lausanne Super Grand Prix last year. But in that game, he also got third place, first and second in front were Xavier Carter and Jason Gaby.

"Yuse Bot, do you still want to continue to be a foil?"

Before leaving the track, Youssé Bot's heart surged with a sense of victory. He has entered the ranks of the world's top athletes, but in the same game, if there is Yechin~www.wuxiaspot.com~Jason -In the case of Gaby and Wallace Spielmont, he rarely beats a few people head-on.

"The World Championships will be in less than two months, and the Olympics will be in another year, Youssé Bot, do you still want to stage the 2004 Olympic Games?"

Thinking of the 2004 Athens Olympic Games' defeat in the men's 200m race, Youssé Bot couldn't help clenching his fist slightly.

At that time, he was the youngest talented player with high hopes from Jamaica. Unfortunately, he was eliminated in the first round of the men's 200 meters in the Athens Olympics because of a leg injury.

This caused great repercussions throughout Jamaica at the time. Countless people who originally supported and liked him, because they were disappointed, turned from support to questioning.

The experience of that time made Youssef Bot realize the warmth of human feelings, and also made him a clear understanding of his future career, and he had the idea of ​​running for himself first and then the motherland.

But even so, for the Olympics, Youssé Bot still has a peculiar feeling. He once ushered in the biggest failure of his life in the Olympic Games, but now, he wants to win it back in the Olympic Games!
