Born to Run

? March 7, 2008, Valencia, Spain.

Inside the Louis Puig Stadium, there was a lot of vocals and excitement.

The 6,500 on-site grandstand seats were completely occupied by the enthusiastic Spanish spectators at the moment, and a loud noise rang out in the stadium from time to time.

The 2008 Indoor Track and Field Championships are being held in full swing in the Louis Puig Stadium. In the middle of the 250-meter painted concrete bike path, the men's 60-meter preliminaries are about to begin.

On the bottom row of seats in the stadium stands, Yuan Guohua and Chen Zhongzhou were watching the upcoming game nervously.

Coach Sun Chaosheng, who was sitting next to the two of them, looked at them with some curiosity and asked, "I don't know what kind of results Yechin can achieve in the 60 meters this time? I heard that your winter training in the United States is very effective? "

"It's very good." Yuan Guohua nodded, "You should have taken Liu Yangyu with you at the beginning. We rarely see some advanced equipment, among other things."

"That's a missed opportunity." Sun Chaosheng replied with a smile, pointed to the track and field stadium, and continued, "I remember that Ye Qin has not run 60 meters a few times, and his technical characteristics are also biased towards midway running and late sprinting. If you fail to win the championship..."

"Ye Qin has this pressure, but Liu Yangyu doesn't have it." Yuan Guohua smiled and shook his head back.

Internationally, the top sprinters who have generally won the men's 100 and 200m world championships at the World Championships rarely return to participate in the men's indoor world championships.

Of course, this is not absolute.

It's just the state and level of the athletes. After reaching a certain level, they basically go up. Except for regular events, there are very few people who go down.

One is that although the 60-meter sprint is also a sprint, if you lose, the reputation of the already famous 100-meter athlete will still be somewhat hurt. Including top 100-meter athletes such as Morris Green and Jax Trin, they all competed before they won the Olympic championship, or after participating in one session, they would not participate again.

Improper time is one aspect. The most important thing is that the controllability of 60 meters is smaller than that of 100 meters. It is true that if you are not paying attention, you may make mistakes and be surpassed by other opponents.

When Sun Chaosheng heard Yuan Guohua mention Liu Yangyu, he didn't speak any more, thinking about the 60-meter hurdles competition tomorrow.

The significance of Liu Yangyu's participation in this competition is naturally different from Ye Qin. Ye Qin's purpose is to test his success in winter training.

Liu Yangyu was determined to win the 60-meter hurdles championship at the World Championships. In the 2006 World Championships 60-meter hurdles, Liu Yangyu missed his most likely championship year because of an accidental injury after the Spring Festival.

This year is very important for Liu Yangyu. From the perspective of an athlete, it is even more important than the Olympic Games held in Yenching this year.

Because as long as he wins the men's 60-meter hurdles at the Indoor World Championships, Liu Yangyu will truly win the hurdles Grand Slam. World records, Olympic champions, world championships outdoor and indoor champions, such achievements are the top performance even in the world.

This year, Liu Yangyu wants to win the men's 60-meter indoor World Championships. This is the best chance, or even the last chance.

Liu Yangyu is 25 years old this year. In track and field sports, especially running and jumping sports, generally speaking, the peak state of athletes should be around 22-23 years old.

This age is the easiest to create good results. Later, due to the cumulative impact of age and injuries, it becomes difficult to create better results. After the age of 25, it is very difficult to say whether you can continue to be in good shape.

Of course, this is not absolute, but the overall situation is relatively speaking. Athletes like Carl Lewis, Morris Green and Alan Johnson basically have this characteristic.

In the future, it basically depends on the athlete's injury, condition, and the degree of personal physical maintenance.

...

In the arena, Ye Qin stood in front of the men's 60-meter starting line and let out a soft breath.

Slightly raised his head and glanced at the entire Louis Puig Stadium, the audience boiled vigorously. For track and field competitions, sprinting is the most exciting competition at any time.

Although the 60-meter influence is not as great as the 100-meter, it has not even been included in the outdoor competition, but a top 200-meter athlete, his 100-meter performance may not be particularly good. But for a top 60-meter athlete, his 100-meter performance is certainly not bad.

The combination of speed and power is still very attractive.

This is Yechin's first game in 2008. After finishing his winter training trip at IMG Academy in January, he returned to China and spent the Spring Festival with his family. After that, his time was basically spent on training.

Time can be said to be very rushed. It has been a particularly rushed year since Ye Qin practiced sports in the past few years.

Fortunately, his family can understand, and as his current fame is getting bigger and bigger, many times it is not particularly easy to show up in public.

Two gold medals in the World Championships, as well as a series of influences such as breaking the 10-second mark, etc., completely fermented. 2007 can be said to be a year of his dreams.

This year is the Olympics, and the 2008 Yanjing Olympics is an extraordinary year for Ye Qin.

One is the home game, participating in the Olympic Games on the soil of one's own country, which is a completely different new experience.

The other is that he has proven himself in the World Championships, and now he needs to stand on the Olympics arena to win one or two gold medals.

He has this strength, and also pinned the hope of many people.

To quote Yang Yao privately, after practicing sports for so many years, not just to show his face in the Olympics. And this year is the Olympic Games in our own country, so we need to perform well.

"I don't know what's the situation with Youssef Bot, Jason Gaby, Asafaville?"

Even if you are at the starting line of the men's 60-meter preliminaries, Ye Chin is not thinking about the race in front of him, but seems to have skipped these five or six months and directly thought of the race in your bird's nest.

There, those talents will be his real opponents!

"Onyourmarks!"

The voice from the sidelines to remind the players to take their place sounded.

The noise of the indoor stadium calmed down a bit, Ye Qin calmed his mind and returned his attention to the runway in front of him.

The men's 60-meter indoor World Championships is a three-shot tiebreaker, and they are all played in one day.

Today is the preliminaries at noon, the semi-finals at 17:30 in the afternoon, and the final at 20:45 in the evening.

With his feet on the running aids, he first raised his head and glanced at the finish line not far away, then leaned over and lowered his head, quietly waiting for the gunshots of the game to sound.

The shorter the sprint distance, the higher the starting requirements for athletes. The 100 meters already require athletes to pay special attention to the start, and this point needs to be emphasized even more at the 60 meters.

Ye Qin adjusted his breathing slightly. Although the 60-meter race gave him a different mood, he was not particularly excited or nervous.

This is the preliminaries. He is the best sprinter in the world. As long as he gives full play to his strength, he won't have any problems in qualifying.

Snapped!

The game gunshots sounded.

Ye Qin rushed out from the starting line almost instantaneously, and his movements at this moment were surprisingly fast.

Sun Chaosheng, who was sitting in the stands, stood up from his position almost immediately after Ye Qin ran with him.

"So fast!"

Ye Qin's previous start has not been particularly good, and it is a weakness in this regard, but just in a moment, Sun Chaosheng, the big coach, keenly captured a different place.

On the field, the athletes on the left and right sides of the same track as Ye Qin all discovered the unusualness of Ye Qin.

Ye Qin's start was so fast that they all caught them off guard. After the gunshots rang out, almost the whole person rushed out like a dead cheetah.

Ten meters, twenty meters, thirty meters...

Ye Qin ran almost the entire time with other players in the same group~www.wuxiaspot.com~ There are many men's 60 meters in his group, but not many are strong.

Thirty meters later, Ye Qin straightened up and entered the state of running on the way. At this moment, almost no one by his side caught up with him. In the next 40 meters, 50 meters... Ye Qin took this advantage even more. .

Sixty meters!

Cross the line!

The score of 6 seconds 50 on the timing board clearly appeared in front of everyone.

Compared with Yeqin's best time of 6.59 in 60 meters at the beginning of last year, he ran to 6.50 in the 60-meter preliminaries of the Indoor World Championships.

For a time, huge cheers in the Louis Puig Stadium instantly sounded.

They came to watch the world's trapeze game, and the trapeze from China did not disappoint them. It was only the preliminary round and ran out a result that shocked everyone.
