Born to Run

Chapter 97 - Decent boy

   When the game on this day was all over on July 10th, the Chinese team returned to their station. Except for the athletes who lost a few items in the game that day, almost everyone had a smile on their faces.

   Ye Lidong and Zhou Bin, the top leaders of the two representative teams, even slapped the men’s 5-kg shot put athlete Liu Feng on the shoulders, happily from ear to ear.

  Gold Medal!

   After Liu Feng successfully qualified for the shot put qualifying round in the morning, he won the championship with 21m45 in the final held at 7:20pm and broke the original record of 21m23.

   This is also the first gold medal and the first medal that the Chinese national team has won since the start of the competition.

   The atmosphere at that time can be said to be extremely high. Almost most of the Canadian spectators in the stadium gathered around.

   Canadian player Kyle Hulff, who participated in the shot put competition, is the most popular candidate to win the championship, and is also the only Canadian player who is hopeful of winning the gold medal in this World Junior Championships. In the previous pre-match training and qualifying rounds, Kyle Helff’s results were obviously better than Liu Feng’s results. As a result, Liu Feng directly locked the victory after Liu Feng threw a score of 21.45 for the third time.

   The other is Ye Qin.

Ye Qin advanced to the semi-finals in the men’s 400 meters event. Although there are not many outstanding results, the leaders and coaches of the representative team are all discerning people. He clearly knows that in the men’s sprint event, the Chinese players want to advance to second place. The difficulty of the gun semi-finals is already very huge, and it is a surprise to be able to have such a performance.

   Of course, Ye Lidong and Zhou Bin are not without expectations for his 400m semi-finals and even the 200m later, but no one will say it at this time.

   Evening.

  In the dormitory of the apartment building where the Chinese team is based.

   “Yechin, are you not nervous about tomorrow’s game at all?”

  Wu Jiang lay lazily on the bed next door, cheering other players on the field during the day. After the excitement passed, he began to sigh again at this time.

   “A little bit.”

   Ye Qin had just finished taking a shower and was sitting on his bed wiping his hair. Hearing what Wu Jiang said, he answered faintly.

   The pressure of the game is naturally a little bit, but in his heart, he really hasn’t felt any particularly nervous emotions, so he just needs to run!

“It’s just a little bit, yes, you have two events, 400 meters can’t do, you can still run 200 meters. And you can make it to the semi-finals. I can’t, I want to win the championship. I’m almost nervous. . Liu Feng is younger than me, and he has won the championship.”

   Wu Jiang sat up from the bed, looked at Ye Qin, and then lay down suddenly, weighing more than two hundred kilograms, making the bed board creaky.

   Although he is much bigger than many adults, he is only a 16 or 17-year-old in his mentality. Especially Liu Feng is eight or nine months younger than Wu Jiang. As an athlete under the hands of a coach, after Liu Feng won the championship, the pressure will inevitably be transferred to him.

   “Don’t compare with other people, just have a good game by yourself.” Ye Qin looked at Wu Jiang’s tossing appearance and uttered comforting words.

   The competitive mentality of young people or athletes is really normal.

   The two stayed in the same dormitory for a few nights, and the relationship was obviously much closer than before. Ye Qin also knew that Wu Jiang looked at his burly and tall figure, but he was actually quite fragile in his heart.

   In fact, it cannot be said to be fragile, that is, I have never experienced such a big scene. After seeing the outstanding performance of my partner, I am happy for the other party, but can’t help but worry about my performance in the future.

   “It’s easy to say, but too difficult to do.” Wu Jiang turned over his bed twice and sighed long.

   Ye Qin shook his head, not knowing what to say, went to the bathroom and dried his hair, ready to rest and sleep.

   Tomorrow is the men’s 400m semi-final. He still wants to enter the final and wants to win!

   Others think that he can run to the semi-finals is already open to God, but since it is a competition, then why is it not me who won in the end?

  ……

   At the same time, in the apartment building where the Jamaica team is based.

   A tall black teenager also tossed on the bed, unable to fall asleep, thinking about the game that is about to start tomorrow.

   “I really don’t want to run 400 meters!”

   The black boy sighed long while lying on the bed, thinking about tomorrow’s 400-meter final and the finals the day after tomorrow. He just felt that his legs would cramp in an instant.

   “Yose, what are you talking about?”

   A black teenager lying on the bed on the other side seemed to hear the movement, got up and glanced at the other person, and asked aloud.

   “Michael, I said I don’t want to run the 400m semi-finals tomorrow.”

   The tall black teenager made no secret of his feelings, “400 meters are so boring, I hate 400 meters!”

“Come on, Yosé, you have successfully advanced.” Michael Garner watched his roommate complaining, and couldn’t help rolling his eyes. “Look at me, I don’t have a chance to participate yet, **** me. I played too bad today! I have bad luck too!”

   Michael Garner sat up and thumped the mattress hard. He was in the first group of the men’s 400m preliminaries today. His score was 49.85. His performance was not very satisfactory. But if this result is in several other preliminaries, he may still have a chance to advance to the semi-finals with third or fourth place.

   But unfortunately, he was in the first group of the preliminaries. The players in front were relatively strong overall. I was ranked fifth in the first group of the preliminaries, and unfortunately eliminated.

   “Then give you my place!”

   The tall black boy named Yosé grinned, showing white teeth, and said indifferently.

“If I can do it, I will definitely want it.” Michael Garner said angrily. “It’s really unfair to be naive. I train so hard, but my results are not ideal. You guys can make it to the semi-finals casually. , If you’re serious, the champion might be yours.”

“Hey, Michael, who are you not serious?” The tall black teenager was obviously a little unwilling. “I came here to win the championship~www.wuxiax.com~ but it’s not 400 meters, but 200 meters. It’s my favorite!”

   As he said, the tall black boy named Yosé sat up from the bed, his eyes rolled round and round, as if thinking about something.

   “What are you thinking, don’t try to prank me anymore!” When Michael Garner looked at the other’s expression, he knew that this troublesome spirit seemed to be thinking about something nonsense. The two have known each other before and live together these days.

“You said, can I pretend to be injured suddenly during the warm-up process before the semifinals tomorrow?” The tall black teenager stood up, gestured, and suddenly covered the back of his leg with pain on his face. Said, “Ah… Coach, I’m injured! No, I can’t run 400 meters anymore!”

   said, limped two steps, and then fell to the bed.

On the other side, Michael Garner was a little bit dumbfounded by the opponent’s tricks. The imbalance in his heart seemed to dissipate at this time. He pointed out: “Not realistic enough, you have to cover your legs and fall down like a shot. .”

Saying that, I stood up and imitated the opponent’s movements, clutching the back of his legs, and tilted his head, “Ah, coach, I… I am injured, I am going to die… You will lose a world champion… “

   “Hahaha…”

   The laughter in the room was cheerful, and suddenly there was a banging sound outside the door.

   “Yose, Michael, you two bastards, hurry up and give me sleep!”

   “Shh!”

   In the room, two black teenagers shrank their necks, and lay back on the bed, tiptoing.

  PS: I will also make some adjustments to the names of international athletes as I do in China, as everyone knows!
