Chapter 139 The King of Track and Field 45 Seconds (Part 1)

Zhang Guan's speed at this time is like the final sprint of a 200-meter runner.

"Is he running 400 meters? Why does this sprint feel similar to running 200 meters! Why did he have so much energy to sprint at the end? How did he do it?" Director Ma stared incredulously. Big eyes.

In the 400-meter sprint competition, when the final straight is reached, the physical strength of the athletes has been consumed a lot, and some athletes even rely on willpower to persist in running the entire distance. Even for the world's top athletes, the last 100 meters must take the most time. Top athletes need to spend 11 to 12 seconds for the last 100 meters. Of course, this is still under the condition that the physical strength can support to the end. If the physical strength is not enough when running to 350 meters, the top athletes will also run more than 12 seconds in the last 100 meters. seconds score.

But Zhang Guan is obviously not like this. He still has plenty of physical strength, so he can have a faster speed. In the last section of the straight track, he can save one to two seconds, or even more, than other athletes. This is more than enough to make up for the time he lost due to his late sprint time.

That is to say, Zhang Guan's running method does not change the rhythm at all in the first two corners and a straight road, and runs like "incomplete sprint activation" to save energy, and then sprints on the final straight track. , Relying on the higher speed to recover all the lost time in one fell swoop.

This kind of running method cannot be copied by others, because other athletes do not have the plug-in of system skills, and it is impossible for them to maintain such ample physical strength when entering the final straight.

Director Ma silently watched Zhang Guan cross the finish line, and it took several seconds for him to react. At the same time, he also realized that Zhang Guan had created a new way of running.

The reason why it is called a new running method is that the speed of the final sprint is too fast. In the original retro running method with a constant rhythm, it is impossible for athletes to run so fast in the final sprint.

"How could there be such a strange way of running in the world! He didn't run fast in front, which can be said to be a loss of time, but the last sprint made up for the time lost in the front, and he rushed so fast in the back. It seems like running 100 meters, where did he get so much energy? So what is the effect of running like this?" Director Ma turned his attention to the electronic timer.

"45 seconds!" Director Ma exclaimed.

The current domestic 400-meter sprint record is 45.25 seconds, and Zhang Guan improved this record by 0.25 seconds.

"It seems that this running method is successful! If Zhang Guan can increase his pace and swing his arms a little bit more, the technique of going straight and turning will definitely be faster! Then the result will be even better. How much is the improvement? 0.5 seconds? Or 1 second?"

Director Ma began to think in his heart. If it is increased by 0.5 seconds, it will break the Asian record. If it is improved by 1 second, and it runs within 44 seconds, Director Ma dare not think about it anymore, because the current world Only five people in the world have run under 44 seconds, and all five of them have retired.

The world record for the 400-meter sprint belongs to the legendary American flying man Michael Johnson at 43.18 seconds, and this result may be difficult to surpass. In the current high-level international competitions, as long as you don't encounter the abnormality of Jeremy Variner, running for about 44.5 seconds is enough to hit the championship.

"100 meters, 200 meters, 400 meters! The span of these events seems a bit too big! But if it can be realized, plus the 110-meter hurdles, next year's Doha Asian Games, we will dominate the men's sprint event!" Ma The director closed his eyes,

...

Japan.

"Everyone, the East Asian Games is about to start! Although the East Asian Games is not a very important game, it can also be regarded as a training for next year's Asian Games." Japanese team coach Kobayashi Kekazu looked at the people present, and went on Said: "We have many capable track and field athletes in Japan, but due to the limitation of the number of participants, it is impossible for us to send all the athletes to participate in the competition, so this time we called everyone to discuss the issue of the participants of the East Asian Games. "

"Then let's start with the men's 100-meter race. Do you have any opinions?" Kobayashi asked.

The coach who spoke first was Satoru Inoue. He was also a famous player in the 100-meter sprint.

Inoue Satoru said: "In terms of the 100-meter sprint, the Chinese team will definitely send Zhang Guan to the race. Zhang Guan's strength is really too strong. Even if we send the strongest player, it is impossible to win this event." Gold medal, so I think we can send some young athletes to participate in this event. Being able to compete with the world record holder is also a rare opportunity for young athletes to learn experience. In the two events of 200 meters and 400 meters On the other hand, we can send strong players to the race to deal with weaker opponents. There is a Chinese idiom for horse racing, which means this.”

"The Chinese idiom that Coach Inoue said is Tianji horse racing!" Takano Susumu immediately added: "Since we can't win the 100-meter sprint, we might as well take this opportunity to train the young athletes of our Japanese team. And we can also focus on In the two events of 200-meter sprint and 400-meter sprint, I believe that with the strength of our Japanese athletes, we will definitely be able to win gold medals in 200-meter sprint and 400-meter sprint!"

Everyone agreed, and then it was decided that two young Japanese players would participate in the 100-meter race in the East Asian Games.

Kobayashi Jinghe then asked: "So for the 200-meter event, do you have any recommendations for candidates?"

"Shenshi Gaoping is the best person to participate in the 200-meter race. Gao Ping-jun is only 21 years old this year, but he has already run a very good result. His 20.59 seconds last year was our best result in the 200-meter dash in Japan last year. Pai He competes with East Asian athletes, and he will definitely win the gold medal." Someone said immediately.

"For another spot, I think you can send Omae Yusuke. Omae Yusuke is only 23 years old this year. Although his experience is not as good as Matsuda Ryo's, Matsuda Ryo's competitive state has declined rapidly since he entered the graduate school last year. Let Omae Yusuke's participation in the East Asian Games is just a chance to practice." Another person said.

The Matsuda Ryo mentioned by this population is also a very capable player. He has run into the Olympic A standard and once represented the Japanese team in the Athens Olympic Games.

After some discussion, Keikazu Kobayashi finally decided on Shinji Takahira and Yusuke Omae to participate in the 200-meter race.

"Then, do you have any recommendations for the 400-meter sprint?" Yusuke Ohmae looked directly at Susumu Takano.

When it comes to the 400-meter sprint, Takano Susumu does have the most say. In 1991, he ran 400 meters in 44.78 seconds, and he is also the national record holder of the 400-meter event in Japan.

I saw Susumu Takano said: "Whether it is China, South Korea or North Korea, the 400-meter event is not strong, but our Japanese 400-meter sprint is the first-class in Asia, so we will definitely win the 400-meter event! I suggest sending Kanemaru Yusan made three appearances and won the championship with thunderous momentum!"

Kanemaru Yuzo is currently the first person in Japan's 400-meter dash, and in the next ten years, he will also rule the Japanese 400-meter dash.

"In addition, we can also send Mitsuhiro Sato to form a double insurance with Yuzo Kanemaru, then the gold medal in the 400-meter dash must belong to us!" Shin Takano said excitedly.

Sato Mitsuhiro's personal best is actually faster than Kanemaru Yuzo. Before Kanemaru Yuzo, Sato Mitsuhiro was the number one 400-meter runner in Japan.

Japan's 400-meter sprint level is indeed the best in Asia. It may not be as good as the athletes in West Asia at the level of individual athletes, but it can be regarded as the strongest in Asia overall. Basically, in Asian competitions, although Japan cannot win a gold medal in the 400-meter event, it is easy to win a medal. When examining the overall level of the 4x400-meter event, Japan is the first favorite to win the championship.

...

The idea of ​​the East Asian Games was first proposed by the Japanese. The first East Asian Games was held in China in 1993. It was originally planned to be held every two years, but it was held in Pyongyang, North Korea in 1995. It was canceled due to some factors. , so it was changed to be held every four years.

In the beginning, the competitions in the East Asian Games were still full of gunpowder. For example, the Koreans wanted to beat the Japanese, and the North Koreans also wanted to beat the Japanese. The Koreans and the North Koreans were also competing with each other, so the level of competition was quite high. But then it gradually became unbearable.

In the early 1990s, the sports level of East Asian athletes was generally relatively average, and they were not eligible to participate in many competitions, so they held a sports meeting by themselves.

Later, with the development of sports, the level of East Asian athletes became higher and higher, and gradually they were able to participate in some international competitions, especially the development of sports commercialization, which led to more and more domestic competitions in various sports, and East Asian athletes also It is impossible to attract those high-level athletes to participate, and without high-level athletes to participate, there will be no audience to watch. East Asian athletes have gradually become a arena for training newcomers from various countries. So in the future, this event will simply be changed to the East Asian Youth Games.

This is the fourth East Asian Games held in Macau. East Asian countries still pay more attention to this East Asian Games, but judging from the registration situation, it has begun to decline. For example, in the men's 10,000-meter long-distance race, there is only one The Japanese contestant and a Korean contestant competed, and the organizing committee had to find a long-distance runner in Macau temporarily, making up three of them, and then the Macau athlete who came to make up the number was lucky to get a bronze medal. For another example, in the men's pole vault event, only three athletes participated in the competition. The gold medalist only succeeded in the first jump and failed in the next jump three times. As a result, there is only one gold medal winner in this event and no silver or bronze medal winners.

Holding a game in Macau can be regarded as a home game for the national team. The enthusiasm of the local people in Macau is also very high, hoping to witness the demeanor of outstanding domestic athletes. Therefore, the national team still tries to send some well-known athletes in various events. In track and field events, Zhang Guan and Liu Feiren must participate. Zhang Guan will also usher in his 200m and 400m debuts.
