Chapter 124 The King of Track and Field: Put on Shoes and Raise Your Level (Second Update)

The Rome station is the second stop of the Golden League. Since it is only a week away from the first stop in Paris, the contestants have not changed much compared to the first stop.

Powell stood in the preparation area with his eyes closed, but he was thinking about what the coach said to him not long ago.

"Have you forgotten your dream? You want to be number one in the world, not number two in the world! Now you haven't fulfilled your dream, you are only one step away from the success of your dream, don't you want to give up now Is it?"

"Think about it, since you were a child, you have been on this road. Over the years, you have been training hard, running from early morning to evening every day, and running non-stop. Why? Now Are you willing to give up like this?"

"Think about your mother, think about your family, think about your life before, because of you, they now have access to refrigerators and air conditioners, can eat meat at every meal, and can enjoy the best in Jamaica Live! You're not just fighting for yourself now, you're fighting for your family! Do you want them to go back to the way they were? Living in crowded rooms, enduring the heat, eating potatoes and yellow yams?"

"You have to remember, this is competitive sports! Competitive sports will always only remember the winner, who is the first! As for the second place, who cares? So, don't try to be second, you Be the first!"

"Since you were a teenager, you have shown extraordinary talent. You walked step by step, entered the national team, received formal training, and then went to the world arena. Every step of your progress is stepping on countless athletes. Every athlete who enters Jamaica's national team needs to defeat hundreds of thousands or even millions of peers. You have crossed the corpses of countless opponents to become today! Now, you need to be the same as before step over, instead of doing the corpse being stepped over!"

"Think about it, among the people you beat, not only your enemies, but also your partners, think about those partners you trained with when you were young! Who is still running among them? Where are they now What? If you are lucky, you may be able to find a part-time job in the city, and you may rely on Susukita in your hometown to make ends meet. If you are unlucky, you may be curled up in a corner of a slum, suffering from hunger and disease! And their children, Maybe you will repeat the life of your parents, don't you want your children to become like that in the future?"

"You have to understand, you are a warrior, you have to keep fighting! If there is a mountain in front of you, then you have to climb it! If there is a big river in front of you, you have to swim across it! You have to go through, you have to move forward, and you can only move forward, you have no way out!"

Powell took a deep breath. These words of the coach kept wandering in his mind, constantly inspiring Powell. At this moment, Powell rekindled his confidence, and he wanted to challenge Zhang Guan again!

"I want to defeat Zhang Guan!"

...

Zhang Guan finally found Sharapova in the stands, which immediately made him feel relieved. Then he looked at Powell not far away, and immediately felt the strong fighting spirit on the opponent.

"Powell seems to be very excited, and he seems to be in a good state! By the way, he did not participate in the IAAF Super Grand Prix in Lausanne, and he did not run around like us. His competitive state should be better than ours!" Zhang Guan Think silently.

Affected by the intensive schedule and running around for days, Liu Feiren did not maintain the good state he had in Lausanne. He ran 13.24 seconds in the just-concluded race and won the runner-up. And Zhang Guan was also affected, and his competitive state dropped rapidly, which made Zhang Guan have to use two bottles of state recovery potion again before the game.

But the good news is that Zhang Guan now has running shoes.

When the Lausanne station was held, Zhang Guan had already equipped the system with running shoes. He was also experimenting with the performance of the running shoes, so he did not try his best in the competition. After equipping the running shoes, it is easier for him to kick the ground obviously, that is to say, when he kicks the ground according to the original strength, he can gain more kinetic energy, which will also be directly reflected in the speed.

Another point is that in terms of motion control, Zhang Guan feels that his body's motion control is stronger after being equipped with running shoes, and this is what Zhang Guan cares about and is more happy about.

High-level sprinting is not just about rushing forward without thinking. When it comes to the world's top level of competition, the body's movement control is even more important than the competitive state during the competition. Although the 100-meter sprint only lasts ten seconds, excellent athletes can constantly adjust their rhythm during these ten seconds. During the race, the rhythm and state may not be very good at the beginning of the race. With the adjustment during the race, the best state and sense of rhythm have been found after running one-third or half of the race. This is the top Athlete movement control, and this is also the most difficult link for athletes to master.

For example, in the post-match interviews of many top athletes, the topic of adjusting the rhythm during the game is always mentioned. Most people may not understand it. They think that the athlete ran for a total of ten seconds. What rhythm should be adjusted? I can watch it on TV. What came out was that the athletes had been running all the time, and they didn't see any adjustments to the rhythm at all. But in fact, every step an athlete takes may be an adjustment. This adjustment not only requires the body's response, but also requires the brain to constantly analyze its own condition and the opponent's condition, and make adjustments to the body. All of these instructions were made in a very short period of time. If you think about an adjustment for a second or two, after your body reacts, the game may be almost over. Therefore, the top athletes in the world must not be very stupid in their brains. Therefore, sports events not only test the body, but also test the IQ of the athletes.

At this moment, Zhang Guan had a stronger level of motor control, so he decided to charge for the world record again.

...

After a week, Powell got another chance to challenge Zhang Guan.

Coach Suereber stood in front of Powell and said: "Going to Lausanne to participate in the competition must have consumed a lot of Zhang Guan's energy, and I heard that on the night they arrived in Rome, not only was their plane delayed, the hotel was also delayed. The guest room is also full, they should have experienced a rush. Look at Liu Feiren, today is nearly 0.2 seconds slower than a week ago, which shows that their state is definitely not as good as a week ago, this is an opportunity for us! So, Asafa, look at me."

Suereber met Powell's eyes, and then Suereber said solemnly: "Asafa, I believe in you, you will be able to defeat Zhang Guan, you are the strongest sprinter in the world!"

"Yes, I can!" Powell said excitedly.

"Okay, now get on the field, go run, go use all your strength, go beat him!" Suereber said as he pushed Powell onto the track.

...

"How do you feel?" Director Yu asked after taking the jacket that Zhang Guan had taken off.

"It's no problem to win a championship!" Zhang Guan said with a smile.

Director Yu thought that Zhang Guan was comforting himself, so he said, "Just run as hard as you can, don't worry about it."

"Don't worry, I'm here for the one million gold. If I lose, the gold will be gone." Zhang Guan walked onto the field while talking.

...

Italy is also a sports powerhouse, and the audience in Rome seems to be more enthusiastic than the audience in Paris. From the moment the athletes stepped onto the runway and began to prepare, the audience cheered and shouted without stopping. Perhaps many of the audience are from Serie A. fans, who have enjoyed cheering on athletes with their voices for a long time.

For the sprinters, they like this atmosphere very much. The shouts of the audience can make the athletes feel passion and excitement, can make the athletes excited, and let the athletes enter the state earlier.

For sprinting, what you need is passion and excitement, what you need is enthusiasm!

The 100-meter trapeze race, one of the most exciting events in track and field, finally started amidst the excitement.

Zhang Guan looked at Powell who was not far away. He knew that the best way to completely defeat a person was to defeat him mentally.

"A week ago, I probably needed to fill up the state to break the world record, but now that I have shoes, even if the state is not full, I should be able to break the world record!" Zhang Guan thought to himself.

When the long-lost gunfire sounded, the athletes started to start, and they wished to turn themselves into a shell and shoot it out.

The first thirty meters is a process of acceleration and a process of beginning. For the 100-meter race, it is difficult to widen the gap at this distance. It seems like a jar of fine wine that has been sealed for a long time has been lifted, and the fragrance inside is slowly released. The drinkers are looking forward to the taste of the fine wine , This is a process of waiting, the taste of this fine wine can only be known after tasting it carefully.

Thirty meters to fifty meters, a stalemate process, the strong will stand out, and the weak will decline.

After 50 meters, the contest between the strong began. Just like the last contest between Zhang Guan and Bao Wei, from 50 meters to 80 meters, Zhang Guan established his own advantage.

But things are a little different today. At 50 meters away, Zhang Guan already had some advantages. This advantage was not great, but it was enough to shock Powell.

Powell has extremely rich experience in competitions. He knows that there are two possibilities for this situation to occur. The first is the difference in the state of the athletes. For example, my game state is very poor and Zhang Guan's game state is very good, so just after half of the schedule, Zhang Guan can take the lead.

However, today Powell feels that his condition is not bad. Although it is not as good as the day when he ran 9.77 seconds, it is not much worse than the previous stop. To achieve this lead in the distance. So the possibility of state differences can be ruled out.

Then there is only the second possibility: Zhang Guan's strength is much stronger than his own.

This is a contest of different levels!
