Chapter 125 The King of Track and Field Breaking the 100-meter Record Twice a Week
Chapter 125 The King of Track and Field Breaking the 100-meter Record Twice a Week
Although athletics does not have the distinction of weight classes like boxing and judo, athletes can still be divided into different levels according to their respective competitive levels. In the 100-meter sprint event, it is normal for the world's top athletes to take the lead in the first 50 meters in a contest between world-class athletes and world-class athletes; Leading is also a very normal thing.
What is a world-class 100-meter sprint athlete? Those who can run under 10 seconds can be classified as world-class 100-meter sprinters. In general track and field competitions, you can enter the semi-finals or finals. If you are lucky, you can still have a chance to win a medal. This can be regarded as world-class.
So what are the top track and field athletes in the world? In the 100-meter event, Powell is clearly the world's top track and field athlete. In fact, as far as the 100-meter sprint is concerned, one who can easily run within 10 seconds can be regarded as a top athlete in the world, and has the ability to win medals in competitions other than the Olympics and World Championships. If Powell faces Shingo Motsu, as long as Powell is willing, he can definitely lead Shingo Motsu in the first 50 meters, because the two are athletes of different levels.
In a contest between two levels of athletes, if the high-level athlete gains an advantage in the first 50 meters, the advantage will only increase later, because the speed behind the higher-level athlete will be faster, and the gap will naturally It will get bigger and bigger.
Powell, Gatlin, Green, Crawford, Obikveru, Collins, etc., can all be regarded as this kind of top athletes in the world, and it is almost impossible for them to win a decisive battle in the first 50 meters advantage, because they can be said to be the same level of athletes. The decisive victory between them even reached the moment when they crossed the line before the finish line.
Today, in the duel between Zhang Guan and Powell, Zhang Guan gained this advantage in the 50 meters, and Zhang Guan's speed was still faster than Powell. This can only show one thing, that is, Zhang Guan The level of the crown is no longer at the same level as Powell and the others.
Therefore, this game is already a game of overwhelming strength.
Powell secretly sighed in his heart: "It turns out that Zhang Guan has been hiding his strength! His real strength has surpassed mine. I am no longer an athlete at the same level as him!"
60 meters, 70 meters, 80 meters, Zhang Guan's lead is getting bigger and bigger, Powell is still trying to catch up, but in fact he has given up the game in his heart.
Before the finish line, Zhang Guan slightly controlled the rhythm and crossed the line with a time of 9.73 seconds. There is no doubt that Zhang Guan once again broke the 100-meter world record he set a week ago.
"Zhang Guan! Leading, a huge lead, it is irreversible, okay, cross the line, champion! Zhang Guan won the championship, his result is... oh! World record, another world record! My God Wow! This is only one week! Zhang Guan broke the world record twice in one week!" The narrator roared loudly.
Powell looked dejected. This game made him lose confidence in competing with Zhang Guan. Not long ago, he was only 0.01 seconds away from the world record. In this week, Zhang Guan broke the world record twice. They all broke the world record in front of Powell, which dealt a huge blow to Powell's self-confidence. Powell knew that he could only look up to Zhang Guan in the future.
"Zhang Guan is only 19 years old, and he already has this level. It seems that in the next ten years, the 100-meter sprint will be dominated by him. Then should I change careers and run the 200-meter?" Powell immediately denied his opinion. With this kind of thinking, it is difficult to guarantee whether Zhang Guan will also transform to 200 meters in a few years, and he may be completely abused again by then.
Powell stared at the number 9.73 seconds on the timing card, and sighed helplessly. At this moment, he completely gave up the idea of defeating Zhang Guan, and suddenly felt a lot more relaxed. He walked up to Zhang Guan and said, "Congratulations, Zhang Guan!" Crown! You broke the world record again."
"Thank you, Asafa! But I think that after three or four years, you may create a faster speed than this." Zhang Guan said, he knew that Powell's personal best score was 9.72 set in 2008 Second.
Powell suddenly had an indescribable feeling in his heart, and then he said: "By then, you must have already run within 9.7 seconds!"
Afterwards, Powell said sincerely: "Zhang Guan, I just felt that you didn't give full play to your strength, and you still have reservations. Can you tell me how fast you can run?"
"I haven't tried it." Zhang Guan thought for a while, and then continued: "I think in the future, I should be able to run within 9.6 seconds!"
Powell gasped. He felt that a time of less than 9.6 seconds could not be created by humans.
But Zhang Guan knows that just 9.6 seconds is definitely not enough, because there will be another Bolt in the future, and his best time is 9.58 seconds.
...
In the early morning, crackling firecrackers sounded from the family courtyard.
"Whose family is having a wedding again?" The crowd with some good things stopped to watch, but when they saw this family courtyard, they immediately understood.
"It must be Zhang Guan who won the championship again!" said an aunt walking a dog while hugging a dog startled by the sound of firecrackers.
Every time Zhang Guan won the championship, Zhang Guan's family courtyard would set off firecrackers to celebrate. The property office was also checked by the fire department for storing flammable and explosive items such as firecrackers.
"There are a lot of firecrackers going off today! It must have been set off a few thousand times." The aunt said.
A hawker selling meat buns next to him interjected, "I remember that last week, so many firecrackers were set off. It seems that because Zhang Guan broke the world record, ten more firecrackers were set off. Could it be that Zhang Guan broke again? world record?"
"Impossible, it's only been a week!" The aunt shook her head.
After a while, the sound of firecrackers finally stopped, and an old man who was watching the fun also turned on the radio on his body.
"Interlude a piece of latest news. In the just-concluded IAAF Golden League Rome station, Zhang Guan once again broke the world record for the men's 100-meter sprint event with a time of 9.73 seconds! This is the distance from the last time he broke The world records are only a week apart..."
"Oh, it really broke the world record!" The peddler shouted in amazement.
...
In one week, broke the men's 100-meter world record twice, unprecedented!
Although Zhang Guan once broke the world record of the indoor 60-meter event twice in a week, the level of the 100-meter sprint and the indoor 60-meter race are completely different. It is like comparing F3 racing cars with F1 racing cars and winning ten F3 racing championships Not as good as an F1 racing champion.
In the past, everyone has been used to waiting for a few months, ten months or even years, waiting for a world record in the 100 meters, waiting for the world's number one flying person, and last year, Zhang Guan spent a month Just broke the world record twice, which has surprised many people.
And less than a year later, Zhang Guan broke the 100-meter world record twice in a week, which made the whole world completely crazy. Compared with those legendary track and field stars in the past, some people even shouted that Zhang Guan is the best track and field athlete of this century.
...
After the IAAF Golden League Rome race, Zhang Guan immediately went to Madrid to participate in the IAAF Super Grand Prix Madrid race.
According to the schedule of the Athletic Management Center, Madrid was not in the original competition plan, so Liu Feiren returned to China directly from Rome, while Zhang Guan went to Madrid to participate in the competition at his own expense.
The Super Grand Prix Madrid race was held on the fourth day after the Golden League Rome race. In the Golden League Rome race, Zhang Guan had just used the potion to fill up his status, so he didn't want to waste the effect of the potion. Moreover, Zhang Guan also needed to participate in the competition to gain skill points. Even though the schedule was tight, Zhang Guan went to Madrid and won another gold medal.
There will be no competition until ten days later, so Zhang Guan also flew back to China to rest.
However, as soon as he returned to China, Zhang Guan fell into a busy situation. The astonishing achievement of breaking the 100-meter world record twice a week caused a sensation in the world, let alone in China. Countless media rushed to Pujiang City, hoping to interview Zhang Guan, and advertising endorsement contracts flew in like snowflakes.
Accepting interviews, shooting advertisements, and participating in various activities have become the themes of Zhang Guan's daily life. He is very busy and fulfilling. Rapid growth.
A large number of continuous business activities will naturally affect Zhang Guan's training, and this situation lasted until Zhang Guan boarded the plane to the UK.
On July 22, the IAAF Super Grand Prix was held in London, and Zhang Guan won another gold medal.
But this time, Zhang Guan felt that the enthusiasm in the arena was not as good as before, especially when he was the first to cross the finish line, the cheers and applause were not as loud as he thought, as if the audience had gotten used to it. Zhang Guan won the championship.
Indeed, both the audience and the media have begun to get used to it. As long as Zhang Guan participates in the competition, he can win the championship. For the whole world, Zhang Guan won the 100-meter sprint championship. As it should be, when Zhang Guan did not win the championship, that would be considered news!
On July 26, at the Stockholm Station of the IAAF Super Grand Prix, Zhang Guan won another championship amidst the familiar expressions of the audience. Since the Lausanne race, Zhang Guan has won all four IAAF Super Grand Prix championships.
On July 29, the IAAF Golden League Oslo Station was held in Oslo, Norway. Liu Feiren did not come to the competition this time. After all, he did not win the championship in the first two races, so he had no chance to win the final gold award, so Liu Feiren chose to prepare for the upcoming World Athletics Championships in China.
Jamaican flyer Powell also did not come to the competition. Powell had to miss a series of recent games, including the next World Athletics Championships, because of a relapse of an old injury.
Zhang Guan experienced another intensive schedule of three games in seven days, especially the Oslo station of the Golden League as the third game, which was a big test for Zhang Guan. In the final game, Zhang Guan only ran for 9.95 seconds. Fortunately, Zhang Guan's two strongest opponents, Jamaican Dwight Thomas and British Jason Gardner, both ran 10 seconds away, and Zhang Guan won another championship.
In the IAAF Golden League, Zhang Guan has already won three games. According to the rules of the Golden League, he only needs to win two more games to get his hands on gold ingots worth 500,000 US dollars. If you can win all three games, you will have the opportunity to win gold ingots worth millions of dollars.
So far, like Zhang Guan, only the Russian long jump queen Lebedeva and the French 100-meter sprinter Aaron have won all three games.
After the IAAF Golden League Oslo Station, Zhang Guan immediately went to Helsinki, Finland, where the 10th World Athletics Championships will be held.
The World Athletics Championships were originally held every four years, but now they have been changed to every two years. This event is also an event that the national team attaches great importance to.
Track and field has traditionally been a weakness of the national team, but in race walking and women's throwing events, the national track and field team is still very strong and can often win medals in world-class competitions. However, the IAAF Grand Prix, Super Grand Prix and Golden League basically do not set up race walking events, but focus on track events. Therefore, except for Liu Feiren and Zhang Guan, other domestic athletes rarely have the opportunity to compete abroad.
In the World Athletics Championships, all Olympic track and field events are set up, and the requirements for participation are much lower than those of the Grand Prix or the Golden League, so many domestic athletes have the opportunity to participate in this event.
A total of more than 1,200 athletes participated in this track and field championship, and the national team sent a team of 36 people. For male athletes, there will be three athletes each in the 110m hurdles, 20km race walk and 50km race walk, and one athlete each in the 100m sprint, 200m sprint, triple jump, pole vault, discus, javelin and decathlon ; In terms of female athletes, the national team participates in much more events, except for sprint, middle-distance running, long jump and heptathlon, all other women's events are participated.
Zhang Guan came to Finland directly from Oslo, Norway, much earlier than the national team. When the national team arrived, Zhang Guan had already been training in Helsinki, Finland for several days.
...
"How is the condition?" Director Ma handed Zhang Guan an unopened bottle of water, and sat down beside him.
"It's not bad. The training is relatively regular these days, and the state is better than the previous few days. It will definitely be no problem to win the championship!" Zhang Guan took a sip of water after speaking.
"Don't talk too much!" Director Ma smiled, and then said: "This track and field championship, it is not so easy for you to win the championship."
"Powell didn't come to participate because of injury, who else is left? Obikveru is my strongest opponent, the other Kim Collins, Dwight Thomas, Jason Gardner, Azi Z-Ariza, the others are at the level of Xuanzhi Asahara! Those who are 10 seconds away are not a threat to me." Zhang Guan said.
"Look at the list of contestants first." Director Ma handed a piece of paper to Zhang Guan.
Looking at the entry list, Zhang Guan frowned suddenly, because he saw a very familiar name:
"Gatlin, why is he here!"
