Almighty Coach

Eight contestants have already stepped onto the track, while the coaches are gathered in the rest area in the open space next to it.

"Li, long time no see!" A voice sounded from behind, and Dai Li looked back, only to see an old man with white hair standing behind him.

This man's name is Duke, he is 68 years old this year, and he is a very senior physical coach living in Seattle.

"Coach Duke, hello." Dai Li immediately stepped forward to greet the old man.

The two exchanged a few words before Duke said, "I heard that Sean Ford is training with you now?"

Dai Li nodded: "Yes, he has been training with me for several months."

"This player is difficult to deal with, isn't it?" Coach Duke smiled slightly, lowered his voice, and continued, "I used to be his physical coach. His problem is not his strength, but his physical defects."

By "physical handicaps" Duke was apparently referring to Ford's long and short legs.

Dai Li nodded again: "I also discovered this, so I did some targeted training, and the effect is not bad."

Of course, Dai Li will not disclose his training methods. Physical training methods are not patented inventions, and others cannot use them without paying patent fees. High-level coaches will never disclose their training methods, so as not to be easily exposed by others. learn to go.

In fact, the so-called training method can be regarded as the coach's understanding of a certain sport. Each coach's understanding of the sport is different, or the depth of understanding is different, and the training methods adopted are different. And this kind of understanding can only be summed up after a lot of experience accumulation by the coach, as well as a lot of thinking and trying. It is the core thing of a coach. As a coach, I naturally don't want others to take away this kind of achievement for nothing.

However, Duke was very disdainful of Li Dai's statement "the effect is not bad". He felt that Li Dai was bragging in order to save face. So he asked: "Coach Li, how many places do you think Sean Ford can get this time? Is there any chance to qualify?"

"Of course I will win the championship!" Dai Li said confidently without hesitation.

"Champion?" Coach Duke suddenly laughed. In his opinion, the "best world championship champion" has already performed at a super level if he can enter the finals of the selection competition. The championship is simply a fantasy.

Dai Li felt a hint of sarcasm in Duke's smile, but he knew that the old man was not malicious, so Li Dai went on to explain: "Not long ago, Ford ran a 19-second time in the Miami Open. A score of 93."

"19.93 seconds! So fast!" Du Keton gasped. He knew that this result was very likely to qualify in the trials.

Coach Duke lives in Seattle, which is located in Washington State, which is the most northwestern state in the United States except for Alaska, and Florida, where Miami is located, is the most southeastern state in the United States. So Duke, who lives in the Northwest, was unaware of Ford's accomplishments in Miami.

At this moment, the referee signaled the athletes to stand on the starting blocks, and the race was about to begin.

...

Vincent is a student in a high school in Eugene, and he is also an athlete, especially good at track and field sprinting and long jumping. If it was in a middle school in another city, Vincent might have become a famous figure in the school, but in Eugene, the capital of track and field, there are countless high school students like Vincent who are good at track and field.

Since it was the weekend, Vincent and his little friends also came to the scene of the game. While watching the game, they also cheered for their favorite athletes.

"The competition is about to start, who do you think will win?" asked the friend next to him.

"Of course it's Meyer. I think his strength is even better." Vincent replied without hesitation.

The little friend shook his head: "I am optimistic about Foster, and I have a poster signed by him!"

"Foster is very powerful, but he must be inferior to Meyer. His cornering skills are too poor, and he will always fall behind a lot in corners. Compared with them, Meyer's skills are more comprehensive. .” Vincent immediately retorted.

"But Foster is faster on the straights, he is good at sprinting, I think this can make up for his lack of corners." The little partner also refuted.

The two started arguing with each other, and the athletes stood on the starting block one after another, making all the preparations. When the familiar sound of the starting gun sounded, each athlete rushed forward instinctively.

"Look, Meyer must have won!" Vincent snorted coldly and focused his attention on the field.

"Foster, come on!" The voice of the little friend suddenly sounded.

"The surrounding voices are too noisy, he can't hear them at all, you'd better work hard!" Vincent said with some disdain.

On the field, every athlete runs along the left sideline of the runway as much as possible, reducing the running distance as much as possible. At this time, it is a test of the player's cornering skills. Although athletes of their level will not commit "stepping Line" this kind of low-level mistakes, but there will always be people who don't control their pace, and then lose their time because of it.

At this time, the audience sitting in front of Vincent suddenly started waving an American flag, which blocked Vincent's sight.

"You're blocking me!" Vincent said loudly to the audience in front of him.

The audience looked at Vincent apologetically, and then put down the American flag in his hand.

Vincent once again set his sights on the field, at this time the athletes had entered the straight from the curve.

However, Vincent found that the athlete in the leading position was neither Meyer nor Foster, but an athlete he did not know. More importantly, the lead is still very large, and it can almost be said that the victory has been established.

"Who is that person?" Vincent said in amazement.

The man in the lead is naturally Sean Ford.

...

"Why is it so far ahead!" Sebastian looked extremely surprised.

Sebastian knows that Sean Ford has achieved several very good results recently, and he can also accept Ford's temporary lead, but what makes him unacceptable is that Ford's lead is too large. From Sebastian's professional point of view, there was no need to continue the game. Ford's advantage when exiting the corner had already sealed the victory.

"I took so much lead in one corner, how did I get out of it!"

Fortunately, Sebastian immediately discovered that Ford's speed on the straight track was slightly slower than other players.

"Is it simply good at cornering?" Sebastian felt a little more at ease.

"However, his advantage in the corner is too great. With such a short distance, the people behind should not be able to overtake him. Sean Ford is about to win the championship! Dai Li's new type of stimulant is not suitable for this old man. Athletes really work, even Sean Ford, a broken guy, is back to life!"

...

The corner was coming to an end, and Meyer felt that he performed very well in the corner without making any mistakes. He firmly believed that he would be in the leading position the moment he ran out of the corner.

Meyer's explosive power can only be regarded as the middle level among the top sprinters, so his 100-meter level is not strong, but his cornering skills are very good, and he has a certain ability to last, so he is in the 200-meter event Like a duck to water. At the World Championships two years ago, he represented the US team and won a bronze medal with a time of 19.89 seconds. At that time, it was the world's number one flying man Gitel who won the championship.

Meyer is still very confident in his qualification to qualify, but whether he can win the championship depends on whether he can beat Foster.

Foster's cornering skills are relatively average, but his straight sprint ability is very strong, and Foster also won the third place in the 100-meter event. In Meyer's view, Foster is the biggest on his way to winning the championship. threat.

Finally, Meier entered the straight, and he was indeed ahead of Foster.

But Meier was not ranked first, there was another person in front of Meier.

"It's Sean Ford! Why is he in front of me? I didn't make a mistake in the corner run just now! I should be the fastest, how could anyone be faster than me!"

...

Once Foster entered the straight, he immediately found that it wasn't just Meyer leading him, but Sean Ford as well.

More importantly, Meyer is only a little ahead of Foster, while Sean Ford's lead is incomparably huge. Foster even feels that with such a big gap, he can already admit defeat.

"Meyer is only a little ahead of me, and there is still time to chase, but Ford is so much ahead of me, there is no need to chase at all! This is nothing compared, the game is incomparable, before I catch up, he has already Crossed the finish line!"

At this time, Foster couldn't help but think of the coach's previous evaluation of Sean Ford, that "the most watery World Championship champion".

"What is the most watery world championship champion! The most watery can run so fast? The most watery can still lead me so much? If it is not watery, is it going to lead me by a second or two? The coach is just kidding me! "

...

Ford's speed on the straight was not the fastest, but due to the huge lead in the front corner, it was impossible for other players to catch up with him, so he won the 200-meter championship in the end.

Ford's score is 19.85 seconds, which is 0.08 seconds better than that in Miami. According to the situation in previous years, 19 seconds 85 can win a medal in the Olympic Games. As for whether you can win the gold medal, it depends on the performance of other contestants.

"It's the first time I've seen so many leads in one corner!" Duke murmured.

The other coaches around also looked at Ford with incredible expressions. You must know that there is no weak person in the finals. It is almost difficult to see that the victory can be established only by the 100-meter curve ahead.

Dai Li showed a gratified smile. In Li Dai's view, this was not only Ford's personal victory, but also Li Dai's victory.

If it was Dai Li in the past, if he encountered Ford's long and short legs, he would definitely come up with an athlete patch to make up for Ford's physical defects.

But this time, Dai Li chose another method. He used his accumulated experience, his understanding of the 200-meter event, and his unique thinking to make Ford change his running method and win the race.

Dai Li felt that the results this time were not obtained by relying on the heaven-defying treasures of the coaching system, but by his own ability.

Dai Li now has a great sense of accomplishment.

It's like playing a game, cheating on the opponent to win, of course you will get inner comfort, and you can also find the pleasure of crushing the opponent, but the feeling of cheating to win is completely different from the feeling of defeating the opponent through your own strength . Many people who cheat and play games will soon lose interest in the game after getting a short-term excitement, while those who win by their own strength can always persist because they can experience more fun and experience from the game. The sense of accomplishment after victory.

Since getting the system, Dai Li has become a "cheat player". In fact, when the upgrade speed of the system is getting slower and slower, and the interval between receiving rewards is getting longer and longer, Dai Li has already lost his sense of being a coach. kind of fun.

Now, through Sean Ford, Dai Li has found the fun of being a coach again.

...

Looking at Ford who was celebrating around the field, Dai Li sighed silently in his heart: "Being a coach is still a very interesting thing!"
