Run Out of My Life

The time of winter training goes by like this.

2003 ended and 2004 came to an end.

January 28, the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, Su Zu appeared on the track and field of the national team training base on time.

Like him, teammates are coming back one after another at this time. After the Spring Festival, basically the winter training is almost over.

“How was the year?”

Chen Jian looked a little rounder than before the Spring Festival, rubbed his hands, and asked Su Zu with a smile.

On the track and field early in the morning, seven or eight athletes from the sprint team including Su Zu, Chen Jian, Shen Yunbao, Yang Guangzong and He Jun had already appeared on the track.

Because it was early and the coaches hadn't arrived yet, everyone did some simple preparatory activities and chatted with each other.

"It's very troublesome." Su Zu shook his head and smiled bitterly. Before he became famous, he hoped to break records and become a well-known athlete, but after he really gained a certain reputation, he had to face the problems. Still quite a lot.

From the time of returning home before the Spring Festival to returning to the team yesterday, basically the time is not my own. In addition to parents and relatives, some government workers from the township and county town came to offer condolences. There are also companies in the county and city who have heard the news somewhere to pull him to advertise, offer sponsorship, etc.

The former deputy director of the Culture and Sports Bureau, Jiang Xianwu, who he had met once, came home and delivered some small gifts for the New Year in person as soon as he learned that he had arrived home. There was even Yangxin Middle School where he had been studying, and the principal came to take a group photo and so on.

"It is like this." Chen Jian obviously has a deep understanding. He has won the men's 100-meter championship in the National Championships for two consecutive years, and the third place in the Asian Games. He is also a well-known figure in his hometown. , the disturbance he faced was no less than that of Su Zu.

"Brother Chen, you look fatter?" Su Zu paid attention to Chen Jian's body shape, "Aren't you afraid of being scolded?"

Chen Jian gave a bitter face, "This is really impossible. I have repeated injuries and illnesses. This Spring Festival is already under control, but I don't move much, and I still grow meat."

"Your injury relapsed?"

Su Zu was taken aback, this is not a trivial matter, Chen Jian's Achilles tendon has been torn and strained, for sprinters, this injury is very fatal, especially at this important stage in 2004.

"How long does the team doctor say it will take to recover?" Su Zu is most concerned about recovery. The impact of this injury can be big or small, and it is really a headache.

"It is estimated that it will be two or three months. I will do some adaptive training now, not on the intensity, and try to maintain the state."

"Then you won't participate in the World Athletics Indoor Championships next month?" Su Zu knew that it might be difficult for Chen Jian to participate in the competition, but he still asked casually.

"It is estimated that I won't be able to catch up." Chen Jian shook his head, "Neither the National Indoor Championships nor the World Indoor Athletics Championships."

Last year, Chen Jian and Su Zu managed to get out of the qualifications for the World Indoor Athletics Championships, but now Chen Jian is unable to participate due to injury, which is indeed a pity.

The peak state of an athlete is one day less in the past. If you can't participate in more competitions at this best time and try your best to win honors, you will soon reach the stage of career decline, and it will be difficult to have Opportunity now.

"Brother Chen, you have to recover quickly, we have to go to Athens together this year." Su Zu sighed and comforted.

"Athens will definitely go, the big deal is that I will get a closed needle, so I have to come out now, and I can't completely lose my state." It is a great encouragement and honor for athletes to participate in a high-level arena, and it is not just for today after practicing for more than ten years.

And Chen Jian himself knows his injury status. Maybe after this Athens Olympic Games, he may retire. As for the 2008 Olympic Games to be held in front of the house later, the probability of going to participate is extremely low.

"By the way, last time the team said that they wanted to receive advertisements for you, do you know?" Chen Jian asked slowly, moving his body.

"No, but a CCTV reporter came to shoot a documentary for a day, and a camera followed your **** from morning to night." Su Zu thought for a while and replied, he also listened It is said that this matter is mentioned, but there is indeed no specific regulations to be implemented.

"Haha, documentary, let me tell you, I have made it before." Chen Jian suddenly laughed when he heard this, and greeted Yang Guangzong on the side, "Guangzong, do you remember there was a A reporter following your **** to make a documentary?"

"Remember, it doesn't seem to be on the air." Yang Guangzong, who was pulling the rubber band on the spot and doing high leg raise training, replied after hearing it.

"No, you've all done it, I thought it was just me." Su Zu didn't expect that all the athletes present had shot this.

Shen Yunbao came over from the other side, smiled and patted Su Zu's back, "It's the CCTV record, it doesn't take much effort anyway, as long as the athletes who have achievements will be followed and photographed To make a bottom line, it is generally not broadcast. However, yours may not be broadcast. I heard that "Sports World" has a special album introduction for athletes. It is estimated that you can run well in the future. Maybe someone will broadcast it to you. ."

Su Zu understood Shen Yunbao's explanation. No wonder it was always strange to watch TV in the past. Why can I see that when many athletes were not too well-known, reporters followed and shot a lot of pictures.

It turned out that this relatively outstanding athlete had a special recording camera when he was in the team. He would take some pictures, and then leave it for the athlete to become famous in the future, or to make some special documentaries.

While a few people were talking and laughing, Yu Liwei, Li Zhizhong, Mai Shaoqiang, Yuan Guohua, Liu Renjia, etc. had finished the New Year's meeting and all appeared on the track and field.

"Come on, gather."

Mai Shaoqiang clapped his hands on the side and called the athletes on the track and field to come and gather.

Yu Liwei stood in the middle, looked at everyone after the formation of the team, and bowed his hands with a smile, "Happy New Year everyone."

"Happy New Year!"

"Happy New Year!"

"Guide Yu, where is our red envelope."

In the sound of congratulations, a discordant voice suddenly came.

Yu Liwei glanced at him with a smile, "Yang Guangzong, you want a red envelope, okay, come to my office later, and I'll pack a big one for you."

Yang Guangzong waved his hand and defended: "Coach, this is not what I said, it's obviously Su Zu, he said that he was young and someone at home gave red envelopes."

"Yo, you guys are joining forces to make fun of me." Yu Liwei laughed, and the other coaches behind him also chuckled, all young athletes, joking, coaches There is no need to keep a straight face all day long.

"Well, whoever of you can run within 10 seconds, I'll give you a red envelope today." Yu Liwei said generously.

"Notes?" Yang Guangzong asked.

"Affirmative note."

"Brothers, the opportunity to earn red envelopes is here." Yang Guangzong smiled and shouted to the other teammates around him.

Note that the seven or eight sprinters in the current team run within 10 seconds. It is not impossible. In general, the score of handwriting time is 0.2 seconds longer than that of electric timekeeping. But this is the result of the competition. Before the appearance of the telegraph, the error of the handwritten record was still very difficult, often exceeding 0.2 seconds, and the training results, sometimes the super wind speed start and the gun rushing and so on. So it is not surprising that there are some results under 10 seconds.

For example, Chen Jian used to run 9 seconds 9 and 9 seconds 7 in his stopwatch handwriting, so it is definitely impossible to strictly follow the results of the telegraph. However, occasionally such training results appear, which can play a considerable role in improving the self-confidence of athletes.

"As you all know, this year is the Olympic Games. Among you, three of you, Su Zu, Chen Jian, Yang Guangzong, have won the A mark in the 100 meters and the A mark in the 200 meters. Our sprint men's team was last year. It has been a brilliant year, from individual competitions to relay races, and has achieved outstanding results.

From the indoor competition that started immediately in February to July before the Olympic Games, I hope you all can make persistent efforts, run more good results, and qualify for the competition. Of course, it would be better to break a few more records. "

"There is one more thing to pay attention to injuries. During Chen Jianxian's winter training, the injury recurred, and he missed the indoor games in February and March. You should also pay attention to this. Be careful, if there is a problem, promptly respond to the coaching team doctor.

The goal of 2004 is the Olympic Games, I would like to mention a small prospect here, I hope you can stand on the semi-final track of the men's 100 meters and 200 meters, and hear the second The sound of a gunshot. In the men's relay event where we just broke the Asian record, I would prefer to be in the final. Everyone, work hard and disband! "
