Run Out of My Life

"...Liu Yangyu must pay attention to his starting. Yesterday, he grabbed a shot. In the field, he still needs to be very cautious."

"The game begins! The column in front of Liu Yangyu is still very stable, and the movements are very coordinated... Heh, 13 seconds 18, very easy, Liu Yangyu won the first place in this group, oh, the first in the group Second, the first in the group is Maurice Vigno of Jamaica, who also successfully advanced to the final."

At 2 am Beijing time, countless viewers who stayed up late at this time in China were watching with relish the men's 110-meter hurdles semi-final broadcast by the CCTV satellite channel. Liu Yangyu finished second in the group with 13.18 seconds. Advance to the final held at 21:30 on August 27.

In the early hours of the night, there are still many exclamations of carnival sounds all over the country, and I don't care whether it will disturb the sleep of others. Another short track event has Chinese athletes reaching the final.

At this time, the TV screen, with the end of the men's 110-meter hurdles, suddenly appeared Liu Yangyu interviewing the athletes in and out of the stadium.

Although the reporter could not be seen, everyone could tell by the voice that it was a young woman.

"Can you finally breathe a sigh of relief?" The voice of a female reporter on the TV came out.

"It's not a sigh of relief, it's just that I don't have any burdens and no regrets. Because I have made a breakthrough in history, yes, I will make persistent efforts tomorrow. Tomorrow, one will be one." Liu Yangyu stood in front of the camera, whimpering He was gasping for breath, looking quite excited.

"Is the start a little late today?"

"It doesn't matter." Liu Yangyu shook his head and smiled, "It doesn't matter, as long as you successfully enter the finals, that's my goal. I don't care tomorrow, I'll play with them. It's like Just like fighting, we cannot take it lightly. I hope everyone can lend me a little luck and strength.”

At this time, the audience sitting on the TV waiting for the 200m final, looked at Liu Yangyu in front of the camera, and couldn't help laughing.

You're a lovely young athlete, but with luck and strength... of course we agree. However, today I have to lend it to Su Zu, who is going to the final, and I will lend it to you tomorrow.

Since yesterday, many spectators who were waiting to watch Su Zu's 200-meter hurdles semi-finals watched the 110-meter hurdles rematch in advance, and many people began to understand the men's 110-meter hurdles project, and for Liu Yangyu was deeply impressed.

Like the 100-meter event, a men's short-span event dominated by black people, at this time there is another player who has the opportunity to enter the final and have a chance to win a medal, which is really inspiring.

With many people who were only ready to wait for the 200m final at 4:00 am, they watched the men's 110m hurdles semifinal two hours earlier in front of the TV.

The result did not disappoint everyone, and Liu Yangyu successfully advanced.

“…After the men’s 110-meter hurdles, the next thing we bring to you is the men’s 800-meter semi-final, which is still explained by Mr. Han and I. The final Athens time is 3:00 Beijing time. 25 points is the last event at the Olympic Stadium today - the men's 200m final, Su Zu will participate in the men's 200m final, I hope you don't miss it."

As Yang Jian's voice sounded, the TV broadcast moved from Liu Yangyu's post-match interview to the men's 800m semi-final at the Olympic Stadium.

Although there are no Chinese players participating in this competition, there are basically no other programs to watch at this time, and countless audiences in front of the TV are still staying up all night, waiting for the last game an hour later the men's 200m final.

…

At this time, in a lounge in the athletes rest area of ​​the Olympic Stadium, Su Zu was lying on a massage bed. Jiang Daheng and another team doctor of the track and field team were giving Su Zu a massage.

"Master Jiang, lightly." Su Zu hissed lightly, his closed eyes suddenly opened, and said to Jiang Daheng behind him.

"Hey, your muscles are so stiff, I don't need to exert any force, but you can't move, just be patient." Jiang Daheng patted Su Zu's back lightly, his finger joints rhythmically He massaged Su Zu's muscles and replied with a smile.

"Master Jiang, tap lightly, we will have a match later." Su Zu clenched his teeth and cracked his mouth. He had massaged before the competition, but at that time it was mainly muscle pulling. It was the first time I had such a warm-up massage in Linsai for an hour or two.

"Daheng, pay more attention to the muscles of the legs and Achilles tendon. Don't use too much force, but move as much as possible." Li Zhizhong next to the massage bed looked at Su Zu, who was trembling from time to time, and couldn't bear it Live said.

"Yeah, Lao Jiang, this is a warm-up before the game, you just need to be lighter and keep your body warm." Yuan Guohua also said.

"Okay, don't worry." Jiang Daheng nodded, "Guang Bao will be on the field, Su Zu is alive and well."

Beside the massage chair, Li Zhizhong and Yuan Guohua watched for a while, and then stepped aside. Such professional people do professional things, and they can't get involved in the side.

"Su Zu looks tired now." Li Zhizhong stood in front of the window of the lounge, glanced at Su Zu lying on the massage table, and whispered to Yuan Guohua.

"Well, the arena is too dense."

Yuan Guohua nodded. Although Su Zu did well in the semifinals, several coaches could clearly see that Su Zu was a little tired.

After returning to the Olympic Village last night, Su Zu was almost dragged by the masseuse to relax his muscles. He fell asleep within two minutes of lying down, and slept for about ten years. Hours later, I woke up around noon.

Unlike Yang Guangzong and Chen Jian, Su Zu only participated in a single event. He started the men's 100-meter preliminaries on the 21st, except for the 100-meter award ceremony on the 23rd, which was a day off , basically every day in the intense competition.

The nature of Olympic competition pressure Needless to say, athletes need to play their best in almost every game, even if Su Zu can reserve some games, but the intensive schedule is not enough Physical fitness is still a huge test.

"It's still inexperienced, I should have asked Lao Jiang to come over a few times before."

Yuan Guohua sighed lightly. At this stage, the top athletes in Europe and the United States usually have a special massage therapist to relax their muscles before the competition, maintain the body heat through massage, and finally warm up. Do a few more sets of starts and sprints at the same time to minimize the athlete's physical exertion.

Especially in the Olympic men's 100m event, there is a two-hour interval between the semi-finals and the finals. Several famous American athletes have specially arranged for this gap to maintain body heat and reduce Physical expenditure from warm-up.

On the Chinese team, everyone still doesn't know enough about this. It wasn't until the 200-meter event reached the finals that Su Zu was a little tired, and no one mentioned this.

Su Zu's warm-up exercise today was strictly limited by the two coaches to reduce physical energy consumption as much as possible, mainly through masseuses to warm up and keep warm.

Stayed in the lounge until nearly 21:30, before the warm-up massage before the game stopped.

Under the arrangement of the Olympic staff, Su Zu entered the check-in area for the final check-in procedure and track warm-up.

At 22:25 in the evening, the men's 200m final of the Athens Olympic Games was officially held.
