Born to Run - Chapter 551

“You… are you… Ye Qin?”

Standing in front of Yeqin was a brown-skinned black girl, not so good-looking, wearing a British national team uniform, looking at Yeqin with wide eyes.

Ye Qin suppressed the baseball cap on his head, a little helpless that he was recognized, so he spread his hands and nodded and replied: “Yes, it’s me. May I ask you?”

“It’s really you Yechin!” The black girl was very excited and excited on the spot, and then quickly introduced herself in British English: “Judy, my name is Judy Williams, my God, I don’t dare Believe, I actually saw you in the Bressanone audience. My fan, I have seen almost all your games. Well, that’s the game I can find. It’s a pity yesterday that the Rome Golden League game was played. I was not able to see that I also had a race here yesterday. I heard that you ran in 9.66 seconds and won against Jason Gaby and Asafaville. You are really too strong! You are the only one in the world. The athlete who ran into 9.70 twice…

I have watched you many times at the Osaka World Championships and Olympic Games video, you are really too strong! It feels like there will be no one on this planet who can run faster than you. It’s a pity that you rarely go to the UK to participate in competitions, otherwise I will definitely go to the scene to cheer you on…”

The black girl seemed to be very emotional, Ye Qin just casually asked what the other person was called, but the girl crackled a lot, almost completely unable to stop.

Ye Qin listened patiently. When the black girl’s words paused, he pointed to the team uniform on the opponent’s body, then pointed to the track and field outside and asked, “Judy, is Judy Williams right? , Nice to meet you. Are you a member of the British team to participate in the World Junior Championships this time?”

“Yes it is!”

The black girl nodded heavily, “I am a sprinter just like you. I am a women’s 100m and 200m runner.”

“Then our projects are the same.” Ye Qin smiled. He has met many people in Europe who like him, and of course some people don’t like him. But relatively speaking, he cheered and applauded more.

“Judy has won the championship in yesterday’s women’s 100m event and will participate in the women’s 200m event tomorrow.”

At this moment, I don’t know when a girl who also wears the British team uniform came out.

“Wow, congratulations!”

Ye Qin was a little surprised. He didn’t expect that the black girl standing in front of her would still be the champion of the Women’s 100m World Championship. She smiled and continued, “Sorry, I was competing in Rome yesterday, and I couldn’t see your race on the spot. If it’s the women’s 200m tomorrow, I should be here.”

“Awesome! Thank you, Ye Qin!” The girl cheered up and shouted Ye Qin’s name in an even accent. “I will win another women’s 200m championship. Please do Let me go.”

“of course.”

Ye Qin smiled and nodded. Tomorrow is the last day of the World Junior Championships. He has already decided to watch the 200m finals of the youngster named Xie Zheng in the Chinese national team. By then, the women’s 200m should be ahead of the men’s 200m. He will not miss a few games.

In fact, Ye Qin is also very happy to meet fans who can like him. Especially when the opponent is an athlete, this is different from the young girls in the Chinese delegation. Ye Qin has a direct influence on them, and will be set as goals by coaches and parents for them to learn and surpass.

In Europe, a female sprinter has such a passionate performance, which completely represents his influence in the international track field.

“Thank you, thank you, Ye Qin!” Seeing that Ye Qin was about to leave the stadium, the girl thanked Ye Qin again when she parted, “I will learn from you and become the best female sprinter on the planet. Yes, the most The good one!”

“Come on!” Ye Qin smiled and faintly encouraged.

After bidding farewell to the black girl, Ye Qin followed Chen Zhongzhou back to the hotel.

at night.

Ye Qin casually talked to Chen Zhongzhou about encountering the black girl during the day. Chen Zhongzhou quickly checked through the official website of the IAAF and found the young British track team named Judy Williams. Information about female sprinters.

“Yechin, although this Judy Williams is young, he definitely has an amazing talent for women’s sprinting.”

“is it?”

Ye Qin, who was sitting on the sofa in the hotel, was a little interested when he heard Chen Zhongzhou say, “Her grades are very good.”

“It’s more than good.” Chen Zhongzhou smiled and shook his head. “In yesterday’s women’s 100m event, she won the championship with 11.39 seconds and broke the age record. Following this momentum If it can develop smoothly, I am afraid that some female sprinters in the United States and Jamaica may not be able to win her in the future.”

“11.39 seconds? This result is very good, right?”

Ye Qin was slightly surprised when he heard this result. He didn’t know much about women’s 100-meter sprints, but they all knew about sprints more or less.

A score of 11.50 seconds is considered excellent. In the Asian Games National Games, this result is possible to compete for the top three or even the championship.

“More than that.” Chen Zhongzhou then pointed to the computer screen and continued, “Judy Williams, since 2005, she has maintained an unbeaten record of more than 100 games in four years. Just say it. In the women’s 100m event, she has won a total victory since 2007.”

“No wonder you are so confident today, saying you want to be the best female sprinter.”

Hearing this, Yeqin laughed. From the beginning of 2005 to the present, he has almost maintained a complete victory in the 100m and 200m events for more than four years. Even if the level of the competition is relatively low, it is not easy. .

And with the improvement of the players’ performance, the level of the competition must be improved step by step. With such a performance, he can be regarded as a seed player in the British sprint event.

“It seems that this year’s World Junior Championships has improved the level of the previous players!”

“That’s for sure.” Chen Zhongzhou nodded, “With the development of science, the overall level of the players in training and nutrition is moving forward.

In other words, if you were to throw you a hundred years ago, your grades would probably not be much better than Jesse Owens. If it were thrown twenty years ago, well, it should be able to win Karl Lewis…”

Hearing this, Ye Qin couldn’t help but laugh.

In fact, what Chen Zhongzhou said is correct in all aspects. For the sprint project, the pursuit is to be faster!

This is a result that has been gradually achieved by various training methods through the continuous development of human potential from generation to generation. Every person who can reach the pinnacle in his contemporaries has done his best under the conditions at the time.

It cannot be simply said that modern people must surpass the previous ones. These are all developed and established step by step.

In analogy, it can be regarded as IQ. The IQ of people in this era is not necessarily higher than that of the ancients, but in terms of insight and knowledge, it will develop with the times. The mastery and accumulation of knowledge, and the generation gap of information, are completely different.

Like the development of track and field in China, especially the sprint event, on the one hand, because of the improvement of national strength, the overall quality of the new generation of young people has improved. The other is the popularization of scientific training methods.

From elementary and middle schools, to sports schools to professional teams, better training methods and methods have been adopted. It is hard to say how many athletes will be able to rise at the level of the top athletes, but the number of athletes at the level like other first- and second-level athletes is sure to be Increased in a large amount.

It’s like many sports school students now hear that Ye Qin’s score was just 12 seconds in his first year of high school, and they feel that it is not difficult to exceed this score.

The starting point is different, the training conditions and the environment are different. Only after 10 seconds and 50 are entered, after gradually reaching the ceiling, it is extremely difficult to progress every tenth of a second and a hundredth of a second at that time.

The next day, July 12th.

The last day of the 6th World Junior Athletics Championships (U18).

Because it was the last afternoon game, nearly 5,000 spectators came to the audience of Bressanone Stadium, the largest number since the start of the World Championship.

Ye Qin sat in the spectator stand. It was 14:30 and the first women’s 800-meter final in the afternoon began.

In this event, no player from the Chinese delegation advanced to the final round. The overall level is not small in Yechin’s eyes and the level of the top competition. However, given the age of the current players, it is still somewhat difficult to determine whether there will be anyone. After three to five years, he has fully grown up to become a new generation of dominant athletes.

After the women’s 800 meters, the men’s pole vault event is followed. This event can be regarded as one of the biggest weaknesses of the domestic men’s track and field events, and there is a clear gap with European and American athletes.

At 14:45, the women’s 200m final officially began.

Judy Williams, the black girl who greeted Ye Chin in the audience stand yesterday afternoon, ranked fourth. After Chen Zhongzhou talked about the other party’s information last night, Ye Qin was also a little curious whether this girl could continue to win the championship in this year’s women’s 200m event.

After a gunshot, the finals officially began.

After the start, Judy Williams, who was in the fourth pass, quickly gained the advantage. From Yechin’s perspective, the opponent has a very good explosive power, pace and pace among women sprinters of this age. The rhythm is also very good.

However, after the corner and entering the straight phase, Judy Williams’ speed dropped significantly.

Although there is still a lead, another black female player in the fifth pass is quickly catching up with her. The opponent obviously has better speed retention in the second half.

In the last fifty meters, the two almost started a very stalemate competition.

Yechin has previously learned that the player competing with Judy Williams is Alison Peter from the U.S. Virgin Islands. In the women’s 100m final, the opponent was second only to Judy Williams. Si, got the second place.

In the women’s 200-meter final, the competition between the two was obviously more intense.

“From 2005 to the present four years, more than 100 games have been won almost completely. Will this little girl be ended here?”

Ye Qin is still quite curious about this answer. It is very difficult to maintain a winning streak in a sprint competition, and it will be affected by the ups and downs of the individual’s state and the competition of opponents. In the men’s sprint competition, the only thing he knows now is that Asafaville has won more than 40 games in a row, and he has not been able to do this himself.

In the end, the two hit the line almost at the same time!

After the on-site game results appeared, Judy Williams and Alison Peter both scored 23.08, but in the end, Judy Williamson won in thousands of seconds and saved her winning streak. Record.

After this game, Ye Qin did not pay any attention to this female player who can be regarded as his fan. Instead, he carefully talked about the situation of women’s sprinting in China in recent years with Chen Zhongzhou beside him.

China’s women’s track event is relatively strong in the middle and long distance races. At its peak, it is not a problem to break the wrist with powerful countries such as Ethiopia and Kenya.

But in the women’s sprint event, the strength is weaker. The best female sprinter that Yeqin has ever played before is Li Xuemei.

The performance of the opponent at the same age will not be weaker than Judy Williams, who has just played, or even more talented.

Li Xuemei has maintained the Asian women’s 100m 10.79 seconds and 200m 22.01 Asian records so far, and he can be called a generation of legendary women athletes.

However, it is a pity that many of Li Xuemei’s competition records are completed domestically, and he has not been able to achieve special results in the international arena. He was regretted to be eliminated in the first round in the two World Championships. The best performance was only to win the 100m gold medal and 200m silver medal in the Asian Games.

But in any case, from 1997 to 1998, the Chinese women’s sprinter ushered in a good momentum of development. In addition to Li Xuemei, other women’s sprinters such as Liu Xiaomei had excellent performances in the competition.

While Ye Qin and Chen Zhongzhou were chatting, discussing and watching the game, time passed bit by bit.

At 15:30 in the afternoon, the men’s 200-meter final of the World Junior Championships began.

This is the most important event for Ye Qin’s team to watch the competition in this next life. He wants to see what amazing performance the teenager named Xie Zheng can do in this game.

Although a final cannot fully represent the strength of an athlete, track and field events have always been heroes based on results.

In the absence of injuries, for the first time to participate in such a world-class competition, he can still have an extremely outstanding performance, which at least represents that the opponent’s competitive mentality is absolutely excellent in the category.

Just as Ye Qin once said to the opponent when Su Bingtian participated in the World Youth Championship last year.

In the face of foreign players of all skin colors, there is no need to fear them. When your grades and level are enough, they need to be afraid of you.

This is a competitive mentality, to some extent, it is something more important than personal talent.

There has never been a lack of players in the international track and field who have amazing results in small competitions, but languish in the big games.

Many players in China used to have good results and performance, but what they lack is self-confidence, the confidence to dare to compete with the world’s top players.

Yeqin learned a lot from foreign coach Randy Hunter, but often looking back, in fact, Randy Hunter gave him this kind of confidence.

No matter how strong the opponent is, no matter which country he is from, and what achievements he has had before, don’t be afraid of challenges and competition.

After a gunshot, Xie Zheng, who was in the seventh lane, quickly rushed out of the runway.

Ye Qin couldn’t help standing up at the moment the gunfire rang and watched the opponent’s performance in this game.

The start was very good. Although not very fast, the pace was steady and the rhythm was completely maintained.

Thirty meters later, he gradually began to enter the stage of running on the way. Ye Qin could see from the sidelines that Xie Zheng’s cornering skills were still lacking, and the speed did not add up quickly.

However, this does not matter.

In the juvenile level, the 200-meter race ~www.mtlnovel.com~ requires more speed and endurance. As long as the rhythm can be stabilized, after entering the straight, it is entirely possible to catch up.

Seventy meters, eighty meters, ninety meters…

Xie Zheng has always been in the position of three or four on the field. He is facing the top group of sprinters of the same age, and the difference between them is not big.

When entering the straight phase, the eight finalists inevitably experienced a decline in speed.

Xie Zheng’s ability to maintain speed is good, and he gradually caught up from the fourth position behind, and when he was approaching the final finish line, he even rushed to the second position.

“Second, the silver medal!”

Ye Qin and Chen Zhongzhou both applauded.

Xie Zheng’s performance was better than the two expected. In this level of competition, being able to win the silver medal was something that Yeqin could not do when he participated in the World Junior Championships.

Soon the results of this group of men’s 200m finals appeared on the big screen.

The championship was won by Killarney James of Grenada. The result was 21.05. This is basically the normal result of the men’s 200m championship in the World Junior Championships.

Except for the 2003 session, he encountered the defying Youssé Bot, who won the championship with a time of 20.40. Afterwards, the championship results of the World Junior Championships were basically around 21 seconds.

Xie Zheng ran 21.30 in this game, 0.03 seconds faster than the third Spanish player Alberto, and won the runner-up.

“What do you think? I think this result is still very promising.”

Looking at the results on the big screen, Chen Zhongzhou smiled and glanced at Ye Qin next to him, and said.

“Looking back, I should talk to Coach Yuan. You can join the team for training. If you make rapid progress in the past few years, you can run to about 20.70 before the London Olympics. Then the relay team will have his great.”
