Born to Run - Chapter 552
Paris France.
In a hotel room, Chen Zhongzhou watched the rain outside the window leaning down, his brows frowned tightly.
Turning his head and glanced at Ye Qin, who was packing up his luggage in the hotel room, Chen Zhongzhou spoke softly and comforted him, “Ye Qin, let’s just forget about this game. The weather today is really not so good. “
“Huh?” In the hotel room, he packed up the spikes and sprint suits he needed to participate in the competition. Hearing Chen Zhongzhou’s words, Ye Qin suddenly said with some curiosity, “What’s wrong, Brother Chen? It’s not about Yu Yu. Will it stop when the game comes at night?”
Today is July 17th.
On July 11 and 12, Yechin watched the Sixth World Junior Track and Field Championships in Bressanone, Italy, which was a good time to adjust.
The performance of the Chinese delegation in this year’s World Junior Championships was fairly good, ranking fifth with 3 golds, 3 silvers and 1 bronze. Among the various events, the silver medal won by the newcomer Xie Zheng in the men’s 200 meters is a worthy medal.
Ye Qin also talked about the situation of the young athlete from Jiangnan Province to Yuan Guohua, the head coach of the national relay team, over the phone.
After bidding farewell to the Chinese delegation at the World Junior Championships on the 13th, Ye Chin left Italy and went to Paris, France.
The first two days in Paris, France were fine, but after the 15th, the weather suddenly became a bit bad, and it started to rain heavily since yesterday.
After Ye Qin came to Paris, France, in addition to the outdoor training in the previous two days, the two days were the indoor training halls contacted by the main committee to carry out some simple training indoors.
“I said so.” Chen Zhongzhou’s face was a little helpless, “but who knows if it can really be stopped, depending on the current rain, if the game is time, I am afraid that it will be indispensable. The Berlin World Championships are not long before now. , You are not worth the loss in the raining game.”
“Brother Chen, I’m not that expensive.”
Ye Qin listened to Chen Zhongzhou’s reasons and waved his hand with a smile, “Everyone is here. I’m not more reconciled at this time. Besides, I will not be alone at that time. There should be no players who are going to challenge the Paris League this time. Few people.”
“But this is still some unnecessary risks.”
Chen Zhongzhou shook his head. He knew who Yeqin was talking about. The challenger to the 2009 IAAF Golden League’s six-stop victory was not only Yeqin. In addition to him, there were also famous Ethiopian long-distance runners. Kenenissa-Becker, the 2004 and 2008 men’s 10,000-meter Olympic champion, the 2003, 2005 and 2007 world championships men’s 10,000-meter champion, as well as the men’s 5,000-meter champion in many events, is this time in track and field. The arena is considered one of the greatest long-distance runners of all time.
In addition, there are also Jamaican women’s 100-meter trapeze Karen Stewart, American Championships women’s 400 meters first person Richards-Ross, and Russian high jump queen Isinbayeva and so on.
In terms of the overall lineup, the level of players participating in the Paris Golden League is higher than the previous Golden League.
“Although the Golden League Million Dollar Award is attractive, with your current wealth, I think you shouldn’t just ignore your body and go to the game in the rain.” Chen Zhongzhou persuaded again next to him.
“I am not challenging the Golden League solely for the bonus.”
Ye Qin listened to Chen Zhongzhou mentioning this, and explained with a smile that he wanted to challenge the Golden League this year in order to try to win this honor in the last year before the IAAF banned him.
After all, there are many things, once the reorganization of the event is missed, there will be no chance again.
As for the Diamond League, it is a game that has not yet started. It is a bit too early to talk about him. Moreover, the Diamond League has a large number of games and many countries with turnover. It is even more difficult if you want a complete victory.
However, Ye Qin still knew that Chen Zhongzhou was doing his own good. After thinking about it, he smiled and replied: “Well, Brother Chen, we will take a look at the venue when the time comes. If the rain is heavy, I won’t It’s on the court. If it rains lightly or if it stops, I’ll go on the court.”
“That’s fine too.”
Chen Zhongzhou nodded when he saw Ye Qin say this, “In this weather, muscles tend to get tight, so the warm-up before the game should be longer. If there is something wrong, we should stop as soon as possible. We don’t need to fight like this. a match.”
“Row.”
Ye Qin nodded and agreed.
…
At night, inside the Stade de France in Paris.
Although it was raining, more than 46,000 spectators came out in the rain to watch this year’s Paris Golden League.
In the 2005 Paris Golden League, the Stade de France set a record of 70,253 spectators to watch the game. Coupled with this year’s rainy days, there are still so many spectators to watch the game. It can be seen that the entire Paris audience is concerned about the track and field events. Love.
At 21:20 in the evening, standing next to the small window next to the warm-up track at the French Stadium, Ye Chin sighed with relief as he watched the heavy rain that had stopped outside the window.
The track and field competitions he participated in were not too many in the rain. The most profound impact was the Helsinki World Championships in 2005. The heavy rain at that time affected the state of many athletes.
In the men’s 200m race, Ye Chin seized the opportunity and ran wild in the rain. Before the race, he won the men’s 200m final and defeated Jax Trin and John. A group of top players such as Capel and Jason Gaby began his real rise in the international track.
Now think about it, four years have passed in a blink of an eye, and he has also become a decisive super-class sprinter on this planet and a world record holder from a young boy who was just showing off.
Everything seems like yesterday, but it has actually happened.
“Hi, Yeqin, ready to play!”
Just as Ye Qin was looking out the window and his thoughts were flying, a male voice with a few accents came from beside him.
Ye Qin turned his head to look, and saw a handsome black young man in a red sprint suit standing not far away, waving at him with his white teeth exposed.
“Okay. Thank you, Daniel!”
Ye Qin nodded at the black man, smiled and thanked.
“You’re welcome.” Daniel Bailey waved his hand and looked at Yechin. “This game is rainy, and Yousse Bot said that he would come to the competition before, but after seeing your registration, our coach Glenn Mills made Youssé Bot give up.”
“Yuse Bot is considering coming over to participate in the Golden League in Paris?”
Yeqin is a little curious about what Daniel Bailey said. Daniel Bailey and Youssef Bot are training partners. In the past few years, they should have been under the coach of legendary Jamaican coach Glenn Mills. Daniel Bailey himself and Youssé Bot are also very good friends.
“Of course. That guy wants to compete with you in the men’s 100 meters.” Daniel Bailey replied with a smile, “but the coach suggested that the top match between you still has to wait until the Berlin World Championships. At this time… “
Daniel Bailey paused slightly and made a gesture of collision with two fists, “If you may meet in advance, it will still affect your state of each other.”
“I am also looking forward to meeting with Youssé Bot at the World Championships.” Yeqin smiled and nodded. He knew that Daniel Bailey was right. Now before the World Championships in Berlin, he and Youssé- Neither Bot will run into each other.
This is a good thing for athletes of the same high level to be able to adjust their state to the best during this time.
While speaking this quietly, the two of them crossed the indoor warm-up track and began the inspection process.
21:45 in the evening.
When the dampness of the French Stadium, the list of nine players for the last men’s 100-meter race was played on the big screen, the whole stadium instantly boiled.
The noise and enthusiasm of more than 40,000 people seemed to evaporate the rain of the entire venue at once, making every player who entered the arena become enthusiastic.
The first one, Simon Williamson, England;
The second one, Juhan Blake, Jamaica;
The third way, Kurandi Martina, Netherlands Andris;
Fourth Road, Golden Collins, St. Kitts and Nevis;
The Fifth Way, Ye Qin, China;
The sixth way, Ivory Williams, the United States;
The seventh way, Martial-Mbanchok, France;
Eighth Road, Daniel Bailey, Antigua and Barbuda;
Ninth Road, Richard Thompson, Trinidad and Tobago;
The lineup of nine players is inferior to the race in Rome, Italy, but the current men’s 100m record holder is in the arena, which is enough to excite the audience.
Ever since Yeqin ran into the 9.70 mark in the last race in Rome, countless track and field enthusiasts around the world have been concerned about whether Yeqin can break the world record he set at the Yanjing Olympics last year. .
The biggest highlight of this year’s Berlin World Championships is the competition between Yechin and Youssef-Bot in the men’s 100m and 200m. Everyone wants to know who the two top sprinters are better. Is it possible to collect both the men’s 100-meter and 200-meter records?
For Yeqin, the two-time men’s 200-meter champion at the World Championships, his resume currently lacks at least one men’s 200-meter world record. If he can achieve this achievement, he will be the first on the planet to be able to cross. Athlete who broke the world record in three events.
As the time of the game drew near, when the audience had finished broadcasting the information of the nine players, everyone in the boiling French stadium became quiet consciously.
In the voice of the referee at the scene, the nine contestants noticed that they stepped onto the approach and began to wait for the gunfire to sound.
Ye Qin basically knows the eight players in this game. Although they may not be familiar with each other, they have more or less competed.
Including this time the host player Martial Mbanchok, this African-American French player’s results are not bad. He won the French men’s 100 meters championship last year. His personal best time is 10 seconds 06. At the same time, it is also The fourth core member of the French relay team.
Among the other players, there is only one American player, Ivory Williams. Yeqin is a bit unfamiliar, but the national sprint talents are not comparable to other countries. Not to mention the level of professional sprinters. For some athletes in the national level competition, if they switch to sprinting, they will be able to perform well after some training. It will not be a big problem to run into the 10-second mark.
Of course, if you really want to reach the top and become a super player, that’s another topic.
Although there was no challenge from Yousse Bot, Jason Gaby and Asafaville in this game, Yechin did not relax, but took it very seriously.
Not surprisingly, this should be his last game in Europe before the World Championships.
After this game, although there will be London Super Grand Prix, Monaco Super Grand Prix and Stockholm Super Grand Prix on July 24th, 28th and 31st, Yechin is not prepared to participate.
One thing is that in these games, there are several games of Youssé Bot and Jason Gaby. Before the World Championships, everyone is not ready to have another head-on showdown.
The other is after the Golden League, it will take another week. Then, after participating in the Stockholm Super Grand Prix on July 31, there is still half a month before the Berlin World Championships. When that time comes back to China to stay for a while, and then to Europe, it is too tossing.
It would be better to return to China directly after the Golden League in Paris, and then follow the delegation to Berlin to compete in the next month.
The time is more appropriate, and in this way, Yeqin can also have a period of rest and summarize the gains and losses of the recent competition. At the same time, he can also cooperate with the training of the 4×100m relay team in China.
After a gunshot, the game officially began.
Yeqin quickly rushed out of the runway after the sound of the starting gun.
Although it was rainy, Ye Chin had already performed a meticulous warm-up on the indoor warm-up track before the game. The muscles and joints of his body were fully opened and the running was very smooth.
Twenty meters later, Yeqin had already ran to the front of the nine players, and began to gradually widen the gap with other players around him.
At 30 meters, Yeqin entered the middle of the run, and his speed increased further. At this time, the cheers of the audience had once again sounded throughout the French Stadium.
Forty meters, fifty meters, sixty meters…
Ye Qin took the lead. In this game, there were few superb sprinters who could coach with him, and almost no one could keep up with Ye Qin.
Starting from the 70 meters, the entire stadium was almost like Yeqin performing alone, leading far and wide, leaving a big gap with the other players around him.
The audience in the Stade de France was also screaming when they saw Yechin’s performance ~www.mtlnovel.com~.
The men’s 100-meter race is the flash of light at the moment, but the kind of speed that reflects the ultimate human speed can most affect everyone’s emotions.
9 seconds 77!
In the end, after Ye Qin crossed the finish line, this group of Ye Qin’s results appeared on the time card on the spot.
The wind speed is upwind, -0.2 m/s!
After Ye Qin crossed the finish line, the applause sounded at the same time.
In this game, Yeqin’s performance was perfect. Although his performance was not as good as that of Rome, everyone can see that on the one hand, Yeqin did not face the challenge of an absolute strong opponent, and he obviously had room to run.
Another thing is that the weather in this game is a bit bad, not to mention the headwind, but the venue is washed by rain, and the air humidity affects the players’ performance.
The second and third places behind Yechin were Daniel Bailey and Yuhan Blake, both of whom ran into the 10-second mark, with results of 9.91 and 9.93 respectively.
Both of them set their best results in this game, among which Daniel Bailey set the national record of Antigua and Barbuda where he is based with this result.
After crossing the finish line, Ye Qin suddenly smiled when he saw his results.
He was also quite satisfied with the results of this race. In the men’s 100-meter race, he didn’t have much effort to run, but he still ran within 9 seconds and 80 seconds.
This allowed him to have a perfect answer before ending his trip to Europe for more than half a month.
“Next time I go back to Europe, it will be the World Championships!”
Running slowly on the track, greeted by the cheers of the audience, Ye Qin was happy in his heart, and at the same time, he thought of the next game.
At that time, he would face the strongest opponent in the arena, but he believed that he would still win.
