Born to Run - Chapter 569

The 2009 World Championships in Berlin was the largest competition so far. The number of participating countries reached 202, and the number of athletes reached 2,101, with a total of 47 events for men and women.

August 21 is the seventh day of the current World Championships, but including the eighth and ninth two days later, the cumulative ticket sales have reached 400,000 tickets.

In 1936, due to the special factors of the time, the most attractive matchup of the Berlin Olympic Games was the long jump duel between German player Karl Ludwig and American player Jesse Owens.

In this game, Karl Ludwig once led Jesse Owens, but he discovered the technical problem of Jesse Owens from the game and gave Jesse Owens a pertinent suggestion. In the end, Jesse Owens won the long jump gold medal under the advice of Karl Ludwig.

The sports competition and sports friendship between Karl Ludwig and Jesse Owens has become the most talked-about example of sports in decades.

The Olympic Stadium, the main venue of the Berlin World Championships, was where the two faced off. In order to commemorate the two athletes, the organizers of the event will give a reward of 100,000 U.S. dollars to any athlete who breaks the world record in this world championships.

At 22 o’clock in the evening, when Yechin stepped into the Berlin Olympic Stadium, he unconsciously remembered the long jump between Nie Fangping and Jesse Owens and Karl Ludwig when he was in high school. The final thing.

In that special era, political elements were mixed into sports.

The German head of state watched the long jump match on the spot, hoping to boost the morale of the country with sportsmanship, and an athlete on the field can use his sincerity and sportsmanship to be fair and help his competitors. This is an extremely rare scene. .

Ye Qin sometimes still feels particularly admirable for the competitive spirit of the two athletes at the time. As for the prize money given by the organizers to the athletes who broke the world record this time, he did not particularly care about it.

He has broken two world records in this world championships, becoming the only player so far. The bonus is not the most important goal of his competitive selection, but the charm of his own competitive sports, which attracts him.

Some sports players have difficulty surpassing goals after reaching certain achievements, and may become slack after winning various Grand Slam championships.

Track and field are different, especially in sprinting. Every progress and retreat of his can be calculated with precise time, tenths, hundredths, and thousandths.

Standing behind the track, Ye Qin gently adjusted his breathing and relaxed his tense mood for days. In this men’s 400-meter final, what he thought deep down was to let go and run.

No matter what kind of results you can run now, whether you can win or lose to your opponents, go all out to run!

…

In the entire stadium auditorium, the number of spectators tonight is no less than that of the previous men’s 100 meters and men’s 200 meters. Many spectators sat on their seats and gave a warm welcome when they saw Ye Qin appear on the field. And applause.

From this year’s Berlin Golden League to the men’s 100m and men’s 200m finals at this World Championships, Yechin’s performance has completely conquered the stadium and conquered the city.

Many viewers who have only watched Yechin’s game before on TV have completely become his fans after watching the madness of Yechin’s two finals on the spot.

They witnessed the emergence of a great legend in the history of track and field!

And now, this legend will once again challenge his next race in this stadium, the men’s 400m final. Countless people are looking forward to what he will shoot with the best athletes on the planet. Sparks.

Youssé Bot, wearing a peaked cap, sat in the audience with his parents, quietly waiting for the men’s 400m final.

For him, there is only one relay race left in this World Championships that needs him to continue running, and now, he can sit on the sidelines and watch the 400-meter final.

No longer a challenger, no longer an opponent, just watching as a friend, whether Ye Chin can complete the feat that the previous Osaka World Championships and Yenching Olympics failed to accomplish-alone in the World Championships or Olympic Games , Swept three championships in men’s sprint events.

“Brother, I’m sure you can do it! You are the one who defeated me, Youssé-Bot!”

An inexplicable thought arose in Yossé Bot’s heart, his mouth raised lightly, and he grinned and clapped lightly from the sidelines.

The competition in track and field is only confined to the arena. After two games, the duel between him and Yeqin has temporarily come to an end. The next challenge should be at the 2011 World Championships and the 2012 Olympic Games.

Now, he just gives encouragement and applause to this opponent who can win his own in the men’s meter event.

If you can defeat my opponent, you should be able to defeat anyone on this planet!

…

“…In this men’s 400-meter race, Yechin will face the triple crown champion Jimmy Warner of the 2004 Athens Olympics, 2005 and 2007 World Championships. Jimmy Warner’s personal status since the start of 2008 It’s not particularly good, but he has repeatedly ran within 44 seconds and is still the best 400m athlete on the planet.

The other is Sean Merritt, he and Jimmy Warner are both American players. In last year’s Olympic trials and the Olympics, Merritt won Jimmy Warner. He is considered Yechin’s strongest competitor in the men’s 400 meters. Before the game, Sean Merritt also expressed his desire to compete with Yechin for the men’s 400m championship. Both Sean Merritt and Jimmy Warner have maintained their unbeaten season results this year…

Okay, the information of the eight players has been typed out on the big screen…”

Accompanied by Mu Jiang’s commentary, many domestic audiences who woke up in the morning and yawned, waiting to watch the game, all woke up at this moment.

The time in Berlin is seven hours longer than that in China. At this time, it is five o’clock in the morning in China.

Audiences who have stayed up late to watch Yechin’s men’s 100 meters and men’s 200 meters will not miss the men’s 400 meters this time. Everyone is looking forward to Ye Qin’s outstanding performance in this men’s 400m race.

In a world championship, Yechin basically has games from the first day to the last day of the game. This also made many domestic commentators laughed and said, as if they were watching the World Cup, one game after another.

After Mu Jiang’s voice fell, the men’s 400-meter race list appeared on the scene and on the big screen in front of the TV:

The first one, David Chirico, Ireland;

The second one, Renee Co., Trinidad and Tobago;

The third way, Ye Qin, China;

Fourth Road, Sean Merritt, United States;

Fifth, Chris Brown, Bahamas;

The sixth way, Jimmy Warner, the United States;

Seventh Road, Tabari-Henry, U.S. Virgin Islands;

Eighth Road, Michael Bingham, England;

In this race, Yechin was on the third track. His performance in the 400-meter semifinals was not particularly outstanding before. Like the 200-meter event, he did not occupy a particularly strong position in the arrangement of passes.

However, compared to the seventh track of the 200-meter project, it is obvious that the third track this time is pretty good. At least his two competitors are in front and can grasp their positions more clearly.

Standing on the third lane, after participating in the men’s meter finals one after another, Ye Qin’s mentality was very balanced for the men’s 400 meter race.

From entering the venue, I briefly remembered the history of the stadium that Nie Fangming and him once talked about, and quickly focused on the game in front of him.

Compared to last year’s Olympics and the world championships the year before, in fact, most of the opponents he needs to face on the track and field are familiar people.

Especially the top few are all familiar faces.

This is also the norm in track and field athletics. A player who has reached the top level, in the peak years of his career, whether he wins an award or not, will basically be a frequent visitor to various competitions.

If Asafaville said, the real competition is not that the players put pressure on him, because the people are still those people, just change the name and venue, and if they want, they will feel different pressures.

After a brief stretch on the field, Ye Qin soon heard the voice of the “Onyourmarks!”

Taking a deep breath, then slowly exhaling, adjusting his competitive state to the best, Ye Qin stepped onto the already-tuned run-up.

“…The game will start soon! There is a nervous atmosphere in the entire Berlin Stadium. We will wait and see if Yechin can win the 400m World Championship again!”

With the end of Mu Jiang’s voice, both the spectators in the Olympic Stadium or the spectators watching the game in front of the TV could not help but sit up in distress.

The 70,000-strong stadium gradually quieted down at this time.

“SET!”

Snapped!

The gunshots of the game sounded instantly!

At the moment when the gunfire rang out, Ye Qin kicked his legs on the approach and ran out.

Although there is a relay behind, but for Yeqin, the most difficult race ahead is basically over, and this 400m final can be run without any scruples.

However, although he let go of the run, he did not go all out to increase his speed to the highest level after he started.

Instead, he controls his speed in a rhythmic manner. He is already an experienced athlete who knows what kind of game he faces and what kind of strategy he should adopt.

From the start, Yeqin followed Sean Merritt slowly, controlling his own speed based on the opponent’s speed.

However, after thirty meters, Yechin clearly discovered that Jimmy Warner on the sixth lane on the outside was very fast. It can be said that he sprinted forward quickly from the start.

At the 0-100m stage, the top 400m athletes will probably control their speed at about 11 seconds. This result is not fast for many 100m athletes, but in the 400m event, the speed is already extremely amazing.

Because the next second 100 meters and the third 100 meters do not need to start to accelerate, basically athletes can run within 11 seconds.

Of course, for Yechin, it was very easy to maintain a speed of about 11 seconds in the first 100 meters, but in this final, he clearly found that Jimmy Warner’s speed should have already entered 11 seconds after the start.

At the same time, Mu Jiang’s voice from the live commentator also sounded: “… Yeqin started off very steadily and is accelerating! Jimmy Warner ran very fast in front of him, just like he was at the Yanjing Olympics. This is because he changed coach. Afterwards, it seems that although he has returned to the old coach’s command, he has not changed the technique… Merritt has begun to accelerate to overtake!!”

In the first 100 meters, Jimmy Warner led almost all the other players and ran to the first position, but in the second 100 meters, Sean Merritt began to increase in speed and began to catch up with Jimmy Warner from behind. .

And Yechin, who was following Sean Merritt, was also very stable, did not suddenly surpass Sean Merritt, but kept a distance that was not thrown away by the opponent.

In terms of absolute speed, at a distance of 200 meters, if he runs at full capacity, he can beat Sean Merritt and Jimmy Warner by more than 1 second.

But in the 400-meter race, the second half is the key!

Straight into the corner!

M start!

This distance can be said to be a crucial distance for the 400-meter athletes, and it is also the best opportunity to achieve surpassing and overtaking.

At the peak of Jimmy Warner, the instant acceleration in the 250-meter stage has always been an important technical feature for him to dominate the 400-meter project. This stage was even praised as “Warner Time”.

But in the men’s 400m final, it seems that Jimmy Warner changed his running technique from last year and concentrated his speed to the first half. He accelerated at the moment of the meter and did not appear again.

Not only did it fail to increase the speed at 250 meters, but it was obviously slower than before!

But Sean Merritt seized this opportunity. Although his first 100 meters was slower than Jimmy Warner, his second 100 meters had already caught up and slightly ahead of Jimmy Warner.

By the third 100 meters, Sean Merritt had significantly better speed control.

Whether you are a top 400-meter athlete or not is actually at this stage. In the first 100 meters and the second 100 meters, many excellent sprinters can run within 11 seconds. In the second 100 meters, because there is no need to start to accelerate, it can rise to between the runways. However, after the first two high-speed runs of 100 meters and the third 100 meters, many runners can no longer maintain their speed.

And if you can run within 11 seconds of the third 100 meters, the speed retention ability can be called quite good. Of course, this premise is that the race is a men’s 400-meter race, not a 300-meter race.

When Yeqin entered the meter, his speed naturally declined compared to the second 100-meter speed, but his excellent speed retention ability was not thrown away by Sean Merritt, and he still maintained a relative distance from the opponent. A head-to-head situation.

As in most of the rice competitions, the audience basically feels that the players are running faster and faster, but in fact there are only one or two highest speed points, and there are still fluctuations in speed during the period.

Just follow other competitors as a reference, and the speed increase will give people a visual sense of sudden acceleration.

Turn into the straight!

In the final eighty-meter stage, Yeqin and Sean Merritt ran into the straight stage almost at the same time, followed by Jimmy Warner, who was probably slower than Yechin and Sean Merritt. A multi-person distance.

Eighty meters, seventy meters, sixty meters…

The finish line is getting closer!

After entering the straight, both Yeqin and Sean Merritt began to speed up the sprint.

The two are next to each other, this kind of competition is the fiercest!

At this time, the audience also boiled over, and once again saw a scene of someone rushing to the finish line alongside Ye Chin in a game.

Fifty meters, forty meters, thirty meters…

Just when everyone thought that this side-by-side picture might continue to the finish line, after Ye Chin passed the 50-meter line, his speed suddenly increased a bit, surpassing Sean Merritt.

From the start to the present, Ye Qin has accumulated the last bit of physical energy that has not exploded, and Ye Qin finally used it at this time.

Sean Merritt watched Yechin gradually overtake him, his entire face twitched instantly, while Jimmy Warner behind the two men got closer and closer to the finish line, slowing down a bit. .

He has some thoughts of giving up the game.

His current state and running skills are inferior to the peak period. Seeing the champion is hopeless, his heart is relaxed, and his body speed is also slowing down.

Twenty meters, ten meters…

Ye Qin clenched his teeth, and in this final sprint, he also burst out with all his strength.

For him, the hardest part to run 400 meters is from 250 seconds. He needs to maintain speed and endurance~www.mtlnovel.com~ By the last 50 meters, he basically reached the limit of physical fitness. !

Cross the line!

The audience suddenly boiled!

On the yellow time card, this group of men’s 400m results appeared in front of everyone.

43 seconds 98!

“43 seconds 98! Champion! Ye Qin won! Ye Qin won the men’s 400m championship again! Ye Qin achieved the men’s sprint triple crown in this World Championships!!!”

Almost as soon as Ye Qin crossed the finish line, the voice of commentator Mu Jiang rang with excitement again.

Although his tone was not nearly crazy and hysterical like the men’s 100 meters and men’s 200 meters before, it was still difficult to conceal the excitement in his tone.

On the big screen of the scene, after eight runners crossed the finish line, the men’s 400-meter performance of this group appeared in front of everyone at the same time.
