Run Out of My Life - Chapter 337

    “Onyourmarks!”

    Pop!

    A shot rang out.

    In the Nagai Stadium in Osaka, it was like being doused with fuel, the heat was radiating and the sky was boiling.

    On the track, at the starting line of the curve, 9 athletes started to accelerate like arrows from the string.

    In the cheering atmosphere of the audience, a contestant in the fourth lane was incredibly fast. He only ran a distance of 60 to 70 meters, and the corner was just over halfway through. He achieved an absolute advantage, with a strong pace and extremely fast pace, and he was completely unmatched.

    “Suzu!”

    “Suzu!”

    More than 40,000 spectators at the scene were completely overwhelmed by the performance of the voice on the track. Players from their own countries and other countries couldn’t help but shout the name of the leading player.

     Exclamations and shouts came out from the audience, and finally gathered an invisible sound wave in the entire Osaka Nagai Stadium.

    On the arena, after Su Zu ran through the corner, there was a straight road of less than 100 meters in front of him, and his eyes were firmly fixed on the finish line.

    Fast arm swing, powerful and large stride, far exceeding the cadence of ordinary people, excellent ability to maintain speed in the second half. An on-site commentator of Osaka TV station was a bit tongue-tied for a while, but he got stuck and didn’t have a particularly good expression.

    On the contrary, a commentator of NHK TV maintained a particularly good professional quality, and the speed of speech was as fast as a bullet, “Su Zujun started very well, this is the world’s top starting speed. Su Zu started to speed up, and he surpassed the other players by a large margin. It is unbelievable that Su Zu established an advantage at the 80-meter position and sealed the victory…”

    “19 seconds 48, Su Zu ran 19 seconds 48… This is a new Asian record, and Su Zu’s performance in the 200 meters is also unexpectedly amazing. It is indeed the pride of Asia, the yellow species The strongest among men, the man who rules the speed…”

      American players Wallace Spearmont and Rodney Martin, as well as Curanti Martina from the Netherlands Antilles, are a few meters or even ten meters away from Suzu.

    “19 seconds 48?!”

    After Su Zu crossed the finish line, looking at the results displayed on the timing board, his face was slightly stunned, and then he shook his head with a faint smile.

    In the men’s 200-meter race, he did not meet a strong competitor. Wallace Spearmont’s strength is not bad, but in this year’s first grand prix, it seems that Not fully in the state yet.

    Another American player, Rodney Martin, was also born in 1982. In 2005, he ran the indoor 200 meters with a good result of 20.38 seconds. However, in this Osaka Grand Prix, the two did not pose any threat to Su Zu.

    In addition, Curanti Martina’s current 200-meter level has not yet entered within 20 seconds. Compared with other competitors, such as Japan’s local Suzu Shingo, Curran Ti Martina’s strength is relatively much stronger, but it is more than a cut away from Su Zu’s stable performance.

    Su Zu didn’t have too many ideas for this 200 meters, but Li Zhizhong asked him to run as hard as he could to test the results of the winter training. Judging from the results, it seemed to be pretty good.

     “Congratulations, Su Zu, your 200m speed is as fast as a bolt of lightning.”

    In the finish area, Wallace Spearmont, who finished 200 meters, walked up to Suzu and congratulated him.

    “Thank you!”

    Suzu and Wallace Spearmont hugged gently to show their thanks, then opened their hands and waved to the tens of thousands of spectators.

    The 2007 World Championships was held in Osaka, Japan, and this time the organizers of the Osaka Grand Prix spent a lot of manpower and material resources. On the one hand, they warmed up the World Championships in advance, and on the other hand, they also tested Ability to prepare for competitions in all aspects. If China held the Magic City Gold Grand Prix in 2005, it would be the same as sending the entire team to Helsinki to study.

    As the most important sports cities in Japan, the residents of Osaka have a passion for athletics. At today’s Grand Prix, the number of local Japanese spectators who came to watch the race was much higher than the number of people Suzu had raced in Osaka in previous years.

    In addition, because of this year’s World Championships in Osaka, not only the number of spectators is large this year, but the organizers have invested more. In terms of athletes, the average strength of the players who participated in the Grand Prix in Osaka is also higher than that of previous years. Much higher.

    Osaka Grand Prix, as the first few races of the IAAF Tour season, due to its location in East Asia and the schedule of the race, it used to be difficult to attract many top sprinters from Central America come to the competition. In order to prepare for this year’s World Championships, this Osaka Grand Prix is ​​completely different. There are many players from Trinidad and Tobago and even Panama.

    “Director Li, it seems that Su Zu is still in good condition.”

    Zhang Pingqiu stood outside the arena, watching the scene on the big screen where Su Zu raised his hands high and gestured to the audience in all directions, he still couldn’t hold back a burst of excitement.

    Men’s 200m 19.48, can be said to be one of the best results in the past decade, and the closest to Michael Johnson’s 19.32 men’s 200m world record.

    At the beginning of the season, Su Zu was able to have such an extraordinary performance, and Zhang Pingqiu had to be excited.

    Su Zu’s game characteristics are too obvious. If you are strong, you will be stronger. If there are players with similar strength in this game, Su Zu may be able to run faster than this. .

    Li Zhizhong also had a satisfied smile on his face, looked at Su Zu on the field to receive cheers, and shook his head slightly unconsciously, “I’ll wait for Su Zu to finish 100 runs. It’s not too late for Mi to be happy.”

    In 2007, the new season, the winter training at the Hagen Base ended, Su Zu had such a performance on the field, Li Zhizhong was very satisfied, and he also wanted to see Su Zu’s limit where will be.

    The speed endurance training in the sub-altitude of the Hagen base for two consecutive years, Su Zu’s performance in the 100 meters has been obvious, last year’s center of gravity has been on the 100 meters, and this year… Shaking your head and running 200 meters is also a better choice.

    In the athlete’s lounge, after Su Zu finished the men’s 200-meter race, Jiang Daheng was doing a muscle massage for him to relax and hurry up to recover.

    “Hey, Su Zu, is the strength appropriate?” Jiang Daheng asked while slapping the muscles of Su Zu’s calf.

    “Ah? What?!” Su Zu recovered slightly.

    “I ask you if the strength is acceptable?” Jiang Daheng asked again.

    “Uh… it’s okay.” Su Zu replied absentmindedly.

    “You…” Jiang Daheng shook his head, “Don’t put too much pressure on yourself, the world record is ours.”

    He has seen this kind of situation a lot these days. Su Zu seems to be completely addicted to it. I called him often, but he didn’t respond. Even if he came back to his senses, he soon became addicted to it again.

    Like now, Su Zu was lying on the massage table with his eyes half-squinted, Jiang Daheng was giving him physical therapy, and he didn’t seem to have much reaction.

    “Who can break the world record if you don’t break it.” Jiang Daheng gave Su Zu a muscle massage and sighed in a low voice.

    “Huh? Master Jiang, what are you talking about?”

    It seems that the words Jiang Daheng said to himself were heard by Su Zu again, he turned his head slightly and asked Jiang Daheng.

    “It’s fine.” Jiang Daheng patted Su Zu’s shoulder, “Go and warm up, the game is about to begin.”

    “Oh, okay, thanks for the hard work, Mr. Jiang.”

    Su Zu nodded and got up from the massage table.

    Leaving the lounge, Su Zu walked all the way to the indoor warm-up track in the inspection area, but he was still thinking about the technical movements repeatedly in his mind. “The steps for the first three steps are slightly larger, which can make the acceleration more sufficient, but you also have to control the cadence. When training at the Hagen base before, I used the stride acceleration method of accelerating the first half a few times to run 200 meters. OK, but the start time for running 100 meters is too slow.

      .

    Not necessarily. I used to have a decent start. What Master used to improve my movements was Carl Lewis’s method. In the first half of the course, the steps should be strong and powerful, the steps should be larger, and the speed should be fully increased.

    I have compared the videos of the previous races, and in the first three steps of the start, my stride is not small, it should be from the fourth step to the fifth step, and it will descend when I start to accelerate of. The quick cadence acceleration took my stride down a bit. If I controlled the acceleration in the first half of the race like I did in the 200-meter run earlier, and the stride was larger, it should be the highest speed stage on my way, and the stride was actually not ideal. “

     Along the way, Su Zu’s mind turned over and over in his memory of the scenes he had played in, his own and his opponents, starting from Chen Jian and Shen Yunbao in the National Grand Prix, until The running skills of top players such as Justin Gatlin and Asafa Powell from Europe and the United States.

    While training at the Hagen base, he also watched a lot of videos of former sprinters in the 80s and 90s. Like Carl Lewis, Dovanobel, Maurice Green and Michael Johnson to name a few.

    Summarize the experience of various players to optimize their crafting skills.

    In a detailed analysis, he has not been in the field of sprinting for a long time, but in fact, there have been many changes in technology. Starting from running 60 meters, the original front and rear feet and the first half of the fast pace accelerated, and at the back, it was changed to a large stride start acceleration similar to Justin Gatlin, and inadvertently learned some of Powell’s running techniques.

    On the whole, ordinary people can hardly see any technical points when watching the video of the game, but through the analysis of the video frame by frame, it will be found that Su Zu’s technology has changed a lot over the years.

    Li Zhizhong’s training is one aspect, and the other is Su Zu’s physical changes as his strength and agility improve.

    Li Zhizhong’s strength in the field of sprinting is undoubtedly a very good set of training strength. Later, Lao Li expanded from this aspect, including muscle explosive power, speed endurance, all of which have been improved to varying degrees. It is the growth of Su Zu.

    However, the technical requirements did not give Su Zu absolutely meticulous carving, which is what Su Zu gradually realized later.

    He can break records again and again under the pressure of Asafa Powell. In a sense, his potential should be more than this, and he may go further, but the current technology limits his play. It has become that if you want to make a breakthrough, you can only perform high-intensity training to increase strength, agility, and speed-related physical qualities.

    At the moment, these qualities that can be related to his absolute speed are not easy to improve. As mentioned earlier, the improvement of strength and quality does not come out of thin air, and requires more muscles in the body. And this will make the body bloated to some extent, but it will lose the ability to speed, dexterity and balance.

    Top sprinters are strong, but never too strong.

    …

    “I don’t know how amazing Su Zujun will perform in the 100 meters this time? Compared with the men’s 200 meters, I look forward to his performance in the 100 meters. I don’t know if it is my illusion. I’m not too excited about Su Zu breaking the Asian record.”

    “Yes, Su Zujun’s achievements in recent years are simply the glory of our yellow race. Whenever I see Su Zujun running on the runway, I always have a feeling of flying. Really. He’s the fastest man in the world.”

    “Judging from the men’s 200-meter race just now, Su Zujun will set a new high this new season, and is likely to break the 100-meter world record again. I am really looking forward to it.”

    “No no, I don’t think the 100-meter world record should be so easy to break for a while. At least it’s definitely not possible in this game.”

    “Why is it not easy to break through, Su Zujun just showed the absolute speed of the fastest man on the ground, with a score of 19.48 seconds, which is already a new Asian record for the men’s 200 meters. Close to ‘Forrest Gump’.”

    “Let’s wait and see. The men’s 100-meter trapeze competition in this Osaka Grand Prix will begin soon. We will see the world’s fastest speed, red lightning galloping on the track in this game. “

    At this time, the three commentators on the NHK TV station were chatting with each other. As the Osaka Grand Prix, one of the previews of the Osaka World Championships this year, the three commentators present were quite popular in the Japanese sports world. famous.

    In response to Su Zu’s upcoming performance on the track and field, they each put forward their own views.

    As the time draws near, the straight track in Nagai Stadium in Osaka has been cleared. In the just-concluded men’s 110-meter hurdles competition, Liu Yangyu won the championship with 13.14 seconds. The final highlight of the Osaka Grand Prix, the men’s 100-meter trapeze battle, will begin immediately.

    Standing on the track, Su Zu looked at the men’s 100-meter runners from left and right. Although neither Tyson Gay nor Asafa Powell came to participate, it may be this year The relationship between the World Championships, there are still many masters who adapt to the venue in advance to participate in the Grand Prix.

    And this Grand Prix because Tyson Gay and Leonard Scott did not participate in the future, Wallace Spearmont only participated in the 200 meters, which is rare without the United States The Grand Prix competition in which the contestants participated.

    The nine runners who participated in the men’s 100m race at the 2007 Osaka Grand Prix in Japan were: the first Slovenian Madik Osovnikar, the second Trinidad and Douglas Bagger Richard Thompson, 3rd course Nigeria Orusoki Fasuba, 4th course Suzu, 5th course Bahamas Derek Atkins, 6th course Trinidad and Toba Brother Mark Burns, the seventh Japanese player Asahara Xuanji, the eighth British Marlon Devnish, and the ninth Japanese player Naoki Tsukahara, because Susuke Shingo participated in the men’s 200m race, He replaced Susuke Shingo in the men’s 100m race.

    From the lineup of the competition, it can be seen that the rise of Central American players is unstoppable. Even if there is no Jamaica, Trinidad and Tobago, Panama and other Caribbean sprinters are also in the International Athletics. The forum is becoming more and more active.

    Will the 2007 World Championships be expected?

    This Osaka Grand Prix is ​​also a rare event where Su Zu participated in the men’s 200-meter race, followed by the men’s 100-meter race.

    Generally in the Grand Prix or Super Grand Prix and the Golden League, very few players will run concurrently (except the IAAF Finals). One reason is the issue of the number of invitations, and the other is the IAAF Tour held on the same day. The men’s 200-meter race is usually before the 100-meter race. Few runners can run the 200-meter race just after the interval. Two hours and then go to run the 100 meters can still have ideal results. This is a big test for players’ physical recovery.

    Su Zu participated in the men’s 200 meters at the Osaka Grand Prix this time, and then participated in the men’s 100 meters, which is very rare.

    Looking at the runway in front of him, the first thought in Su Zu’s mind was whether he would finish running in 43 steps or 44 steps this time.

    Over the past few months, he has been working hard to improve his stride and cadence, and his entire running rhythm has changed. The results also fluctuated a bit, but Su Zu understood that this was an inevitable result that had to be faced.

    Make changes, the natural results are good and bad, what can be done is to make efforts and try to make the results better.

    “Onyourmarks!”

    On the edge of the track, the starter designated by the IAAF shouted.

    The warm atmosphere of the scene suddenly became quiet.

    Su Zu took a breath, looked at the finish line in the distance, and walked to the starting line.
