Run Out of My Life - Chapter 356
At 11:00 am local time on August 28th, the 2007 Osaka World Championships men’s 200m preliminaries are about to begin.
Because the time was approaching noon and the sun was full, there were not many spectators in the Nagai Stadium to watch the game, and the attendance rate of the nearly 50,000 audience was less than half.
In addition, many of the people in this half are tourists from China or other countries, who are specially here for the star players such as Su Zu and Tyson Gay.
The schedule of the men’s 200m race is basically the same as that of the last World Championships, and the race was held in three days. The preliminaries started at 11:10 on August 28, the rematch at 20:10 on August 28, the semi-finals at 22:20 on August 29, and the final at 22:20 on August 30.
The men’s 200-meter semi-finals and finals, like the previous Olympic World Championships, took into account the physical distribution of the players, and they started with an interval of one day, unlike the 100-meter semi-finals And the finals are held on the same day.
A total of 49 players participated in the men’s 200-meter race of this World Championships, and they were divided into 6 preliminaries, including 5 groups of 8 players and 1 group of 9 players.
The preliminaries of the men’s 200m are that the top four of each group will directly advance to the semi-finals, a total of 24 players, and then the top eight will be admitted according to the performance of the remaining players in each group, a total of 32 players Participate in the rematch.
“Suzu’s main opponent in the 200 meters should be Tyson Gay?”
Zhang Pingqiu sat in the first row of the audience seat and glanced at the track and field. At this time, the first group of men’s 200-meter preliminaries had appeared on the starting line of the track, adjusting their respective Emotions, make final preparations.
“Not necessarily, the young player Usain Bolt in Jamaica, and the American player Wallace Spearmont, these are all rivals. Especially that one The Jamaican athlete is only a few months older than Su Zu, but he has great potential. He broke the national men’s 200m record in Jamaica this year. We are also familiar with Spearmont, who is also very talented. “
Li Zhizhong heard Zhang Pingqiu’s words and took stock of several key runners in the 200 meters of this event. The most important opponents are not weak.
However, compared with other athletes, Tyson Gay has grown more rapidly in the past two years, and has jumped to the top three 100-meter athletes on the planet, and the top two 200-meter athletes .
In the US competition in June this year, Gay ran 9 seconds 84 and 19 seconds 62 in two consecutive days, becoming the second best person in history for these two events. . The first place was Su Zu’s 9.72 100m world record and 19.48’s 200-meter best.
After Su Zu defended the World Championships men’s 100m champion, the foreign media have made no secret of their admiration at this time, it seems that the bad singing of the previous period was not done by these people at all .
In many media announcements yesterday, many media have adopted Su to become the founder of the new 100m dynasty, with two world championships 100m gold medals, holding the world record, beating Asafa Powell and Tyson Gay. Suzu, like Carl Lewis and Maurice Green before him, began his dynasty.
What he lacks now is only a gold medal in the Olympic men’s 100m and the men’s 100m championship grand slam.
At the same time, in the face of the rise of Su Zu, an Asian Chinese sprinter, who occupies the first place in the world, the European and American field has also fallen into the era of hope to welcome the hero.
In the past, the trapeze Gatlin was struggling in the suspension, and the Jamaican trapeze Powell was unable to fight. The world 100m field needs a hero like Tyson Gay, which is also Tyson Gay this year. One of the reasons why Yi is chased by many media.
Now that the men’s 100-meter race is over, the world’s attention is naturally the men’s 200-meter race.
Compared to Su Zu, who was born in the 100-meter sprint, Tyson Gay started out as a 200-meter runner, and is more competitive in the 200-meter event.
However, at present, including Tyson Gay and many media, no one dares to shout the voice of winning the championship.
Su Zu’s 200-meter performance at the Osaka Grand Prix at the beginning of this year was too eye-catching, with a score of 19.48 seconds. In the era of Michael Johnson’s retirement, this was almost impossible to break through.
In the men’s 200m runners check-in area, a group of runners appeared, and then walked out of the mixed zone corridor and headed to the field.
Among the six preliminaries, Su Zu was in the fifth group, and when he entered the check-in area, several players came to greet him one after another.
“Su, your 100m run is amazing.”
A tall black youth ran to Su Zu with a grin and greeted him.
“Thank you, Usain.”
Su Zu looked at Usain Bolt, who had not been named the Jamaican Lightning at this time, feeling a little emotional and a little wary.
Suzu met Bolt at both the New York Grand Prix and the Lausanne Grand Prix this year. That time in New York, he didn’t stay much because of his poor grades and left in a hurry.
The time in Lausanne, he watched Bolt’s 200-meter race the whole way. Compared with the previous state of Suzu seeing Bolt, Yosse started this year. The most notable difference between En Bolt is that he is getting more and more lean.
From the outside, the Bolt he saw this year is not necessarily much stronger than Bolt in 2004, but the muscles of the exposed arms and legs are completely different. language.
In addition, the confidence and state of the whole person are completely different from before.
In one competition and one competition after another, he has accumulated enough competition experience and won the most important games to build his confidence.
This year’s Jamaica National Championships, the men’s 200m Jamaica national record, an amazing score of 19.75 seconds, which is the result that Suzu won at the Helsinki World Championships two years ago.
This result is already one of the top men’s 200 meters.
“Usain, I heard that you also switched to the event to run 100 meters?”
Su Zu remembered the timeline of time and space, and estimated that the Jamaican Lightning should start running 100 meters at this time.
“I already ran a race.” The tall black Jamaican youth grinned, raised an index finger, and continued, “It’s a small-level competition, but I’m the champion. Hey Su, maybe the next time we race the track will be 100 meters.”
“What about this one?”
Su Zu smiled, Usain Bolt is different from Tyson Gay, this is a Jamaican black man who loves to play On the field, he would often tell jokes and amused off the field. He has very good personal friendships with fellow competitors Wallace Spearmont and Richard Thompson.
Of course, on the field, Su Zu never dared to despise the opponent, and along the way, he aimed at the opponent and constantly tempered himself.
“This?” Usain Bolt patted his chest, “In addition to Tyson Gay, you have a good opponent.”
Speaking, he looked at the check-in area and started to line up. He was in the fourth group of the preliminaries. At this time, the staff had already started calling.
“Okay, see you in the finals, I have to go get a place first.”
“Good luck!”
After Usain Bolt left, Suzu performed a simple warm-up, and several athletes came over to greet him.
The king of the 100-meter sprint in the field today, and the 200-meter runner who has the most hope of breaking Michael Johnson, will attract the attention of countless people wherever he goes.
Even if many of these people regard him as an athlete who surpasses his goals, they are willing to be better than him at this time.
The Greek national track and field 200-meter athlete Anastasios Gocsis, who was in the same group as Suzu, repeatedly invited Suzu to warm up on the indoor track with Suzu. If you go to Athens to participate in the Grand Prix, you must inform him, and he will ask Su Zu to appreciate the local cultural and historical scenery of Athens.
Anastasios Gauss, Suzu once played against the opponent in the men’s 200m semi-final at the Athens Olympics.
Anastasios Gausses’ elimination in the semifinals of that game sparked the long-standing dissatisfaction of the Greek audience at the time. 2000 Sydney Olympic 200-meter champion Greek athlete Kentris was suspended for evading a drug test before the race. At that time, the Olympic Stadium was full of boos, and all kinds of beverage bottles and debris flew around. It was the most impressive game for Su Zu.
Osaka local time, 11:30 am.
The Nagai Stadium was steaming hot, and the four men’s 200-meter preliminaries had already competed for the promotion spots, and the fifth group of players followed closely on the field.
In the 1-200-meter sprint, before Su Zu appeared, black runners were completely dominant.
Especially in the finals, it is rare to see yellow or white people, but in the first round of the preliminaries, in addition to blacks, there are many other skin color players .
Suzu’s group, in addition to Greece’s Anastasios Gauss, is a white player, and Marcin Jedrusinski from Poland is also a white player white players.
In addition to the absolute speed contest, the men’s 200-meter race has extremely high requirements for cornering skills and speed endurance. In comparison, there are only long-distance track races starting from 200 meters In the event, only the yellow racers and the white racers are eligible to compete.
Like the current top men’s 400 meters player, American athlete Jeremy Warina is a white athlete, and his excellence lies in his strong physical fitness and speed retention.
non-black athletes.
Later Japan once made a series called “Body Miracle”, taking Asafa Powell and Asahara Xuanji as examples, in-depth analysis of the gap between top black sprinters and other skin color athletes .
From the toughness and strength of the tendon, to the technical skills of running, muscle mass, etc., all are analyzed through three-dimensional data.
When conducting internal transmission, several Japanese researchers lifted the veil of this racial difference to a certain extent.
The most amazing gap comes from the psoas muscle. The psoas muscle is located on the lateral side of the lumbar vertebrae and in front of the transverse process of the lumbar vertebrae.
The main function of the psoas muscle is to act as a lumbar stabilizer, flexing or stabilizing the hip joint. The psoas muscle is one of the most important muscles in the human body, it connects the trunk and the legs and is the basis for standing and walking.
Walking starts from the trunk, and then is transmitted to the legs by the psoas major. Simply put, it is the degree of development of the psoas major, which determines the speed of walking and running in a sense. After all, the more developed the psoas, the more he can stretch his hips and legs for movement.
And this whole body scan and dialysis found that Powell’s psoas muscle was twice that of Asahara Xuanzhi. When Asahara Xuanzhi looked at the realistic picture of the internal dialysis body’s waist cross-section, his eyes were almost frozen.
They are also sprinters. From the perspective of training, Xuanzhi Chaohara’s hard work and intensity will not be much worse than Powell’s, but the development of the psoas major of the two makes the final two in There is a huge difference of 0.3-0.4 seconds in the 100 meters.
This “Body Miracle” human body reveal column, although not necessarily completely objective and credible, but in a sense, tells the gap between the human body.
Since then, the training focus of Japanese sprinters for athletes has shifted from the individual 100-meter or 200-meter project to the 4×100-meter project that emphasizes teamwork.
After the sound of gunfire in the preliminaries of the fifth group, Su Zu kept running all the way.
It’s different from the early 2004 where he went all out in every game. Now he has enough competition experience and confidence in the competition. No matter what level of competition and what kind of opponent he faces, he is getting better and better. Take it easy.
From the start, he has always been in the middle position, until after the corner, the last 80-meter straight sprint, surpassed the leader in his group. Nastasios Gauss.
In the end, when Suzu crossed the finish line first in 20.02 seconds, Anastasios Gausses also ran out of 20.11 seconds. common results.
Greek athletes have always had a good tradition in the 200-meter event. For non-black athletes, it is the top level in the second echelon, which is rare in the world sports.
Occasionally some events, such as the 2000 Sydney Olympic Games, can still perform exceptionally and qualify for the championship.
And when the men’s 200m preliminaries at noon ended, the preliminaries of Suzu and Anastasios Gauss also ranked first among all the preliminaries two.
The third place was Usain Bolt who patted his chest with Su Zu before the game, indicating that he would be his competitor, with a score of 20.12.
Because it is a preliminaries, the strong players are reserved, and they can basically advance to the semi-finals with a score of 20 seconds 83.
The men’s 200-meter rematch at 20:10 in the evening was much more intense than the preliminaries. Among the thirty-two players who were able to advance to the semi-finals, at this time when their level was relatively average, they had already started to do their best.
The semi-finals are 32 to 16, and the top four from the four semi-final groups will directly advance to the semi-finals.
Su Zu’s performance in this round of rematch was 19.98 seconds, ranking first in the rematch, while the second, third and second in the group were replaced by Tyson Gay and Usain Bolt.
Australian Patrick Johnson finished 16th with a score of 20.62.
& nbsp; & nbsp; & nbsp; & nbsp; before the game was optimistic about the Japanese side, he had the opportunity to impact the top eight players to continue Shenwu, Gao Ping Shen Shi, and Peng Ye Shenshan. With a score of 77 seconds and 20 seconds 89, regrettably out.
This also led to a sharp drop in the number of spectators in the women’s long jump final, the women’s 800-meter final, the women’s 400-meter hurdles semi-final and the men’s 400-meter hurdles final after the men’s 200-meter rematch. A large number of local audiences in Osaka, Japan left the venue early.
The Osaka World Athletics Championships produced a total of six gold medals on the 28th. The Kenyan and Russian teams were strong, winning two gold medals each, becoming the big winners of the day.
At this time, the focus of the media at home and abroad was not on other games.
Now the world’s attention is focused on the men’s 200m semi-final on the 29th and the men’s 200m final on the 30th.
After defending the men’s 100m title, Su Zu will attack his second gold medal at the World Championships, and can he once again defeat his opponent Tyson Gay and break Michael Johnson The 200-meter world record created has become the biggest suspense in this world championship so far.
