Run Out of My Life - Chapter 362
Su Zu is carefully measuring the step point in the relay area of the fourth baton.
Because he has focused on the change of his stride and running style this year, he has not done much in practice with other members of the relay team.
Fortunately, since 2004, the coach in charge of the relay team has been coach Yuan Guohua. Su Zu and the other three relay team members have the same running skills.
Before in 2005, everyone had a very tacit cooperation, and then in 2006, he also practiced for a period of time in the team. Before preparing for the World Championships this year, he has been participating in the Golden League in Europe .
In just a few days after returning to China, I also had training with several people.
Su Bingtian’s skills and level would have been more suitable for the third run, his short-distance acceleration ability is slightly better than Wen Yongyi, but Su Zu and Su Bingtian’s handover training is better Less, still not very tacit understanding.
On the contrary, it is Wen Yongyi, because when we were preparing for the Helsinki World Championships together, we had a lot of practice.
When the relay team took part in the preliminaries yesterday, Su Zu was also quite nervous off the field.
Coach Yuan Guohua communicated with Su Zu in advance, and said that he would let Su Zu take a day off to see the performance of other relay team members. At that time, Su Zu was actually quite nervous.
In the original time and space, the Chinese relay team could not even get the men’s 4×100 meters in the World Championships at this stage. , but at this time, they are still very young, and they are not the team that can qualify for the top three medals except Jamaica and the United States.
At that time, Su Zu was ready. If the relay team was out, he would probably convey to the media that the relay team failed to enter the final because he was too tired to play.
After all, coach Yuan Guohua has given too much to this relay team. Su Zu’s title of defending the men’s 1200m champion at the World Championships is enough for the other side to take part.
But the ending was far beyond what Su Zu expected.
For a moment, Su Zu even felt as if he was at the scene of the men’s 4×100m relay race at the 2004 Athens Olympic Games.
Chen Jian, Yang Guangzong, and Shen Yunbao at that time, they were just like this, they did their best, and they ran out of the ordinary and achieved unprecedented results.
When Su Zu, who was standing on the fourth pole, saw Shen Yunbao running towards him fast and not too far behind the other players, his trembling and excitement at that moment was unparalleled.
You have all done your best, how dare I let your efforts go to waste!
Run!
At this moment, these faces as young as him, with a burning desire to win, even in the face of the strongest United States and Jamaica in the world today, they are still eager to try, full of confidence and enthusiasm hope.
After the final of the 2005 World Championships in Helsinki, Wen Yongyi and Zhang Peimeng, who were standing on the track in silent tears, would not have known the road to the championship without so much effort. How tough.
And now, they are ready to prove themselves on the field.
Su Zu sometimes doesn’t know if it’s because of the butterfly effect after his appearance, maybe it is, at least in the field of track and field, in the field of sprinting, he has changed some people and things.
Compared with another time and space, at this stage, the Chinese sprint project has become more competitive even without his achievements.
He did not play in the men’s 4×100m relay preliminaries of the World Championships, but the performances of Su Bingtian, Zhang Peimeng, Wen Yongyi and Chen Yuhang all showed that the Chinese sprint event advance in the field.
Better Chinese people’s attention, the emergence of more talents, more advanced training methods, more policy support and investment, the Chinese track and field team’s growing confidence in the field of men’s sprint, these are all It used to be unthinkable.
And now it’s all happening so real.
Su Zu measured step by step along the ninth track. He was at the edge of the ninth track, so when measuring the steps, he always followed the outer circle of the track Walking in blank space.
As he carefully measured the step points, the thoughts rolled in his mind and his heart was up and down.
The game that had the most profound impact on the Chinese track and field relay race in his memory was the 2015 World Championships at the Bird’s Nest. The Chinese team was also ninth in the men’s 4×100-meter relay race. Road, and the Chinese team created the most brilliant results in that game.
Because of the foul of the U.S. team, they won the silver medal in the men’s 4×100-meter relay at the World Championships. Even for Su Zu, the brilliance of that game was so far away that it seemed to be a matter of time and space. , but he still remembers it very clearly.
And today they are still in the ninth lane, I wonder if they can run an excellent result.
Su Zu felt a burst of passion in his heart, which is the emotion he does not have when running on the 100-meter 200-meter track alone. This is the strength of the team.
There are teammates around to fight, he is not alone!
The cheers of tens of thousands of people are still high-pitched, and even in the numerous sun flags, thousands of spectators from China can be seen waving five-star red flags.
“…The players on the scene have finished measuring their step points, and the camera is given to Su Zu, who is the fourth best. As the athlete with the best performance in this competition, Su Zu still attracted a lot of people. Look. We look forward to the Chinese team to create the same results as the men’s 110-meter hurdles in the ninth track…”
In Yang Jian’s commentary at the scene, whether it was in front of the TV or the audience watching the game, their emotions were also aroused little by little.
Before the starting line, the referee and the starter were whispering, as if to confirm that all 32 athletes participating in the relay were ready.
“Onyourmarks!”
A clear bell of the referee rang through the stadium.
The dignified pre-match tension climbed to the highest level, and the lively and noisy arena suddenly became quiet. The voices in their respective positions are reminding the players to take their places, and it seems to silence the sound in the arena.
And it seems that because of the participation of the Japanese team in this relay, the large number of Japanese spectators showed a better order than the previous competition.
The huge stadium with nearly 50,000 people seemed to stand still for a moment, and it became quiet.
The first eight players stepped onto the starting block one by one. The Chinese team is the ninth lane, and it is the first position at the starting stage of the curve.
In front of the starting line, Su Bingtian pressed his arms from left to right and twisted his body habitually.
He was so nervous just now, but when he was really ready to start running, his mind became clear.
He held the baton in his right hand, and measured the distance between the palm of his hand and the starting line like his left hand, and his feet slowly landed on the running aid.
completed.
It’s finally here!
Countless times of boring and repetitive training to make people crazy, just for this moment.
Don’t drop the chain!
Su Bingtian took a light breath, and bent down.
“SET!”
A preparatory voice came from the loudspeaker behind the first player, and almost all the audience could hear it very clearly in the suddenly quiet scene.
The first eight runners got up at the same time and took the starting position.
Pop!
The match shot!
In the quiet auditorium, when the gunshots sounded, it was like a tinderbox that exploded suddenly, and all kinds of cheering shouts came one after another.
Su Bingtian’s starting reaction was very fast. At this time, he could not reach the almost invincible level of the first 20 meters in later generations, but the ultra-fast cadence and reaction speed were already visible at this time. clues.
An instant start, the two fastest players on the field, one is Su Bingtian in the ninth lane, and the other is the veteran Davis Barton of the sixth U.S. team.
Davis Barton, born in 1977, has passed his thirties and is an older sprinter in the sprint event, but he is indeed the strongest among all the first runners. He can run 100 meters The 10-second mark, or even the 9-second 90 mark.
Davies Barton was the third in the preliminaries, and in the final, he replaced the original Rodney Martin with more experience and competition strength, and the American team The effect of this adjustment is obvious.
Davis Barton was almost 40 meters away when he overtook Vicente de Lima, who was the first Brazilian team in the seventh lane.
However, Su Bingtian’s current lack of strength in the middle and second half is still very serious. After 60 meters, the speed has shown a significant decline. However, among the top players, Su Bingtian was not far behind.
In addition to Davis Barton of the United States, Marvin Anderson of Jamaica and Christian Markham of the United Kingdom, the first players of the eight teams exceeded three players, Su Bingtian From the Japanese team Naoki Tsukahara, Germany’s Ronnie Ostwald and there is not much gap.
And due to the huge difference in the number of stretches at the start, Su Bingtian in the ninth lane could hardly see his opponent from the start.
The comparative advantage of the first eight players mentioned here is only a comparison of relative speed.
Among the eight contestants in the first course, Su Bingtian is not tall, but the state of running hard has to be eye-catching. Wearing a red tracksuit, he has done almost everything he can currently do to the extreme.
The passion and fighting spirit in his body when he ran seemed to infect many Chinese people who noticed his performance on the sidelines and in front of the TV.
I don’t know if I’m a talented person, all I have to do is 100% training and 100% playing.
Take every game as the last game of your life, fight hard, fight for it, to achieve that point is impossible!
Cornering into the straight!
The first and the second are handed over!
The American team took the lead in completing this action. The first team of the American team, Davis Barton, was a player who could actually sprint within 10 seconds of the 100-meter dash. Although he returned from injury this year and only finished eighth in the National Championships, his performance in the relay event is still at the level of a current world’s top sprinter.
He was followed by Jamaica and the United Kingdom. The first team of the two teams, Marvin Anderson and Christian Markham, were in equal strength, and the two teams arrived at the handover almost at the same time. area.
Then Brazil, Nigeria… The last three teams are Japan, China and Germany…
After Zhang Peimeng heard the gunshots in the relay area of the ninth road, the muscles of his body trembled slightly.
Not nervousness, not fear.
He consulted the team doctor and coach about his own problems, and everyone was a little surprised by his performance.
This is actually a certain quality of a top-level miracle athlete.
Before the competition, the body suddenly began to secrete adrenal hormones under the dual stimulation of internal and external.
For an athlete, as long as he has a strong psychological quality and can completely control himself, it is easy to create new results in the competition.
Zhang Peimeng felt this way at the moment, his body was accumulating power like a powder keg that was nearing the breaking point.
Bent over in the relay area, turned her head slightly and waited for the approach of her teammates.
A red figure went around the corner, Zhang Peimeng watched Su Bingtian’s hair all fly backwards because he was running too fast, and the veins jumped on his face.
Almost as soon as Su Bingtian stepped on the position where he counted his steps, Zhang Peimeng turned back suddenly and started to accelerate.
Among the athletes of the yellow race, there are not many athletes who can run very fast with a height of more than 1.85 meters, and there is a common problem that the start and acceleration are not fast.
Zhang Peimeng has been improving his skills in this area for more than two years, and because his height is close to Su Zu, he also conducted a lot of strength training and starting exercises under Li Zhizhong.
In the relay project, this feature of his is very compatible with Su Bingtian or Wen Yongyi.
His starting speed was not very fast, and the speed of the other two people also slowed down in the middle and second half of the journey, and it was easier for everyone to achieve a more tacit cooperation.
One step, two steps, three steps…
Zhang Peimeng’s stride is large, and his speed is gradually increasing in one large stride after another.
“Take it!”
A voice that seemed to be venting all its strength suddenly sounded behind his ears.
The movements that have been tempered and tempered are naturally like a person.
Although the speed of the first bat of the Chinese team is not as good as that of other teams, when the handover is completed, the relative ranking of the Chinese team is rising rapidly.
From the seventh place just slightly better than the German team, it suddenly jumped to the second place behind the United States, Britain, Jamaica, and the Japanese team who also completed the handover quickly.
The second team of the U.S. team is Wallace Spearmont, and the Jamaica team is Usain Bolt. Both of them are professional 200-meter athletes, with superhuman speed to maintain Ability, the longest second bar in the 4x100m event couldn’t be more appropriate.
After completing the handover, he began to show his strength far beyond other players.
The second bat of the British team is Craig Pickering, a white guy. Although he may not have the advantage in absolute speed, the tacit cooperation of the British team and superb handover skills , the handover of one or two bars saved him a lot of time, and he was almost one step faster than Jamaica in completing the handover.
The cheers and cheers on the field are higher than waves.
Zhang Peimeng raised his head and saw Wen Yongyi waiting at the end of the second straight, and his speed also increased to the highest at this moment.
In 2005, he entered the world championship stage for the first time.
Be ashamed and brave!
If he hadn’t been on the big stage like the World Championships, had not participated in the Magic Capital Grand Prix and competed with many top sprinters for two consecutive years, maybe he might still be looking at a domestic sprinter. One-third of an acre.
I also thought that maybe I could run for 10 seconds 20, 10 seconds 30 or so.
But now, I have seen a higher stage, and seen the figures I once looked up to, how can I be willing to be a frog in the bottom of a well, and only be proud in my own small circle?
…
The Jamaican team in the second bar is amazing. At this time, there are only a few people who can beat him in the sprint field, and among these people, there is no appearance in the second bar. .
Even Wallace Spearmont of the US team is not a match for Bolt at this stage.
The Jamaican team’s first bat was slower than the US team, and the movement skills of handing over the baton were not necessarily faster than the US team, but Bolt’s amazing strength in the second bat, This advantage was leveled almost quickly, and he quickly chased after Spearmont’s figure.
Because of the difference between the inner and outer lanes of 4×100 meters, the number of stretches from the first bar is different for the eight teams.
The first calculated line of the international standard runway is 400 meters long, the second is 407 meters, and the eighth calculated line is an astonishing 453 meters.
In other words, the distance between two adjacent passes is about seven or eight meters before and after the position of the first starting line.
Of course, as the players run, the number of stretches will gradually level out, and when they reach the fourth bar, they are almost all in a horizontal position.
“…The start of the game, Su Bingtian’s starting speed is very good, his pace is very fast…The handover of the first and second baton, okay, beautiful, Zhang Peimeng successfully got the handover baton, Zhang Pei Meng Zai has a strong ability to maintain speed in the second half, and he has been stabilizing his position…”
Amid the din and cheers, the audience in front of the TV looked at a few flying figures passing by on the big screen, and could hardly tell who was leading. And Yang Jian’s passionate commentary made their nervous hearts tense together with the red figure in the most outlandish way.
The Chinese team is in the eighth lane, the most outside lane. When the first pass was handed over, because of the number of stretches, it was almost impossible to see how fast the other lanes were handed over. Zhang At this moment, Pei Meng was running on the straight and could not see any other players surpassing him.
But the intense footsteps and the almost real pressure made him understand that other players were chasing him.
Dash, Dash, Dash!
Two and three sticks handover area.
Straight into the corner!
At the third bar, the position change brought about by the number of stretches is not as much as the first bar. The eighth lane not far behind Wen Yongyi is the third player of the Nigeria team.
He watched Zhang Peimeng’s figure approaching rapidly, and was always running in the leading position on the straight.
But the long-term relay training made it easy for Wen Yong to understand that this is just a visual error message. At this time, Zhang Peimeng must be behind, but how much behind, relative to the eight teams The ranking he did not know.
At this moment, he has no intention to calculate these things, but has been silently mobilizing all the power in his body, waiting for Zhang Peimeng to enter the position where he calculated the step point in advance.
The footsteps of puff puff are from far to near, even in such a frenzied and noisy scene, it seems to be faintly audible.
Zhang Peimeng’s figure continued to enlarge in his sight, and seemed to be rushing towards him with unmatched speed.
This is the time!
In an instant, Wen Yongyi suddenly turned around and started to accelerate when Zhang Peimeng stepped on the position where he calculated the step point.
In the 4×100m relay event, the average strength of the Chinese team and the Japanese team is significantly weaker than other Asian teams. The biggest reliance is the advantage of handing over the baton.
As soon as the second best player arrives, the third best player will fully accelerate, and the remaining time is enough to make up for the lack of personal strength.
“Take it!”
Wen Yongyi heard a roar behind him when he was running fast and accelerating.
Almost completely subconsciously, he reached back, and the baton in Zhang Peimeng’s hand had already landed firmly on his hand.
Now, it is to complete the task of the last journey and pass the baton to Su Zu.
Wen Yongyi only had this thought left in his mind, he didn’t think about winning or losing, and he didn’t think about who was ahead.
The handover of the second and third sticks is over, and the U.S. team has won another victory and gained a huge lead.
Tyson Gay had a handover error in 2005. At that time, he and his teammates did not cooperate well, and the loss of the baton led to the exit of the US team.
And this time the person who handed over to him was Wallace Spearmont, his training partner in college, the two were not only 200-meter competitors, but also teammates who were most familiar with each other and partner.
The U.S. team achieved a perfect handover of two and three sticks, and the speed reached the extreme in an instant.
In the third position, Tyson Gay suddenly surpassed the front.
This front is not the first relative position, but the first position visible to the naked eye on the track site. Tyson Gay in lane 6 overtook Brazil in lane 7, Nigeria in lane 8 and China in lane 9.
The British team and the Brazilian team were next to complete the handover. The absolute strength of the two teams is not as strong as that of the American team, but they have made great efforts in the technology of handing over the baton.
The Jamaica team fell to the back at this moment, almost the same as the Chinese team Japan team.
Usain Bolt’s absolute strength is very strong, but his handover with Nesta Carter is not too perfect, the huge advantage brought by speed does not make up for the technical rough.
Between a hesitation, 0.1 seconds, 0.5 seconds, or even 1 second will pass.
The third best player is running fast on the corner, but it is only a distance of more than 80 meters, which is almost instantaneous.
The fiery atmosphere in the auditorium has reached the climax since the start of the World Championships. The huge noise came from the Nagai Stadium and could even be faintly heard from a few miles away.
Wen Yongyi gritted his teeth tightly, and he saw Su Zu on the curve.
The ninth lane, the one on the edge. It was almost next to the billboard. Outside the billboard, many reporters with cameras of different lengths seemed to be able to touch Su Zu as soon as they reached out.
“A little bit, a little bit!”
Wen Yongyi felt that his legs had reached the limit of his body, as if his whole body was like a classic car that was racing at a high speed.
But at this point, it doesn’t matter.
He held the baton firmly in his hand, and now he just wanted to hand over the baton in his hand.
For this goal, even if he really tears and strains his muscles after running, he can’t control it.
Bends into straight.
The last three or four handovers.
At this time, Tyson Gay, the fastest third rod, has appeared in the relay area. With the advantages accumulated in the previous three rods and his personal super strength, the US team is at this time. The lead is very clear.
Tyson Gay even nudged Leroy Dixon on the fourth bat just as he finished handing over the baton, as if to say, man, you gotta Run faster.
The British team and the Brazilian team are the next to complete the handover. The two teams have always been veteran relay teams, relying on the relatively average strength and tacit cooperation of the players.
And then…Japan and Jamaica…
Jamaica’s 1st, 2nd, and 3rd sticks are very good, but the coordination of the handover sticks is not perfect, and a lot of time is wasted on the handover sticks.
When Nesta Carter handed the baton to Powell, the Japanese team had already completed the handover, and the fourth-ranked Asahara Xuanzhi came out of the corner and ran away.
At this moment, Su Zucai got the baton in Wen Yongyi’s voice almost shouting “Take it!”
In an instant, almost all of the Chinese audience at the scene and in front of the TV stood up, whether in the seats at the scene or on the soft sofa at home.
I stared at the screen without blinking, staring at the scene.
The moment Su Zu felt the baton fall in his hand, he could clearly feel that his body seemed to be in slow motion. step forward.
In the noisy scene, all the players seemed to slow down. He glanced at the position where he was about to enter the straight in the ninth lane, and he had already seen the disadvantage he was in.
He didn’t have time to think where he was, but it was clear now that he was behind.
Leroy Dixon, the fastest fourth player of the U.S. team, has led by more than ten meters. For a sprint of more than 100 meters, this is almost a desperate distance.
Anyone who sees such a gap will hardly have the idea of catching up.
Two or three meters behind Leroy Dixon are Mark Lewis Francis of England and Sandro Viana of Brazil.
Then Japan’s Asahara, and Jamaican fourth Asafa Powell.
But Su Zu knew about this result early on.
The top three sticks of the Chinese team, Su Bingtianzhang, Pei Meng and Wen Yongyi, have already run out of extreme speed. Even, they may not be weaker than the top three in this group in 2004. Chen Jian, Yang Guangzong and Shen Yunbao at the Olympic Games.
Only the Chinese team is improving, and the relay teams of other countries are also improving.
In this World Championships, the strength of the US team has been fully exerted, while the other British and Brazilian teams have the same lead as the 2004 Olympic Games.
The waist is the center, the hips are the engine, the legs are the wheels, and the arms are the balance and steering.
Every step, Su Zu can clearly feel the full contact between the soles of the feet and the ground, and then brings a more powerful forward force.
One step, two steps, three steps…
The sound that can break the roof of the arena is between the electric light and flint, and it comes back all at once.
And a few steps after receiving the baton, Su Zu also began to enter the end of the acceleration phase.
The body straightened naturally, and the absolute speed reached the highest value.
In an instant, the atmosphere reached the top.
At this time, the two figures on the field attracted everyone’s attention. Even the many spectators who came to cheer for the Japanese team couldn’t help but look away from Xuanzhi Chaohara at this moment.
Asafa Powell of the fifth lane started to accelerate frantically from a position behind Xuanji Asahara, chasing Mark Lewis Francis of England and Sandro of Brazil step by step in front of him viana.
Suzu was in a position further back than Powell, and the start of the family accelerated in an instant, surpassing Orusoki Fasuba who took over before him, followed by fast again To surpass Asahara Xuanzhi.
On the field, it was almost a yellow and a red figure running wildly.
The absolute sense of speed from backward to surpassing is almost amazing.
Everyone in the audience or in front of the TV felt their bodies trembling slightly. The impact of the absolute sense of speed made many people feel a sudden increase in adrenalin at this moment.
“…Su Zu successfully took the baton, Su Zu was chasing, and Powell in front of him was also accelerating frantically at this moment, and the two were surpassing step by step…Su Zu, Su Zu, come on! Come on! …”
Sitting in the media area, responsible for explaining that Yang Jian could no longer sit in his seat at this moment, but stood up abruptly with a headset, his eyes widened and he roared hysterically.
In the last 30 meters, Powell and Su Zu had a fifth and a ninth track, chasing frantically inside and out. The spectacle of the scene almost made all the other players lose their color.
Mark Lewis Francis and Sandro Viana twitched violently because of their excessive force. The two who were already ahead suddenly found two figures in the last 30 meters , one after another suddenly approached himself.
The overwhelming sense of oppression is almost suffocating.
Twenty meters…
Powell passed Sandro Viana and was tied with Mark Lewis Francis in second place. And Suzu was at this time to catch up with Brazil’s fourth team Sandro Viana.
Ten meters…
Powell passed Mark Lewis Francis, who is still racing to get past Leroy Dixon of Team USA.
At this moment, Su Zu was one position behind Mark Lewis Francis and two positions away from Powell.
Five meters, four meters, three meters…
Cross the line!
The audience is boiling!
Leroy Dixon of Team USA crossed the finish line first, followed by Powell, Suzu and Mark Lewis Francis…
Because the players finally crossed the finish line too fast, the naked eye could only tell that the fourth pole of the US team was leading by a slight advantage.
The second, third, and fourth places in the back almost all happened at the same time.
Above the scene, Leroy Dixon, the fourth stick of the US team, has already started to run and cheer, blowing kisses to the audience and the camera aimed at him.
The Jamaica team, the Chinese team, the British team, and even the slightly behind Brazil team were all nervously staring at the big screen.
“…The U.S. team won the men’s 4×100-meter relay race, and now the scene is nervously waiting for the results of other teams to appear.
At the moment of the final crossing, the distance between the runners is so close that it is almost impossible to tell who has crossed the finish line first with the naked eye! “
The tick-tock time seems to pass minute by minute.
Su Zu stood in front of the finish line and let out a long breath. In the fifth pass not far from him, the situation between Asafa Powell and Su Zu was similar. , both of them are looking up at the results on the big screen at the scene.
It seems that dozens of seconds have passed, and several minutes have passed, and the lively cheers sounded one after another.
The host Japanese team is the sixth to cross the finish line, and the position is very clear. Although they failed to get the medal, the audience at the scene at the moment have been stunned by the performance of Powell and Suzu in the fourth final. conquer.
Don’t be shy to give both teams a round of applause for the fourth stick.
Finally, the slow motion on the big screen of the players’ last crossing of the line reappeared, followed by the results of the eight relay teams on the big screen:
1. The sixth lane, the American team, scored 37.78 seconds;
2. The fifth track, Jamaica, scored 37.88 seconds;
3. The ninth road, the Chinese team, scored 37.89 seconds;
4. The fourth lane, the British team, scored 37.90 seconds;
5. The seventh track, Brazil, scored 37.99 seconds;
6. The third track, the Japanese team, scored 38.03 seconds;
7. The eighth track, Nigeria team, scored 38.15 seconds;
8. The second course, the German team, scored 38.62 seconds;
“…The third place! The Chinese team got a bronze medal!”
After the results appeared on the big screen, Yang Jian’s voice sounded at the same time.
“Suzu surpassed Brazil and the United Kingdom at the last minute and won the third place! The United States won the gold medal in the men’s 4 x 100m relay, while Powell and Suzu were in The amazing performance of the fourth bar is indescribable! Powell crossed the finish line ahead of Suzu, Jamaica was the runner-up, and the Chinese team was the third!
Fantastic game, the performance of the Chinese team’s boys is too unexpected! Facing the strong relay teams such as the United States, Jamaica, and the United Kingdom, the Chinese team once again created an Asian record, refreshed the best result, and won a hard-won bronze medal…”
