Chapter 167 The King of Athletics Top 10 Achievements in History

Entering the straight, Variner entered his first dominant area. His strides are getting bigger and his speed is going up a level. At this time, it can be clearly seen that the distance between him and De Qiong on the fifth road is getting smaller and smaller, but the frequency of steps is similar to that of De Qiong.

Of the two athletes, Wariner is 1.83 meters tall, and Dejong is 1.87 meters tall. In terms of leg length, Dejong has an advantage. It stands to reason that if the two have the same pace frequency, Dejong should Faster, but now Variner is faster than Dejon, which shows that Variner's pace is more than a star and a half larger than Dejon.

"Zhang Guan's speed is about the same as mine in the starting stage, but his speed in the final sprint is almost comparable to that of an ordinary 200-meter sprinter, but his speed is slower than mine in the 100-300-meter range. If I want to To defeat Zhang Guan, one must accumulate enough advantages at the distance from 100 meters to 300 meters. I think Zhang Guan is almost 0.8 seconds behind me in this straight distance! After a while, I will enter the corner and then lead He has 0.8 seconds, such an advantage of more than 1.5 seconds, I don't believe he can finally come back!" While thinking, Variner began to adjust and prepare to enter the next corner.

Variner likes to speed up running after entering the second corner. His cornering technique can be said to be the best in the world, so he must be more able to perform the same high-speed running in the corner as other athletes. Advantage.

Finally, Variner entered the second corner, and at the same time, he also used the arc of the corner to observe Zhang Guan. He wanted to see how far Zhang Guan was behind, and estimated the time when he was leading.

However, when Wariner looked behind him to the left, what he saw was Zhang Guanzheng preparing to enter the corner.

...

Coach Hart is constantly analyzing various possibilities in his mind.

"Why does Zhang Guan use this running method? He must know that it will consume more energy, and his energy distribution will encounter problems in the second half. Could it be that he is going to give up the 400-meter race?" Coach Hart himself shook his head, dismissing the idea.

"If he gave up the 400-meter race, he might as well run in the same way as in the last race, and keep running at the same frequency, so that he can retain more energy. However, he did not do this. He tried after entering the straight Changing his running style, his strides have become larger, which means that his speed has become faster. Could it be said that Zhang Guan still decided to fight for the 400-meter sprint champion!"

Coach Hart's face became more serious. World-class athletes will not easily change their technical characteristics, and once they take the initiative to change, it means that the new technology will inevitably run faster and jump higher. , thrown further...

"Last month, Zhang Guan didn't run like this. Could it be that Zhang Guan has changed his running method in just one month? The time is wrong! It's already July, and no one will change his technique at this time Yes!" Hart frowned.

Generally, track and field athletes change their skills in winter. There are no track and field competitions in this season. Athletes start to change old skills and try new ones. In May and June, various track and field events start. , Athletes will test the new technology during the competition and constantly improve it. By July and August, the new technology will gradually mature. This is also a period when athletes are more likely to achieve good results. Many world records in track and field appeared in this period.

In addition, some athletes will also choose to change their skills during the recovery period of injuries, and most of them are forced to change their skills to avoid re-injury. In this case, it is good to ensure that the performance does not drop.

Now that it has entered July, there are still more than two months left for the various track and field competitions throughout the year. It is impossible for athletes to change their skills at this juncture. The schedule is so tight and the competition is so fierce, if athletes change their skills at this point in time, it is easy to cause the new technology to be useless and the old technology to be used poorly, which will affect the performance instead.

...

When Coach Hart was puzzled, Variner's face froze.

"I don't seem to have taken the lead!" Variner made the most accurate judgment with just one glance. Based on his experience, he can judge the pros and cons at any point on the track, and there is no need to go to the end straight runway.

"What's the matter? Zhang Guan changed his running method? He accelerated on the straight track just now?" Variner also entered the corner area with a trace of doubt, and he began to accelerate.

The rapid acceleration after entering the corner from the straight is the technical characteristic of Variner. For him, running corners is also a very handy thing, because his cornering skills are also the best in the world.

In the corner, although Variner's steps became smaller, the frequency of his steps became much faster, so his speed did not drop because of this. And when he slowed down a little and started to adjust, he was already in the leading position.

Variner feels that the game has entered his own rhythm, and then he will start to sprint on the final straight, and then beat other athletes with a strong follow-up sprint ability.

At this time, the Frenchman Dejong also slowly caught up with Variner, and when the two were about to enter the final straight track, they were in a state of being neck and neck.

Dejun's running method is quite special. His first 100 meters is not very fast, and the second 100 meters will be accelerated, but it is not the kind of hard speed, and the fastest stage of his running is the first 100 meters. Three 100 meters, which also shows that his corner running skills are good. Among the top athletes in the world, there are very few who run the third 100 meters faster than the second 100 meters, and DeJong is one of them.

"Dejon's final sprint ability is not weak. Although it is not as good as mine, it can still pose a threat to me. I have to speed up!" Variner has already started to accelerate at this time, making the final sprint.

And at this moment, Variner heard Coach Hart shout: "Jeremy, do your best, do your best, Zhang is going to catch up!"

Wariner's heart tightened again, he remembered the last contest in the Golden League, Zhang Guan surpassed himself at the last moment.

"Zhang Guan's speed seems to be faster than last time. Has he improved? I have to do my best and never give Zhang Guan a chance!" Variner glanced at Zhang Guan's position secretly, and The pace under his feet also truly reflects his thoughts.

Compared with the last race, Zhang Guan's level has indeed improved, and his performance in corners is even better than last month. This is the case with sports. Beginners' progress is always obvious, and they may be able to make obvious progress in a month, while those experienced athletes seem to be at the same level after practicing for a year and a half.

Variner was ahead of Dejon and entered the final straight runway first, and Dejon was not to be outdone, he began to accelerate, ready to challenge Variner. Dejong once ran seventh in the 400-meter final of the Athens Olympics. He is the first person in Europe in the 400-meter race. Although he is not as good as Variner, he definitely has the strength to challenge Variner.

However, today DeJong encountered a Variner who was ready to do his best, so at the beginning of the sprint, DeJong fell behind. And at this moment, Zhang Guan also started to sprint.

Zhang Guan once again showed a speed that does not belong to 400 meters, and the audience in the audience also cooperated very much. First, there was a sound of surprise, and then there was a shout like a mountain roar and a tsunami.

Wariner watched the video of the last Golden League game in Oslo hundreds of times. He clearly remembered that when Zhang Guan started to accelerate, the audience let out a cry of surprise, followed by violent shouts. Reina also thought the audience was cheering for him. This time in Paris, Varina once again heard the reaction of the audience. He knew that the cheers were not for himself, but for Zhang Guan.

"The final contest is about to begin! I will not lose again!" Varina's expression became more serious, and the eyes under the sunglasses also exuded a strong fighting spirit and determination to win.

Zhang Guan, who was behind, caught up with the Frenchman De Jong, and then surpassed in an instant.

"Why so fast! This is the speed of a 200-meter athlete!" Although De Qiong has watched the video of the Oslo race, he knows that Zhang Guan can perform at a speed not weaker than the 200-meter sprint in the final sprint, but at the same time Encountered this real situation in the arena, DeJong still couldn't help being surprised.

...

"Zhang Guan started to accelerate, the speed is so fast! Far faster than the speed of others! He surpassed Dejun and is catching up with Wariner! We must catch up! We will catch up soon!" Although the voice of the on-site commentary was very loud , but was covered by the shouts of the audience. At this time, the audience stood up and stared at the final straight track with wide eyes. This short few seconds will be the most exciting moment of the whole game .

As Zhang Guan surpassed De Qiong, the cheering sound in the arena became louder, and this louder cheering sound was like a reminder to Wariner's ears, letting him know that Zhang Guan was getting better and better. closer.

"My speed has reached the limit, and there is not much physical strength left, but the finish line is in front of me... Wait a minute, it's not time to relax my vigilance, as long as I haven't crossed the finish line, I can't relax my vigilance. In the last game, It was because I relaxed my vigilance at the last moment that I lost the game!" Variner once again thought of the last failure, and with the lessons learned from the past, he did not relax.

"There are still ten meters to the finish line! Come on, keep it up!" Variner couldn't help cheering for himself, and at this moment, there was a figure on his left side by side with him.

"It's Zhang Guan! He's catching up!" This scene was so familiar to Wariner, Zhang Guan was catching up to him in the last ten meters, as if it was a repeat of the last Oslo station.

The two crossed the line at the same time again, but in fact, Zhang Guan was faster than Variner. Then, the two crossed the finish line.

"Same as the last game, I lost again, at the last moment! I was overtaken by Zhang Guan again in the last five meters!" This repeat of history made Wariner clearly feel that the game The result was the same as last time in Oslo, and I lost again at the last moment! Perhaps lost in the last 0.1 seconds.

"I must have run within 44 seconds this time, but I still lost to Zhang Guan! The previous 43.99 seconds was not the limit of Zhang Guan, and I still underestimated him!" Variner cast his eyes on the scoreboard, he Want to know the final score. .

Variner's final score was 43.82 seconds, which was his personal best in the competition. This score is enough to rank among the top 20 in the history of the 400-meter sprint.

But this result is not enough for Varina to win, because Zhang Guan is faster than him!

Zhang Guan's score was 43.67 seconds!

It was the tenth-best result ever achieved in the 400-meter dash.
