Run Out of My Life

Chapter 352: King of 100 meters

"...Okay, viewers, I will present you the most heavyweight competition of this World Championship, the men's 100-meter trapeze. The eight finalists have already stood on the starting line. .

The second is Madik Osovnikal from Slovenia, the only white player in the men's 100m final of the World Championships; Fasuba, Jamaican star Asafa Powell in the fourth, Suzu in the fifth, Tyson Gay in the sixth, Derek Atkins in the Bahamas in the seventh, Kuranti in the eighth Martina, 9th Marlon Devnish…”

The audience in front of the big screen and TV of Nagai Stadium introduced the eight players who participated in the men's 100m final one by one with the camera screen.

Among them, the camera stayed the longest and gave the most shots when it passed the three people of Powell, Suzu and Tyson Gay in the middle pass.

As the most important game of this tournament, there is no doubt that this game is the focus of the world's attention.

This is also the second time that Suzu, Powell and Guy have run 100 meters on the same starting line since the IAAF Finals last year.

Who is the fastest man in the world today, we will know at first sight in this race.

“Onyourmarks!”

When the starter's voice sounded, the loud noise of the audience suddenly fell silent.

Through the live big screen and the TV camera broadcast in front of the TV, it can be clearly seen that Asafa Powell, wearing a yellow sprint suit, took the lead in moving, and with a calm expression, surging It is the strong desire and dedication to the championship for the game.

Tyson Gay in the white sprint suit raised his head slightly, took a sip of mineral water and threw the water bottle on the track behind him. Every piece of the strong and powerful muscles seemed to be beating, and there was an indescribable sense of strength that was about to burst forth.

Derek Atkins in the light blue sprint suit, this year's fastest rising Bahamian athlete, was in the flash of the camera, biting tightly Gritting his teeth, he took a few deep breaths.

Su Zu lightly clenched his fist in place, his muscles suddenly contracted, and then gradually relaxed, shrugged, jumped slightly, and slowly followed to the start device.

A red sprint suit, as bright as ever. Standing among the many players, outstanding and eye-catching.

Su Zu walked to the running aid in front of the starting line, pressing his hands on the orange rough track, constantly mobilizing the excitement of his body, adjusting his breathing, and staying focused.

The angle of both feet on the starting block is adjusted gently, the distance between the fingers and the starting line, the vertical angle of the arm, everything is adjusted with the most perfect and comfortable movement in the natural memory of the body.

On both sides of Suzu, Powell in the fourth channel has been breathing and exhaling, and his slightly trembling body is not caused by the tension of the owner of the body, but excitement.

For this match, for this moment, he has waited too long.

From this year's poor state, to returning to Jamaica Mountain Village to find his crux from his enlightenment coach, he, Asafa Powell has stood on the starting line again.

Benz.

At this moment, Asafa Powell is like a sports car whose engine has warmed up enough on the spot, the engine is roaring frantically, just waiting for him to release the brake after hearing the gunshot, frantically Hit the gas pedal.

He will play the fastest and most amazing speed.

It was Tyson Gay on the right side of Su Zu, standing on the runway with his hands raised high, his index fingers stretched out, and the first signature move.

His body remained tense, but calm. This is his ideal state of the game!

Compared to Asafa Powell and Justin Gatlin's two peers, Tyson Gay step by step to this position today is more difficult than them.

The three were born in 1982, but in 2002 and 03, Powell and Gatlin had begun to show their prominence in the sports world, and in 2004 and 05, one of them was the Olympic Games Champion, one is the world record holder.

And he, Tyson Gay, had just left school that year to consider a career.

And compared to Gatlin and Powell at that time, his performance in the 200m or 100m was far worse.

But it doesn't matter, the peak of his career, although a few years late, is still catching up.

From last year, 2006, the world track has his place.

Like Powell's early fame, the lack of ability to withstand the pressure of the competition is different. Tyson Gay has emerged from the fiercest American sprint competition in the world.

Whether it is the NCAA game or the professional field game after that, he will encounter countless challenges in every game. Even during Gatlin's suspension, he still has a lot of competition from strong opponents such as Leonard Scott, Sean Crawford, Wallace Spearmont and so on.

In the sprint, he is not the kind of Powell who has few challengers in Jamaica, but every step is difficult. In the 2004 Olympic trials, because of his lack of experience and preparation, he missed a great opportunity. In this year's World Championships trials, he also needs to work hard for a place.

He wants to win, he promised his daughter that he must win the championship, so here he is!

The sounds around her seemed to gradually become quieter. After Su Zu looked up at the runway, he only felt that all the sounds were completely silent. It seemed that everyone around him disappeared at this moment. , thin and long.

The world is dark, only a light is shining on you.

"SET!"

A voice seemed to come from outside.

Su Zu hardly used his brain to think, and his body naturally changed from a squat to a half-squat starting position.

The moment the explosion comes!

Pop!

A crisp gunshot rang out.

Su Zu only felt that the dark world in front of him was suddenly torn apart by this gunshot, the darkness faded in an instant, and the beam of light that fell on him began to radiate out, illuminating him The runway ahead illuminates the finish line ahead.

It is followed by the surrounding track, the stadium, the auditorium, and the endless world in the distance.

At the same time as the gunshot, Su Zu suddenly exerted force on his legs on the starting block, and his front and rear arms were swung high. A momentary still shot, from the power foot on the starting block, to the high lift of the front foot, the hands and arms present a perfect angle in front and back, full of the beauty of an indescribable explosion of power.

The loud noise of cheers came back again, and the eight players on the starting line were already running frantically at the moment when the gunshots sounded.

One step, two steps, three steps…

There was no warning at the start reaction timing next to the starting line, the referee's whistle never sounded, the game started perfectly, and no one rushed!

And the eight players who had already started to accelerate on the field, as long as the gunshots sounded, they completely ignored and ran in their best state.

Stop running is a common situation in the competition, but it is impossible to pay special attention to each start because someone rushes to run.

Only a gunshot, then rush forward!

Ten meters, twenty meters…

In the stage of starting acceleration, the fastest starting reaction and starting acceleration is... Asafa Powell.

In terms of competition experience and technical perfection, of course Asafa Powell is not allowed to be an athlete with the current textbook of world sprinters.

His start is big, fast and powerful.

Compared to Tyson Gay's pendulum-style acceleration, Powell's linear leap was faster. Just ten meters ahead, he grabbed the first position of eight players.

Followed by Su Zu, Su Zu changed the rhythm and running style, from the beginning of the similar running style of Carl Lewis and Justin Gatlin, to the seven or eight this year The change of the month, in terms of starting acceleration, has been close to Powell.

It is also a straight start and leap forward, the soles of the feet are fully in contact with the ground, so that their legs get more sufficient reaction force, and the stride and cadence are faster.

The difference is that Suzu's feet are slightly higher than Powell's. Powell starts off because the soles of his feet are in full contact with the ground, but it takes a long time, so he is relatively The important ground, especially the first step, is almost touching the ground and starting to face forward.

Su Zu has a higher kicking angle and also has full contact with the ground, so he spends more time in the air than Powell in the process of exchanging his feet from left to right.

The distance of ten meters and twenty meters will take longer than Powell, and the speed will be slower.

But this is not a problem, Su Zu's improved stride and movements are suitable for him, not copying Powell's set. Because this made him sacrifice a certain amount of starting acceleration, but as the speed gets faster and faster, he will get more sufficient acceleration, and when he enters the mid-run, he will have a faster mid-run speed.

Tyson Gay, who was not good at starting, has also greatly improved his starting response and starting acceleration after learning from Jon Drummond this season. .

Although it is a little slower than Powell and Su Zu, the left and right pendulum-style pedaling acceleration, although to a certain extent, makes the body do more work and sacrifices speed, but for Tyson · For Guy, this is the most suitable way to accelerate from the start.

Tyson Gay is one of the top 200-meter runners. His good speed retention ability is in running 100 meters. What he needs most is to be able to enter the highest speed stage as soon as possible, and then With his ability to maintain speed, he completed the lore against other players in the middle and second half.

Only 20 meters away, the top three players in the world have surpassed other players, which is a manifestation of absolute strength.

Among the eight players present, except for Suzu, Powell, and Guy, there are not only three who can run into the 10-second mark, Orusoki Fasuba, Derek · Atkins and Curanti Martina, have this strength.

But they can run into the 10-second mark, and there is still a clear gap between the top three's strength within 9.90 or even 9.80.

Among them, Derek Atkins is very strong and in good shape, but he is not known for his quick start. In the face of the three, he is still a bit weaker.

At 30 meters, Powell and Su Zu have already stood out and ran out of a certain advantage.

Powell's movements are perfect and the speed is extremely fast, and next to him, the gap between Su Zu and him is not big. .

But Powell still looked ahead, his goal was only the finish line, it seemed that he was the only one running at this moment, and he didn't pay any attention to the others around him.

He has done psychological construction for himself over and over again, running in competitions as if he is running alone, and never observing other tracks. In one go, run straight to the finish line.

He was like that in the semi-finals and he was like that in the finals.

Suzu's state is almost similar to Powell's. He doesn't look around, accelerates frantically, and doesn't care about the positions of Powell and Tyson Gay. He believes that running to the end, the first The one to cross the finish line must be himself.

This is the confidence established by victories over and over again, and it is also the confidence that you can make breakthroughs after you change.

Competing with the world's top speed masters like Powell and Guy, he can't tolerate a little distraction.

There is a program in the United States in later generations. The legendary airman "Forrest Gump" Michael Johnson explained that many runners in some 100-meter races are very strong. The starting and the first half are perfect, but in the middle and second half Cheng was surpassed.

A very important reason is that I am distracted during the game. Too much attention is paid to the positions and passes of other players, which affects my running rhythm and even my psychological state.

Like last month's Golden League match between Powell and Suzu in Rome, Powell had taken the lead in the first half, but when Suzu came behind to chase him, Powell's eyes widened When Guang noticed Su Zu's position, he felt a little out of balance in an instant.

Su Zu brought him too much pressure. In the 2006 Golden League six rounds, Su Zu defeated him. In the face of Su Zu suddenly catching up, he has maintained I can't help my mentality, so that my movements are deformed in the middle and second half.

In the arm swing, the angle is large, the power is fast, and the five fingers are open. In the slow motion after the game, many people noticed that Powell was being chased by Su Zu. The shoulders became stiff, and the five fingers clenched fists tightly, so the speed of the whole person slowed down, and was finally surpassed by Su Zu.

It was after that game that Powell returned to Jamaica under the advice of his agent to find his lost original running heart.

Of course, this is not the case with the Jamaican Lightning's Mochizuki at the peak of later generations. If he has no opponents, he will be a crushing victory.

In this World Championship, this situation did not happen again.

Powell has treated this game as if he were running in a tunnel.

There is no opponent, from start to finish, just running on your own.

This is also the state, so that when Powell was approached by Su Zu again, he was not disturbed as before, and still maintained his own rhythm.

Forty meters, fifty meters…

On the field, the athletes' running movements are soaring, fast arm swings and strides, whether on the scene, on the big screen or on the TV screen, you can almost only see the same movement frequency as afterimages .

The overwhelming cheers came from all directions, and the waves were like waves, setting off one peak after another!

Powell still ran in the first position, but the gap between him and Su Zu was getting smaller and smaller, and the two were almost completely neck and neck. To the naked eye, it was completely indistinguishable, and it was a peak duel on a horizontal line.

After the two, Tyson Gay gradually entered the state from 40 meters behind, the speed became faster and faster, and the gap between the two was getting closer and closer.

Behind the three is Derek Atkins of the Bahamas, running in a light blue tracksuit, like a wave madly crowded out in the sea, chasing with all his strength The three people running in front of him.

With their super strength, the four gradually joined forces with the second Madik Osovnikal, the third Orusoki Fasuba, and the eighth Kuranti Ma Tina, ninth lane Marlon Devnish opened a clear gap.

On Su Zu's face and neck, thick blue blood vessels and meridians emerged, and pieces of muscles that were usually hidden under the skin, two eyebrows were wrinkled together, forming a deep Sichuan character between the eyebrows, This is the subconscious reaction of the body when its power explodes to its extreme state.

Powell's eyes were also wide open, his cheeks were bulging high because of the clenched teeth, and the movement of his arms was almost invisible.

Tyson Gay looked ferocious, his chest seemed to have a breath, and it was constantly expanding, as if it was about to explode, so that his dark face was distorted.

body load.

From 50 meters to 60 meters, the 100-meter runners entered the highest speed stage in the middle of the run. After the body was accelerated and the body was leaning forward, it had naturally lifted up, and the waist was straight. Straight, with each step of the feet, only half of the soles of the feet are lightly tapped on the ground, and then they move forward quickly.

At this time, Su Zu started to be on the same level with Powell from about 30 meters, and when it was about 60 meters, Su Zu began to run the highest speed on the way with the advantage of absolute speed At this stage, there is a slight gap with Powell.

This is the intuitive result of Su Zu's eight-month change in rhythm. For the same 100 meters, he has shortened the distance by nearly three steps than before. At this stage, whether it is stride length or stride frequency , have reached a new state of perfect fit.

Compared to Powell's slight disadvantage after the start, slowly make up for it after speeding up, and run to surpass it on the way.

Su Zu is ahead!

Outside the arena, the sharp-eyed Li Zhizhong tightened his muscles almost instantly, and Zhang Pingqiu, who was beside Li Zhizhong, even shouted at this moment: "Su Zu, come on!"

This roar could not cause any storms in the stadium, which was as noisy as waves, but soon, other spectators also shouted.

Among the nearly 50,000 spectators in Yongjing Stadium, there are thousands of Chinese spectators, and at this time, they shouted "Suzu, come on!" The sound is no longer a small wave, but a sound wave that can be set off by a hurricane.

Seventy meters, eighty meters…

The stage of running at the highest speed on the way has passed, and the speed of the runners begins to show a downward curve. Although the decline is very slight, it is indeed declining.

It's just that the audience, whether on the scene or in front of the TV, can hardly feel it.

The illusion of running faster. It is thought that all athletes are accelerating from the start all the way to the finish line.

But in fact, everyone is a speed curve, starting from zero at the start, reaching the peak of speed at the stage of fifty or sixty meters, and then showing varying degrees of decline.

At this time, it is the ability of the player to maintain the speed!

At the peak of 50 meters to 60 meters, Su Zu can already reach the point where he can run in 0.80-0.81 seconds, and at the stage of 60 meters to 70 meters, he has dropped to 0.81-0.83 seconds At the point of 80 meters to 90 meters, the speed will decline!

Similarly, Powell and Tyson Gay are also slowing down.

Compared to Powell, Tyson Gay, who is both very good in both the 200m and 400m, has an excellent speed retention ability.

At this stage of 70 meters and 80 meters, Powell, who had been ahead by a long position, began to be gradually approached by Tyson Gay, and gradually pulled to a horizontal position.

Su Zu can't estimate the people around him at this moment, he only has the end in his eyes.

He changed the rhythm and stride, and now he is gradually adapting to the new state, but it is not his ultimate limit, he thinks he can run faster, just give him more time to adapt Sexual running, to carve a more perfect technique.

However, at this time, all he has to consider is the end point!

The sound of footsteps around you was like a rainstorm hitting the roof tiles, even the noisy scene could not be covered.

Su Zu didn't think about whether he was ahead, maybe he was ahead by one position, two positions, or it was simply an illusion that his opponent was always on a horizontal line beside him.

He didn't have time to think about it, he could only sprint with all his strength!

In the 100-meter race, no matter whether it is the starting reaction, the starting acceleration, the running on the way, or even the final sprint now, none of it is unimportant.

Any mistake in detail may make the advantage that you have accumulated in front of dozens of meters fall short in the end.

At this time, even if he just breathes a sigh of relief, he will basically only end up being surpassed by the two.

Firmly grasp the advantages that you have spelled out, and strive to cross the finish line!

The speed endurance of sub-altitude training for two consecutive years has made his speed retention ability not weaker than Tyson Gay, or even surpassed.

This year's 200m best result, Tyson Gay has several very eye-catching results, but the best one is still Su Zu's 19.48 in the Osaka Grand Prix .

Ninety meters…

All the audience in the audience could not help standing up, all of them sticking out their necks like geese, and their eyes were projected on the final finish line.

Who?

Who will be the champion?

With the naked eye, the various angles of the auditorium and the live camera are almost indistinguishable.

Su Zu has a leading advantage, but this advantage is not obvious, especially the speed of lightning and flint, almost in the blink of an eye, everyone can't see clearly!

"Ah-"

In the last ten meters, Su Zu squeezed out almost all the potential and strength of his body, and the moment he finally crossed the line, he roared uncontrollably!

On both sides of Su Zu, two shouts that also exploded from his chest to his throat sounded at the same time.

That's Tyson Gay and Asafa Powell!

In this game, the three of you can say that they have exhausted all their strength to run, just to compete for the final championship!

On-site commentator Yang Jian's voice has been raised to the highest level at this moment. The live TV's position as a game commentator and years of game commentary experience allow him to understand the strengths and weaknesses of all players better than the average audience.

From the moment the gunshots rang out, Yang Jian's voice crackled like a machine gun and never stopped: "...The game begins! Su Zu's start is very strong... Powell is first, Su Zu, Su Zu caught up with Powell, Su Zu ran to the first position, Su Zu! Su Zu! Su Zu... cross the line! Su Zu won! Su Zu won!!"

In front of the TV and even in front of the commentary in the live media area, everyone was startled by Yang Jian’s so much excitement that his throat was almost torn apart.

But at this time, no one paid attention to Yang Jian's commentary, and everyone's eyes were firmly locked on the three players who crossed the finish line in an instant!

The electronic stopwatch on the big screen and in front of the TV synchronizing with the running of the players has already jumped out of the results of this group of players!

9 seconds 70! !

"Su Zu won! 9 seconds 70! Red lightning! Su Zu has set a new world record! Su Zu won the final championship in this peak match, surpassing his own creation World record! New world record! Our new 100m dash world record!"

At the moment when Su Zu ran across the finish line, he had noticed the score of 9 seconds 70 on the live timing board!

He was the first to cross the finish line!

The applause was thunderous, and the scene was full of cheers!

Su Zu raised his head and could see the five-star red flag fluttering in the auditorium near the finish line. Many spectators who came to watch his game from far away were almost too excited at this time. suppress.

After crossing the finish line, Su Zu hardly stopped, and started running around the track.

Raise your hands high and greet the overwhelming cheers and applause from the audience!

"Suzu, the world's number one!"

"Suzu, come on!!"

At the moment when Su Zu was cheering around the field to greet the applause, the timing board next to the live track and the results that had appeared on the big screen suddenly jumped.

Yang Jian reacted almost immediately and explained to many domestic audiences through the microphone with great excitement:

"...Wait, not 9 seconds 70, but 9 seconds 69! The live electronic timer corrected the game time! 9 seconds 69, in the case of the wind speed of minus 0.5 m/s, Su Zu Created a jaw-dropping result! Su Zu ran into the 9.70 mark, becoming the only player in the world to run 9.70!"

"The king of 100 meters, Su Zu is the king of 100 meters!"

At this time, the results of the contestants on the big screen were all played out one by one, and the eight contestants who ran across the finish line raised their heads at the same time.

Powell stood in the middle of the crowd, gasping for breath, Tyson Gay put his hands on his knees, and both of them turned sideways and looked up at the big screen.

The score on the time card has appeared, they can vaguely feel that Su Zu is one point faster than them, and the score on the time card may not belong to them.

However, as long as the big screen results are ranked, both of them still have one point of expectation.

Even if the result is not, but at this moment, they can't wait to know their results, especially Tyson Gay and Powell, who almost hit the line at the same time.

Three people, there will always be first, second and third.

A row of English and numbers appears on the large live screen and on the floating window of the TV screen:

1. Fifth Road, Su Zu, China, reaction 0.143, score 9 seconds 689;

2. Sixth Road, Tyson Guy, United States, reaction 0.146, score 9 seconds 712;

3. Fifth course, Asafa Powell, Jamaica, reaction 0.139, score 9 seconds 718;

4. Seventh Road, Derek Atkins, Bahamas, reaction 0.151, score 9 seconds 91;

5. The third course, Orusoki Fasuba, Nigeria, reaction 0.157, score 10 seconds 07;

6. Eighth course, Curanti Martina, Netherlands Antilles, reaction 0.168, score 10 seconds 08;

7. The ninth course, Marlon Devenish, England, reaction 0.152, score 10 seconds 14;

8. Second course, Madik Osovnikal, Slovenia, reaction 0.163, score 10 seconds 23;

"Unbelievable, we can't imagine if there is no wind speed in this game, Su Zu's performance will be able to go to another level, but the three top players in the world today are in this game. The results that broke out in the competition are unprecedented in the history of track and field. The three people's results are so close, any one person's mistakes in the competition may cause the results to be very different... We have Reasons to believe that this is a new era in the history of track and field, an era of the peak of men's sprinting, and the leader of this era is fortunately our yellow-skinned, dark-eyed Chinese in red sportswear..."

On-site commentary Yang Jian watched the results on the big screen over and over again, although he was already a little used to Su Zu's many world records, but really in the world championships like this Running such a result in the big stadium still makes him feel uncomfortable.

"...The audience in front of the TV, Su Zu has already won the gold medal in the heaviest men's 100m at the World Championships, and on August 27th the day after tomorrow, the men's 200m will be held soon Begin. We look forward to Suzu replicating the myth of the double champion he once created in 2005..."
