Warina was shocked: "It's Zhang Guan! He's catching up! Oops, the end is ahead!"
There were less than five meters left from the finish line. This sudden change suddenly caught Warina off guard. Warina didn't care to think about how Zhang Guan caught up. He quickly made a move to cross the line. At that moment, he couldn't help but glance sideways at Zhang Guan's position.
Zhang Guan was also crossing the line, but Warina felt that Zhang Guan was much faster than him. At this moment, Warina felt a shadow in his heart, and he felt that he might lose the game.
In a 400-meter sprint race, it is rare that the winner is not decided at the last second. In a normal 400-meter race, the winner is almost decided twenty or thirty meters before the finish line, and the rest is just Just cross the finish line in order.
But today, the competition reached the final moment, not just in the last five meters, but even when the two athletes made the finishing move, they looked like they were neck and neck.
"Zhang Guan! Why did I forget Zhang Guan! I shouldn't have let down my guard at the last moment, I should have continued to accelerate, so that I would have crossed the finish line first! Instead of being seized by him like now!" Varina was thinking while looking at the time card. Varina had vaguely noticed that Zhang Guan might be a little faster, but there was still a trace of expectation in his heart, expecting that his judgment was wrong, and expecting that in the end results.
JM-Wariner,44.09.
G-Zhang,43.99.
Zhang Guan defeated Varina by 0.1 seconds!
"The winner is Zhang Guan! In 43.99 seconds, Zhang Guan ran within 44 seconds! Although it was only 0.01 seconds faster than 44 seconds, it was indeed a result within 44 seconds! Since Michael Johnson retired, the track and field world has There has never been a time under 44 seconds! Today, Zhang Guan did it, he ran under 44 seconds! He won the 400-meter dash championship! More importantly, he made history!"
"Zhang Guan, the first athlete in history to participate in two events in one Golden League, and he won both events! It's unprecedented! Zhang Guan, he is the first in the world, 100 meters An athlete who broke 10 seconds in the sprint, 20 seconds in the 200-meter dash, and 44 seconds in the 400-meter dash! Before the game, everyone thought Zhang Guan was just going through the motions in the 400-meter race, but today, he told the world with his victory All over the world, he is the well-deserved king of sprinting!”
"Let's review the game just now. In the last 100 meters, Zhang Guan was in the last place, and then he started to surpass, surpassing all other athletes, and caught up with Varina before the finish line. The last one Seconds later, Zhang Guan and Varina still haven’t decided the winner. This is the most intense 400-meter race I have ever seen. Let us cheer for the athletes’ wonderful performance!”
Amid the roar of the audience, Varina looked frustrated. Varina knew that he lost in the last 0.1 seconds. He had been leading, but was overtaken in the last 0.1 seconds.
Varina clenched his fists tightly, feeling full of regret: "I can obviously run faster. In the game just now, as long as I was faster, there was no way I could overtake at the last moment! It was me. It’s all my fault, I got too carried away!”
After Warina expressed polite congratulations to Zhang Guan, he walked off the field in despair and came to Coach Hart's side.
"I'm sorry, coach, I lost! I could have run faster, but I was too careless." Warina lowered his head and said.
Coach Hart sighed softly and said: "Jeremy, do you think you lost to Zhang Guan? No, you didn't, you lost to yourself! You are the strongest 400-meter runner in the world right now. , in the 400-meter event, no one in this world is your opponent, so you have to remember that your enemy is only yourself. Only you who are lazy, proud, careless, and relaxed will This is the enemy you have to face, and you should take every game seriously, otherwise, you will never be able to surpass Michael Johnson, do you understand?"
…
"Golden League Oslo Station: Zhang Guan wins two championships alone"
"100 meters in 9.7 seconds, 400 meters in 44 seconds, Zhang Guan crossed the two hurdles"
"Zhang Guan, the strongest concurrent runner in history"
"The 100-meter world record is not enough, Zhang Guan wins another 400-meter sprint championship"
"Experts predict Zhang Guan's 200-meter dash performance"
The whole world's media suddenly became excited. Zhang Guan once again broke the men's 100-meter world record and improved the human 100-meter time to 9.70 seconds. This is definitely headline-level news. For ordinary people who don’t know much about track and field, the 400-meter champion behind is just a foil. Isn’t it natural for the fastest man in the world to win the 400-meter world championship
But in the eyes of professional sports people, the 400-meter dash championship and the time within 44 seconds are also of high value to Zhang Guan. Among the combined runners in the world, there is only one who can run from 100 meters to 400 meters and also achieve world championship level. Female flying star Marion Jones can barely count as one, but there is no such person among male athletes. An athlete. If an athlete can reach the world championship level in both the 100-meter dash and the 400-meter dash, it means that he is also a world champion in the 200-meter dash. From a certain perspective, winning the 100-meter and 400-meter world championships at the same time may be more difficult than breaking the 100-meter world record.
For a time, the title of "King of Sprinting" was pinned on Zhang Guan's head.
However, Zhang Guan did not pay attention to these compliments. What he focused on was another piece of news: "Varina: I was attacked!" 》
This is an interview with Varina. In the report, Varina said that he could run faster in the race. The reason why he lost to Zhang Guan in Oslo was because he did not expect that Zhang Guan would run faster at the last moment. After launching the attack, Varina said that he felt as if he was being attacked by Zhang Guan. He also said that in the next Golden League Paris game, he will definitely use his full strength to take revenge.
"Varina can indeed be faster." Zhang Guan put down the newspaper and fell into thinking.
"43.99 seconds is also not my limit. I can still go faster. But technically, I am really not as good as Varina! Technically, sprinting skills are fundamental. I must practice my skills well after I go back!"
…
After the Oslo Golden League match, Zhang Guan did not go to France to disturb Sharapova who was participating in the French Open. Instead, he flew directly back to China and immediately entered training. He knew how good Varina was at her peak. Strong, so he eagerly hopes to improve his sprinting skills to face the next competition.
The next stop of the Golden League Award is held in Paris, France on July 7. Zhang Guan has a full month to train and improve his technical level. Moreover, the organizers of the Paris Golden League competition have a 110-meter hurdles event, so Liu Feiren will also participate.
Xinzhuang training base.
Zhang Guan needs to train the 400 meters and the long jump at the same time, so he can be regarded as the busiest athlete in the base. He has to train an hour extra every day than other athletes.
At present, Zhang Guan mainly conducts skills training, while other athletes not only practice skills, but also conduct training in aspects such as strength, speed, and explosive power. Whether it is strength, speed, or explosive power, Zhang Guan is not lacking. What is most needed now is to strengthen technology.
After flying and landing, Zhang Guan once again jumped over the eight-meter line.
"As expected of Zhang Guan, this is the fifth time today that I have jumped the eight-meter line!" Coach Li, who is responsible for training the long jump event, quickly recorded it on paper, and at the same time began to sigh in his heart again.
At the eight-meter mark, only a handful of domestic athletes can achieve this result. However, for Zhang Guan, it seems like he is picking something out of his bag.
"At this speed, maybe Zhang Guan will be able to jump over 8.4 meters this year! After practicing for a year and breaking the national record, he is really a genius!" Coach Li sighed to himself. The current national record in the long jump is 8.40 meters. In Coach Li’s view, someone who can break the national record after one year of practice is definitely an incredible athlete. However, Coach Li forgot that three years ago, Zhang Guan only used Within two months, he broke the national record in the 100-meter dash.
Coach Li looked at his watch. Zhang Guan practiced for more than an hour, so he said, "It's almost time. I think we'll end it here today!"
"Why don't you practice for a while?" Zhang Guan said: "I will go to Paris to participate in the Golden League next week. Starting tomorrow, I will prepare for the Golden League. The time for long jump training will be shortened a lot."
Coach Li shook his head: "You have been practicing extra every day for the past month. Although it is all technical training, the amount of training is actually very large. Training this thing will definitely not work if the amount is small, but it will be okay if the amount is too much. No, my body can't bear it. It will take a long time anyway, so there's no need to rush."
Athlete training is a very professional knowledge. In the early years, domestic athlete training was based on the coaches' own estimation. Some simply increased the amount of training without limit. I don't know how many outstanding young people were ruined by training. With the development of the times, traditional training methods are gradually being eliminated, and scientific and reasonable training methods are being used more and more, especially some young coaches, who are all professional sports training students and do not know how to use Ways to infinitely increase your training volume.
Zhang Guan is one of the most elite athletes in the country. Even if he scratches his skin during training, the coach will have to report it. If Zhang Guan is injured due to overtraining, Coach Li will have to bear the burden, so he He decisively rejected Zhang Guan's request for additional training.
Zhang Guan walked out of the sand pool helplessly. He still felt a little pity, so he couldn't help but said: "Coach, you have nothing to do when you are idle. Why don't you tell me about the triple jump!"
