Director Ma on the rostrum curled his lips: "I thought Zhang Guan was going to lead! He rushed so far forward all of a sudden. He still has to follow! I was so excited that I didn't see the point..."
"This kid is not stupid!" Director Yu added: "Not to mention, this looks like a runner. It is very consistent with the speed of the athlete in front. Well... the rhythm is very similar. It seems that Zhang Guan is very adaptable to the rhythm of the athlete in front of him!"
"Well, I ran quite smoothly, it's not like I was pretending." Director Ma replied.
At this time, the athletes on the track entered the second 200-meter area.
In the 800-meter run, the distance from 200 meters to 400 meters is the most difficult to run. First of all, athletes will face physiological challenges during this distance. When running at a high speed of more than 200 meters, the body's energy will gradually be provided by the lactic acid system. The blood lactic acid content will increase, and the human body will feel various discomforts.
The second is the issue of rhythm. During this distance, the athletes have completed merging. Everyone on the same track will tend to run at the same rhythm, and the rhythm depends on the leading athlete. The athletes following behind need to work hard to adjust themselves during this period of time, so that their bodies can adapt to their own following rhythm as much as possible. This is also a major difficulty in the 800-meter run. If you can't find a rhythm that suits you and force yourself to follow, your physical exertion will increase significantly.
And many times the leader will continue to change his leading rhythm. Once the leader's leading rhythm changes, the following rhythm will naturally change. For the follower, he is forced to change his following rhythm. It is also a test of physical strength and ability.
Therefore, at this time, the competition situation looks like it is calm and everyone is running at a constant speed, but in fact the athletes are constantly fighting each other, accumulating their own advantages bit by bit, or losing one by one. It gradually consumes the opponent's advantage, waiting for the final sprint to give the opponent a fatal blow.
The first lap was quickly completed. At this time, the athletes' physical strength had declined to varying degrees. The athletes behind were also ready to move, considering whether to attack the athletes in front. However, no one would choose to try to break through Zhang Guan. Firstly, Zhang Guan is in a better position, and secondly, Zhang Guan is following too closely. He has exactly the same rhythm and speed as the athlete in front.
Just like that, the race passed another 200 meters.
Director Ma on the rostrum frowned silently. He could feel that this group of athletes was not actually running fast.
In middle-distance running, the person who determines the results of the race is often the leader. Each leader has different speed, technology and tactical choices, so it is often the case that the preliminaries results are better than the final results.
Today's leader is obviously not the type of fast runner, so Director Ma can already predict that the results of this group of athletes will definitely not be very good. In today's promotion competition, the top two in each group plus the two third-place finishers with the best scores advance to the finals, so the group that runs relatively slowly will definitely have the lowest score. Three is like being cheated by the slow leader.
Director Ma turned his attention to the field. Among the athletes competing, the third one was Zhang Guan!
…
"Why so slow!" Zhang Guan also felt that the leader in front was a bit slow. There was a timer in his system, and he could feel the passage of time better than others.
"If we keep running like this, the 800 meters will take more than 1 minute and 56 seconds!" Zhang Guan estimated the time, and then thought: "This woman's national record for the 800 meters is all within 1 minute and 56 seconds. A group of us Man, running an 800-meter run with a time of 1 minute and 56 seconds is quite embarrassing!"
At the same time, Zhang Guan also knows that if he runs slower in the front, it means he has better physical reserves. The final sprint will definitely be fiercer, especially for athletes with higher levels. Now that the pace has been slowed down by the lead in this race, the final sprint will definitely be extremely fierce.
"No, I can't waste it with you guys. I still have enough energy. Running behind you guys is just a waste of time. Let's leave first and won't take you to play anymore!" Thinking of this, Zhang Guan rushed to the outside. And passed.
Zhang Guan's actions immediately attracted everyone's attention.
At this time, the athlete was running in the last corner. Zhang Guan quickly adjusted his position, cut from the first innermost lane to the second lane, and then started to accelerate.
"Zhang Guan is on the outside. Is he going to lead? It's still far from the finish line. Zhang Guan will definitely not sprint now."
In a curve, even if it is two adjacent tracks, the athletes on the outside track have to run a lot more distance, so most athletes will choose to enter the straight track before running into the second track on the outside. Or the third lane, unless you are the kind of person who is very confident in his speed, he will cut to the outside lane in the corner.
At this time, Zhang Guan was clearly ahead of the other athletes in terms of speed. After he started to accelerate, he quickly stood out and gained a clear lead. Then Zhang Guan quickly returned to the first lane on the innermost side.
This kind of sudden facing from behind to the front is still very common in competitions. Some players who are very confident in their own strength will often make such a choice when they find that the leader is slower.
Then, Zhang Guan directly chose to start sprinting. Although he had run more than 600 meters, Zhang Guan's physical consumption was only half of that of other players. This more abundant physical strength was instantly reflected in the change of rhythm.
In middle-distance running competitions, the rhythm of athletes' sprinting changes very little. If you don't compare it carefully, it will feel like the athletes are running at the same speed as before in the final sprint. In fact, due to the decline in physical strength, many athletes are running at the same speed at the end. I didn't dare to drastically adjust my rhythm during the sprint, I just slightly increased the frequency of my steps.
But today, Zhang Guan is different. His rhythm has changed a lot compared to before. After all, he has more physical strength, which also allows Zhang Guan to dare to change the rhythm of exercise significantly.
"Zhang Guan's speed suddenly became so fast! How could the final sprint of 800 meters be so fast? Can his physical strength support such a fast speed?" Director Ma on the rostrum couldn't help but stand up, and then he suddenly felt that this scene It's very familiar, just like Zhang Guan's 400-meter sprint.
In the 400-meter dash, Zhang Guan was able to reach a speed of 200 meters at the end. In today's 800-meter dash, Zhang Guan's speed in the final sprint is about the same as that of a normal athlete running 400 meters.
"Is this again? It's like running a 400-meter race, but you don't start running so fast until the final sprint. With so much energy left, it would be great to lead directly from the start to the finish line!" Director Yu murmured to himself.
On the field, other athletes saw Zhang Guan rushing to the front. They didn't pay attention at the beginning. They thought Zhang Guan was going to take the lead. But when Zhang Guan started to accelerate, everyone woke up as if from a dream.
"Zhang Guan is not taking the lead, he is sprinting!"
"Sprinting so early, you may not be able to hold on to your physical strength!"
Then the next moment, everyone was surprised.
"Why is it so fast? Why does it feel like our starting speed is about the same?"
"I ran 800 meters. When I first started and had the most energy, I might not be as fast as he is now!"
"Huh? Why is this sprint speed so fast? I have already run almost 700 meters. If Zhang Guan can sprint so fast, he must still have enough physical strength! Then I have to hurry up too!"
"This is impossible. Didn't he run more than 600 meters in front of him? How could he still run so fast?"
When the other players realized that Zhang Guan was sprinting, they all sped up, instantly picking up the overall rhythm. This is what middle-distance running is like. Generally, as long as someone sets the pace, others will follow suit and improve their own pace, and accordingly the final results will also improve.
Under normal circumstances, the sprint point of the 800 meters is not so early. Since Zhang Guan sprinted in advance, other athletes also started sprinting in advance, so the sprint point in this round of competition was improved a lot. At this time, you can see The difference in athletes' strength is revealed. Athletes with high strength will gradually lead in the next sprint, while athletes with low strength will slowly fall behind in the next sprint. The players who were originally in the same group will be divided into different grades in the next 30 to 50 meters. Only the top few are qualified for the final contest.
However, these are no longer important. Zhang Guan's sprint speed is really much faster than others. When entering the final straight track, he was already far ahead. The final straight-line sprint is Zhang Guan's best running method. Being in the lead and the world's best straight-line sprint, there is no doubt that Zhang Guan will win the championship in this group.
Zhang Guan's final time was 1 minute, 51 seconds and 07 seconds, failing to break the 1 minute and 50 seconds mark. But judging from the results, this result is at the mid-range level. In the 800-meter race in domestic competitions, running under 1 minute and 49 seconds is generally considered a relatively fast result.
The second place's time was 1 minute 52 seconds 89, and the third place's time was 1 minute 53 seconds, which was also a relatively slow time. The other athletes in the same group also had times around 1 minute 54 seconds. Fortunately, Zhang Guan chose to sprint early in the game, which also forced other players to speed up. Otherwise, the data of this group might have reached 1 minute and 56 seconds.
Looking at the results of other athletes, Zhang Guan shook his head gently. The middle-distance running level of domestic athletes is indeed not very good. The athletes at the back of this group are nearly 15 seconds slower than the world record.
"The leader was running too slowly, which blinded me to my master-level follow-up skills. I hope the leader can be faster in the final the day after tomorrow!" Zhang Guan thought silently.
