The commentator on the scene said: "The Olympic A standard for the men's 1500-meter event is 3 minutes, 36 seconds and 60 seconds, and the Olympic B standard is 3 minutes and 39 seconds. Currently, no Chinese athlete can reach the standard in this event. We hope that Zhang Guan I can get a ticket to the Olympic Games in the next 1,500-meter preliminaries!"
At the starting line, the starter signaled everyone to get ready, and with a "pop" sound, the starting gun sounded that Zhang Guan had not heard for a long time.
Perhaps because he had not participated in the 1,500-meter race for too long, Zhang Guan looked a little rusty at the start. Even though the organizer arranged a better position for him, he was still squeezed to the middle and back.
But Zhang Guan is not in a hurry. His "Follow Running" skill is meant to follow others, and it doesn't matter if he doesn't leave the group.
But not long after, Zhang Guan discovered that the speed of this group was also very slow. The leader was slow and the followers were also slow.
"With such a slow speed, no wonder I can't even win the Olympic B standard." Zhang Guan was a little helpless, but this was a 1,500-meter race, and it was obviously impossible for him to rush to the front and lead by himself.
The athletes were in the same group, and no one was left behind. They just went from the straight to the curve, and then from the curve to the straight. The formation and position of the athletes did not change. Everyone was still running step by step.
This kind of scene was boring to watch, and the audience's initial cheers turned into speechless silence. Halfway through the race, some spectators even yawned, which is what happens when athletes pass by the track in front of them. Some sparse applause comes to mind.
1000 meters, 1100 meters, 1200 meters, in the blink of an eye, there were only the last 300 meters left before the finish line, and at this time Zhang Guan started to get anxious.
"Why do I feel like I'm running slower than the first group? If I keep running like this, my final result will be 3 minutes and 48 seconds, which is 10 seconds slower than the Olympic B mark! No, I can't wait any longer. That's it. If I use up more energy, I have to rush forward first!" Zhang Guan thought of this, turned to the outside in the straight, and started to accelerate.
"Zhang Guan, after leaving the big group, he accelerated, rushed up, and rushed to the first place! Entering the corner, Zhang Guan's speed still did not drop! Come on, Zhang Guan, come on!" The commentator suddenly became excited, and at the same time , the audience at the scene also began to chant, applaud, and cheer for Zhang Guan.
Zhang Guan's physical strength is declining rapidly, but his speed is very fast, much faster than other players.
As time passed by, Zhang Guan's lead was getting bigger and bigger, but he became more and more panicked.
"Oops, the one running in front is really too slow. Even if I am accelerating, I may not be able to reach the target."
Zhang Guan entered the final straight track and began to sprint. He was getting closer and closer to the finish line, but the time was also getting closer and closer to the Olympic A standard of 3 minutes, 36 seconds and 60 seconds.
"Can't reach the Olympic A standard!" The timer in Zhang Guan's system has reached 3 minutes and 37 seconds, exceeding the Olympic A standard of 3 minutes, 36 seconds and 60 seconds.
"It seems that the Olympic B mark is also a bit hanging." The time has reached 3 minutes and 38 seconds, and Zhang Guan is still some distance from the finish line.
Just before the finish line, the time has reached 3 minutes and 39 seconds, which is the line for reaching the Olympic B standard.
"It's just a little bit close! It didn't even reach the Olympic B standard. It was just too slow." Zhang Guan simply slowed down. In the end, Zhang Guan's time stayed at 3 minutes, 39 seconds and 98 seconds.
"What a pity. It's just a little bit less than one second away from Zhang Guan reaching the Olympic B standard! It can be seen that Zhang Guan has tried his best. What a pity! But this is just the preliminary round. After that We still have one final, and Zhang Guan still has a chance to qualify for the Olympics," the commentator said.
At the finish line, Zhang Guanye shook his head helplessly. He didn't even reach the Olympic B standard, which was unexpected.
All the athletes and spectators in the auditorium also started talking about it.
"It seems that Zhang Guan's condition has not yet returned to its peak state!"
"Yes, I remember that Zhang Guan once ran a time of 3 minutes, 28.88 seconds in the 1,500-meter event. His time now is 11 seconds slower than his peak time!"
"As I said a long time ago, Zhang Guan has been dead since he hasn't practiced track and field for such a long time. The 8.26 meters he just jumped from in the long jump is just a coincidence. Zhang Guan's current strength in track and field is the Olympic B standard level. He He is far from his peak, and maybe he will never be able to return to the level he was two years ago!"
"A few days ago, I thought Zhang Guan could win three gold medals in the Olympics. Looking at his condition today, he can't even reach the Olympic B standard. Not to mention three Olympic gold medals, just one! "
"I told Zhang Guan to just keep practicing tennis honestly. At least he can keep a tennis gold medal, but in the end he won't be able to win the tennis gold medal and the track and field gold medal."
"I heard that he also participated in the men's basketball national team and the NBA draft. It's really self-inflicted. His track and field level has dropped so much, and he still has to play basketball!"
"Perhaps Zhang Guan knows that he can no longer win a championship in track and field, so he is preparing to change his career!"
Of course, there were also voices in the crowd defending Zhang Guan:
"This is just the preliminary round. Maybe Zhang Guan is hiding his strength?"
However, someone immediately retorted: "Hidden strength? Didn't you see that during the final sprint just now, Zhang Guan was already running as hard as he could, but in the end he still failed to reach the Olympic B standard!"
…
An hour later, Zhang Guan appeared on the track and field again. This was his last game this morning, the men's 400-meter preliminaries.
"Zhang Guan is on the stage again, it's the 400-meter preliminaries!"
"In the 1,500 meters just now, Zhang Guan didn't even reach the Olympic B standard. In this kind of competition condition, it depends on what he will do!"
"That's different. The 400 meters is Zhang Guan's strength. He is the world record holder in the 400 meters. However, in the 1500 meters, Zhang Guan did not break the world record. Zhang Guan is stronger in the 400 meters than in the 1500 meters. too much."
"That was only in the past! Zhang Guan was once very strong in the 400 meters, but that doesn't mean he will still be very strong now!" This person said the word "once" with great emphasis.
The 1,500 meters did not even reach the Olympic B standard, which indeed affected many people's confidence in Zhang Guan, and there were more and more doubts about Zhang Guan.
In the athlete preparation area, there is an Australian player and a Japanese player in the same group as Zhang Guan.
These two foreign athletes are unknowns in track and field events. They usually have the opportunity to participate in competitions in their home countries. Their strength may be stronger than ordinary Chinese athletes, but they are definitely not comparable to Zhang Guan. .
However, Zhang Guan's performance in the 1,500-meter event just now gave the Australian athlete hope. He feels that Zhang Guan has not yet returned to his peak condition, and this is also a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for him.
The Australian player's name was Mark. At this time, his eyes revealed a provocative light and he cast his gaze towards Zhang Guan, who was not far away.
"I never thought I would be able to compete with Zhang Guan one day. This is Zhang Guan, the world track and field king back then!" Mark took a deep breath: "But Zhang Guan's current state may not even reach the Olympic B standard. And I can reach the B standard in the Olympics, I am better than the current Zhang Guan, today is the moment for me to defeat Zhang Guan and become famous!"
