Chapter 1740: Getting old? I still want to fight for another 10 years!
The final of the 110-meter hurdles ended first.
Liu Xiang is really impeccable in the country.
Or in Asia, it’s really what he said——
As long as I don't make mistakes, no one can win against me.
Do you think he is being arrogant?
In fact, he was just telling the truth.
It's just that he has reached this state.
Jog all the way.
You feel that he has no practical ability at all, he easily ran 13.25 seconds, and just passed the finish line softly.
And this scene is for other contemporary players in Asia...
That is a lifelong pursuit.
Even Shi Dongpeng, the former No. 2 player in Asia, can achieve such results except for the peak games, and he is still in excellent condition.
But this kind of achievement is not suitable for Liu Xiang.
It is completely meaningless.
It cost him nothing at all to run this.
He didn't even take a breath to remember during the interview. He just expressed his desire for London when facing reporters.
Of course, he also responded to the fact that the world's best score, wl, was taken away by American player Merritt.
"Merritt is a very good athlete. I really didn't know him that well before, but now you understand him so well."
"When he runs within 12.95 seconds, he will be a strong contender for the Olympic gold medal."
"In terms of this year's performance, it doesn't matter whether Oliver comes or not, as long as Merritt of the American team comes."
"But what I want to say is..."
Liu Xiang paused here, and still revealed the confidence in his words: "The current Olympic record is still mine."
"Want to beat me?"
"See you in London."
Liu Xiang's interview attracted warm cheers from many people. I originally thought that there would be no suspense in this year's Olympic Games. However, the 110-meter short span suddenly became full of suspense due to Merritt's strong performance.
In particular, he still took away Liu Xiang's best result in the world this season, which further intensified the sense of confrontation between the two.
This can be seen in the Las Vegas gaming company's odds changes for Liu Xiang. Liu Xiang, who was originally far ahead, now has a pursuer.
Merritt's odds even surpassed Liu Xiang for a short time after running 12.93 seconds.
You definitely need to understand this.
First of all, everyone has a recency effect.
The second is...
Las Vegas is in the United States.
Not at the flower garden.
Naturally, Americans are more willing to support American athletes.
Originally there was no hope of victory. There was nothing we could do. After all, it was a competitive sport. But once someone stood up and even surpassed Liu Xiang in the competition, they would naturally gain a lot of support from local track and field fans in the United States.
Why are the Olympics so exciting?
Why the world's largest competitive arena?
It's very simple...
After you go to the Olympics, because you are wearing the national team uniform, no matter what kind of reputation you have in your original country, whether this person liked you before or not, they will start to support you more unconditionally because you are wearing the national team uniform.
.
This is the charm of the Olympic Games.
Compared to Liu Xiang, the second place may be even more surprising. He broke his best score with this shot and successfully beat Xie Wenjun in 13.30 seconds.
Of course, it seemed that his 13.29 seconds were only 0.04 seconds behind Liu Xiang, but he was running with all his strength, while Liu Xiang was running wildly throughout the building, and even slowed down significantly in the end.
So if you watch this game, you will know that it looks like 0.04 seconds, but in fact the gap between the two people is ridiculously large.
Shi Dongpeng performed very poorly in this game and only finished in 6th place. He even failed to compete with many players who could easily defeat him before.
It is already impossible for him to enter the Olympics.
However, he had already begun to think about quitting.
It's just that it's just in time for the Olympics, and he's very famous in China, so he won't be able to compete.
It doesn't matter if we come down now.
Moreover, it is difficult for him to reach the standard this season. Even if he relies on points, there is no point in going there.
Xie Wenjun can run under 13.30 seconds with this shot, which can be regarded as breaking his class, allowing our country's sprint athletes besides Liu Xiang to still appear on the world stage.
It's enough for Dashi to see this.
He also dedicated his youth to the flower gardener's track and field sports.
When you are about to retire, you naturally hope that there will be young athletes to step up.
Although Xie Wenjun's performance is still far behind Liu Xiang's level, Sun Haiping believes that it is very possible for him to run a little over 13 seconds in the end.
In this way, at least dominating Asia will not be a problem.
But Su Shen actually had higher expectations for him.
What this means is that he also came here with Liu Xiang in 2008. The various training conditions, training concepts, and training nutrition level have far surpassed his own at the same time.
Besides, although Ralph Mann only took Liu Xiang with him, he had to leave the rest of the time to himself to do valuable research. But since he handed Liu Xiang these things, Liu Xiang would definitely not forget to keep asking himself questions when he was free.
's little junior brother.
Liu Xiang's reputation cannot be overemphasized on this point.
As long as the brothers who have come into contact with him, there is not a single one who would not praise him.
He never kept his experiences to himself, but shared them generously.
It's just a pity that he is not a scientific athlete, and his sports achievements are all obtained through traditional experience, so it can only be said that talent takes up more of the situation.
However, after he came to Ersha Island and came into contact with these new things, he gradually became familiar with them and was able to give Xie Wenjun more development suggestions.
Of course the most obvious one.
It must be the change in his figure.
This is also the most obvious sign for other athletes coming to Ersha Island.
You just come in.
So in this era, the thin track and field bodies will experience substantial growth and progress here.
Xie Wenjun was supposed to be close to the age of 30 when he started to really build up muscle mass, but he had already made preparations early on this timeline.
You don’t have to wait until around 30 to reach your peak.
In fact, as long as you reach your peak in your 30s, you have not received the most appropriate training methods and development methods before, and have taken a detour.
Otherwise, you wouldn't start to reach the so-called "peak" after your body function drops to this level.
But in this day and age, he won't have such regrets.
He is only 21 years old now and will be 22 next month. He indeed still has a lot to do.
After all, his career longevity is quite good.
Otherwise, you won't reach your peak until you are around 30 years old. If your battery life is not good, you will have to retire sadly before you reach your so-called "peak".
This shows that its battery life and durability are both good, and it has some talent.
Xie Wenjun is also very happy that he can participate in his first Olympic Games. Although he has already participated in the World Championships, the Olympic Games is undoubtedly the biggest stage.
In 2008, he was too young to have this opportunity, but now he finally has the opportunity.
He also wants to shine on the Olympic stage.
As for female athletes, it goes without saying that since Chen Juan began to master the bent-arm start, her overall strength has reached a higher level. In terms of her start, even many European and American female athletes are surprised, let alone you.
domestic……
Completely at the level of a great devil.
Play it loud and easy, 11 seconds 10.
Headwind 0.5.
Coupled with her unrestrained attitude, she is simply one of the best in form, making many people look forward to her showing off her skills in this year's Olympics.
Wei Yongli's shot also reached 11.20 seconds, tying her own best time, but unfortunately it still did not hit the 11.20 mark.
In fact, she ran pretty well with this shot, but the wind speed was not strong enough. As a result, the time of 11.20 seconds that she should have set long ago after winter training has not been broken yet.
Wei Yongli shook his head slightly and lamented that he was unlucky. Chen Juan came over and touched his head, indicating not to be discouraged and that the wind speed would eventually improve.
Wei Yongli nodded.
She really wished she could have good wind speed for herself in London.
Although he has the ability to open 11 seconds 20, he has not yet opened it, which makes people feel a little frustrated.
As for the rest, the results were also good. The third place was Yuan Qiqi. She ran 11.40 seconds in this shot, but it was a pity that she was still far from the A mark.
She was born in April 1995, which is still far from being 18 years old. He is already very satisfied with this result.
There was even a little bit of excitement.
It was only one step away from opening, 11 seconds 47, which is considered an excellent performance among many domestic female athletes.
She will not turn 20 until the 2015 Imperial Capital World Championships, and that should be the stage for her performance.
Not now.
The fourth place was Kong Lingwei, with a time of 11.49 seconds, and also opened the shot with a time of 11.50 seconds.
She became another athlete in the country with 11.40. This score could have directly competed for medals in the National Games in previous years. And she was also born in 1995, so she became an adult very early.
The most surprising ones are the last two.
Yuan Qiqi and Kong Lingwei are almost 17 years old anyway, and will turn 18 in the second half of 2013.
Since girls develop earlier and get results earlier, there is no problem, at least that's the way it is viewed in China.
The remaining two are just real brats.
Ge Manqi, a little girl with Nezha hair, once again broke 11.60 seconds and ran to a time of 11.55 seconds. She will not turn 20 until October 2017. Calculating her current age, she is alarmingly young.
He won’t turn 15 until October.
My dear.
And looking at his situation, he will definitely be able to run 11.40 seconds at the age of 15 next year. Looking at it this way, the national team can finally create an environment where 11.40 seconds require competition and involution.
Otherwise, like before, if you do 11 seconds 4, you will directly enter the main selection, and even have to support you. You may be one of the strongest.
What a waste of competition.
However, the little girl herself was a little dissatisfied. After finishing the run, she complained repeatedly that the wind speed was not good. If it had been better, she would have wanted to go for 11.50 seconds.
Because the eldest brother and eldest sister in Ersha Island all pushed the flower grower's sprint score too high, which made the younger brothers and sisters think that they originally ran well, but the results did not look so good.
I want them to be satisfied.
This life is probably a bit difficult.
The sixth is a petite and cute girl who almost cried after finishing the run. Liang Xiaojing’s time for this shot was 11 seconds 58. Although this was related to the headwind shot, she was quite dissatisfied with finishing last among everyone.
This is because although she looks smaller than Ge Manqi, she is actually half a year older than the latter, so being behind makes him feel very uncomfortable.
There is always competition here on Ersha Island.
Everyone wants to stand by Chen Juan's side earlier.
Although they are still young, in Ersha Island, in the competition atmosphere of the men's team's competitions, although there are still many things that they don't understand about the rules, they gradually understand a truth...
In the end, only three people were able to go up.
Otherwise, the men's sprint team wouldn't be fighting for a spot.
They also tacitly agree in their hearts that Chen Juan will definitely take one of the places. Secondly, Wei Yongli, the second sister, can probably take one, so the only thing left is...
You can compete for a spot.
Of course I feel a little nervous.
Athletes who grew up on Ersha Island do not take domestic competitions and honors seriously. Everyone wants to show off on the world stage.
This kind of mentality change can only be cultivated here in Ersha Island in the whole of China and Asia.
As for the rest of the traditional masters, the seventh and eighth place finishers couldn't even get within 11.50 seconds.
Seeing that her junior brothers and sisters are so capable and competitive, Chen Juan, as the first sister in active service, of course has to cheer them up during interviews with reporters:
"You all did a great job. You are all still young. I hope to compete in the 2015 Imperial Capital World Championships in the future..."
"I can represent flower growers and fight side by side with you!"
The voices of idols are always powerful, especially when young people's worldview is immature. Having a high-quality idol as inspiration and guidance is a good promotion for young athletes.
There is no doubt that Chen Juan is this quality candidate.
Look at these little girls, after hearing Chen Juan's expectations, they all seem to be full of energy and vitality. The depression and unhappiness just now are all forgotten, and you will know that the effect is quite good.
"Girl Juan is becoming more and more considerate now that she is the eldest sister." Zhao Haohuan said: "She is still the same among us as before, so sometimes I really forget that she has grown up."
"Everyone will grow up." Su Shen smiled and looked at the big screen, where Chen Juan was being interviewed: "Although he is the youngest among us, he is already in his early 20s now, and it is time to shoulder the responsibility.
"
"Yes, we are no longer teenagers." Zhao Haohuan couldn't help but sigh: "We feel old."
"Okay, then you should stop and don't take me with you." Su Shen said, "I'm still prepared to fight for another 10 years."
"Another 10 years? None of our yellow sprinters are over 30 years old and can still maintain a high level. Even counting straight events, only Brother Xiang is now close to 30."
"How dare you think."
Zhao Haohuan is based on the facts. He thinks it will be okay if he can continue for a few more years. However, if you say that you can maintain an excellent level after the age of 30, he really doesn't dare to think about it.
After all, sprinting in this era is still considered age-related.
Your twenties is the best age.
There was even a popular saying in China that one would decline at the age of 23.
Zhao Haohuan believes that they can persist until the World Championships in Beijing.
It's already very, very good.
After all, he could still maintain peak performance at that time. Even Su Shen had just turned 26, and he was more than 27.
Going forward...even now he doesn't dare to think about it.
People always naturally remain doubtful and uncertain about things that have never appeared before.
Only Su Shen patted his shoulder and said:
"Is there anything you dare not think about?"
"I thought that we yellow people couldn't break 10, wouldn't we have broken it? If we couldn't win Olympic medals, wouldn't we have won it? If we couldn't win the OW competition-level gold medal, wouldn't we have done it?"
"Don't tie yourself down."
"Anyway, I think..."
"As long as we train scientifically, do all kinds of maintenance and upkeep in the future, and have more self-discipline, our professional life span will not be worse than that of Europeans and Americans."
"If no one believes it."
"Then I will do it first, and then tell those who come after me that we can do it, that's all."
"Is it like what you have always done?" Zhao Haohuan said, "I don't believe what you say when others say this. Well, unfortunately, it's like I don't believe my brother."
"Then let me believe it."
"Okay, okay." Su Shen gave his chest a blow and did not say more about the future topic, but returned to the topic: "Don't think about the future now."
"It's our turn."
"remember."
"Come into this competition with me with the mentality of beating me."
"and……"
"Don't you want to go through such a close competition to stimulate yourself before the Olympics?"
After Zhao Haohuan looked at Su Shen for a long time, he really hadn't thought of this before.
Yes, this is not just a stimulation for Xiaotian's competitive state.
For me.
Isn't this also a good opportunity?
Breaking 9.80 seconds before the Olympics, or even going further?!
The idea comes to mind here.
Zhao Haohuan's heart felt extra hot, and his condition and desire to win were obviously improved compared to just now.
very good.
Su Shen laughed inwardly.
Looks like his own pre-game motivational talk.
It's become more and more convenient.
