This time is completely different from the last time I participated in the competition alone.
Yang Yongqiang took himself over to see the venue a day in advance.
The feeling of having someone with you is still different. The last time I came alone, I was so nervous before the game.
In mid-November, it may have been very cold in the north, but in Guangdong Province, the climate was still very warm. Yang Yongqiang came over to open the hotel first, and then took Su Shen to the site to see the venue.
Of course, there are actually many schools and coaches with this intention who say that entry is prohibited before the game. However, everyone understands that in the human society, not many people believe this. Anyone who has some connections can find ways to get in.
.
When you want to get a driver's license, you have to get ready for the test in advance, let alone a competition. This will have an impact on the athletes' mentality.
Yang Yongqiang has classmates here, so he can naturally get in through connections.
Walking to the plastic playground of the city gymnasium, after running on the cinder road for so long, this familiar feeling suddenly made Su Shen feel much better. He touched the ground, um, the hardness was good, and then knocked
Knock and test the thickness.
This professional approach made Yang Yongqiang not even know what Su Shen was doing. Su Shen smiled and said that he had never seen such a beautiful runway, and he couldn't help but want to touch it. This explanation was very reasonable, because
Su Shen, who grew up in the countryside, really didn't have the opportunity to see him. Even in the city's schools, in 2004, few had their own plastic playground.
"Just like usual, don't be nervous, Xiaotian." Yang Yongqiang thought Su Shen would be nervous and comforted him a few words.
But why is Su Shen nervous? This is a habitual action for him.
After joining the Guozihao track and field team, this was a habit he gradually developed, because there are actually subtle differences in the hardness and thickness of the track. He used to do this in the course of adapting to the venue before every run.
"Get used to the track a little bit, Xiao Tian." It's hard to get in, so it would be a waste not to try. Su Shen hasn't run on this kind of plastic track for a long time, and he almost got excited and sprinted at full speed. But he didn't warm up enough.
, add to haste, for those who are in poor health and prone to injury, the faster you are, the more you need to warm up.
Suppressing the excitement in his heart, Su Shen simply adapted to it. In less than an hour, just when he was about to leave, a man suddenly stopped Yang Yongqiang. When Su Shen turned around, he saw that she was a middle-aged woman with short hair.
Not at all thin or fat like ordinary women, but giving people a healthy and uplifting feeling.
This person is Ning Debao from Xiangshan City Sports School.
"Yong Qiang, are you bringing your apprentice to see the venue in advance?" Ningdebao has actually been used to this kind of thing for a long time. In addition, she was only transferred from Hunan Province this year, so she has no foundation here.
For a professional sports school coach like her, if she wants to get a promotion and a salary increase, the fastest way to get a promotion is to have good results among her apprentices.
That is an affirmation of her coaching career.
"Yes, Sister Ning, I just brought this boy to do palm eye training, so as not to be nervous about the official competition tomorrow." Seeing that it was Ning Debao, Yang Yongqiang immediately smiled and said, it can be seen that the two personal trainers should be pretty good.
"Is this the genius apprentice you mentioned on the phone?" Ningdebao glanced at it, but immediately frowned.
Why, because...
Su Shen's height is not in the optimal height range for track and field events. And she knew from the phone call that Su Shen's parents are not very tall. So in this era, she feels that the room for growth is very limited.
The optimal height range for sprint events is generally considered to be around 1.85 meters.
Some famous sprinters are also around this height line. For example, Hu Kai, the fastest new flying star in China, "Glasses Man", is a typical example, with a height of 1.82 meters.
People in China believe in these things the most. The last time Su Shen joined the provincial team, he almost failed to qualify for the competition because of his height.
That's Yuan Guo Qiangbao of the provincial team, and he will probably not be selected for the provincial team.
This shows how much the so-called "optimal choice" can influence many things these days.
but……
This child should still be in junior high school, and may still be growing taller.
After briefly asking about the height of Su Shen's parents, Ning Debao inadvertently frowned. Because of this situation, unless the nutrition is particularly good and the genes are mutated, it will not be easy to grow taller. Not to mention 1.85 meters, even if it is
It is difficult to grow to 1.8 meters.
This is inherently disadvantageous for sprint events.
Yang Yongqiang seemed to have seen Ningdebao's expression, and immediately said good things: "Although his parents are not tall, they will still be taller, and his talent is really good. He is now at the level of a second-level athlete."
"Level 2 athlete?" Even though Yang Yongqiang thinks he is great here, or is considered good among sports students, if it is placed in a regular sports school, then this result is quite ordinary. But today's game is not famous because it is really
Students from sports schools will not come here, and the ones who come here are mostly sports students from various schools preparing for the college entrance examination.
"There may be errors in the notes. We will know how it goes after tomorrow's game." Ningdebao still didn't have much interest. After saying that, he made an appointment with Yang Yongqiang for dinner and left the playground.
"It's okay, Xiao Tian, she is like this. As long as you show real results, she will take it seriously." Yang Yongqiang didn't need to say this. Su Shen also knew very well that he had stayed under Ning Debao for several years.
Still don’t know Coach Ning’s temper?
Even though she is a female coach, she is very principled and shows no mercy at all.
But it is this kind of coach that can easily bring people out. It is easy to get along with a coach who is too casual, but it will be difficult for you to achieve results.
"I know, Coach Yang." Su Shen didn't take this matter to heart. He just wanted to run well in tomorrow's game.
He signed up for two events, one for men's 100 meters and one for men's 200 meters.
This is also his main focus in the future, and the project he trained the most in his previous life.
"Let's go, Xiao Tian. I'll take you to have a good meal tonight so that you won't have any energy tomorrow." Yang Yongqiang took Su Shen to a restaurant to have a blood meal, and arranged for Su Shen to have an early rest in the evening to save energy for tomorrow.
This Yang Yongqiang can also do it without asking Su Shen. In his previous life, he was known for his strict self-discipline.
I always go to bed before 11 o'clock at night, and I never use my mobile phone after going to bed.
This is something that ordinary athletes cannot do.
What's more, now, if you want to play with your mobile phone, there is no way.
After a silent night, Su Shen had long been accustomed to resting in various hotels without even recognizing a bed. He slept well all night and felt energetic when he woke up.
After brushing my teeth and washing my face, I checked my current "five-dimensional potential attributes"——
Strength:27.
Speed:30.
Stamina:26.
Reaction:31.
Flexibility:31.
Compared with the beginning of school, he has improved. It seems that his hard training is effective. The biggest benefit this "system" brings to him now is——
You can check your body data growth in real time. Unlike before, you can only estimate it, which is prone to deviations.
I woke up in the morning and went to have an authentic Cantonese breakfast with Yang Yongqiang in Xiangshan City. After they were full, they were ready to go to the Xiangshan City Gymnasium to warm up.
At eight o'clock sharp, under the lengthy speeches of several leaders, the Xiangshan City Middle School Student Track and Field Competition officially began.
The men's 100m preliminaries are at 10:30 am.
Su Shen took the opportunity to observe the level of these people, and it was really...not good.
None of the real strongmen from the sports school came, probably because they were all preparing for the Provincial Games and did not have time to come to this municipal competition. That’s why I took the first place in a muddle-headed way in my last life. Now it seems,
It's really a bit of luck.
"Xiao Tian, remember not to rush too hard in the preliminaries, otherwise your condition may be affected in the afternoon." Yang Yongqiang warned Su Shen before the game. This is an experienced saying, especially for young people who are participating in a formal competition for the first time.
The excitement is too intense and it consumes the body too much, leading to the collapse of the final performance.
The human body has its limits. If you squeeze it too hard, you may not be able to recover today.
The simplest thing is that if you run to the limit and refresh your PB, then it is very likely that you will not be able to perform even 90% today. Of course, there are some monsters that can be refreshed all the time, well, "Medicine Jar Cyborg" can also be used.
"Well, Teacher Yang, I will remember to pay attention." Su Shen nodded, knowing that Yang Yongqiang was caring about him.
To the sound of classic music from domestic sports games, the game began.
"Pay attention to the performance of others. This is the gathering of middle school students from all over Xiangshan City." Yang Yongqiang said beside him, but Su Shen was really not interested in people of this level. He was originally looking for his cousin.
Su Yun, I remember that Su Yun also said that he would come, but he didn't seem to be seen.
I remember that I didn't see it in my last life. Did something happen?
But there were no mobile phones in this era, so it was difficult to know the first-hand situation of relatives in boarding schools.
Finally it's Su Shen's turn.
Yang Yongqiang relaxed Su Shen's shoulders: "Relax, don't be nervous, Xiao Tian, just train at your usual level."
"Also remember that this is just a preliminary round, don't try too hard."
"Ignore the cameras and cameras, just run."
…
In fact, Yang Yongqiang rarely led his team to participate in such formal municipal competitions, so he couldn't really tell that Su Shen's current state... there was no trace of tension.
He was just thinking about whether he could break the record for middle school students in Xiangshan City this time.
He is also full of expectations for his first regular competition in this life.
