Chapter 249: Young Flying Man

After a happy year in my hometown, 2002 finally came.

On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, Zhou Guyuan left his hometown and returned to the capital to train, after all, there is really not much time before the World Youth Athletics Championships.

The World Youth Championships will be held in Kingston, Jamaica, from July 16 to 22.

After the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, after all, it is after February 16th, and there are only more than four months left before the competition time.

Therefore, training is a race against time, and we dare not delay in the slightest.

Since coming to the capital for training last year, Zhou Guyuan has determined two plans, one is that the training of the 100-meter sprint cannot be left behind, and the second is to start targeted training of 200 meters, especially to strengthen the training in corners.

Both need to be taken into account, and you can imagine how much training is required.

In fact, when he was with Coach Fang before, Zhou Guyuan also trained for these two items, but he was more inclined to 100 meters.

Because at that time, he had not yet proven himself in the 200-meter event, and at this National Games, his shortcomings soon came out.

Liu Yang: They can run about 21 seconds in 200 meters, almost within 21 seconds, which is already a very powerful result.

But what about Zhou Guyuan?

Every weekend during the test, he would hover between 21 seconds and 30 to 40, which was very steady but useless.

In the 100-meter sprint, he can stabilize between 10.10 and 10.18 seconds, and occasionally run in 10.09 or 08 seconds.

However, in the 200-meter event, it is not schooled

"Zhou Guyuan, I've been with you many times, you have to remember that when you start in the corner, where should the center of gravity be, you can't deviate too much, but you can't run completely according to the start of the straight, otherwise you will suffer a lot......"

In the training hall, Du Bingkang almost couldn't suppress his anger, and his tone was completely different from a few months ago.

was reprimanded by the coach, Zhou Guyuan still looked like a hanger, and he didn't know if he heard it

Of course, he understands centrifugal force or something, but if you want to accelerate at the start of a corner, you have to tilt the angle of your body slightly, which is not an easy thing to do.

Acceleration and inclination are almost the two words he has been saying the most in recent times.

He was also a little upset, but he had to endure the humiliation to go to school

The coach's temper is not bad, he didn't shout, and no matter how good the coach is, he can't ignore the good and the bad.

Although, according to normal circumstances, he is in the rebellious period at this age, it is normal to refute a few words.

But he didn't want to waste his time on a war of words, which would be too much of a delay.

Time gradually passed with the busy training, and when Zhou Guyuan was still immersed in how to swing his arms to accelerate, the days had reached the beginning of July.

With July on the horizon and the World Junior Championships, it looks like you'll have to get ready to get on the plane.

Jamaica is located in the Caribbean Sea directly from North and South America, close to Cuba.

When Zhou Guyuan came to this island country in big pants, he was suddenly stimulated by the oncoming heat wave.

Unlike the subtropical monsoon in Mauritius, Jamaica is a pure tropical monsoon, which is very hot and the sun is very hot.

When he came to Jamaica, Zhou Guyuan didn't have the idea of going out shopping, but Zhang Meiling and Zhang Yuxuan, who came with him, walked all over the street with great interest.

However, not long after I went out, I came back again.

"Mom, Sister Xuan, why are you back?"

Seeing the two of them running back angrily, Zhou Guyuan asked funny.

The two of them seemed to be angry, and they didn't bother to say a word, but Tang Ning explained with a wry smile.

Jamaica is so hot that you can feel the ultraviolet rays when you walk around with an umbrella, and there is nothing to do on the streets here, as if you have returned to the country in the seventies and eighties.

In 02, Jamaica's tourism industry was not very developed, and the tourism industry of many surrounding island countries was more developed than Jamaica.

It's like the previous popular video on Douyin, where tourists on vacation on the beach saw a plane flying a few dozen meters above their heads, which is the very famous Princess Juliana International Airport.

Known as the world's most exciting airport, planes fly dozens of meters overhead, lifting tourists into the sea.

This one in Sint Maarten is located in the Caribbean Sea, across the sea from Jamaica. With an area of only 87 square kilometers, the airport is quite narrow, and even the runway is much shorter than other airports, at only 2,480 meters long, making it the shortest runway in the world.

Zhang Yuxuan had been mentioned by Tang Ning before he came, and they planned to come here for a walk after Zhou Guyuan's competition to experience the feeling of the plane landing at such a close distance.

Participating in the competition this time, Zhou Guyuan reported two events, 100 meters and 200 meters.

Whether it was the preliminaries, preliminaries, semifinals, or finals, Zhou Guyuan did not meet any acquaintances in the 100-meter sprint.

They were all unfamiliar faces, but on the two-hundred-meter track, Zhou Guyuan actually recognized Bolt.

Bolt, who is only sixteen years old, is already 1.91 meters tall, taller than Zhou Guyuan.

Actually, if you are serious, the height difference between the two Rao is not far apart, but Bolt has proven himself as an athlete on the 200-meter track.

Bolt came out of poverty, and his father sent him to a local sports school to practice sprinting, which was the only way for them to escape poverty in Jamaica.

Last year, in 01 years, Usain Bolt won all the top athletics championships in the Caribbean.

Therefore, when Zhou Guyuan and Bolt met unexpectedly in the preliminaries, they were easily surpassed by the latter.

In the preliminaries, Zhou Guyuan ran a good time of 21.01 seconds, but Usain Bolt had a time of 20.55 seconds.

is worthy of being a future world flyer, with lightning-fast speed, and Bolt himself is the champion of the 400 meters, full of stamina.

Although Zhou Guyuan is also quite confident compared to long-distance running, compared with the black-born Bolt, he doesn't dare to speak loudly.

"Are you from the Neon Country?"

On the semi-final field, during the warm-up, Bolt looked at Zhou Guyuan on the runway next to him and suddenly asked.

Truth be told, Bolt has improved his family's conditions by running, but the sixteen-year-old is still curious about the world.

I used to listen to the teacher, and the yellow people in Asia were basically short, but Zhou Guyuan next to him completely changed his mind and broke his three views.

It's very rare that he can endure to ask until now.

"No, I'm Chinese!"

Zhou Guyuan shook his head, pointed to the five-star red flag on his chest, and said with great pride.

The other party shook his head, indicating that he did not know.

Almost instantly, Zhou Guyuan had no desire to communicate with the other party.

He forgot that Bolt was a complete scumbag, and it was already very good to know about Neon Country.

And he Zhou Guyuan deliberately spoke Mandarin, and the other party didn't understand it, which was normal.

If you ask the other party to distinguish the American imperial flag, the other party will definitely understand, but if you let the other party recognize the five-star red flag, it will really embarrass the other party.

There was no explanation in English, and that was because the referee had already spoken and it was time to get ready to start.

Compared with the preliminary round and the preliminary round, Zhou Guyuan improved slightly in the semifinals, running a good time of 21.05 seconds.

In international athletics, the yellow race is the weakness of Rutz.

Look at the 200-meter preliminary race, as well as Liu Yang and others, there are also three athletes from the Neon Country, and one from the Philippine Monkey is also here.

But in the semifinals, except for him Zhou Guyuan, other athletes fell behind.

On July 22nd, the first to compete in the final was the 200-meter, and the 100-meter trapeze battle was the last to enter the school

Competing on the same stage with Bolt again, Zhou Guyuan had no waves in his heart.

What about the flying man? What about the lightning? It's all in the future, and he has to be in the present.

“Onyourmarks!”

Not familiar Mandarin, but Zhou Guyuan has no hearing impairment.

Before coming, in the past half a year, Coach Du Bingkang shouted in English every time he tested.

Completely simulating the world athletics competition, meticulously, without any discount.

In terms of starting reaction time, Zhou Guyuan is also extremely good, but he can't remember the cornering technique, and there is still a little gap with Bolt.

The gap is very noticeable once you get into the straights.

Fortunately, the speed of his straights added up, so by the 150m position, he was already in third position.

Usain Bolt led the way, and the second place was an athlete from the US imperialists.

Zhou Guyuan opened his mouth and breathed heavily, his arms swinging very loudly and very quickly.

His current idea is to surpass the second place, as long as he surpasses the second place, then there is a breakthrough.

It is impossible for a person to become a fat man in one bite, in fact, he can stand on the final field, which is already a huge breakthrough.

However, at the end, Zhou Guyuan was still in the third position and took a bronze medal home.

The gold medal went to Usain Bolt, who ran a good time of 20.5 seconds, making him the youngest ever World Youth Championship champion.

When accepting the award, Bolt also showed a mouthful of white teeth at Zhou Guyuan, as if showing off the medal in his hand.

However, Zhou Guyuan ignored the other party, accepted the award with a flat face, and then continued to participate in the next 100-meter trapeze battle.

There is no opponent in the 100-meter trapeze battle, athletes such as world champions do not appear in this arena, and the participants are all children under the age of 19, and the fastest time is only 10.16 seconds.

Therefore, Zhou Guyuan easily won the championship with a time of 10.05 seconds, which was a full 0.1 second faster than his record at the National Games last year.

When Bolt saw this, both eyes widened.
