Chapter 114: Finish the work
The days of opening and hanging always pass quickly, and after repetition too much, it is so boring and boring.
With the help and training of Coach Chen, Qin Ke and Luo Haili,
Gu Kun not only thoroughly mastered the rules of the game, adjusted muscle memory,
The rhythm of even controlling the swimming speed has also been greatly improved.
Now he basically wants to swim as fast as he wants, and he can roughly estimate how much time it took him to swim through the race without looking at the timer, and the error in the 200-meter event will not exceed five seconds.
In this way, winning the qualification for each item is as dull as finding something.
Just one week of test matches, and that's it.
This week, the only thing that bothered Gu Kun was how he dealt with other people's speculation about his "awesome" reasons.
And Luo Haili's behavior that day really set a bad precedent, resulting in this week, every time Gu Kun achieved a score far beyond the A standard, a female team member from a foreign school ran over, pretending to be a scientific researcher, touching him around, and feeling the effect of the underwater smoothness of the skin on the resistance.
Anyway, when Luo Haili touched it, Gu Kun didn't turn his face, so when other female college athletes came to touch it and touched it with the attitude of medical research, it was not easy for him to turn his face, right?
Especially those girls, when they were studying, they looked at their noses and noses, and they didn't show the slightest inappropriate expression, what else could Gu Kun do?
He could only endure it to prove his innocence and did not hang up.
Now, it's finally time to get out.
Sunday, the 26th of January, is also the last day of the Test Match.
At 2 p.m., Gu Kun participated in his last race, the 1500-meter freestyle qualifying event.
Coach Chen and all his teammates watched from the stands on the sidelines.
Because there is no second person in the Jiaotong team to apply for this project, everyone's endurance can't swim 1500, and for them, the qualifying round is over.
Although the results have not yet come out, everyone is not excited, but numb.
There is no way, in the past six days, Gu Kun has created too many hanging results, can the bystanders not be numb.
"Yes, it must be far ahead of the Olympic A standard, which is more than half a lap above the second place. When there were still a few minutes left before the end of the game, Coach Chen sat in the stands, crossed Erlang's legs, and said in high spirits.
"I just don't know if it will be the same as Xiao Lu's sparring last year, and finally exceed a circle. Luo Haili sat next to the coach, expectantly fantasizing.
"It's unlikely, after all, Xiao Lu is a person who hasn't reached the B standard, and that time is a special situation, Xiao Lu usually doesn't practice freestyle. Hu Biao, who ranked second today, is also the gold medal in the National Universiade last year, how can Xiao Lu be compared?"
Because Lu Lu had already rolled up the bunk and sat in the sleeper back to school in advance, Qin Ke didn't have to worry about the feelings of the absentees when he said this.
Luo Haili was not convinced, and said: "But it's not necessarily, Xiao Gu's physical strength distribution rhythm this week, how much progress has been made, you and I are obvious to all." And at the beginning, it was 800 meters, and I swam casually, but today this is the official 1500 meters, and the gap between other people's physical strength will only get bigger and bigger in the later stage. ”
"Don't fight, just see. It is already an exaggeration to be able to exceed half a pool of gold medals in the domestic Universiade. Coach Chen stopped the argument between the two proud disciples.
The last two minutes passed quickly.
It's a pity that Gu Kun, a pervert, has a way to gradually release the stimulation source of the renovation of tricks, so that the numb person can also feel it again.
With the last lap and a half left, Gu Kun accelerated sharply again.
At this speed, it is not at all like the final sprint of the 1500m, but closer to the sprint of the 400m race.
"Waller, how much physical potential does he have?" Coach Chen's pupils widened a little, and everyone stood up from the stands.
It surpassed the gold medals of last year's National Universiade by 70 meters, 80 meters, and 90 meters......
"Is it really more than one lap?"
Seeing the last moment, Gu Kun touched the wall in advance, and Hu Biao, who was in second place, touched the wall one or two seconds slower than him.
But the key is that Hu Biao still has to turn around and kick the pool, and there is still a lap!
1500 meters, the gold medal of the domestic Universiade, can generally swim a little more than 15 and a half minutes, and over the years, more than 15 minutes and 40 seconds, more than 50 seconds are very common. Because this kind of project is very long, it is normal for the same person to play well or badly, and the difference of half a minute.
Only in a very rare year has there been a genius, and the gold medal at the domestic Universiade can break through the 15-and-a-half-point mark.
At next year's Atlanta Olympics, the A standard for the 1500-meter freestyle is 15 and a half minutes, and the A standard for this year's World Universiade in Fukuoka is 16 minutes.
"Hu Biao's gold medal result in the domestic Universiade last year was 15 minutes and 36 seconds, and today because it is a qualifying round, it is estimated that it is not as hard as last year's final, but 15 minutes and 50 seconds is absolutely stable, and he is aiming at the World Universiade A standard...... Gu Kun surpassed Hu Biao by one lap, how much would that be? At least breaking the 15-point mark is ironclad, right?"
In the short time before the results were displayed on the electronic screen, Coach Chen couldn't help but instinctively flash a round of calculations in his heart. In the 90s, the equipment was still relatively backward, and there was no LED screen by the pool to directly display the results, so the audience could not see the results at the first moment.
The master of the 1500-meter freestyle swims a little more than a minute on average, and the sprint lap can be a little faster, about 50 seconds.
If that's the case, it's not ......
"Lane 8, 14 minutes 51 seconds!"
When the results were finally displayed on the big screen, everyone was stunned.
"This is a result that exceeds the Olympic record! The previous Olympic record was 14 minutes and 54 seconds!" Coach Chen was the first to react, he did this business, so he knew all the historical results.
Gu Kun has tested so many events in the past few days, and this is the first time he has swam faster than the Olympic record.
"Isn't that a world record?" Qin Ke and Luo Haili were also very excited and confirmed to their coaches.
"Unfortunately, not yet. Coach Chen was asked by his disciple, calmed down a little, and his tone was a little regretful, "The Olympic record is not a world record, the latest world record is set at the World Championships in 90, 14 minutes and 47 seconds, 7 seconds faster than the Olympic record."
If Kun makes this result in the Olympics today, it will be glorious, and it will be an Olympic record. It's a pity that it's just an ordinary qualifying tournament now, since he didn't break the world record in the World Championships, and it's not the Olympics, so he is a little embarrassed and can't go down in history. ”
Everyone was a little sorry, but it quickly came back to life.
"What are you afraid of, it means that his strength is there. Moreover, Xiao Gu's previous achievements were all supported by amazing physical fitness, and now after just a week of professional training, he has improved so much, and he will definitely break the world record in the future. We'll see you again in Fukuoka during the summer vacation!" said captain Qin Ke, who was quite good at boosting morale.
This side is jubilant, and on the other side, Gu Kun has also gone ashore and wrapped a bath towel to dry.
He also knows his results and is happy with his ability to control the tempo.
It's also good to let everyone be a little mentally prepared for his "progress" in advance.
In this way, everyone will adapt to the character of "Gu Kun is a pervert who can break the world record".
And the reason why he chose 1500 meters to break the record was also deliberate.
First, in the long-distance event, the time between the rankings is relatively long, and the accuracy requirements for the rhythm are relatively low.
Second, the yellow race has always been inferior to the white and black people in terms of speed and explosiveness, and it would be a bit unscientific to break the world record in the short sprint event as soon as they came up.
However, because of their light bodies and high agility, yellow people can often recover a little disadvantage in endurance events, which is also the main direction of the yellow race in the Olympic gold medal and breaking the world record in the sprint event.
Historically, at next year's Atlanta Olympics, Huaxia relied on Wang Junxia's 5,000-meter run to win the first gold medal in the Olympic running event. Later, in the swimming category, in the 2010s, Sun Yang also relied on the 1500-meter endurance race, won many gold medals, and also set a world record.
Gu Kun, like Sun Yang, is from Donghai Province, so he feels that he is the safest and most scientific to show his shining point in endurance swimming. Even if he wins a lot of gold medals in the future, the Chinese audience will help him lie with the ancient stereotype of "the more people are better at water".
"Xiao Gu, being able to help you succeed is the greatest achievement of my career. Coach Chen hugged Gu Kun heartily and patted him on the back a few times.
"The backstroke 1,200 meters, the breaststroke 1,200 meters, and the freestyle 51,2400 and 1,050 are a total of 9 qualifications. What a time to witness miracles. Luo Haili followed the coach, handing Gu Kun a towel and admiring him wholeheartedly.
Captain Qin Ke was also congratulating on the side, but he spoke more constructively: "If you are willing to practice the technical movements of butterfly stroke a little, even if butterfly stroke is not good in the future, at the Olympic Games next year, maybe you can report more medley events." With the advantages of your other three positions, it may not be hopeless to pull back the disadvantage of butterfly. ”
"Let's talk about it then, isn't nine qualifications enough? Gu Kun smiled at Qin Ke's suggestion, he knew that Captain Qin was still very righteous, and he really thought about the team.
This friend can be made deep in the future.
"Yes, you're only 18 years old, and you'll only be 19 years old at next year's Olympics, what's the hurry. It's not like I'm all 22 years old. Qin Ke laughed to himself, realizing that he had indeed made too hasty suggestions.
Gu Kun suggested: "Let's go, it's finally over, today I invite everyone to eat barbecue, a little bit of two bottles." I can thank you all for your help and care these days. ”
After all, college students will not be as strict as professional athletes, for the sake of Gu Kun's results, Coach Chen did not stop it, but acquiesced to all this.
"Everyone is allowed to play today, but don't drink too much and can't get up tomorrow and delay the train back to Hujiang!"
