Chapter 942: Krypton Changing the World
Double windows block out the sound of the waves, and heavy curtains block the daylight, making the room quiet and dim, perfect for resting and recuperating.
Opening his eyes, Atletico rolled over and sat up from the big bed, reached out to light the bed lamp and roof lamp, swept his eyes over the empty room, got out of bed and walked into the bathroom, and began his daily cleaning.
This is actually his long private room, and sometimes the family is tired of living in it and will come here for the night. The hotel is clean and the rooms are facing east, which is a good place to enjoy the sunrise over the sea. In addition, this is also his "marathon preparation room", the hotel is near the Luma starting point international convention and exhibition center, and it is the most convenient to walk a few steps to the event check-in area.
Check-in is a necessary part of the track and field competition before the start of the competition and is used to verify the identity of athletes, check clothing and running shoes, assign bib numbers and tracks, and draw blood and urine. There are tens of thousands of marathon participants, so they have to greatly simplify the check-in process, only focus on professional athletes, and ask little or even ignore amateur runners, which provides preconditions for the phenomenon of substitute running and rubbing running.
Because there were people killed in the previous half race, and there was a substitute runner among them, the heron horse had to sacrifice the "strictest inspection in history", and it remains to be seen how effective it will be.
Of course, these have little to do with Atletico Madrid, and the check-in he has to participate in is even stricter than that.
As the best amateur performance holder in China, "Fifth Atletico Madrid" has long entered the sight of the sports department, although for other reasons did not participate in the National Games, Asian Games and other events, but it is also a real registered athlete of the Athletics Association, and needs to go through the professional channel for check-in. Otherwise, his results would not have been officially recognized by the event, nor would he have been endorsed by the latter and the Association of Athletics Federations, and would have been notified to the IAAF as an official record.
After taking a shower and walking out of the bathroom, Ma Atletico in a bathrobe walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, pulled open the curtains, and the bright sky suddenly filled the room.
With his hands parting the balcony door, the sound of rolling waves went straight to his cochlea, but he didn't care about it, staring straight at the sea and sky in the east.
Today's weather is good, there are no thick clouds and fog to obscure the view, and you can see the islands and the sea on the opposite shore as far as the eye can see. The sky was covered with all kinds of blue, and in the blink of an eye, it was mixed with a wisp of red, but it was the morning sun that would come out of the red glow first.
After all, he has seen this scene many times before, but there are still some small fluctuations in his heart, and he turned around and went back to the room.
Coming to the balcony again, Atletico Madrid has an extra mobile phone in his hand, front and back dual cameras, rounded screens, and slender home buttons, which are the upcoming Bee 7A.
After a short delay, the sun had already risen, revealing a small red face, slowly rising, and then it was recorded by Atletico Madrid holding up his mobile phone.
After a while, the sun completely jumped out of the sea, instantly changing from a red sun to a majestic rising sun, sprinkling thousands of golden lights, illuminating the eastern sky and sea, giving people a brilliant and splendid feeling that they could not look directly.
"Stop looking!
looked back at where the voice came from, but it was Tang Jiayi who was pushing the dining cart towards him.
The food on the food truck is hearty, with thinly sliced steaks with an enticing sheen, barley yogurt with strawberry slices floating on it, milk cereal with a sweet aroma, and a plate of colorful flower salad. Even people who have lost weight to anorexia nervosa can eat three or five more bites when they see this.
Obviously, these good-looking, low-calorie delicacies are not for Atletico Madrid, but for Tang Jiayi's own breakfast. This can be seen from the fact that she put the plates and pots containing the food on the table in front of her, but only put a bowl of thick porridge in front of her husband.
This porridge is not an ordinary rice porridge, but a compound nutritional porridge designed by Atletico Madrid in conjunction with nutritionists and sports experts. It is rich in a large amount of sugars and an appropriate amount of fatty acids, amino acids, salts, and other essential elements, with sufficient calories and rich taste.
After breakfast was cleaned up, Atletico stayed in the room for a while, and then left the hotel with his equipment bag under the reluctant gaze of his wife, and walked towards the crowded convention and exhibition center.
He was followed by three long-legged black men, but they were his personal rabbits.
Rabbits are marathon runners' nickname for pacemakers, and they play the role of chasing the former, whether it is a good hound with long legs and a few meters at a distance, or a big stupid turtle with heavy hands and feet and a sigh of surprise.
The marathon course is 42 kilometers long, and in order to reduce the waste of energy and extend the endurance, it is necessary to carefully control the running speed and maintain a constant speed as much as possible. Normally, runners will compile a pacechart according to their athletic performance, physical condition, track conditions, and goals, and divide the 42 course management into small sections, and stipulate the completion time for each kilometer, which is the pace. If it can be strictly implemented, it can ensure stable results, and even exceed the normal performance.
However, after all, people are group animals, and in a queue of 100 or 10 million people, it is easy to be affected by the people around them, and then lose their pace, resulting in a premature loss of physical strength.
In order to ensure that they are not affected, experienced professional players will equip themselves with personal rabbits, one leader and wind shield, and two people accompany them to help block people, which can effectively improve their performance.
Dennis Kimetto's men's marathon world record of 2:02:57 and Paula Radcliffe's women's record of 2:15:25 are all credited to the personal bunny.
In addition to private rabbits, the organizers of large-scale events will also arrange official rabbits to serve the public, and the rabbit group composed of semi-professional runners is tied with balloons, ribbons, and knife flags, mixed in the crowd with their own rhythm, encouragement, and time, which can effectively enhance the enthusiasm and enthusiasm of ordinary runners, and many runners are driven by 500 rabbits (5 hours to finish) and 600 rabbits to complete the first full marathon in their lives.
Theoretically, the most suitable pace plan for a marathon should be a constant pace throughout the marathon, without additional acceleration and deceleration. However, this is difficult to do, the road fluctuations and wind direction will affect the speed, the second half of the physical strength decline speed declines, and the early low speed is also easy to be "swallowed" by the large army, but the hands are tied. Therefore, Atletico's plan is to be fast and slow, accelerate in the early stage to get rid of the big troops, mix into the first group to run most of the part, use the advantage of being familiar with the terrain to gradually accumulate a lead, and finally complete their record-breaking plan.
These three black players are all masters of the 210 grade, and their historical results are better than those of Atletico Madrid, but for the sake of the face of large commissions, they choose to serve Atletico Madrid.
After the check-in was completed, Atletico Madrid, dressed in sports equipment, appeared on the roundabout road as a track, waiting for the starting gun to sound.
The four of them are dressed in exactly the same outfit, with short race sleeves hanging from the bib number, sports leggings, sports quick-drying socks, custom running shoes, fanny packs, and a pair of sunglasses with a sleek sci-fi look.
The waist pack contains energy gel to replenish stamina and moisture, and the sunglasses are Bee Holo1 holographic glasses customized for this event. In addition to fitting the face shape and blocking the wind and light, it also has the function of showing the route and reminding the pace, which is a killer feature prepared by Atletico Madrid for this competition. Compared with the usual pace slips and electronic watches, holographic glasses are undoubtedly much more convenient and intuitive, allowing them to concentrate and run without distractions.
These glasses are both a necessity for improving performance and a selfish part of Atletico's selfishness. If he finally gets his wish, breaking the world record that has been in the dust for more than two years, and suddenly improves by three minutes, his deeds will inevitably be carefully studied under the big picture. At that time, Holo1 will just take advantage of the trend to enter the eyes of professionals and the public, and gain free exposure of the sky.
There are many athletes who wear sunglasses in marathons, but very few can wear smart glasses. If Holo1's ability to improve scores is recognized, it will inevitably bring topics and controversy to the international sports world, just to distract the attention of betting on yourself, and finally make a wave of professional customized money, which is completely blood-worthy.
No matter what Atletico had in mind, the clock passed as usual, and it was soon 8 a.m. The starting gun sounded on time, and the crowd on the track gradually started to move, and gradually accelerated across the starting line in turn.
At a pace of 200, you need to run 2 minutes and 50 seconds per kilometer, which translates to 5.87 meters per second. In front of the excited crowd, this speed is not too fast, many runners are crazy, and when they are excited, they can't help but run happily. Fortunately, the organizers have arranged zonal positions, and the professional players of Atletico Madrid and others are at the front of the team, and as long as they maintain a high speed for a period of time, they can get rid of the large troops behind.
As planned, Atletico and his private rabbit formed a black arrow, slowly moving towards the front of the first group, and achieved their goal after the first turning point, and then, unsurprisingly, attracted the sidelines, exclusion and suppression of the Ethiopian and Kenyan regiments.
As a gold standard event certified by the IAAF, the Heron Horse North Marathon must open its doors to outsiders, and a certain number of powerful foreign athletes must be invited to participate in the competition every year.
Different cities have different road and wind conditions, and the service capabilities of spectators and organizers are also different, for top athletes, it is enough to participate in the six marathons of Boston, New York, Chicago, Berlin, London, and Tokyo, and there is no need to waste time and energy on other tracks.
And then these gold races will inevitably become a platform for some people to get prize money, many black athletes although they compete in private names, but there is the same agent behind them, they will implement the "more than one" tactics in the competition, in addition to the rabbit who leads the wind escort in the front, there will be someone who will stumble on the opponent, no need to do much, as long as you get in front of you to speed up and slow with a rhythm, it can interfere with your pace, and then affect the final result.
Solo runners are the most susceptible to rhythm masters, but multi-player teams block out most distractions. Atletico Madrid's three private rabbits did not care about the friendship of their compatriots at all, and protected his left and right fronts well, leading him steadily forward all the way.
The marathon is a protracted battle that lasts for several hours, interference or something is just icing on the cake, and in the end it depends on their own strength, the name of "Fifth Atletico Madrid", they have long heard of it, and when they saw that the interference was ineffective, they also collected their minds and concentrated on running.
Following behind their own rabbits, Atletico ran in order, with a meandering track pattern in front of them, on which were shiny footprint icons, calculated from the current terrain, road conditions and paceometer. All he had to do was put aside his thoughts and stumble, and stepped on it with his long legs. If you run like this step by step, you will eventually get the desired victory after more than 30,000 steps.
Running non-stop for two hours like this is naturally very boring, but for Atletico Madrid, who are accustomed to "semi-automatic hang-up", it is not a big problem. If it weren't for the fact that there were other people around, there would always be uncertainties, and he was worried that E7U wouldn't be able to react, so he even wanted to turn on the fully automatic hang-up mode and run all the way to the finish line with the most economical and stable robot mode.
Fortunately, the semi-automatic mode is not bad, Atletico's body has long been accustomed to mechanical and regular repetition, as long as you maintain the rhythm that suits you best, you can greatly slow down the accumulation of fatigue and avoid the rapid deterioration of the slowdown in the second half. Before the team passed through the gate for the first time, Atletico and the last private rabbit squeezed into the front of the leading group, and when the team turned back and passed the school gate for the second time, he stood out in the cheers of the younger siblings and began to lead the field for the first time.
Seeing this scene, the black players around him were all confused, which is not conventional!
According to the usual record, Atletico Madrid's speed will also drop significantly at this stage, barely mixing in the leading group, and finally finishing fifth. But now Atletico Madrid has also slowed down, but it has not dropped significantly, the relative speed between each other is increasing, and the distance is also widening.
Although there were also players who fought hard to catch up and once overtook Atletico Madrid, they eventually fell behind because of too much physical exertion, and were re-taken away by Atletico Madrid.
Seeing the challenger collapse in the sand, the TV commentary and the audience at the scene were excited, and the voices of "Come on, come on, Atletico Madrid, come on!" became louder and more neat, and the opponent did not disappoint them, and was the first to hit the line to complete the game.
The crowd around the finish line erupted in enthusiastic cheers, and when the commentators shouted "1 hour, 59 minutes and 59 seconds! Atletico Madrid set a record! It's a miracle!" The cheers rose several times so dramatically that they could be heard even from a few streets away.
The world of the marathon is almost divided between Kenya and Ethiopia, and there are only three Asians in the world's top 100, all of whom are from the eastern island countries. Atletico have only been to 113 places in the world before, and this time it is a complete miracle, a miracle that belongs to Kryptonite warriors and modern technology.
Of course, if he can pass the doping test successfully, otherwise it will be a world-class joke of miracles.
