Yi Dun, I won't say anything else, track and field, I don't think anyone on this earth has more say than you. ”

"Since you think you can participate in the race walking event, and you still participate in the two events together, then I won't stop you."

"In the near future, I will have a selection competition below, and three athletes will be selected to participate in the next World Championships in the 20km and 50km race walks, so you will stay at the training base recently."

Director Xu didn't dare to delay this matter, after all, there was not much left before the registration deadline.

Of course, he could name Yi Dun to participate in these two race walking events, but this means that some people will be deprived of the original World Championships race walking event.

To be denied the World Championships alive is extremely cruel for any athlete.

Perhaps the most memorable moment of their careers was just one World Championship.

Even if they don't have a gold medal, even if they don't have a medal, just participating in the World Championships can make their careers complete.

This is the World Championships, the highest stage outside of the Olympic Games, and no one wants to miss this kind of event.

Director Xu naturally doesn't want to do such a cruel thing, so the selection competition is quite necessary, the athletes rely on their strength to speak, if Yi Dun qualifies for the competition in the trials, in that case, no one can find fault.

"By the way, Yi Dun, do you need to train race walking these days? As far as I know, you don't think you've ever been exposed to race walking before, right? Director Xu asked curiously.

In his impression, Yi Dun seems to have never been exposed to race walking, let alone competed, as if he had never trained.

"Director Xu, you are underestimating people, I also practice some race walking events on weekdays, don't worry, I will definitely not let you down when you are in the trials." Yi Dun said with confidence.

The difference between race walking and running is not very big, both are racing events, the fundamental difference is that the feet must be in alternate contact with the ground during race walking, and there can be no vacancy phase.

To describe people walking fast, they often use the idiom of walking like flying, and to describe the speed of race walkers, they must not use walking like flying, because once they "fly", it will be a foul.

In addition to this, there is no obvious difference between race walking and long-distance running, which is why Eden is so confident in race walking.

However, if there is a difference, there must still be a difference, otherwise, race walking will not be the advantage of Chinese sports, and long-distance running is not the advantage of Chinese track and field.

Women's long-distance running can be regarded as half an advantage event, and men's long-distance running must have nothing to do with advantages before the emergence of Eden.

"I've always had faith in you, and even if you tell me today that you're going to do the high jump, long jump or triple jump, I'm confident that you can win the championship and break the world record by a distance."

"I've lived most of my life, and I didn't believe in any genius before, I only believed in sweat, but in you, I have to believe that there is really a genius in this world, and there are really miracles." Director Xu was full of emotion, in a short period of time, the growth rate of Yidun has actually far exceeded his estimates.

Once upon a time, Director Xu looked down on Yi Dun, just to see Yi Dun's talent in the decathlon event, and felt that it was possible to train Yi Dun to become Qi Haifeng's successor.

Who would have thought, Yi Dun gave him an incomparably huge surprise at that time, and then the surprise became bigger and bigger, if nothing else, in the next World Championships, Yi Dun will definitely be able to create an incredible surprise.

"I'm a little embarrassed to praise it."

"Director Xu, continue to have confidence in me, at least in the next ten years, Chinese track and field will inevitably be the first in the world, the first without suspense, as long as there is one day with me, Chinese track and field will definitely be the strongest in the world."

Director Xu's face was full of red light, "Well said, it seems that in the next ten years, I will be at ease." ”

"However, it doesn't matter if you are strong alone, we still need to train more reserves to strive to make Chinese track and field continue to be strong."

……

A week later, Yi Dun and a group of athletes from the national race walking team appeared in the stadium, and all the leaders of the track and field center came to watch the race walking trials.

In fact, if it weren't for Yi Dun to participate in the race walking event, there would be no need for this selection tournament at all, mainly because there are only a few national team members, and they generally know what their strength is.

But now that Yi Dun is here, this selection competition is very necessary, and it will definitely score a high or low score to determine who will participate in the end.

There are a total of ten people in the race walking national team, five people in each of the two events, and if you count Yi Dun, there are 11 people in total.

Some of these people are known to Yi Dun, and at the last World Championships, Yi Dun got along well with some of them.

For example, Wang Hao and Wang Zhen, Yi Dun is quite impressed.

"Brother Dun, at the last World Championships, you said that you would participate in race walking at this World Championships, but I didn't expect you to really come."

"Great, these two race walking gold medals are ours, our brothers are out, how can there be no reason why we can't win the gold medal."

"Now let's think about whether Dungo can break the world record by then."

"Do you still need to think about it? In the next challenge, Dungo will definitely be able to easily break the world record. ”

The mentality of everyone in the national team is still very good, and they do not have any negative emotions because of Yi Dun's Cheng Biting Gold halfway.

As top athletes, they know better than anyone that athletes rely on their strength to speak, and if their own strength is not good, they will not be able to qualify, which is a matter of course.

"Because of the hasty preparation for the competition, we will have a selection race in this stadium, and we will come 20 kilometers first."

"Yi Dun, Wang Zhen, Wang Hao, Chu Yafei, ......, the six of you are out of the ranks!" The supervisor of the race walking team called out the names of the six people and signaled them to come out.

These six people are the candidates for the next 20km race walk, and if they can get the top three, they will be able to represent China in the next World Championships.

Yi Dun was a little curious, it stands to reason that this selection competition should actually be more formal, but this competition is really too simple at the moment.

The reason why the competition is not too formal is completely Director Xu's idea.

In Director Xu's view, this competition is not formal in fact, it is meaningless, if Yi Dun's results are similar to other players, there is no obvious advantage, then Yi Dun will be completely meaningless to participate in the World Championships race walking event.

With a gap of three seconds, Director Xu is ready to let Yi Dun give up the race walking event at the World Championships, after all, the physical consumption of race walking is still quite terrifying, and Director Xu definitely does not want Yi Dun's other projects to be affected.

And if Yi Dun does not have a clear advantage in the competition with the national team players, it means that Yi Dun does not have much certainty of winning the championship when he goes to the World Championships.

Therefore, this game is not too formal, you only need to know the strength of Yi Dun in general.

……

As the whistle sounded from the director of the race walking team, six competitors "walked" on the starting line at the same time.

Yi Dun has practiced race walking, although he didn't spend too much effort, but he still knows very well what he needs to pay attention to in race walking.

A total of 20,000 meters of race, after the first two kilometers, the six players have been divided into two echelons, Yi Dun, Wang Zhen, Wang Hao and Chu Yafei four people ranked in the first echelon, the remaining two national team players are obviously weaker, this time they are likely to not be qualified for the competition.

In other words, three competition places will be generated among the four people in the first echelon.
