Chapter 296: Amazing Four Hundred Meters
After arriving at the training ground, Song Tao muttered to several athletes.
"Coach, it's not a joke, is it really going to run 1500 meters?"
"Yes, it seems unlikely, his decathlon 1500m performance doesn't seem to be outstanding."
"Of course, among the all-rounders, his 1500 results are outstanding, but compared to our special players, it is still not enough."
Several 1500m athletes felt that Eden's participation in this event was a bit unreliable.
Song Tao directly said to a few people with a serious face: "Don't talk nonsense, look ignorant. ”
"The 1500m event in the decathlon is the last event, and the all-around athletes are already exhausted after the first nine events, so the results are almost normal, and if they come up and run the 1500m directly, the results will definitely be much better."
"And, you're all athletes, who is Eden? You boys won't know about his perversion? ”
"Before the World Championships, who dared to say that Yi Dun could win the championship in the long-distance running event, I'm afraid some people are still waiting in their hearts to see the excitement, but in the end? He won four gold medals in long-distance running at the World Championships and won gold medals in all long-distance running events at the World Championships! ”
"Now Eden is excited to surprise us in the 1500m event? You don't want to be inferior in the future, do you? Watching other teams win gold at the World Series, don't you blush? Song Tao had a tone of hatred that iron could not become steel.
He didn't know if the athletes under his command were eye-catching with other track and field teams winning gold, but he was extremely red-eyed anyway.
"Remember, let's see the situation later, if Yi Dun really doesn't perform well, don't win too hard, so as not to break Yi Dun's self-confidence in the 1500m event."
"Try to take it easy." Song Tao instructed again.
……
After a while, Director Xu took Yi Dun to the training ground.
The training base is not big, and everyone in the base immediately knows that there are already many people at the training ground, all of whom are ready to see Yi Dun's performance in the 1500-meter event.
They are extremely curious, it's not that Yi Dun has not tested the 1500 meters, and when they practiced the decathlon before, they had also seen the results of Yi Dun 1500, which was not particularly outstanding.
Today I suddenly wanted to train 1500 meters with great fanfare, and I didn't know what was going on.
……
Yi Dun saw that there were more and more onlookers at the training ground, and he couldn't help but smile bitterly.
He really didn't think about a big test, he just wanted to try what kind of 1500-meter result he could run directly at the speed of the 100-meter sprint at the beginning.
If the results are very good and can be good enough to win the gold, then Yi Dun is equivalent to winning a gold medal for nothing, and there is no need to sign up for this event.
Theoretically, a maximum of 11 gold medals can be won in the decathlon......
Ten events are the same, plus the gold medal in the decathlon total score, this is 11 gold medals, if Yi Dun can reach the top of all ten events in the future, then only participate in one decathlon event can win 11 gold medals.
……
"Yi Dun, fellow, I've been trying to talk to you for a good time, but I haven't found a chance."
"My hometown is Zaozhuang, not far from Songyang." When Song Tao saw Yi Dun, he immediately walked up quickly and greeted Yi Dun.
Yi Dun also knew that the thin middle-aged man in front of him was Coach Song Tao, so he hurriedly said hello.
"Hello Coach Song, I'm in trouble with Coach Song today."
"Ahem, what's not troublesome, it's all for the glory of the country, and we still have a relationship with our fellow countrymen, isn't it out of sight to say trouble?" Song Tao said with a laugh.
"Boys, come over quickly, first meet your new teammate Yi Dun, and then we will be a family."
Yi Dun is full of black lines, and he didn't say that he wanted to enter the 1500-meter track and field team?
The only thing Yi Dun wants to do today is to do a test, but he has no intention of joining the team.
However, seeing Coach Song's enthusiastic appearance, Yi Dun was not easy to remind.
"Coach Song, look at you like that, you look like an old bachelor who married a daughter-in-law."
"That's it, Old Song, can you be a little more reserved!" In the crowd of onlookers, there were many national team coaches who were familiar with Song Tao, and they couldn't help but laugh loudly at this moment.
When Song Tao was said this, his old face immediately turned red.
"What is reserved or not reserved, you people are jealous, anyway, it is impossible for Yi Dun to train under you."
It's really impossible for Eden to train under these coaches, because these are the coaches of the women's team.
"Alright, stop messing around."
"This is a serious matter, hurry up and start the test to see how Yi Dun performs, and we can make plans for the next step." Director Xu spoke directly, which made the scene quiet.
"Yes, Director Xu, the electronic timers have been put in place, I will act as the starter, and you will be the referee."
"Yi Dun, come on!" Song Tao finally said to Yi Dun again.
……
Under the attention of dozens of people at the scene, the 1500-meter test officially began.
Not much different from the 5,000-meter event, this 1500-meter event is also regardless of the track, and several runners are in the arc starting line, waiting for the gunfire of the starter Song Tao.
In recent years, some experts have begun to put forward the idea of parting lanes for the 1500m project.
In fact, in the first track races, even the 100-meter events were not separated, and later some sprint events began to use the method of lane separation.
I have to say that the lane separation run is actually more reflective of the real level of the athletes, and many times it is difficult for the athletes to run their best results without lane separation.
With the improvement of athletes' skills, the current 1500m event has gradually transformed from the original endurance event to the speed event.
Especially at the beginning of the race, athletes start much faster than in a long-distance event such as the 5,000 meters.
As the competition on the course becomes more and more fierce, crowding and collisions are now inevitable, and runners who could have run for 3 minutes and 50 seconds may end up running for only 4 minutes.
In fact, the supreme pursuit of sports competition is not to win medals, but to break the limits of human beings, and this way of running is undoubtedly an obstacle to breaking the limits.
Therefore, there is a certain reason for experts to propose that the 1500-meter project should not be separated.
However, if the things proposed by the experts are to be really implemented, it will take at least ten or eight years, and it is difficult to say whether Yi Dun's career can wait until that day.
……
"Bang!" The starting gun sounded.
Six players rushed out.
It is no exaggeration to say that looking at the athlete's wild running posture, those who don't know it think they are running 400 meters.
Today's 1500m event is such a feature, with all the competitors sprinting at the beginning of the race, all of them sprinting at the speed of 100 meters.
However, due to the fact that each athlete is different, the duration of the sprint must be different.
Eden's speed is not considered a strong event, but other competitors do not say that the 100-meter speed is really much faster than Eden.
"Edon, come on!"
"Brother Dun, rush!"
The crowd of onlookers cheered for Eden.
Eden on the track clearly felt the difference from the decathlon 1500m.
When I ran the decathlon 1500 meters, because it was the last event of the two-day schedule, everyone was tired enough, even if they knew that they had to start rushing, but they couldn't rush up.
EDUN easily took the lead.
But now the special runners around are all fierce dragons and tigers, and after the start, Yi Dun was mixed in the crowd and failed to get the leading position.
But it doesn't matter, Yi Dun knows that his endurance is strong, and although he can't get the lead now, he will definitely get the lead when the momentum of the other runners sprints fades.
After a distance of less than 200 meters, the runners were already showing some signs of weakness, and their speed gradually slowed down.
Just as the track entered the straight, Eden was like a wild horse on the loose, overtaking two people in succession and rushing to the leading position.
"Damn, Brother Dun'er's endurance is strong enough, he rushed 200 meters, and he still has the strength to sprint."
"Brother Dun got the leading position, I don't know how long it will last, after all, 1500 meters is not the same as 5,000 meters and 10,000 meters, I'm afraid that after Brother Dun finishes the sprint, it won't work directly."
"Shhh After everyone on the sidelines saw Yi Dun get the leading position, they talked about it.
The leading position in the 1500m event is still quite important, otherwise the competitors will not be rushing at the beginning.
Now that Eden has successfully taken the lead, the results of the race are not to mention for the time being, at least this is a good sign.
……
Yi Dun, who got the leading position, was very happy.
In this test, he mainly tested how long he could last at a surging speed.
The longer you persevere, the greater your advantage in the 1500m event.
In the blink of an eye, a lap of 400 meters has been completed.
The crowd at the scene was already shocked, Yi Dun's distance of 400 meters did not slow down at all, and the whole process sprinted at the speed of the start!
There are many top domestic sprinters on the scene, and they can naturally see at a glance whether Yi Dun has slowed down or not.
At least from the naked eye, the speed of the four hundred meters in front of Yi Dun is quite average, and there is no obvious slowdown.
"Good guy, Brother Dun is really not human, did anyone notice that he ran 400 meters just now?"
"I didn't pay attention, it's less than 50 seconds anyway, good guy, it's enough to go to the World Championships 400 meters."
"What a monster......
Everyone exclaimed, Yi Dun is eligible to participate in the 400-meter event of the World Championships just by virtue of the 400-meter results just now!
Of course, it is unlikely that you will win the championship, and you may not even be able to reach the final.
However, Eden's own events have nothing to do with the 400-meter event, and now the 400-meter can run the World Championships, which is already extremely amazing.
Now everyone is looking at Yi Dun intently, eager to know how long Yi Dun's terrifying speed can be maintained.
