Chapter 284: Terrifying East African Player

More than 30 people were divided into two groups and stood on different starting lines, waiting for the gunfire of the starter.

There are many countries that can be said to be legionnaires, such as those East African countries, as well as the United States and Australia, all of which have three players.

Eden now has a big increase in his stamina attributes, but he doesn't have any sense of crisis, mainly because he is afraid that he will be made bad moves by those three Australians.

"It would be perfect if I could have two teammates and join me in the long-distance running event." Yi Dun said with some regret.

All the projects he has been involved in are currently alone.

If it's a throwing event, it doesn't matter if you fight alone, but in a long-distance running event, it's definitely more cost-effective to have teammates.

The more teammates you have, the more likely you are to help yourself share some unexpected situations on the field.

If there are three Chinese contestants, then Eden doesn't have to worry about the Australians at all.

But now after all, he is fighting alone, and Yi Dun still has to be careful with the other party.

……

"Everyone's in place!"

"Bang!"

The starting gun sounded, and the 31 players ran wildly.

Yi Dun did not dare to relax, whether he could get the lead in this game was very important to him.

If you can't get the lead, you may face the Australian runner next.

Not only Australians, but also the East African Army and the United States Army will never allow themselves to win easily.

Naturally, any player on the scene would want to win the gold medal, but if they don't have a chance to win, they will definitely prioritise helping their national team teammates win the title.

Yi Dun, a lonely person, will be extremely passive if he can't lead in the first echelon.

"It's running!" In the CCTV studio, the host said with relief.

Before the start of the 10,000-meter event, they were extremely nervous, but now that the race has started, they are a lot more relaxed.

Next, you just need to pay attention to the performance of Eden throughout the whole process, and you don't have to think about those messy things anymore.

"Oops, Yi Dun started a little too recklessly, he is now completely ignoring the loss of physical speed, fighting for the leading position." Coach Yang, the national long-distance running team who was invited as a guest, sighed and said.

"In our domestic competition, because Yi Dun has no opponent, no matter how he runs, he will definitely win the championship in the end."

"But now that he is participating in the top international competitions, the strength of his opponents is extremely strong, and it would be too unwise to fight for the leading position so presumptuously."

"Maybe Yi Dun can always lead at the beginning, but if nothing else, after Yi Dun is halfway, because the consumption of physical energy in the early stage is too large, his speed will be reduced, and he will definitely be overtaken."

"It doesn't matter if you're overtaken, it's likely that Yi Dun will gradually fall behind and fall into the second echelon." Coach Yang said with a worried face.

As the top long-distance running coach in China, he can naturally see the disadvantages of Yi Dun's running style.

Even the audience who watched the CCTV live broadcast heard what Coach Yang meant.

That is, the lead is cool for a while, and the future will suffer......

"Yi Dun has successfully taken the leading position, probably because the East African Army does not want to waste too much energy at the beginning, they did not fight too much for this leading position, and now they have been following Yi Dun, the chaotic scene at the beginning has calmed down temporarily, and then we can only wait and see what happens, hoping that Yi Dun can hold on for a longer time."

"Actually, I can also understand Yi Dun's suffering, because there are no teammates on the field, Yi Dun is now in a state of isolation, if he can't break through first, he may always be stuck in the back and do nothing."

"It's better to fight at the beginning than to do nothing and not win a medal."

"You can pay attention to Japan's Yuki Iwai, who probably thinks the same way, but he didn't have the same stride as Yi Dun at the beginning, and he couldn't grab the lead position."

"I hope that some top men's long-distance runners will emerge in our country as soon as possible, so that Yidun will not be alone in the future long-distance running events." Coach Yang's tone was a little heavy.

Yi Dun can also be regarded as his proud apprentice, although the two are not a master-apprentice relationship in essence, but at least Yi Dun received the guidance of Coach Yang when he was training in the national team, and it is reasonable to say that he is a master and apprentice.

Now seeing that Yi Dun was forced to be helpless and used the next strategy in the long-distance running competition, Coach Yang naturally felt a little sorry for Yi Dun.

The CCTV host is also heavy-faced, Yi Dun is the king of the throwing field, the emperor of the all-around event, but now he is a bare pole commander in the long-distance running event, and I don't know if Yi Dun can defeat the three Australians in this game.

If they win the title, they certainly don't expect it, and the only thing they hope for now is that Eden can beat those Australians.

I had just run less than 200 meters at the beginning, and I couldn't really see anything at the moment.

Yi Dun's leading position may be collectively overtaken in the next second, so it is too early to say anything, the only thing they can do is to watch the game silently and cheer for Yi Dun in their hearts.

……

On the track, Yi Dun can obviously feel the benefits of the endurance increase, and if the previous endurance attribute had been running wild at this speed at the beginning, then he would definitely not be so easy now.

The strength close to 99 points has made Eden really have the strength to stand at the top of the long-distance running, and may not be able to break the world record, but the chances of winning the championship at the moment are quite large.

After getting his hands on the frontrunner, Yi Dun began to stabilize his speed and maintain a two-meter advantage over the riders behind him.

Such a location is a safe location that Eden has thought about.

If you let the players behind you get too close, it is easy to be caught by the legions of various countries, which will affect your performance.

If it is too far away, it will need to be accelerated, which is undoubtedly very unwise in the 10,000-meter event.

The current second-ranked runner from Ethiopia is Bekele, who is arguably the best middle-distance runner in the world at the moment, with impressive results at Athens '04 and Beijing '08.

Among them, in the Athens Olympics, he won the gold in the 10,000m and the silver in the 5,000-meter event, and when it came to the Beijing Olympics, he won the gold in these two events by a considerable advantage.

It can be said that Bekele is the world's No. 1 middle-distance runner.

However, even if Bekele is second, he doesn't have much advantage at the moment, and he doesn't even have a half-body lead compared to the players next to him.

If Eden is counted as the first echelon, the second echelon led by Bekele is a bit overwhelming.

More than fifteen players were entangled in each other, and the scene was crowded.

Although Eden is in the lead, no one on the field takes Eden seriously, and the other players are now paying attention to Bekele, who will always follow Bekele in this game and look for opportunities to overtake Bekele at the last moment.

As for Eden? In their opinion, Yi Dun is a grasshopper after the autumn, and it won't last long.

Yi Dun is in the throwing lap and the all-round circle, it is indeed an emperor-like existence, can it be in the long-distance running circle? No one in the scene cared about Yi Dun......

They just need to keep up with the world's No. 1 Bekele, and Eden is happy to take the lead, and sooner or later he will slow down due to physical exhaustion.

Bekele also didn't take Yi Dun seriously, on the contrary, he was a little grateful to Yi Dun and let him be removed from the leading position.

……

Lap after lap, Bekele's expression became more and more weird.

With the number of "second echelons" gradually decreasing, Bekele is already ready to lead the second echelon of players to surpass Eden.

Originally, he thought that it would be natural to surpass Eden, and the time point was about to run a third of the race.

But now that he is almost finished running five thousand meters, Yi Dun is still two meters away from him, and he doesn't look like he is exhausted at all.

Bekele has the intention to speed up to overtake Eden, but when you think about it, it is too cost-effective to accelerate at this point in time, and it may give his competitors an opportunity.

simply ignore EDUN and continue to let EDUN maintain the lead.

……

The Chinese audience watching the live broadcast rejoiced, seeing that the 5,000-meter race was coming to an end, and EDUN still maintained the first place!

Most of them don't know much about the 10,000-meter event, but they only know that Yi Dun is now ranked first, and as long as they can continue to maintain it, they can win the gold medal in this 10,000-meter event.

"Yes, Yi Dun's strength has improved significantly, after the 5,000-meter run, he can still insist on maintaining the leading position, it is really not easy!" The leaders of the track and field center praised one after another.

"What's the use of that, if you don't make it to the last meter, Eden may not even get a medal."

"It's not that you haven't seen these middle-distance running events, first fat is not called fat, and then fat overwhelms the pit, and now I'm afraid that Yi Dun will be weak in the future and will be overtaken one after another." Director Xu sighed and said.

He is feeling uncomfortable now, and if Yi Dun can have two teammates in this game, he may not be so worried.

……

In the blink of an eye, another 2,000 meters were completed, and the race was already two-thirds over!

The players on the field have been divided into several echelons, and the Australian players who are afraid of Yi Dun have long been unaware of where they have been pulled.

The first echelon is still only one Yi Dun, and the second echelon behind him is led by Bekele, and there are only five people left behind him.

The scary thing is that these five people are all East African players!

In other words, if Eden does not perform well today, East African athletes will occupy the top five positions in this 10,000-meter event!

What is a long-distance running overlord? This is the absolute hegemon.

The next third echelon has about ten people, and the scary thing is that only two of these ten non-East African players are from the United States, and the remaining eight are all from East African countries.

That is, Yi Dun does not know the situation behind him now, otherwise, he will definitely be secretly speechless.

Fortunately, I broke through like crazy from the beginning, otherwise, now surrounded by a group of East African players, the situation would definitely be quite bad.
