Chapter 410: Going to Be a Father?

In the blink of an eye, the nine-day schedule has come to its end.

Eden also won two gold medals on this day, one was the men's marathon in the morning and the other was the men's 5,000 meters final in the evening.

The men's marathon, like the men's race walk, is also attended by three Chinese runners.

I once saw on the Internet that there are some people with holes in their heads who are blowing about the Japanese marathon, saying that the Japanese marathon is very strong and can reflect the tenacity and unyielding quality of the Japanese......

This is really the kind of person who hasn't studied for a few years, and can only say such brainless words after being completely brainwashed by a group of public knowledge.

First of all, Japan's marathon is not strong, and in front of East African runners, it is a pure brother, who can't even win a medal, so I don't know where to start.

Secondly, to say what kind of national tenacity and unyielding quality the marathon embodies is pure nonsense within nonsense, and it does not look at how tenacious and unyielding the East African nation is.

Sports is more of a reflection of the physical fitness of individual human beings, and it can add the advantages of some races in certain events, which has nothing to do with national character.

The two runners who came to participate in the marathon World Championships with Eden were all very interesting.

A man named Wu Shiwei is also a fellow Dongshan villager of Yidun, and this Wu Shiwei is only a college student at present, and he is currently studying at Shandong Institute of Physical Education.

If you want to talk about talent, this Wu Shiwei belongs to the kind of really talented athlete seedling.

Yi Dun didn't need to ask, he could roughly guess Wu Shiwei's journey in the previous years, he participated in the school competition in junior high school and achieved good results, and was favored by his boss or a coach, and then began to cultivate.

If you want to say how professional training Wu Shiwei received, it is estimated that it will not be, mainly because the conditions do not allow it, and it is difficult for him to enjoy the treatment of the top athletes in China before he really achieves results.

In this case, it is really not easy for Wu Shiwei to get a ticket to participate in the World Championships at such a young age.

If you want to talk about talent in long-distance running, Yi Dun feels that he can't catch up with Wu Shiwei.

In addition to Wu Shiwei, another player is named Li Zicheng.

This name is very big, almost the same name as King Li Zicheng, and in terms of personality, this Li Zicheng is also full of energy.

In the marathon circle, whether it is professional or amateur, they will definitely not be unfamiliar with the name Li Zicheng.

This is a serious athlete outside the system, exactly like Yi Dun, all of whom are not subject to the system.

And this is still a serious marathon bounty hunter, a professional bounty hunter, and he can be seen in almost all domestic marathon races.

Yi Dun actually thought about being a marathon bounty hunter at the beginning, but the subsequent strength improved too quickly, resulting in Yi Dun no longer looking down on the marathon bounty.

What's more, bounty hunters work quite hard.

For example, Li Zicheng runs around all year round, running wherever there is a race, and has to participate in forty or fifty races a year.

Of course, the income must be very considerable, last year it was rumored that Li Zicheng earned a bonus of more than 500,000 yuan a year, which is definitely much better than that of ordinary wage earners.

But compared to the income of top sports superstars such as Yi Dun and Yao Ming, it is definitely impossible to watch.

"Brother Dun, we may not be able to help you today, I'm really sorry that we can't support you like Wang Zhen and them." The young Wu Shiwei said to Yi Dun with some guilt.

Although it is the same as the race walking event, it is also a team battle, but Wang Zhen and Chu Yafei are very strong, and they are the world's top players, and they can give Yi Dun some support and protection in the early and middle stages of the competition.

As for Wu Shiwei and Li Zicheng, although they are also the top marathon runners in China, otherwise they would not have been able to get tickets to the World Championships, but there is still a big gap between their level and the world's top, and they can't give Yi Dun any help at all.

Yi Dun shook his head, "It's okay, you guys have to work hard, I don't need help here." ”

Yi Dun is naturally very confident to say such things, the opponent is unlikely to pose any threat to him, the only thing he needs to do is to maintain his speed and run the whole distance.

"Brother Dun, then we wish you this twelfth gold medal in advance." Li Zicheng said with a smile.

He is older than Yi Dun, but he still shouted Brother Dun, in the face of a legend like Yi Dun, no one will rely on the old and sell the old.

Although Li Zicheng and Wu Shiwei are also Yi Dun's opponents, the two know very well that whether Yi Dun has or not, they will not be able to get this World Championships marathon gold medal.

The main reason is that their personal strength is too different from the world's top runners, and the best results of the two of them are not outstanding now.

Wu Shiwei's personal record is 2 hours, 15 minutes and 34 seconds, while Li Zicheng's personal record is slightly stronger at 2 hours, 13 minutes and 12 seconds.

It is no exaggeration to say that even if both of them run a record-breaking result today, it will be difficult to enter the top 10, let alone win the championship.

So they never thought about anything gold or not, and the focus on participation may be the truest idea in their hearts now.

It can really be said that it is important to participate, and after this time, it is really difficult to say whether there will be a chance to participate in this kind of competition in the future.

Being able to compete with Yi Dun this time can be regarded as a good memory in life, and this competition is not a loss.

"Thank you, for Brother Li's words, you can't win this gold medal." Yi Dun laughed.

When the strength reaches the level of Yi Dun, there is no need to be modest, obviously he knows very well that he can win the championship 100%, but he also has to be humble, that is, to pretend to be X.

Moments later, with the starting gun ringing, the game officially began.

In the early stages of the competition, the East African players chased and intercepted Yi Dun as if they had discussed it, and nearly ten East African players directly stuck Yi Dun in the middle.

In this case, if EDUN can have a few helpers, such a dilemma can be easily solved.

But Yi Dun is basically in a state of fighting alone, and in the face of the encirclement and interception of these East African players, Yi Dun has no good solution.

Of course, if it were to be put on the fighting ring, it would be estimated that the five of these black East Africans, who were as thin as pockmarks, would not be enough for Yi Dun to fight.

But now is not a fighting arena after all, fists can't solve the problem, and Yi Dun can only patiently wait for the opportunity to break through.

These East African players are of mixed strength, but the strongest are definitely the Kenyans.

With Eden now dominating the long-distance running scene, Kenyan athletes are actually the most guilty group, and these long-distance running gold medals are in their pockets.

5,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,

But now that Eden has appeared, they can't win any world championship gold medals at all, so they focus all their attention on Eden on the field.

Yi Dun didn't panic, anyway, he could break through sooner or later, this marathon is not a field race, how can he keep blocking himself in the road race.

It didn't take long, about half an hour later, Yi Dun successfully got the opportunity to break through, left a few Kenyan players behind, and directly began to run wildly.

Several Kenyan athletes sighed in their hearts, they knew that Eden ran away from their encirclement, which was equivalent to saying that the gold medal was gone, and they completely lost the opportunity to compete for the gold medal.

Seeing that there is no chance of gold medal, they can also see that since they can't stop Yi Dun from winning the championship, they will try their best to let their players get a higher ranking.

Eden enjoyed the feeling of free running alone, his pace became lighter and his pace was maintained quite well.

When he hit the line, Yi Dun knew very well that his results in this game must be good, after all, he had looked back before hitting the line, and he couldn't see other players at all.

The time of 1 hour, 51 minutes and 22 seconds shocked the citizens of Daegu at the scene, and those reporters who were originally going to interview were also stunned.

A marathon runner once said that the first runner who can run a marathon in two hours is as great as the first person who successfully landed on the moon.

In order to achieve this goal, all marathon runners around the world have been training hard to become the great runners.

Some athletes even participate in non-IAAF-designated events just to break the two-hour mark.

In such an event, the sponsors will arrange a special pace car for the runners, and the green line will be shot out by the laser on the car to instruct the runners on how to run the marathon as efficiently as possible.

Even so, so far, no player has been able to break the two-hour mark.

Who would have thought that in tonight's incomparably formal game, Yi Dun actually did it, and it was not the kind of barely passing, but far exceeding the 2-hour mark!

A scientist once said that it is impossible for humans to break the two-hour mark in a professional competition.

According to the marginal benefit theory, the closer you get to the goal, the higher the cost you have to pay to achieve it.

For example, a professional athlete in the 100-meter athlete himself is 100 meters and 10 seconds, and now he wants to improve his performance to 9.5 seconds, maybe 9.8 seconds, he needs to work hard, and if he improves to 9.7 seconds, it may not be enough to work hard.

And if you really want to reach the goal of 9.5 seconds, the effort is incalculable, and it may even be impossible to achieve the goal due to talent.

The previous marathon was also considered to be such a situation, such a long race, which required runners to run in two hours, which was theoretically impossible!

At least in professional events, human instinct alone can't do that, which is why it's said that the first person to run the two-hour mark is on par with the first person to land on the moon.

And now Yi Dun's achievements are undoubtedly directly shattering this theory that human beings cannot break the 2-hour mark, and it is completely broken!

Not only did he do it, he even far exceeded the two-hour mark!

When Yi Dun saw the results, he was also a little curious, he didn't expect that his state would be so good today, and he would run such a result.

Although there is no world record in the marathon, today's Eden result is actually no different from the world record.

Regardless of the road conditions and weather, it is unlikely that anyone will be able to surpass such a result as Eden, not the world record.

It's not too much to say that it's a permanent world record, and before the attribute continues to improve, Yi Dun doesn't know if he can continue to improve this achievement.

Even Eden didn't know if he could surpass this result, let alone the other players.

After a long time, Yi Dun finally saw the other players hit the line.

The strength of the Kenyan long-distance running team is really terrifying, and the five runners behind Eden, that is, the second to the sixth, actually have four Kenyan runners among them!

Even the remaining one is an Ethiopian player.

It is conceivable that if Yi Dun did not appear, this marathon circle would definitely be completely monopolized by these East African runners.

The second-ranked Kenyan player Giroud, the result is actually quite good, with a time of 2 hours 03 minutes and 11 seconds in any World Championships, there is at least a 90% chance of winning the championship, but unfortunately, today encountered the BUG-like Eden.

As for the next few players, the results are much worse than Giroud.

If Eden is the first echelon, then Girouj is the second echelon, and these players can only be regarded as the third echelon, and their game time is about two hours and eleven minutes.

After a long while, Yi Dun saw Li Zicheng's figure.

In this kind of world competition, Li Zicheng's strength is naturally not eye-catching, and he finally ranked 23rd with a time of 2 hours, 17 minutes and 35 seconds.

Some people may wonder why Li Zicheng's strength can get so many bonuses, and don't some East African runners participate in domestic marathons?

That's true, but the domestic competition is a bit special, many events are divided into two parts of the prize, one part is for foreigners, and the other part is for domestic runners, Li Zicheng is basically the bonus for these domestic runners or some marathon bonuses with relatively low specifications.

Yi Dun stepped forward and helped Li Zicheng.

When Li Zicheng saw the results on the timer, the whole person was stupid, "Brother Dun, this timer is broken, right?" ”

"You ran for 1 hour and 51 minutes? Isn't that a joke? ”

Yi Dun smiled and didn't say anything, I'm afraid that there are many people at the scene who are like Li Zicheng, and they suspect that the timer is broken.

It's really too unbelievable for this achievement, and the more professional players like Li Zicheng, the more incredible they feel.

After a few minutes, Wu Shiwei also successfully completed his race, with a time of 2 hours, 21 minutes and 22 seconds, ranking 31st.

It seems that this result is very bad, but in fact, there are 67 players in the competition, and 31 can be ranked in the middle.

In this kind of world competition, a college student gets a medium ranking, which is actually a kind of success.

……

In the end, a total of 49 people finished the race, and the remaining 18 people did not get the results for various reasons.

After receiving the award, Yi Dunshun successfully won his twelfth gold medal in this World Championships, which is only the last step away from his goal of 13 gold medals.

In fact, even if they don't win the last gold medal, the Chinese track and field team is now firmly on the first place in the medals, and no country can win gold like the Chinese team.

At 8 o'clock in the evening, the men's 5,000-meter final of Eden officially began, and the result was naturally a gold medal without suspense.

However, Yi Dun was a little unhappy, because their national team goal was not achieved this time......

At that time, the task set by the top was to be the first in the medal table, plus no less than 20 medals.

There is no suspense about the first place in the medal table, in fact, even if the Chinese team only sends one Yi Dun to the team this time, it can actually get the first place in the medal table.

The reason is simple, the medal table is arranged according to the number of gold medals, and only if the number of gold medals is equal, the silver or bronze medals will be considered.

The U.S. team only won 12 gold medals in total, one less than the number of gold medals won by Yi Dun alone.

Therefore, even if the Chinese team only sends Yi Dun alone, it can still stabilize the American team!

However, the task goal of the first medal table was completed, but the task goal of the 20 medals was not completed.

In this World Championships, the Chinese team won a total of 15 gold, 2 silver and 2 bronze medals, exactly 19, and there is still a gap from the mission goal.

was short of this last medal, but failed to complete the task, which made Yi Dun's obsessive-compulsive disorder a little uncomfortable.

However, Yi Dun has no choice, now that the World Championships schedule has ended, where can he go to get a medal.

Moreover, even if the competition is not over and you are allowed to sign up for another project, EDUN actually has no more projects to sign up for.

Now the thirteen projects in Eden are all the projects he can participate in, and it is impossible to sign up for other projects.

There are a total of 24 men's track and field events, and Yi Dun now occupies thirteen, and the remaining eleven, all of which are sprinting and jumping events, are all Yi Dun's weaknesses, at least the current Yi Dun is absolutely impossible to win even a bronze medal in these events.

Unable to complete the task perfectly, Yi Dun secretly said that it was a pity, but it is expected that the boss should be very satisfied with the current result, after all, the number of gold medals has set a new record.

On the way back to China, there was laughter and laughter on the plane, and the contestants were in a very good mood, of course, there were also some more depressed players, such as Gong Lijiao, who lost again.

After returning to China, it is inevitable to have a celebration banquet, and he won the honor of winning the first place in the medal table at the two World Championships in a row, which is definitely a historic moment for Chinese track and field.

By the time the celebration banquet was over, Yi Dun couldn't wait to return to his villa in Beijing, and Tong Yangling was waiting for him.

"Edon, congratulations." Just met, Yi Dun was about to linger, but Tong Yangling suddenly came to say this, which made Yi Dun look confused.

"Congratulations? Are you talking about gold medals? So what's there to congratulate. Yi Dun said speechlessly.

There are already countless gold medals in the treasure room of his hometown, and no matter how many gold medals he wins now, he can't make Yi Dun feel too happy.

Tong Yangling's face blushed, shook his head and said, "No, congratulations on becoming a father." ”

The scene suddenly quieted down, Yi Dun's eyes were about to pop out, he was going to be a father?!
