Chapter 21: $10,000 in hand

The strength of the three East African players shocked Eden a little.

Now Yi Dun's endurance attribute has reached 93 points, which is far beyond the level of national-level athletes, but compared to these three blacks, there is no advantage at all......

Seeing that he couldn't hold it anymore, Yi Dun didn't want to save face, and directly lowered his cadence slightly.

At the moment when Yi Dun slowed down slightly, except for the three blacks, the rest of the first-echelon members also immediately slowed down.

Even Yi Dun couldn't hold it anymore, and these people were even more desperate to grit their teeth and persevere.

……

Ten minutes later, the three blacks had completely disappeared from the view of Yi Dun and the others.

Yi Dun secretly cursed a pervert in his heart......

It's so perverted, if only one black man is strong, that's fine.

But now the three participants all have the strength to crush, which is too perverted.

This also shows the dominance of these two countries in East Africa in long-distance running.

……

After another half an hour of running, Yi Dun was relieved, and did not continue to follow the three blacks, and now he is in the second echelon of the leader, everything follows his own rhythm, and the running is quite comfortable.

Yi Dun is comfortable here, and the others are a little distressed.

They didn't expect that they couldn't outrun those three black men, and they couldn't even run away from the "amateur" runner who was as strong as a bull.

They were no longer able to keep up with Eden's cadence.

Yu Huatian, who had been following Yi Dun, was completely shocked at this moment.

He had seen Eden's performance in the tournament before and knew that Eden was very strong.

But that's only 5,000 meters and 10,000 meters, and it's unlikely that Yu Huatian will have any outstanding strength to run a marathon with a body like Yi Dun.

But now that he has completed two-thirds of the race, he is surprised to find that he can't keep up with Yi Dun's rhythm.

As the captain of the high-ranking official running team, the marathon is his strength, but his strength can't run a child who has just turned 18 years old?!

……

As the schedule continues, there are fewer and fewer opponents around Eden.

When there were still ten kilometers left before the end of the race, Yu Huatian, who was the strongest, was also out of the second echelon.

At present, there is only one person left in the second echelon!

There was a rare spectacle on the track, there were three people in the first echelon, but there was only one Yi Dun in the second echelon......

Yi Dun also noticed the situation around him, and he was a little excited.

In this way, as long as you don't pull your hips in the next ten kilometers, you can already win a fourth place.

The prize for the fourth place is 10,000 US dollars, which is close to 80,000 yuan at the current exchange rate of about 80,000.

Such an amount of money is definitely a huge amount of money for a family like Eden.

And now this huge amount of money has been steadily taken by Yi Dun.

……

By the end of the race, which was less than 10 kilometres, Eden could not catch up with the top three East African runners.

The moment he crossed the finish line, Eden glanced at the time on the timer.

2 hours, 15 minutes and 17 seconds, such a result is far better than Eden's first marathon performance.

The standard for a national marathon runner is 2 hours and 20 minutes, and the international runner is 2 hours and 13 minutes.

Looking at the results of the three East African players, all of them ran within 2 hours and 9 minutes, Yi Dun couldn't help but secretly say that these guys are really terrifying.

……

About four or five minutes later, Yi Dun saw Yu Huatian take the lead and lead the third echelon to complete the schedule.

Yu Huatian, who ranked fifth, ran a time of 2 hours, 18 minutes and 47 seconds, which is also the standard result of the national athletes, but slightly compared with Yi Dun, the gap is still quite obvious.

……

"Yi Dun, you kid is a bit of a real person, right?" Yu Huatian panted and walked to Yi Dun's side, pinched his waist and said heavily.

Yi Dun rested for a few minutes, and now his breath had calmed down, and he looked at Yu Huatian with a smile.

"Good guys, they have all run in 2 hours and 15 minutes, if we know the leaders of the track and field center, it is estimated that Dele blossoms, and our long-distance running projects in Dongshan Province have been in a weak position over the years."

"Now that you're here, we'll finally be able to raise our eyebrows in the future."

Yi Dun became more and more embarrassed when he heard this, he still didn't know how to speak, and told Yu Huatian that he had no plans to join the provincial team.

"By the way, Captain Yu, can the members of the provincial team participate in this kind of competition?" Yi Dun asked curiously.

"Why can't you participate? It's a strange question, where did you hear that we can't participate in this kind of competition. Yu Huatian said speechlessly.

Yi Dun became more and more curious about these players of the provincial team, and according to them, it seems that there are not too many constraints on entering the provincial team.

"What about bonuses? How is it distributed? Yi Dun asked curiously again.

In fact, that's what Eden wants to know most.

Hearing Yi Dun ask about such a sensitive question as bonuses, Yu Huatian was a little reluctant to answer.

But thinking about Yi Dun is about to enter the provincial team, this kind of thing must be known sooner or later anyway, and it is not a big deal to tell Yi Dun now.

"There are still some differences in each project, our track and field, the team members participate in this kind of competition with bonuses, if they get the bonus, they can keep 50% or 60%, for example, I can keep 60%, the remaining 40%, 30% to the track and field center, and 10% to donate to the sports fund."

"And like Liu Xiang, the situation is more special, he can only get fifty percent, the remaining fifty percent, two percent for the provincial team that cultivated him, the coach logistics take one and a half, and the sports fund is one and a half."

"This kind of thing, when you enter the provincial team, someone will naturally tell you." Yu Huatian patted Yi Dun on the shoulder and said with a smile.

The corners of Yi Dun's mouth twitched, if he went to the provincial team to sign up two days ago, then he would have to hand over forty or fifty percent of his bonus today?

It's a little distressing to think about......

For athletes like Yu Huatian, in fact, there is no problem at all for them to hand in the prize money.

After all, they were trained by the provincial team, and they ate the logistics support of the provincial team.

This can be seen as the provincial team's investment in them, and after they get the bonus, they naturally have to give back.

……

It was not until the closing time at two o'clock in the afternoon that the award of the Qinglian International Marathon officially began.

The top eight players took the stage in turn to receive their awards, and the top three black players each received a check and also received a medal.

As for the fourth place Eden, only cheques come in.

Seeing the bright $10,000 on the check, Yi Dun's breathing became short.

With such a large sum of money, Yi Dun's hand holding the check began to tremble slightly.

Yu Huatian, who ranked fifth, also got a check for 8,000 US dollars, and he was also smiling at the moment.

Even if he has to hand over 40%, he still has an income of close to 5,000 US dollars, which is quite impressive.

In addition to Yu Huatian, another member of the provincial long-distance running team ran eighth and also won a bonus.

……

"Yi Dun, report early."

"Yes, I made such a lot of money today, and when you join the team, we have to slaughter you."

Everyone in the long-distance running team smiled at Yi Dun.
