July.

Indoor Pavilion of Xinzhuang Training Base.

"Ready—"

Before the starting line, Zhang Pingqiu watched Su Zu, Zhang Peimeng and Lin Zhenyao all step on the starting gear and began to shout the password.

Immediately after the command sounded, he grabbed the whistle hanging around his neck and blew it vigorously.

Beep!

A clear whistle echoed through the indoor pavilion.

The three people in front of the starting line suddenly stepped on the starting block at the moment when the whistle sounded, and the sound of footsteps sounded instantly, and several figures ran from the starting line to the other end of the indoor pavilion.

At the end of the last group's acceleration running training, at the end of the track, Zhang Peimeng and Lin Zhenyao were almost paralyzed on the ground, their chests and abdomen rising and falling violently, and they were panting heavily.

Su Zu gasped twice, glanced at the two of you, smiled, and prepared to walk back to the starting line again.

"Do you want another group?"

Lin Zhenyao looked at Su Zu's appearance, and it seemed that he was going to continue running, according to the training plan, the acceleration run in the morning was basically over.

"You guys rest first, and I'll run two more sets." Su Zu waved his hand and said without looking back.

This level of training is not yet at the point for him, he checked the negative state of the system, there is nothing abnormal, and he is still in a relatively good state.

"Not really."

The corners of Lin Zhenyao's mouth on both sides pulled down, revealing a somewhat exaggerated look. He is a newcomer recommended by Coach Yuan Guohua after Yang Guangzong left.

Guangxi and Guangdong provinces have always been strong sprinting provinces, and both male and female athletes are outstanding in sprinting events. Lin Zhenyao was originally in the second-tier team of Gui Province, and in the track and field wind that gradually blew after Athens, he was discovered by the coach of his provincial team, and his potential was good, although he did not have too much professional training, he already had the level of running a runner. Later, he was recommended to Yuan Guohua by the coach of his provincial team, hoping to further cultivate.

This time, he and Zhang Peimeng were both transferred to Li Zhizhong's command and trained with Su Zu, it must be a lie to say that he was unhappy, but the pressure was also huge.

Seeing that Su Zu continued to train after completing the quota training, Lin Zhenyao was a little unbearable, it was really not easy to become a champion.

Needless to say, the gap in level is staggering.

Beside him, Zhang Pei Meng saw that Su Zu had started walking the starting line again, and he also got up again to prepare to follow the training.

"You're going to run too?" Lin Zhenyao looked at Zhang Peimeng and asked in surprise. Everyone is young, and they have become familiar with each other in a few days.

"Well, I think I still have the stamina to do another group." Zhang Peimeng nodded.

Although the time with Su Zu had only just begun, Zhang Peimeng clearly felt that it was different from his previous training.

The intensity is high, the training methods are varied, and it is more comprehensive and effective.

But again, it's also more boring, more tedious, day after day.

He remembered that Coach Lu Qing came over that day and told him that he and Su Zu were training partners, although he didn't know how he was chosen, he was a little happy in his heart, and a little resistant.

Nickering is the feeling that he may be gifted, and resistance is that few people are willing to live in the shadow of others.

Eventually, though, he came.

Coach Lu Qing has a saying that is very true, you don't go to see how the top athletes train, how you become the top athletes.

After coming, he was really shocked.

Switch your state at any time, and when it's time to train, you can train without distractions, and endure loneliness in order to reap the honor.

If you can't even keep up with your diligence, don't talk about talent gaps.

Lin Zhenyao watched Zhang Pei Meng get up again and follow Su Zu towards the starting line, and he was also stunned for a moment.

"Isn't it hard to practice athletics?" When he was in sports school, he once asked his coach, an athlete in his twenties who had just retired.

The answer was, "Athletics is not difficult, brother." It's not an easy thing to do. ”

And watching Su Zu's training, he really realized that this was really not an easy thing. He had just come up from sports school, and he had not yet been trained day and night in a professional team, so he had no idea what a professional athlete was like.

Behind the championship is countless sweat and hardships, and often everyone can only see the moment on the field.

Lin Zhenyao, who had no reason, remembered the sentence in the movie he had seen: If you want to be noble in front of people, you must suffer later.

Su Zu watched the two of them follow him back to the starting line, ready to run another group, and the corners of his mouth lightly arced.

He doesn't want to take his younger brother with him, what he needs is teammates who sweat together on the training ground.

……

Treatment rooms.

After a day's training, Su Zu and several people were relaxing with muscle massages in the team's physiotherapy room.

A burst of footsteps suddenly sounded, and Li Zhizhong walked in from outside the door.

"Powell is not playing in the World Championships." As soon as Li Zhizhong entered the door, he brought the most important news.

"What?!"

"Hey...... Don't move! ”

Su Zu jumped up from the massage table in a flash in Jiang Daheng's surprise, and Zhang Peimeng and Lin Zhenyao next to him also raised their heads at the same time and looked at Li Zhizhong with wide eyes.

Asafa Powell, who has just broken the men's 100-meter world record, can be said to be the strongest in the current 100-meter, whether it is Su Zu or others, they are looking forward to a battle between the two.

"The Athletics Management Center just confirmed the quota for this World Championships today, and then I learned about it, and there was news from the IAAF officials that Powell had a 2.5-centimeter laceration on his thigh muscle, which is now being treated in Munich, and according to the recovery situation, it should not be able to participate in this World Championships."

Su Zu was in a trance for a moment, looked at Li Zhizhong and asked, "Is there anything else?" Gatling won't and won't come, right? ”

This World Championships is the first time Su Zu has participated, the last World Championships Su Zu has not yet met the participation standards, and the men's straight event in that session is mainly Liu Yangyu and Da Shi, two 110-meter hurdles.

"Gatlin hasn't heard of any of his retirements." Li Zhizhong groaned, and then said, "But in the men's 200 meters, Sean Crawford may have given up with a leg injury, but he should still participate in the men's 100 meters and relay events." ”

Justin Gatlin and Sean Crawford, who won the men's 100m and 200m at last year's Olympics, are Suzu's most wanted opponents.

After more than half a year, Su Zu is already ready to grow up, and he really wants to compete with them again. Unfortunately, in the previous Grand Prix in North America, neither of them showed up.

After reaching a certain level, it is relatively rare to compete at a high level, and it is difficult to guarantee that high-level athletes will appear in a competition except for the Olympics.

Then Li Zhizhong talked about the lineup of the track and field team participating in the Championships, and there were about 40 athletes in total, competing in 24 small events. Led by head coach Feng Shuyong and deputy head coaches Li Zhizhong and Sun Pingjiang, the team was divided into two groups to go to Helsinki.

In the men's sprint 1,200-meter event, only Su Zu participated. Originally, Yang Guangzong also reached the B standard in the 200-meter competition, but he has already gone to the United States for 400-meter training.

In addition, the men's 4×100m relay event, the Chinese team will still participate this time, and the lineup will also be dominated by newcomers, after all, it is the World Championships, not the Olympic Games, and the relay teams of other countries will not necessarily give the strongest lineup.

Hearing the list of the relay team, Zhang Peimeng suddenly came to his senses, he is a member of the relay team, and in track and field, the World Championships is second only to the Olympic Games.

After listening to the news of the World Championships said by Li Zhizhong, Su Zu lay back on the massage table.

Next stop, Helsinki.
