"By the way, Ye Qin, will you participate in the men's 4×400m relay for the Haixi Provincial delegation? Why don't you participate in the men's 4×100m, I heard that Liu Yangyu seems to have participated in the men's 4×100m relay of the Shenghai team. ”

Li Qi looked at Gu Kai without much interest in talking, turned to look at Ye Qin, and talked about his participation in the National Games this time.

"4×100 will be more demanding for the baton, I haven't practiced it before." Ye Qin thought for a while and said slowly, "Moreover, there are few good athletes in the track and field team of Haixi Province in the sprint events, so there may not be an advantage in real competition." The Sheng Hai team is different, there are many talents, Liu Yangyu, Yang Yao, their strength is at the top level, and there should not be many players who can really pose a threat to them. ”

"That's just as well." Li Qi nodded, although the 4×100m and 4×400m are both relay events, the difference between the two is similar to the difference between 100m and 400m, but the difference is much greater.

4×100 meters for the relay players are very strict requirements, in addition to the level of individual ability, in the handover of the baton technical movements are very emphasized in this aspect, a few years ago in the Asian Games, the Japanese team is outstanding, in addition to its domestic overall athlete level is relatively high, there is also a relay technology is very good.

For example, the Thai team, in the 4×100m event, in the 2002 Asian Games performance was the most eye-catching, Chinese and Japanese athletes surpassed the Thai team in the individual level, but in the relay event was defeated by the Thai team, the opponent won the championship with a time of 38.82 seconds. Most of the athletes in the Thai team are also around 10.50 seconds in the 100m, but with their superb relay skills, it is a great challenge and threat for either Japan or China.

But 4×400 meters is different, one is the longer distance, and the fault tolerance rate is very high. In relay races, it is often heard that in the 4×100m relay race, which team makes mistakes and loses the baton, but the 4×400m is basically relatively rare. The test is more about the individual ability of the athletes, but in the teamwork of the electric baton, the requirements are not so high.

"However, I mentioned it to Coach Yuan last time, if possible, you will still need to run the fourth × the 4100-meter relay of the national team in the future." Li Qi thought about Ye Qin's competition in the National Games, and then mentioned another thing.

"Tomorrow is the Asian Games, which is another major event for our domestic track and field team, and it is also the most important training before the Olympics. Coach Yuan is now selecting the relay runners for the 4×100m relay. ”

As he spoke, Li Qi pointed to Gu Kai, who was sitting on the side with his eyes closed, and said with a smile: "Gu Kai should be able to count one, and Yang Yao, the current level is not bad." In addition, Zhang Peimeng, you have already seen him, he is also better in the 200-meter event like you, but he is not as good as you and Yang Yao in the second or fourth pole. There is also a young player from Guangdong Province, you should have seen it at this year's Indoor Track and Field Championships, he broke the 60-meter record, his start and acceleration are still very good, my opinion and Coach Yuan's opinion is to let you run the fourth stick, then next year's Asian Games at least we can have a good wrist wrestle with the Japanese team. ”

Li Qi knew that Yuan Guohua, the head coach of the relay team in the track and field team, was planning ahead and began to build a team for the relay race in three years, and the first goal was to be able to qualify and reach the top 16 in the world before he could participate in the Olympic Games.

Secondly, what is needed is the growth and plasticity of these athletes. Now there are a lot of 100-meter athletes in the national team, but many of them are already veterans, like the previous batch of Shen Yunbao and Chen Hai, whose state is declining year by year, and it is really impossible to say how well the state can be maintained in the next two or three years.

Ye Qin is naturally one of the most important players, he and other coaches have analyzed Ye Qin's technical characteristics in detail, mainly starting and accelerating slowly, which is a disadvantage in the 100-meter race, after all, the master has made a move, and when your speed is completely added up, the finish line may be approaching.

But relay events are different, and relay events have a relay area. Ye Qin's speed ability is the top among domestic players, and if the speed in the relay area is completely combined, as long as it is not the first stick, he can do the other strokes.

And the second and fourth sticks of the long straight, Ye Qin can also catch up with many opponents with his speed ability.

In addition, players like Gu Kai and Yang Yao have excellent speed ability, plus the Wen Yongyi just mentioned, the athletes who have broken the 60-meter record in a row this year have been able to form a team with good combat effectiveness.

Of course, this team has not yet been formed, but the relay team of track and field is much easier to organize than any other team, one is that everyone is basically national track and field athletes, and it is enough to gather for training.

The only problem is Ye Qin, Li Qi really has a bit of a headache now, and Ye Qin now gives him the feeling that he is really a holographic player.

The 400 meters can be run, the 200 meters can be run, and the 100 meters have not yet appeared in major events, but it can be concluded that they are also competent. If a relay event is added, the burden on Ye Qin will be too heavy.

As for saying that he has to give up one, he really can't say.

"I listened to the arrangement, but I haven't run the relay before, so I still have to find time for everyone to practice and cooperate."

Ye Qin nodded and replied with a smile, he didn't have any doubts about what Li Qi said about the running relay, the sprint race, as long as it was carried out on the track, he basically felt that he could try it now.

"There's no rush on this matter now, and after the National Games are over, we'll study it again when we go back to the team. The school's sports department has been analyzing your previous competition videos for a while now, and your performance in the last Grand Prix at Shenghai Station was even better than the World Championships, which is too valuable for learning and reference. Li Qi smiled, "Personally, in addition to the 200 meters and 400 meters, I really want you to try the 100 meters, this has the greatest influence, and you have the ability to do so." ”

"It was a fantastic day and gave me a really good start." Ye Qin smiled, "If the start is good, I will be able to run faster in front of me, and I will be able to run in the back." 100 meters, I don't know much about it myself. ”

Last month's Shenghai Golden Grand Prix, he was able to break his best time to win the championship, that is, he played very well in the first half of the race, and the experience of that race gave Ye Qin a completely different experience.

He was competing with the world's top sprinters, and he did not lag behind in the first half, and in the back 50 meters, although the speed was still very fast, Ye Qin vaguely felt that his strength in the second half was a little scattered, lacking the excitement of his opponent, although the final result was much better than the World Championships, but he failed to run within 19.90 seconds.

In the Shenghai Grand Prix, his final result was 19.91 seconds, and the runner-up was Jamaica's Christopher Williams, but the opponent's score was only 20.24 seconds.

As for talking about 100 meters, Ye Qin is also thinking about it in his mind these days.

On the one hand, the influence of the 100 meters is big enough, and the other is that whenever I hear people talk about Asian records and national records, I have a little bit of trouble in my heart.

"So, you still have a lot of room for improvement." Li Qi has a pleased smile on his face, he is a veteran coach, studied abroad, and once taught in Singapore, and then in 2000 was hired by Mizuki University to return to China to enter the Mizuki Sports Department, has always been with a great enthusiasm in the selection of athletes.

Gu Kai's arrival made him ecstatic. The appearance of Zhang Peimeng also gave him hope for the future. But the real most eye-catching is Ye Qin, needless to say that he has good talent, it is rare to have the mentality of the competition, as well as the stability of his personal state, which is far beyond his peers and even many mature athletes.

Moreover, Ye Qin is still far from reaching his personal peak. In terms of physiological statistics, a track and field athlete is about 22-23 years old is the peak of his career, and this stage is the most capable of creating personal bests.

There are many cases of athletes, not to mention, Michael Johnson was 32 years old when he set the 400m world record, which is considered an advanced age among track and field athletes.

Ye Qin is not yet 20 years old, plus the age and time are just in time for the 08 Olympic Games, at that time, what kind of results will break out, it is really worth everyone to look forward to.
