Chapter 389: The Second Gold of the Asian Games
When the time reached 16:45, before the men's 400-meter starting line at the Khalifa International Stadium, Ye Qin heard the sound of the starter next to him reminding the runners to take their positions.
Ye Qin slowly walked on the starting line, controlled the contact between the left and right soles of the feet and the pedal of the running aid, in the sprint race, there is a detail on the pedal, that is, the front power foot can touch the ground when it touches the tray, but the foot behind is not allowed to touch the ground.
Ye Qin has done a very good job in these details, even if he didn't pay special attention to some movements, but the training over and over again all year round had already soaked into the bone marrow and turned into an instinctive reaction.
In this group of men's 400m athletes, Ye Qin has two opponents who need the most attention, one is Saudi Arabia's Hamdan Albihi, the other is the 2000 World Youth Championships men's 400m champion, the winning time was 44.66 seconds, setting a world junior record at the 2002 Busan Asian Games, Hamdan Albihi won the second place with a time of 44.95 seconds. In the men's 400m event in Asian athletics at this time, Hamdan Albihi is one of the top 400m athletes.
The other is Bahrain's Brandon Simpson, who has previously represented Jamaica in many world-class competitions, winning silver or bronze in the 4×400m event at the World Championships in '01 '03 and '05. At the 2004 Athens Olympics, he finished fifth in the men's 400m, setting a personal best of 44.76 seconds.
At the beginning of the race, Ye Qin did not start to accelerate as fast as the 100-meter acceleration in the starting stage, but kept controlling his pace, and always noticed that the Saudi Arabian athlete Hamdan Albihi, who ran at his depth, was an experienced veteran who had a lot of success in the men's 400m event, but his form has declined in the past two years, and his results are not as brilliant as before.
Brandon Simpson is a multi-national athlete who was born in the United States and has represented Jamaica and Bahrain as a member of the team, and has been exposed to a variety of advanced training concepts, and has consistently achieved good results, both at the Olympics and at the World Championships, which can reach the finals.
In the first 200 meters, Ye Qin ran very steadily, and in this men's 400-meter final, he did not come to set a record, but to win the championship. And after this race, he has to play a 200m heats, and although he feels that he can withstand it physically, the necessary strategy still needs to be adopted.
At this time, many coaches in the stands who had studied Ye Qin, as well as Mu Jiang, a track and field commentator on the Central Fifth Channel, also discovered this and explained through the microphone: "...... Ye Chin's 400m run was a bit more steady than before, and his technical style in this 400m was somewhat similar to that at the beginning, with more pressure in front...... 200 meters later, the straight into the corner, Ye Qin began to accelerate......"
By the end of the half-marathon, Yechin had gradually picked up his pace, and by this time he had gradually discovered that Saudi Arabia's Hamdan Albihi and Bahrain's Brandon Simpson might not be suitable for winter racing, and their form was not as impressive as they had shown in the big races.
In the 250-meter corner, Ye Qin gradually began to exert his strength, and gradually overtook the crowd of competitors, and his speed became faster and faster.
Mu Jiang's voice became high-pitched at the same time: "...... Ye Qin began to accelerate, and the 250-meter mark was what Olympic champion Jimmy Warner was best at, but in fact, Ye Qin had also run this way before, his speed gradually increased, and the corners went into the straight, and Ye Qin took the lead...... Finally launch the sprint......"
Corners into straights!
Ye Qin had no opponent by his side, and he began to rush forward quickly, and he could tell that the players around him had been pulled away by him.
The two competitors who were valued by him in the final were not too impressive in this group of 400 meters.
Before Ye Qin appeared, in the sprint event, the gap between Asian athletes and world-class athletes in the men's 100m event was huge, and often no one could reach the final at the World Championships and the Olympics, but from 200 meters to 400 meters, with the extension of the distance, many Asian athletes no longer performed like the 100 meters. Other athletes such as Shingo Suesu, who finished third in the men's 200m at the World Championships, and Brandon Simpson, have all run in the final.
However, in this game, facing Ye Qin, who was on the rise at this time and was in good shape, the other famous players present were much worse.
Rush the line!
On the on-site timing board, this group of men's 400-meter results appeared in front of everyone, 44.88 seconds!
Ye Qin was a little slower in the second half of the race without any threat, but even so, Ye Qin ran an amazing time for the Asian runners.
And the time of 44.88 seconds once again broke the Asian Games men's 400m record.
The previous Asian Games men's 400m record was 44.93 seconds, set by Qatar's Ibrais Ismail Mutah and Kuwait's Fawazki al-Shamali at the 1994 and 2002 Asian Games.
“…… In 44.88 seconds, although Ye Qin did not break the Asian 400m record held by himself, this is his second record at this Asian Games. More than two and a half hours later, Ye Qin will be the men's 200m preliminaries, and tomorrow night at 21:20 Beijing time will be the men's 200m final of this Asian Games. And the 200-meter event is what Yechin is best at. At the 2005 World Championships in Helsinki, Ye Qin won a historic 200m gold medal for China...... We look forward to Ye Qin's brilliance, audience friends, we are witnessing miracles, witnessing the miracles that Chinese athletes continue to create in the Asian Games......"
At the moment when Ye Qin crossed the finish line, the voice of the commentator Mu Jiang was already trembling slightly, and the most surprising thing about this Asian Games was undoubtedly Ye Qin's performance.
Although Ye Qin came to participate in the Asian Games before, everyone knew that it was very likely that Ye Qin might win several gold medals, but he never expected such a sweep.
This feels like Liu Yangyu after 02 years, in the men's 110m hurdles event in Asia, as long as Liu Yangyu participates, the championship is basically not left behind.
Ye Qin has already won two gold medals in the men's 100m and men's 400m events, and has won the Asian record and the Asian Games record, and now there is only one event left, the men's 200m.
However, the men's 200m is known to the people of the whole country, and Ye Qin is the best and strongest event, as long as Ye Qin does not make major performance mistakes, it is basically a certainty.
One Asian Games, three gold medals, three records, such a result can be said to be unprecedented in the history of the Asian Games. After breaking the men's 100-meter mark and running a time of 9.98 seconds, not only the domestic men's 100m, 200m and 400m records were all swept by Ye Qin, but also Asia.
