Chapter 408: The Second 200-Meter Battle
"Ye Qin, you kid, it's really ......"
After coming down from the field, the first person to meet Ye Qin was Coach Sun Chaosheng. Looking at Ye Qin's young face, he had mixed feelings for a while.
Although Coach Sun Chaosheng has not been Ye Qin's head coach for a long time, because Ye Qin and Liu Yangyu often compete together, Sun Chaosheng has always taken good care of Ye Qin.
"Coach Sun." Ye Qin looked at Sun Chaosheng and smiled, he ran very happily in the men's 100 meters just now, even if he lost to Jason Gaby in the end, the pimple in his heart was only in that moment, and he quickly jumped over.
There are no undefeated athletes, no matter how good the players are, there will eventually be times when they are not in good shape and lose. What's more, Ye Qin is well aware that he is still far behind Jason Gaby in the men's 100m event.
While he is improving, others are also improving, at least in the past two years, among the players Ye Qin has come into contact with, there is almost no stagnation.
He wants to face these athletes at this year's World Championships and next year's Olympics, and now he needs to improve his strength even more.
However, at the end of the men's 100-meter race in New York, Ye Qin probably had a clearer understanding of himself in his heart, that is, his competitiveness in the 100-meter event.
"When we get to Europe, we should be able to run with Asafavir."
Ye Qin is also very excited about the upcoming men's 100m runner, and even the feeling is stronger than the men's 200m race that is about to start.
Ye Qin and Asafavil do not seem to have met in a head-to-head arena before, that is, Asafavir may participate in the men's 200m event at the beginning of the Eugene station last year, but in the end, it was changed to the men's 100m due to the interference of the organizing committee.
So that Ye Qin did not have a chance to fight with him, which has always been a regret of Ye Chin.
However, in the face of Asafavil, Ye Qin still hopes to run 100 meters with the other party, and if it is a 200-meter event, the probability of Asafavir winning him is not high.
An hour later, after a break in the rest area, Ye Qin stepped back in front of the starting line of the men's 200-meter track at Icahn Stadium.
The men's 100m race in New York is at 15:20 p.m., and the 200m race time is at 16:30 p.m. (inadvertently in the previous article), an hour apart, which is generally relatively rare for a real major event.
But at this level of the Grand Prix, basically a day's race will be squeezed into an afternoon, or even just three or four hours, so the interval between the various events will not be too long.
For Yechin, this year's season has just begun, and such a schedule is not a problem at all. The men's 100 meters, which have just been run, are much less physically demanding than the 200 meters and 400 meters.
At 16:20, in the Icahn Stadium, the atmosphere was still warm.
The lineup of this game is actually somewhat similar to the men's 100m lineup, including the men's 100m hurdles in which Liu Yangyu participated in the front.
At the New York Grand Prix in the United States, perhaps because of the distance, the lineup of the competition was basically divided between the United States and Jamaica, and the remaining places were from other countries.
The line-up for this match is:
First Lane, Davis Barton, USA;
Second Lane, Jordan Wadden, USA;
third, Marvin Anderson - Jamaica;
Fourth Lane, Christopher Williams, Jamaica;
Fifth Lane, Yusse-Bote, Jamaica;
Sixth Dao, Yechin, China;
Seventh Lane, Daniel Bailey, Antigua and Barbuda;
Eighth Lane, Wallace-Spearmon, USA;
In the entire competition lineup, three American players and three Jamaican players are basically the backbone of the current international athletics world.
The final result of this race before the race was basically locked in by many track and field enthusiasts, and the top three were basically only born between Eucey Bot, Yechin and Wallace Spearmon.
Standing in front of the starting line of the men's 200m, Yusse Bot glanced at Yechin in lane 6 and Wallace Spearmon in lane 8 from time to time.
The relationship between the three is now good, and in this men's 200-meter race, it can be said that the top three should not be surprisingly born between the three of them.
Relatively speaking, Wallace Spearmon was stronger at this time, with a best time of 19.65 seconds in the 200m, while Yechin's best time was 19.78 seconds, and his best time of Yusse Bott was 19.88 seconds.
Among them, although Ye Chin's personal best is not as good as Wallace Spearmon, he basically maintained the victory in the game against Wallace Spearmon. Therefore, in the real arena, it is difficult to say who wins and who loses.
But he could feel that he seemed to be the weaker of the three.
At this time, there are not many athletes who can run into the 20-second mark in the men's 200-meter event in international athletics, especially among the new generation of athletes who can open 20 seconds in various Grand Prix, there are mainly only a few people.
Jason Gaby, Wallace Spearmon, Yechin, and himself are the closest in strength.
But Jason Gaby has also achieved great success in the men's 100m in addition to the men's 200m, and the other is that after Yechin also competed in the men's 100m, it seems that he has made great progress.
In the past, Yusse Bot didn't pay much attention to all this, but gradually he had a feeling that he didn't want to be a background board for other people anymore and become a supporting role.
In game after match, it seems that his name of Yusse Bot is never at the top, while his friends and rivals have been the subject of media coverage time and time again.
It seems that the feeling is like, he Yusse Both, just a small person.
Compared to before 04, when he was famous in Jamaica and won the IAAF Rising Star Award, he has been doing well every season in the past few years, but he is still a little bit short of becoming the kind of person who stirs up the storm.
This kind of competition between friends, as well as the World Championships in '07 and the Olympics next year, the upcoming competition, made him feel very different in his heart.
"I want to be the best athlete, the best one."
Yusse-Bot said to himself silently, looking at the two friends and rivals in front of him, his eyes fiery.
There will always be some different pursuits in life, and he was once excited when others said he was Michael Johnson second. Once when he won the men's 200m championship for the first time at the World Junior Championships, the spectators in the stands were chanting his name, and he had glory!
Now he no longer wants to be anyone's second, I live to run, first for myself, then for my homeland.
I'm Yusse Both!
The mentality of Wallace Spearmon in the eighth lane at this time is somewhat similar to that of Usse Bote, and it was also in the game of the Field, he really saw the rise of Jason Gaby, who has always been a training partner.
In the past, in the NCAA era, Jason Gaby lost slightly to him in the men's 200m event, but since the second half of last year, Jason Gaby has entered an explosive stage, and his performance has been climbing steadily, and in this year's men's 100m race, he even ran a time of 9.76 seconds in the case of super wind speed.
Although he was able to convince himself, the other party's result was actually not so powerful, but the wind speed of 9.76 seconds, although it will not be regarded as a record, will still be retained as a personal record.
The feeling of teammates and opponents around you getting stronger and stronger is really exciting in a person's heart.
"This is our time, and I want to be the most visible one."
Wallace Spear looked blankly at the runway ahead and the spectators in the stands in the distance, but there were waves in his heart.
Ye Qin didn't know that these two athletes, who could be regarded as his good friends in international athletics, were in the state of mind at this time, and he had now abandoned distractions and was fully engaged in preparing for the upcoming competition.
In addition to the great improvement in strength and explosiveness, the most important thing about the men's 100m start training was that he was able to become more focused before the race.
The whole person's spirit seems to be focused on the upcoming game, and will not be disturbed by the outside audience, nor will there be too many meaningless thoughts and emotions coming up, there is only one thought in the mind, waiting for the gunfire of the game, and then - run!
