Chapter 246: Two National Records (Part II)
Randy Hunter's mind flashed quickly, and he vaguely remembered the previous exchange between Ye Qin and Chen Zhongzhou about Ye Qin's running skills in corners when he was training.
Ye Chin's cornering skills are very good, it can be said that Randy Hunter could not have imagined that Ye Qin would have such excellent cornering skills, Ye Qin can make achievements in the men's 200 meters and men's 400 meters, in addition to his personal strength and technical characteristics, there is also his superb cornering skills.
He asked Ye Qin how he felt about running in corners, and Ye Qin said that he had paid special attention to the training of cornering techniques from the beginning of training, and that he was at school at that time, and he had just started training, and he was taught by retired athletes who were physical education teachers at school.
When the opponent first trained Ye Qin in cornering skills, he was guided by the way of middle-distance running, focusing on the angle of the inner lane and the control of speed and rhythm. There is a slight difference between long-distance running and sprinting in the cornering technique, compared with sprinting, middle-distance running needs to pay more attention to the personal running rhythm, in the long-distance running is easy to be led by others, and the cornering stage is often an important stage for athletes to determine their position and prevent being overtaken by others.
Later, after Nie Fangping took over, he strengthened how to use centrifugal force to achieve speed up in corners and coordinate his hands, feet and limbs, which made great progress in his cornering skills.
For Ye Qin, the first sprinting technique he mastered in the true sense of the word was actually running corners. From the beginning of running, and then to Nie Fangping's training in the curve running method combined with warm-up, he has never heard of it.
The overall training time may not seem like a long time, but when it comes to cornering techniques, he has a much better grasp than the average athlete. You can also fully mobilize your body and use your body's strength to run. As the saying goes, it's just running very smart.
In sprint races, in addition to the 60 meters and 100 meters, such as the 200 meters and 400 meters, and the 4×100 meters and 4×400 meters, cornering has always been a difficult point.
Each pass is different, and the rhythm and cadence that need to be controlled in the corners need to be adjusted by the body through knee-jerk reactions in high-speed running. There are some athletes who specialize in running the men's 100 meters, and if they are the first or third runner in the relay race, they even need to train for each lane of the corner, so that the body can fully master this skill.
When Ye Qin initially started training by Yan Ning and chose the men's 400 meters as the main event, he began to train and came into contact with curve running, in the corner, whether it is the first or the eighth, he has run for I don't know how many times, and he has completely regarded this as a habitual exercise.
In addition, before last year's indoor track and field championships, Nie Fangping made a very detailed analysis of Ye Qin's 200 meters in the indoor competition, and Ye Qin's skills in the corners were much better and better than those of ordinary athletes.
Not to mention that compared with the world's top celebrities, at least many athletes in China cannot compare with him, there may be some cornering skills better than him, but the speed is not as fast as him. And the speed is as fast as his, and the cornering technique is not as good as his.
Randy Hunter found that Yechin was very smart and light when he ran the corners, and seemed to be using the power of the arc of the track, so that when Yechin appeared in the straight of the outdoor race again, Randy Hunter actually had a feeling that he had made a mistake in judgment.
"Come on!"
"Come on!"
For a moment, the stands seemed to be infected by the speed shown by Ye Chin, and some people in the audience suddenly applauded.
At first, it was just three or two people, but then more and more, and gradually it became a bit overwhelming.
The most exciting event in track and field is often the sprint event, and the men's 400m race can make everyone pay more attention to the competition scene at this time than the 100-meter race.
In fact, the audience is a clear-eyed person, and it is also the group that is most susceptible to the performance and performance of the players on the spot, and they will sneer, disdain, and even scold the athletes who do not perform well.
But in the same way, for the outstanding athletes, the athletes who do their best and go all out, I will give you the greatest sincerity and applause.
"Ye Chin, come on!"
"Ye Chin, come on!"
One after another, shouts and cheers rang out.
After rushing into the last straight, Ye Qin faintly seemed to feel the noise around him much louder.
He didn't go into detail, and all he could maintain at this moment was maximum concentration.
Eighty meters, seventy meters, sixty meters......
The finish line was growing in his eyes, and he felt as if he was about to reach the finish line.
Whew-
Whew-
The heavy wheezing sound became heavier, the fatigue of the body deepened, and every swing of the arm, every step of the step, became heavier and heavier.
Ye Qin suddenly began to accelerate the sprint, this group of men's 400m finals, he did not encounter a strong opponent impact, the level of the players participating in the competition compared to several athletes in last year's City Games, perhaps because of the beginning of the season, the level is also relatively weak, he almost except for the beginning of the start to control the rhythm did not seize the first place, the whole process is ahead of other players running.
The muscles that have accumulated a lot of lactic acid, in this last moment, the long-term training allows him to still have the energy to do the final acceleration sprint.
Everyone on the sidelines could see it clearly, Ye Qin's speed from the corner to the straight has been maintained at a constant speed, compared to this speed, the players behind him have been pulled away by him.
And in the last few tens of meters, Ye Qin suddenly accelerated and rushed up.
"Yes, that's what I want!"
Randy Hunter shouted even more excitedly when he saw that Yechin finally began to accelerate in the arena.
This is one of the characteristics of Yechin's technique that he values the most, after a fast run of more than 300 meters, Yechin can still sprint in the last few tens of meters.
Chen Zhongzhou has communicated with Randy Hunter that Yechin's 200m results are better, but since Randy Hunter discovered this characteristic of Yechin, he feels that Yechin will definitely be able to become the world's top in the 400m.
What is talent? That's talent!
The body is born with an anaerobic tolerance and speed retention ability that exceeds the average person, coupled with excellent speed, Randy Hunter is confident that as his first yellow athlete to coach, Yechin's final achievement will definitely not disappoint him.
Ye Qin looked at the finish line, and what seemed to be vague in front of him seemed to have become a little blurry, but he had completely ignored it, his breathing was getting heavier and heavier, and his lungs seemed to be burning with every breath, and his body was like an overloaded machine, as if it was about to explode at any time.
Rush the line!
The moment he crossed the finish line, Ye Qin almost felt as if his body was about to be drained.
After finishing the men's 400m run, he felt much more tired than in his previous indoor races, but fortunately, he was not paralyzed in such a race.
After running a few steps slowly, he slowly slowed down, holding his waist with both hands, and gasping for air.
45.23 seconds!
On the timing board next to the finish line, Ye Qin's group of men's 400m results appeared.
When Ye Qin saw this achievement, a smile appeared on his somewhat stiff face.
"I did it, I did it!"
After running the indoor race this year, Chen Zhongzhou privately joked that Ye Qin might have a chance to break the national record, and even run under 45 seconds.
Ye Qin also thought about it at that time, but he didn't expect it to come so quickly.
When he ran the preliminaries in the morning, he actually felt that he might have hope, after all, he had reservations.
In the afternoon race, I don't know if it was because he was a little tired after running in the morning, although he ran fast enough to lead the other runners after the start, and he felt good, but he didn't meet the best expectations, and he ran a little loose in the middle of the straight stage.
Fortunately, he grasped the final sprint stage, and with the last bit of physical strength that he maintained in a good rhythm, he sprinted and finally broke the men's 400m record.
Compared with the national men's 200-meter record set by the World Youth Championships last year, he attaches more importance to this men's 400-meter record, he initially started to run 400 meters by chance, but since then the talent reflected in this event is extremely high, and later Yan Ning determined that the 400 meters is the main event, and he has always focused on the 400 meters.
But the relatively outstanding result in the 200 meters once made Ye Qin wonder if he had chosen the wrong direction.
Now, it's finally proven right.
45.23 seconds, according to his indoor results, is not particularly good, but this time exceeds last year's Sean Ritter, for most of the year, he has the level of the opponent's World Youth Championships.
"Next, 45 seconds!"
Ye Qin looked at the results that appeared on the timing board, took a long breath, and determined what he was going to do next.
Whether or not a 45-second score in the men's 400m is a sign of whether a 400m athlete is at the top of his game, and now, he is finally not far away.
In the live broadcast of the Zhaoqing Sports Center, a message about the men's 400-meter race soon came out.
“…… In the just-concluded men's 400m final, Ye Qin, an athlete from Hercy Province, set a new national record with a time of 45.23 seconds......"
Almost instantly, the stadium was filled with thunder, applause and whistles, expressing the crowd's appreciation for the young sprinter's dedication to their hometown.
Zhaoqing City hosted the National Track and Field Franchise Championship many about and the staff is even more happy, a national record in Zhaoqing City was born, which means a lot of things, at least in the next time the field management center chooses the host city, they will get priority.
With a competition that has been held locally for a long time, it is easy to stimulate and cultivate an atmosphere for sports, and it is much easier to carry out a lot of work.
When Chen Zhongzhou saw this result, his face showed even more ecstasy, turned around, and hugged Randy Hunter fiercely.
Looking at the other party's somewhat puzzled eyes, Chen Zhongzhou shouted excitedly, "Ye Qin, Ye Qin broke the men's 400-meter national record, and now Ye Qin is the owner of two national men's sprint records, you don't have to worry that the field management center will sell him cheaply." ”
Randy Hunter smiled and nodded, in his eyes the men's 200m and men's 400m in China are generally weak, and breaking these two records is not particularly worth writing about.
But for track and field people like Chen Zhongzhou in China, they were completely shocked when they saw this achievement.
This is the first time in the history of domestic track and field that someone has won the national records in the men's 200m and men's 400m!
