Chapter 487: But I Don't Want to Wait

When everyone came to the track and field, they saw Yang Yao, Zhang Peimeng, Su Bingtian, and Gu Kai training together.

It is also relay training, but it is a 2-on-2 lineup, Yang Yao and Zhang Peimeng are in a group, Gu Kai and Su Bingtian are in a group, a group of 200 meters, for confrontational training.

"Old Yuan, this Su Bingtian was brought back by you from Guangdong Province, and it has made rapid progress in the past two years!"

Yu Weili watched Su Bingtian and Gu Kai cross the runway quickly from the sidelines, and couldn't help but nod with satisfaction. The men's sprint relay lineup is now quite good, not only qualifying for the Olympic relay, but also winning an unprecedented three quota places in the men's 100m and 200m.

"It's still a little tender now, next month's World Youth Championships, I'm going to let Su Bingtian try it out and accumulate more competition experience." Yuan Guohua stood aside and smiled, he was still quite satisfied with Su Bingtian.

Originally, according to his opinion on Su Bingtian, I am afraid that the other party should not have grown so fast, but the atmosphere of the national team in the past two years is really good, and several coaches have learned a lot from IMG Academy and Randy Hunter, and they have taken a lot of steps in the training method.

In fact, this can be seen from the increase in the number of athletes who can run in 10.50 seconds in the national team and their respective local teams.

Even some training methods have spread to sports schools and some ordinary universities and middle schools, coupled with the popularity of track and field events in recent years, it can be said that the overall selection of athletes has become very wide.

For track and field events, or even sports projects, in fact, the most important thing to develop is to popularize and promote a wide range of them, including training methods and knowledge, and the other is to improve the overall physical fitness of young people.

In Yuan Guohua's era, regardless of the training method, in terms of physical fitness alone, the number of people who could be selected was much worse than now.

From the eighties and nineties to the millennium, it was another step and threshold, and now it has entered a new stage.

Moreover, with the improvement of training methods, in recent years, in the youth competition, it is obvious that the men's 1200m performance has a rising trend.

According to this situation, perhaps in the next six or eight years, many regional competitions are estimated to have excellent seedlings who can advance 11 seconds in 100 meters, or even reach the level of first-class athletes.

This was unthinkable in the past, in many national competitions, athletes often won the championship with a result of only about 10.40 seconds, but according to this development momentum, even if there will be no more world-class dominance in the men's sprint event like Ye Qin in China, at least the sprint event can also move forward a big step, and even a few more athletes who break the 10-second mark can be born.

"Alas, didn't Ye Qin practice with him today?"

Coach Li Qi watched the training of the two groups for a while, and looked up at the track in the distance, where Ye Qin was running alone, and Ye Qin's assistant coach Chen Zhongzhou was following closely on the sidelines.

"Ye Qin doesn't play in the group confrontation, only when he practices together, he will appear on the last bat." Yuan Guohua obviously knows the situation in the men's 4×100m relay team, this training method is still proposed by him, and the relay project drives the individual event, which is definitely not just talking, the relay team must not only strengthen tacit understanding, but also strengthen confrontation.

However, when fighting against the project, Ye Qin is excluded most of the time, after all, the difference in strength is relatively large, and it is okay to stimulate the players occasionally, but in the long run, it will make many players feel slack and powerless.

"Let's go, let's go and have a look."

Yu Weili looked at several coaches and walked towards Ye Qin's location first.

Just after they were often, they saw Ye Qin running the 400-meter run, and after finishing the 400 meters, he did not stop completely, but ran half a lap more, that is, 600 meters.

It's clear that it's endurance and obviously, it's endurance in the second half of the 400m.

In addition to the men's 100m and 200m, the 400m will still be in the same event as the World Championships in Osaka.

This time in the Yenching Olympics, under the stimulation of Ye Qin, several athletes can participate in the men's 100 meters and 200 meters, but in the 400 meters, Ye Qin is still the only one.

It is actually okay for Ye Qin to give up the 400-meter event to focus on the men's 100-meter and 200-meter, but Ye Qin has never wanted to give up the 400-meter event, even if he usually practices a little less, but he has not completely let go.

When training with his teammates, when Yang Yaozhang and Pei Meng were engaged in in-group confrontation training, he just had time to do long-distance endurance training.

After the winter training of IMG Academy, because of his focus on improving the strength of the 100-meter sprint, Ye Qin can feel that his sprinting speed has indeed improved a lot, but the overall improvement in the 400-meter has not been great.

The improvement of his short-distance explosive power inevitably caused his endurance to decline to a certain extent.

The results are currently slightly improved, after all, although the stamina has been reduced a little, the speed ability has also been strengthened to a certain extent. And I didn't participate in the competition, and some aspects are still unknown.

It's just that now he can feel that after running the 300 meters, the second half of the race is much harder than before, so in order to prepare for the Olympics, the strategy he adopts will also be adjusted.

What Ye Qin is ready to adjust now is to return to the energy-saving running style he used to run for the 400 meters at the beginning, and then prepare to rush to the front with speed and ability in the second half of the race.

Compared with the men's 100m and 200m, because the center of gravity shifted early, Ye Qin knew that his 400m would be more difficult than the 100m and 200m if he wanted to compete for the championship.

On the one hand, this difficulty comes from the opponents, Jimmy Warner and Sean Merritt, two strong athletes whose performances in the 400m will not allow him to win the championship easily.

The other is the lack of its own strength.

In the 100m, he is already on the edge of the world record, and in the 200m, he hasn't run a good run recently, but he should probably be able to break Michael Johnson's world record.

Mainly in the 400m, and if he can find time to run the 400m, he believes he can do better in the 400m.

However, the reality is that the men's 100m is the most important, and running the men's 100m is more important than any other track and field event.

Moreover, Ye Qin can feel the completely different feeling brought by the race against time when running the men's 100 meters, the unparalleled tension and excitement.

Go all out, blast at full speed, and finally cross the finish line and defeat all your opponents, it's a feeling of being intoxicating!

The world's first, the world's flyer!

Only winning the men's 100m race can be called yes!

"Coach Yu, Coach, Professor Li!"

After a group of 600-meter ultra-long-distance fast-endurance runs, Ye Qin just stopped, and saw Yu Weili, Yuan Guohua and Li Qi coming hand in hand, immediately wiped the sweat on his face, calmed his breath a little, and said hello to a few people.

"Ye Qin, it seems that you are in good shape!"

Yu Weili walked in front of Ye Qin first, and glanced at Ye Qin up and down, with a little concern in his eyes.

Recently, Liu Yangyu retired from the two games in New York and Eugene, because of the injury, he didn't want Ye Qin to be injured again and there were irreparable factors.

"It's okay." Ye Qin nodded, watching several coaches come over, he naturally knew why they came.

Then he smiled and said to a few people: "Coach, now you can be busy with your own affairs, you don't need to come to see me, I have no problem." ”

Ye Qin pointed to his chest as he spoke, "My master said before that I have a big heart, so I really don't need to come here. As for the world record......"

Ye Qin paused as he spoke, and several coaches had unpredictable looks on their faces, as if waiting for Ye Qin to say something.

"That's nothing." Ye Qin smiled, "A week's world record, that's also a world record, besides, there is a competition ahead, I originally thought it should be a record-breaking Olympic Games, and the last time I broke the record was actually an accident." ”

"Hey, you kid has a big mouth, it's an accident to break the world record." Yu Weili shook his head, but hearing Ye Qin say this, everyone's hearts were also a lot more relieved.

Ye Qin shook his head and didn't explain anymore, but in fact, most of the time athletes broke world records with some luck.

Everyone originally wanted to come over to see Ye Qin's psychological state, but now that they saw that Ye Qin was in a good state, they suddenly breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts.

Regardless of which athlete you are, knowing that you have just set a world record and being beaten by another opponent in less than a week can have a huge impact on your mentality.

When Ye Qin first heard the news, his heart was also mixed with various emotions of loss and resentment, and it seemed that he could experience the feeling of Asafarville at that moment.

But soon he calmed down.

He's very self-regulated, and he knows very well that he has the ability to break the world record, and Ussie Bot has the ability to break the world record, and it doesn't make much sense to talk about anything else unless the two go head-to-head.

And now that the time for the Olympics is getting closer and closer, for Yusse Bol to break his own world record by one hundredth of a second, Ye Qin believes in the strength of the opponent and also believes in his own ability.

However, Ye Qin always had a thought in his heart, and he opened his mouth and said to several other coaches: "Ladies and gentlemen, I think I should participate in a few competitions before the Olympics and run 100 meters so that everyone can have more confidence." ”

This battle has already begun, and at present, Ye Qin is weaker than the inferior.

It's not just a matter of momentum for one person, it's about momentum for the whole project.

When the world record was broken by him, the domestic sprint industry in Jamaica was also full of mourning and unwillingness. In the past few years, Asafavil has dominated the men's 100m world record, and the effect on Jamaica's sprinting has been more effective than the publicity of previous years. Once that record is taken away, it will have some impact on the confidence of many Jamaicans.

And after recapturing it again, it is full of indomitable momentum.

The same is true of the domestic situation, Ye Qinping's world record broke the world record, in one go, the momentum is like a rainbow, so that many people feel that the yellow Chinese can achieve an unprecedented level, and now it is less than a week, and it is difficult to be picked over, no matter how psychologically it is unacceptable.

"This thing!" Yu Weili frowned slightly, looked at several other coaches, and did not answer directly, "Let's think about it again!" ”

Yuan Guohua, Li Qi and others all nodded, it is inevitable for athletes to compete in track and field, but if Ye Qin is holding the purpose of competing with Yusse Bote, he will definitely run with all his might, in this way, for the physical burden, there is also the risk of injury, if there is a little problem at this time, it is really a bit worth the loss.

Ye Qin was not in a hurry, knowing that everyone's consideration was right.

The reason why he has reduced his participation this year to prepare for the Olympics is not that he can't play.

Instead, he participated in many events in the Olympic Games, including the men's 100m, 200m, 400m and men's 4×100m relay races, to protect his body and accumulate physical energy, which is more adequate than last year's World Championships.

It's June now, and the Olympics are only two months away, so it's not impossible to participate at this time.

After all, the preparation of athletes is also inseparable from the field, such as the Osaka Grand Prix that Ye Qin participated in before, and the New York Grand Prix and Eugene Grand Prix that Liu Yangyu participated in, in fact, all have factors that test the results of training and prepare for the Olympic Games.

It is Ye Qin, according to common sense, who is also inseparable from these preparations at this time.

But firstly, he needs to train with the relay team, secondly, he participates in more events, and he is the leading figure in the track and field events in this Olympic Games.

Several coaches actually knew that Ye Qin's requirements for participation were very reasonable, athletes needed to practice, and they also needed to compete, but a few people still had no way to make decisions at once.

Ye Qin breathed a sigh of relief in his heart after watching several coaches leave.

As the Olympics approached, he could feel more and more eyes falling on him, and he felt a faint feeling of being overwhelmed.

Now he is training in the General Training Bureau, and almost every day outside the track and field arena will gather some reporters to dig up any news from him, I am afraid that if he has a leg cramp on the track and jumps a few steps, the next day the media and newspapers may be full of news such as "Ye Qin is injured in training, and the results of the Olympic Games are unknown".

This is also the reason why the athletics management center has reduced his participation before the Olympics, in fact, it is not only him, many athletes have begun to reduce their participation this year, and focus more on training.

Under the pressure of public opinion and the expectations of countless people, there will really be some situations that affect the final competition before the Olympic Games, which will really outweigh the losses.

Ye Qin himself is not a little worried about being injured at this time, he knows more or less about Liu Yangyu's situation, injury is one thing, and there is also pressure like him.

However, Ye Qin felt that he still needed to participate in a few matches if he could.

One is to boost morale, just broke the world record, and it was surpassed in less than a week, which is really hurtful.

Moreover, he has never been a training player, but a competition player.

When training, the results often do not see a lot of improvement, it is a process of accumulation, and in the competition, the athletes of all parties are stimulated, and they are suddenly in a burst of state, and they are often able to play a stronger performance than their own strength.

He doesn't ask for much, it's the beginning of June, and there are still more than two months before the Olympics, so he can participate in two or three competitions in between, and he can be better prepared.

Moreover...... There was a faint thing called not admitting defeat burning in Ye Qin's eyes.

In fact, no matter what the reason is, it is actually the strength in his heart that does not admit defeat.

I just broke the world record in less than a week, and suddenly I was surpassed by someone else, which is really unpleasant.

"Would you like to take a break, or do you want another set of 600-meter super distances?"

Chen Zhongzhou next to him looked at Ye Qin, who was a little dazed, and shouted in a low voice after many coaches left.

"One more group!"

Ye Qin came back to his senses, nodded at Chen Zhongzhou, and stood on the runway with his hands crossed on his waist, with the occasional figure of his teammates rushing by, and in the distance, he was gradually familiar with the reckless sky in the north.

He took a soft breath and slowly walked up the track: "World record...... I still want to get it back! Even if the Olympics are coming! But I don't want to wait! ”

……

The results of the discussion within the track and field team also came out quickly, even faster than Ye Qin thought.

Most coaches actually know Ye Qin's idea of participating in the competition, and in previous seasons, in fact, Ye Qin was already competing abroad at this time.

This year, it's just because there is no need to continue to compete after breaking the men's 100m world record before, plus relay training and the Olympics are imminent, but now and many people, including Ye Qin, are holding back a lot of energy in their hearts.

Almost the next day, Feng Shuyong and Yu Weili, the two assistant coaches of the track and field team, found Ye Qin and finalized the competition that Ye Qin could go to.

June 12, Czech Republic, Ostrava, IAAF Grand Prix.
