Chapter 159: Arrival in Valencia

In the middle of March, the Chinese track and field team started the journey of international competitions, this time to participate in the 13th track and field championships held in Valencia, 11 athletes plus coaches, team doctors and administrative staff, this time the Chinese delegation is only 30 people, which is a small team.

The actual indoor athletics championships began in the eighties, when the city of Paris, France, hosted the first competition. Since then, it has been held every two years, and by the beginning of this century, it had a certain scale and was valued by countries all over the world.

However, because the World Indoor Athletics Championships coincided with the Outdoor World Championships, and there were no major competitions in even-numbered years, the IAAF decided to have two consecutive editions in 2003 and 2004, and then a biennial edition.

This ensures that there are world-class athletics competitions that attract wide attention every year.

When the plane entered the Iberian Peninsula and went to the sky over Valencia City, Lu Wei forgot to go out through the porthole, and the suburbs of Valencia City were covered with large areas of verdant green. When the plane approached, I realized that the low, round green vegetation was all orange trees.

As the largest producer of oranges in Europe, Valencia Orange City is well deserved.

After getting off the plane, Shen Liang was about to fly excitedly: "I'm going, it's so peculiar, I feel like I've come to another world!" ”

On the plane, he was also excited to see Valencia, and when he got off the plane, he was amazed by the buildings outside the airport: "Wow! The more you look at these buildings, the more they look like ancient castles, and there is a feeling of being in the Middle Ages! ”

Not only Shen Liang, but also Lu Wei and Wang Qiao and other coaches and players who came to Valencia City for the first time had excitement in their eyes.

"That domed complex is the central square of Valencia, and the city is full of oranges because the soil is suitable for growing high-quality oranges, and when it is almost ripe, the staff will carry a ladder to pick the ripe oranges, so as not to hit passers-by when the ripe fruit falls to the ground, which is very interesting!"

Liu Feiren is also very happy, the temperature in this place is even higher than that of the Haigeng base during the day. The average daytime temperature is around 15 to 20 degrees, and you can even see people wearing short sleeves in the city.

After making a slight adjustment to the hotel near the gymnasium, the members of the track and field team soon arrived at the Louis Pugue Gymnasium near the hotel, which feels very spacious and is said to be able to accommodate more than 6,500 spectators.

During this time, it is still the time of the national team training camp, and the national teams of all projects are conducting closed training camps. Although they were able to come out of the game to change their feelings, these 11 players entered active preparations without being supervised.

In fact, the role of the indoor championships is to help the team members quickly enter the new year's competition state, the track and field competition will basically end after October every year, the team members will adjust at the end of the year, and then continue to train in the next year.

At the beginning of the year, the physical condition of the players was underestimated, and it was difficult to mobilize the excitement of the body.

Everyone did not deliberately reduce the amount of training, as long as there was enough physical fitness and condition in the game, and did not deliberately reduce the amount of training.

"At that time, when the leader informed me that there was me on the competition list, I felt that it was very troublesome to go abroad to compete at this time, and the round-trip journey delayed time and affected the rhythm of training, but I didn't expect to feel good after coming here!"

Li Meiju, a shot put player, was talking to her coach in the interval between practice, her smile was always on her face, and she could feel it, and everyone was very excited when she arrived at the new competition venue.

Although the scenery of the seaside is also good, but after staying in one place for a few months, no matter how beautiful the scenery is, it will show aesthetic fatigue.

Indoor track and field competitions will also be based on the results of track and field athletes in the previous year combined with the invitation system to attract athletes, because of the difference between indoor competitions and competitions, many outdoor top athletes in the long and short run will not choose to participate in this competition.

The outdoor 400-meter lap became a 200-meter field, and many technical moves had to be changed during the race.

For example, many sprinters who are good at the future are reluctant to participate in the indoor championships, and some team members who have a better start are more interested in indoor races.

Recently, Lu Wei and Shen Liang have returned to the level of fierce competition, and the coach has concentrated the short-distance training items of the two people at a distance of 30 meters, which is very difficult for Lu Wei to win Shen Liang, of course, it is impossible for Shen Liang to beat Lu Wei now.

However, in the competition with Shen Liang, Lu Wei's winning rate was at a disadvantage, and Shen Liang became an invincible appearance in the past two days.

"Lu Wei, you have to work hard! I've run two steps, and you haven't landed the first step yet, I'm anxious for you! ”

Shen Liang put his hands in his hands and frowned, looking like a veteran player guiding a new player.

"! Your two calves together are not as long as my legs, and of course they move faster! Lu Wei heard Shen Liang's words, turned around and walked over with a sneer, this smile always made Shen Liang feel creepy.

While Lu Wei hadn't approached yet, he quickly put his two hands off his waist, and when Lu Wei approached, he turned around and ran.

Such scenes happened from time to time, and every time the athletes training on the field would laugh, and later players from other countries also came, and the way the two people communicated still did not change.

"Alas! It hurts, Lu Wei lightly, there will be a game tomorrow, if I get injured, you will be responsible for the consequences! ”

When Shen Liang was watching the Yanmar on the field, he was careless and let Lu Wei grab his neck.

"I'm going to see what happens to me!"

Lu Wei said with a playful expression on his face, and he dragged Shen Liang's face like a pillar.

"There are so many foreigners, how bad it is for you to make me like this, you have to consciously maintain our international image!"

At this time, seeing that Shen Liang was still vibrant, Lu Wei separated his legs and pressed them against the pillar, spinning around the pillar like a grinding.

"Lu Wei, I am a single heirloom for several generations, if you make a mistake with my lower body, you will be responsible for history!"

Lu Wei saw that Shen Liang was still a dead duck in a pot, and his whole body was rotten, but his mouth was not rotten, so he began to speed up.

The audience could hear Shen Liang's cries of forgiveness and screams!

Jiang Jianjun shook his head helplessly at this time: "It seems that I am really old, and I am becoming more and more incomprehensible to the children now!" ”

"The fact that you can still play around before the World Series also shows that the psychological quality of the players before the competition is good, and as for the type of game, it is a little vulgar, but it is also fun!" Director Sun looked at these two people with a smile, and then looked at Liu Feiren, who was still doing stretching exercises.

"It's a good thing to not be stressed sometimes!"
