Volume 3 The King of Athletics Chapter 72 Sprint, Catch Up, Overtake! (Three more requests for a monthly pass)

In the studio, Michael Johnson frowned.

"Why hasn't Zhang Guan accelerated yet? If he didn't speed up at this point in time, he would have been one second behind the first place in the last 100 meters. What kind of running is this? Although his performance in terms of speed is still quite rough, if he runs like this, Zhang Guan's final score will definitely exceed 46 seconds! Or it could be even slower. He had run 44.50 seconds before, and it is impossible for an athlete of this level to run more than 1.5 seconds. ”

Johnson suddenly remembered the previous 100-meter trapeze battle, and then thought: "Is it because of physical strength?" The previous game consumed a lot of Zhang Guan's physical strength, so if you want to sprint now, you can't rush it? If that's the case, it's a shame! ”

Although the running style with the same rhythm can save physical strength, in this high-level confrontation, if there is no advantage in the early stage and the time point of the later sprint is too late, the question is not to win or lose the race, but how much time will be lost.

Obviously, Zhang Guan's current situation is that he has no advantage in the early stage, and the time node of the sprint is relatively late. At a normal pace, everyone can already start guessing how much time Zhang Guan will lose.

260 meters, 270 meters, 280 meters. Just then, Jamaica's Simpson began to pick up the pace. The Simpson still used the more traditional style of running, sprinting on the first straight track, slowing down and adjusting as he entered the corner. Athletes who sprint in the second corner typically spend around 10.7 seconds between 200m and 300m, while Simpson spends more than 11.5 seconds on this stretch. However, after adjustment, he will also run faster than other competitors in the final 100m sprint, which can make up for the previous disadvantage, and even complete the overtake at the last moment. The faster the athlete is and the more explosive the running will be, and the more powerful it will be.

Simpson, who was still ahead of Zhang, made a sprint after entering the first straight, and had a roughly 0.3-second advantage over that distance. In the subsequent corner adjustment, his advantage was not only erased by other players, but was overtaken a lot. But compared to Zhang Guan, who has the same rhythm, Simpson still has a 0.3-second advantage.

Finally, Zhang Guan also ran to a position of about 280 meters, and he decisively removed the skill of "incomplete sprint activation" and began to sprint with all his might.

In the past, Zhang Guan chose to start sprinting after 300 meters, but today Zhang Guan used a stamina potion, and his physical strength was more abundant, so he chose to sprint early.

"Is it just starting to speed up now? It's late! The gap is too big. It is impossible to catch up in the last 100 meters. He really didn't have enough physical strength, so he sprinted much later! Michael Johnson sighed lightly.

In the last 100 meters, the world's best athletes can run within 11.5 seconds, and Zhang Guan is currently almost 1 second behind the leading athletes, so Zhang Guan must run extremely close to 10 seconds in the last 100 meters to be able to complete the overtake. In the 400-meter sprint, by the last 100 meters, the athletes were exhausted and could not run close to 10 seconds.

At the forefront. It wasn't Varina who got into the straight line first, it was Bahamian Christopher Brown, and behind Brown, Harris of the United States and Taylor of Canada entered the straight almost at the same time.

Whoever gets into the final straight first. Whoever is in the lead, and the current situation is that Brown is ahead of Varina, followed by Harris and Taylor.

Although behind, Varina did not panic in the slightest. He'd been in this situation too many times, and he still couldn't match the black athlete in terms of speed and explosiveness, even though he was technically great. But he rarely leads when entering the final straight track, but in the sprint of the last straight track, he can always maintain a high speed, which is his best and most powerful weapon, so it is his forte to overtake in the final sprint, and then take a big lead to cross the finish line.

I saw Varina start to sprint, although his pace frequency could not be said to be very fast, but he was able to maintain a fast pace, he slowly caught up with Brown, went neck with him, slowly overtook him, and then pulled away.

"Wow...... Oh! At this moment, the long audience suddenly burst into exclamations, followed by the sound of tumbling cheers.

"I overtook Brown and now I'm number one and the crowd is cheering me on! Cheers for me! Varina thought to herself. Varina felt that the exclamation was sounding for him to overtake Brown, and the cheer was cheering for his upcoming championship!

"Jeremy, don't stop, speed up! Hasten! At the fastest speed! He's catching up! Coach Gat shouted at Varina frantically, but the crowd was so loud that Varina didn't hear Coach Gart's shouts at all.

Who is "he" by Coach Gat? Zhang Guan, of course!

At 280 meters, Zhang Guan began to accelerate, and when he entered the straight runway, the speed he showed was no longer what the 400 meters could have.

Then he easily overtook the previous competitor, then quickly approached the next man, and then completed the overtake.

All this happened in the blink of an eye, no one reacted, and the spectators who were originally paying attention to Varina suddenly saw a figure rushing out from behind, much faster than the others, and involuntarily exclaimed, and when Zhang Guan surpassed one athlete after another, this most exciting scene was staged, making the audience start to cheer. So the cheers just now were not for Varina, the audience was cheering for Zhang Guan.

But all this is not visible to Varina, who is running at the front.

Michael Johnson's eyes widened in the studio, even though he was the world record holder in the 200m and 400m, even though he was a legendary flyer, even though he had a long sports career, even if he stood at the top of the world for a long time, he still couldn't understand that Zhang Guan was able to explode so fast at the last moment.

In the 200-meter sprint, if an athlete can run within 20 seconds, the time he spends in the next 100 meters is about 9.7 seconds, and Zhang Guan's current speed is about the speed of an Olympic B-standard 200-meter runner in the next 100 meters, that is, Zhang Guan is currently using the sprint speed of the 200-meter sprint to sprint the 400-meter sprint.

"How can it be so fast? It's been 300 meters in front, hasn't he exerted his physical strength in front? If I had been able to run at this speed in the final sprint, I might have been able to run 42 seconds! Johnson couldn't stop complaining.

It wasn't just Michael Johnson who was surprised, but all the athletes and coaches who watched were amazed, no one had ever been able to run this kind of speed in the final sprint of the 400m, and everyone was stunned.

The first to come to his senses was Coach Hart, who instantly realized that if Zhang Guan sprinted at this speed, he might catch up with Varina in the end, so he immediately shouted to remind Varina to speed up.

……

Jamaican veteran Blackwood, the slowest athlete in the final 100 meters, had just been overtaken by compatriot Simpson when he lamented that the years were unforgiving, when another figure dangled from his right.

"What's that? It's a person! Blackwood didn't see it clearly for a while, and then he looked at it and found that it was Zhang Guan who had just passed, and Zhang Guan had caught up with Simpson at this time.

Simpson, who had adjusted in the corners, was much better than the rest of the race, and he had just passed Blackwood with ease and was ready to pursue the man in front of him. But at this moment, someone on the right suddenly overtook him.

"Who is it? It's Zhang Guan! How could he be so fast? Simpson's mind went blank.

Blackwood, Simpson, Harris, Taylor...... Zhang Guan overtook one competitor after another and finally caught up with Bahamian star Christopher Brown in second place.

There have been many encounters between Brown and Varina, but Brown has never beaten Varina. This time, Brown played in the Golden League in the hope of beating Varina. And in the early middle of the race, he was in good shape, and even led at one point as he entered the final straight. But after that, he was overtaken by Varina.

"Come on! Stop! Faster! Catch up with Varina! Brown kept cheering himself on, but in fact he also knew that at this distance, he could no longer catch up with Varina.

Zhang Guan ran from the outermost to overtake Brown, although Brown noticed that something seemed to be dangling next to him, but he didn't pay attention, and near the end, his attention was focused on overtaking Varina.

"Varina is coming to the finish line, it's over, I can't catch up with him!" Brown watched Varina run to the finish line, by which time he had given up the chase, and at that moment, Brown suddenly realized that on the outermost track, a runner in a red tracksuit looked as if he was going toe-to-toe with Varina.

"It's Zhang Guan! When did he catch up! I see, it was Zhang Guan who just dangled past me! Brown's eyes widened in surprise as he noticed that both men had made the move to cross the line.

"Who will win?"

……

The crowd was cheering for Zhang Guan, who was overtaking from last place and finally catching up with Varina in first place before the finish.

Varina, who was running in front, had no idea, thinking it was the enthusiastic Norwegian crowd cheering him on.

"Rejoice! Let's get excited! I'm about to cross the finish line! Applause be more violent! ”

With only five meters to go, Varina is already enjoying the joy of being a winner.

However, it was at this time that Zhang Guan caught up and went hand in hand with Varina.

At this moment, Varina was shocked. (To be continued.) )
