In the middle distance event, the United States is not the strongest, and they prefer the thrill of sprinting. As for the rest of the Americas, there is also a lack of top athletes in the middle distance running, and it can be said that the middle distance running events in the entire Americas can only be considered in the upper middle range.

In the pattern of distance running in the world, it is the pattern of West Asia, Africa and Europe.

In Europe, the United Kingdom, France, Italy and other sports powerhouses have very good middle-distance runners, of course, all of them are black runners, because these countries have a history of colonizing Africa, so there are some good black athletes in their own countries. In countries such as Germany, which colonized late, there are fewer black people in their own countries, so there are not too many black athletes, and there are no very good runners in the middle running event.

African countries have always been the cradle of middle-distance runners, among which Kenya, Morocco and Algeria are all traditional powerhouses of middle-distance running, and they are also the main exporters of athletes. The main export of athletes from African countries is the Gulf countries of West Asia.

Middle-distance running is also a traditional strength of West Asian countries, and the climate and eating habits of West Asia are relatively easy to create middle runners, and the arrival of the African Naturalization Corps is even more powerful for West Asian countries. The physical talent of the African Naturalization Corps, coupled with the material security and training level of West Asian countries, has created a strong strength in West Asian middle running in recent years.

And when it comes to sprinters in West Asia, one has to mention Rashid Ramz.

Originally from Morocco, Rashid Ramz began athletics in order to escape poverty, like many African track and field athletes. Although Morocco is a West African country, the main ethnic group is Arab, and the official language is Arabic, so Ramz applied for Bahraini citizenship at the age of 18 and also served in the military for Bahrain. In the years that followed, he quickly rose to become one of the top middle runners in the world.

At the Athens Olympics, Ramz was the favorite to win the 1500m event. However, he withdrew in the semi-finals due to physical discomfort, which unfortunately ended his first Olympic journey. However, at the 2005 World Athletics Championships, Ramz won the world championships in the 800m and 1500m events, becoming the king of middle running.

Ramz then took a break from injury and only returned in the second half of 2006, after participating in the Athletics World Cup more to adjust his form, and now Ramz's form has almost returned to his peak.

At this time, before the starting line, Ramz closed his eyes tightly, and his mind kept coming to mind Coach Virgil's instructions.

"After a start. Don't care about the other runners, don't run along, just lead the race to the end of the race! ”

Ramz opened his eyes, and he felt that what Coach Virgil said was indeed the best tactic for him. If there is any player who has the strength to lead the race until the end of the race, it is probably Ramz, who is definitely the best in the world.

At the same time, Zhang Guan also casually glanced at Ramz, because Zhang Guan knew that Ramz would be the biggest obstacle in his 1500m event.

In the past two years, Zhang Guan has participated in many international track and field competitions. He has also met Ramz many times, and Zhang Guan has witnessed Ramz win many championships in middle-distance running events, so Zhang Guan naturally knows that Ramz has the world's top strength in the 1500 meters, and more importantly, in Zhang Guan's memory. The next Olympic champion in the 1500m was Ramz.

"I still think I watched that race, and I remember Ramz being the leader and winning the championship by a huge margin. It was an Olympic competition, and the real powerhouses were like clouds. There are many more high-caliber athletes than in the Asian Games, and Ramz was able to lead the way to the final to win the championship, and his strength is indeed far superior to that of other athletes. That being the case. I'll be staring at Ramz for a moment, and that's probably the best deal. ”

Zhang Guan instantly formulated a tactic for himself in this game, that is, to run closely behind Ramz.

……

In this match, Qatar had two players in the final, namely Najim and Sulaiman, so the atmosphere in the stadium was very enthusiastic, and the crowd was expecting a gold medal from the local Qatari player, among other things. Bahrain's Ali, Saudi Arabia's Savin, Japan's Shiwa Kobayashi, and Iran's Mudira, who had previously played against Zhang Guan in the preliminaries, also entered the finals.

In addition to the two Bahraini players, the two Qatari players are also very strong, and they must have some advantages when they are playing at home, so Najim and Sulaiman also have a high demand for the championship. Saudi Arabia's Savin and Iran's Mudirlah are relatively weaker, and they can thank God for winning a medal, while others such as Kobayashi Shiwa and others, although they are the strongest in the 1500m in their respective countries, but in this field, they probably only have to accompany the runner.

Qatari native Sulaiman enjoyed the cheers of the home crowd and said to his compatriot Bashar Nagim: "I played against Ramz in the preliminary round, and I feel that he is not back to his peak form, and we have a chance to win this game!" Your 1500m is better than mine, and I'll help you open the way when you race. ”

Najim nodded: "We are playing at home, and of course we are aiming to win this championship!" But in addition to Ramz, we also have to be careful about Zhang Guan. In the previous preliminaries, I was in the same group as Zhang Guan, and he was very fast in the final sprint, almost surpassing me in the blink of an eye. I didn't give it my all, but to be honest, I've never seen anyone run so fast in the final stages of the 1500m! ”

"Don't worry about Zhang Guan, after all, he is a sprinter, he has more explosiveness than us, and it is normal for him to sprint fast at the end. In the preliminaries, everyone's strength was retained, so Zhang Guan would still have so much physical strength to sprint in the end. But now it's the finals, I think that whether it's Ramzi, Ali, or Savin, they won't be able to preserve their strength anymore, maybe they will run halfway through, and Zhang Guan's physical strength won't be able to hold on! Suleiman paused, and then said: "You see that Zhang Guanlun is much taller than us, and his weight must be higher, and his physical exertion will definitely be much higher than ours. ”

"But judging from the video of the preliminaries, Zhang Guan seems to be very good at following and running." Najim spoke.

Suleiman smiled slightly: "Then let's run faster, so that he can't keep up!" ”

Meanwhile, Bella Mansor Ali, who doesn't know her real age, is also standing with Ramz.

"Bella, you have to keep up in a moment, or I'll be thrown far away!" Ramz spoke.

"Hold up? Throw off a long way? Ali was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood Ramz's intentions, and he asked with some surprise: "Rashid, do you want to take the lead?" ”

Ramz nodded, and continued, "You should know what it means for me to be in the lead!" ”

Ali suddenly gasped, this is a more physical job, Ramz is a world's top player, if he chooses to lead, he must plan to lead all the way to the finish.

Seeing Ramz's confident expression, Ali seemed to feel that last year's king of middle runners was back. I saw Ali Zhen nod solemnly: "Rashid, I will try my best to keep up with you!" ”

……

The time for athletes to prepare passed quickly, and with a gunshot, the final of the men's 1500m at the Doha Asian Games officially began.

"It's game on! The runners started to cut to the innermost track, huh? Ramz! Look at Ramz! The narrator's voice instantly drew attention to Ramz.

After running together, Ramz began to speed up in a straight line instead of merging inward, and by the time 70 meters had passed, Ramz was already in the lead, and then he began to lead towards the innermost track. With Ramz's technique, he moved to the innermost track and got stuck just in front of the runner in second place.

At this time, the second place happened to be Iran's Mudillah, who grabbed a relatively leading position after the start of the game, but he didn't want to lead, because leading is a very physically demanding thing, so Mudira saw Ramz coming, and did not compete with Ramz for the position, but simply took advantage of the situation and let Ramz occupy the leading position.

"Ramz is deliberately taking the lead! Does he want to lead to the end? Qatar's Suleiman immediately understood Ramz's intentions, he looked at his teammate Najim and asked with his eyes whether to follow or not, and Najim immediately understood and issued a code to follow.

At this time, in the broadcast hall of CCTV, the guest Director Sun also saw the clue, and only heard him speak: "It seems that Ramz is very confident in his state, and he rushed to the front as soon as he came up, if my guess is correct, Ramz is likely to lead the whole way to the finish line." ”

"Director Sun, we all know that in the middle and long-distance running, the leader needs to spend more physical strength, so if you lead the whole process to the end, does it mean that the physical strength is also very huge?" The narrator immediately asked.

"Yes, so only the strong ones have the ability to lead the way to the finish. As for whether Ramz is going to do this at the moment, we still need to observe and see if Ramz wants to speed up next. Director Sun explained.

But as soon as Director Sun's voice fell, Ramz really sped up. (To be continued.) )
