In previous years, Bolt did not participate in every race in the Diamond League, and in the 100-meter and 200-meter sub-stations, he would choose to participate in some races. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Among the international sprinters, Gatlin is the hardest worker, with a participation rate of more than 80%. Bolt's 40% participation rate is too much, but if it weren't for the sponsor contract and the fact that he has to play in several Diamond League events every year, Bolt's participation rate would be even lower, so it won't be easy to catch the big devil.

On May 31, the Diamond League in Eugene, USA began.

Venue: Assmand Stadium.

Competition Schedule:

18:00, Men's 1500m.

18:15, men's pole vault.

18:30, Men's 200m.

Then the women's event began.

At 20:30, the men's pole vault is almost over, and the men's 800m, men's triple jump, and men's shot put competitions will be held.

21:30, men's 400m.

All the men's and women's matches will be over around 10:30 p.m.

Duke arrived at the Asmander Stadium at 5 p.m., where he warmed up outside the stadium for a pre-match warm-up.

The warm-up field has a lawn and a 120-metre-long six-lane track.

Duke discovers that he is not the first athlete to come to the warm-up field, where a group of sprinters have gathered, and one of the black men in sunglasses is waving to him.

Duke walked up to the man in sunglasses, shook his hand, and greeted him in English: "Hello, Justin, we meet again." ”

The man in the sunglasses was none other than Justin Gatling, who pushed the sunglasses up, put them on his forehead, and said enthusiastically, "Welcome to America." ”

A small black man next to him muttered, "He's been to the United States once, March 23, Los Angeles." ”

Duke smiled and shook hands with the little black man: "Hello, Trawang, it's a pleasure to meet you. ”

The little black man Trawang Bromel said to Ducco: "From Lisbon to Los Angeles, from Los Angeles to Doha, and now to Eugene, why do you go wherever I go?" ”

Du Ke: "That's all we can participate in international events, and we'll see each other more often in the future." ”

Bromel was a little unconvinced: "Du, I won't lose to you again this time...... Although the 200m is not my main event. ”

Duke patted Bromel's arm: "Good luck." ”

Duke and Gatlin and Bromel played each other in the 100m event, and they knew each other.

When it was over, Gatlin called two black teammates to introduce them to Duke, "Curtis Mitchell, Isaiah Young, in a little more than an hour, we'll be playing together." ”

Duke shook hands with Mitchell and Isaiah Young, who are also strong athletes in the men's 200m event in the United States.

Gatlin, Bromell, Mitchell and Isaiah Young, the four American athletes will compete in the men's 200m race in Eugene, and all but Bromel, who focuses on the 100m, will have a PB of under 20 seconds.

Gatlin, who was born in '82, is the eldest brother in this group of American players, Isaiah Young and Bromel are post-90s, and Mitchell is 89. Although the coaching teams of the several of them are different, when they get together, Gatlin, the oldest and most senior, is respected as the eldest by several other little brothers.

The U.S. Sprinters chatted with Duke for a few more words, and then they went to the track for a warm-up exercise for the 80-meter run.

Duke was about to start warming up when he noticed a large black man sitting on the grass 10 meters in front of him on the left, waving at him.

The big black man with a hat and earplugs in his ears is warming up his legs while listening to music, and he is Bolt.

Bolt sat two other black men on the left and right, wearing similar yellow-and-green sports coats, which are different versions of the Jamaican jersey.

The three Jamaican sprinters did the same thing by wrapping a bungee cord around the soles of their feet and pulling the bungee cord back hard to move their Achilles tendons.

Duke walked up to Bolt and sat down on the grass, waving at Bolt and the other two Jamaican athletes: "Hi Eusain, Warren, Jason, hello. ”

Usain is Usain Bolt, and Duke met him at the Laureus Awards Gala on March 26.

Warren Weir, 25, is currently ranked second in the world in the men's 200m.

Jason Young, 23, is currently ranked fifth in the world in the men's 200m.

Although he had never dealt with Will and Jason Young in real life, Duke recognized the two top 5 in the 200m event at a glance.

The top1 is of course Usain Bolt, the third is also a Jamaican athlete Ashmeade, the diligent Gatlin is currently ranked 4th in the world in the men's 200m individual event, and Duke is ranked 12th in the world.

"I finally have a chance to compete with you." Bolt took out the earbuds and said to Douc.

Du Ke smiled: "I should have said this to you, right?" ”

Bolt had a funny look on his face: "Who made you the best male athlete?" ”

Du Ke made a frightened look: "Please be merciful." ”

Bolt suddenly shook his head solemnly: "No way. ”

Duke couldn't help but laugh, Bolt's serious appearance was really funny.

"Haha." Bolt himself laughed, and then said: "Run as much as you want, after all, this is not the final of the Olympics and the World Championships, it is better to relax, and see you later." ”

After a few more chats with the Jamaican Sprinters, Duke also began to warm up.

Usain Bolt usually seems to play very chic, and the image he shows to the public outside the arena is mainly light-hearted and funny, which is a picture that people can see. But in some of the images that people don't see, Bolt trains harder than anyone else.

Including Gatlin, a 32-year-old veteran, his training volume is not lower than that of the post-90s youth, otherwise it will be difficult to maintain the current good form.

Gatlin, Mitchell, Isaiah Young, Bromell, Usain Bolt, Will, Jason Young, the four American runners + the three Jamaican athletes, are Duke's opponents in the men's 200m race in Eugene.

There was no preliminaries in the men's 200m race, and the above eight athletes directly competed to determine the ranking.

With the exception of Bromere, the other six athletes are ranked higher than Douc in the men's 200m, with their PB and last season's SB both under 20 seconds.

Against these top players, Duke ran 19.9 seconds and may not even be able to get the top three, and he can only be competitive if he runs his 200m PB time of 19.89 seconds or faster.

In a shot of 200 meters, most of these masters can run within 20 seconds, run a shot for 20 seconds, and the warm-up activities will not be less than 1 hour, otherwise not only will they not run the best results, but also increase the chance of injury.

Usain Bolt, Gatlin and other top professional sprinters, they are very serious about warm-up activities. The U.S. team is warming up for a sprint within 80 meters, while the Jamaican team is moving on the Achilles tendon and ligaments.

Duke began to perform low-to-medium frequency single-leg jumps, double-leg jumps, jumps on the spot, hand touches and other jump-up warm-up activities, sprinting training includes warm-up and not only running and running, jumping warm-up can open the sprinter's leg small muscle groups.

After the four members of the U.S. team completed the section run warm-up, Duke also got on the warm-up track and ran several rounds of section runs of 80 meters or more, moving his whole body.

At 6 p.m., Duke heard a commotion at the Asmande Stadium, presumably the start of the men's 1500m race.

At 6:15 p.m., Duke left the warm-up field and entered the call-room, waiting for admission.

At 6:25 p.m., all eight men's 200m runners, including Du Ke, gathered in the standby room and changed into their sports shorts and running shoes.

When they were warming up outside, Bolt and Gatlin were still talking and laughing with Duke, but now everyone stopped laughing, and the tension before the game suddenly increased.

These pros are like that, we can call each other brothers and joke with each other off the court, and once they are in a state of imminent battle, they are more serious than anyone else.

At this time, it was close to 6:30 p.m., and the staff in the standby room informed the eight players to line up for entry.

Everyone lined up according to the number of lanes of the game, with Duke on the 8th trail at the head, Bromel behind the 1st lane, and Bolt and Gatlin in the middle.

Du Ke led the seven fierce generals behind him and trotted into the arena...... (To be continued.) )
