In the next half month, Du Ke made every effort to prepare for the 2014 IAAF Diamond League. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

In the latest IAAF individual rankings on May 1, Duke's 100m, 200m, 400m, 800m, and high jump rankings are:

100 meters, 16th place.

200 meters, 12th place.

400 meters, 9th place.

800 meters, ranked 20th.

High Jump, ranked 15th.

In these five individual events, Duke is all ranked in the top 20 in the world, and all of them are qualified to participate in the Diamond League.

Duke did this year's SB in the 100m (9.85 seconds), 200m (19.89 seconds), 800m (1:41.66) and high jump (2.38m).

In athletics, SB is not a swear word, but an abbreviation for "season best".

In the live TV broadcast of athletics, we can often see some abbreviations or symbols:

PB, personal best.

SB, the best result of the season.

WR, World Record.

or, Olympic record.

AS, Asian Records.

Q, qualify for the promotion.

DQ, Disqualification.

o, done; x, failed; -, no jump.

When an athlete comes out to compete in a competition, the TV director often plays his PB and SB at the bottom of the screen.

The comparison between PB and SB can see the gap between the athlete's best result this year and his peak result, and can also roughly judge the athlete's state this year, of course, it should also be analyzed in combination with the overall world level of this year's event.

For example, Usain Bolt, whose PB in the 100m event is 9.58 seconds, has not participated in an official competition in 2014, so Bolt's SB in 2014 has not yet come out. Bolt's SB in 2013 was 9.77 seconds, 0.19 seconds slower than his PB.

Duke's 9.85 seconds, 19.89 seconds, 1:41.66, and 2.38 meters are both his PB and his 2014 season SB.

In addition, the four individual results of 9.85 seconds, 19.89 seconds, 1:41.66 and 2.38 meters are also the world's No. 1 results so far this year.

Of course, many of the top players in international athletics have not yet started to compete in official competitions, and as time goes on, the best results of the year in each individual event may be rewritten.

Duke participated in a number of track and field Grand Prix in March, which can be described as a world of points.

Duke's 100m points are the most brushed, but his 100m ranking is only 16th in the world, and the men's 100m is the most competitive.

Usain Bolt and Gatlin, their 100m points in 2013 both exceeded 2,000 points, multiplied by 30% and substituted for 2014, that also has 600+ annual initial points.

With 488 points in the 100m, Doucle is now in 16th place.

The 800m was quite hanging, and Duke was just stuck in 20th place, because he participated in the fewest 800m races and won the fewest 800m individual points.

The 2014 Diamond League starts on May 9 and ends on September 5, with a total of 14 tournaments throughout the year.

Each Diamond League is a one-day tournament with seven to eight events (seven or eight for men and women).

There is only one stop, the Diamond League in Glasgow on 11-12 July, which features 12 events for men and women and lasts for two days.

Duke registered for the men's 100m event in Doha on 9 May, which was also the opening race of the 2014 Diamond League season.

The men's seven events in Doha are: 400m hurdles, 100m, 1500m, 3000m hurdles, javelin, long jump and pole vault.

So Duke can only register 100 meters.

Before leaving for Doha, Duke got a new pair of running shoes.

It's a cool pair of red running shoes with a √ logo on the upper, and these running shoes were specially made by Nick for Duke.

Ma Jianguo, the head of Nickelodeon, held the red running shoes in the palm of his hand and proudly introduced the product: "This running shoe is the crystallization of the latest technology and the highest design level of Nickelodeon, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the best running shoe in the world." An excellent sprinter like Duke you can run 100 meters in more than 9 seconds, at a speed of about 40 kilometers per hour, and exchange your feet at a speed of 88 kilometers per hour. ”

"The arch of the shoe is made of space shuttle parachute material, and the instep is designed to be smooth, and the zipper seals the instep partially, so that there are no laces at all, and these designs are all based on relevant scientific principles to minimize the air resistance of the foot." As he spoke, Ma Jianguo unzipped his left shoe and demonstrated.

"Hey, it's high-end." Doucle took his right shoe and studied it.

Ma Jianguo turned the running shoe over, so that the sole was facing up, and continued to introduce the product features: "Du Ke, look at the sole, the nails of this running shoe are made of graphite fiber, which greatly reduces its total weight, and the weight of a shoe is only 98 grams, which is not two or two heavy. Doucle, put it on and go to rule the world! ”

"Old Ma, you're too suitable for sales." Duke also liked this running shoe, he liked the color very much, and the feel was very comfortable, the key is that the shoes are really light, what is the concept of 98 grams? Both eggs are heavier than 98 grams.

With so many high-tech materials used and the weight of this shoe controlled below 100 grams, Nick has also made a lot of money, and the research and development cost of this shoe must be very high.

Duke put on his new running shoes and ran a few rounds of 100 meters, 200 meters, 400 meters, straights, corners, straight up, straight in, all kinds of running styles.

"Yes, yes, I'm very satisfied with these running shoes, and thanks to your great support, I will wear them to the Diamond League." Duke was quite satisfied with his new boots, "But I have a doubt, you have made these shoes in a little more than a month?" Doesn't it mean that R&D has to be developed for half a year? ”

Ma Jianguo: "We have already done the R&D and design, material verification, and related tests of this shoe, and we can't hide it, this shoe was originally designed for Gatling. But unfortunately, Gatlin changed his mind at the last moment, and he renewed his contract with Reebok and did not sign with our company. We've handcrafted these running shoes based on the shape of your feet, the size of your feet, and the habitual range of your cadence and stride, and a month of time is enough to make. ”

Doucle: "Oh, thank you so much. Let me ask you a question, I'm a straightforward person, don't be surprised, if I don't renew my contract with your company after October 31st, then you'll take back these running shoes, right? ”

"No, it won't." Ma Jianguo shook his head, "This pair of shoes is given to you for nothing, in addition, we will also give you two pairs of identical running shoes as a backup." We don't have any other requirements, we just hope that you can shine in this year's Diamond League and create results that will shock the world. Of course, we are very eager to renew the contract with you, next year's endorsement fee can be negotiated, no matter how much others promise you endorsement fees, our offer will be 20% more than theirs, do you think it's okay? ”

Du Ke laughed: "Such a trench? Besides, isn't there nearly half a year left? "It seems that the Laureus Best Male Athlete is quite expensive.

On May 6, Duke left China by plane and flew to Doha, Qatar, where he was about to embark on the journey of the Diamond League. (To be continued.) )
