Zhang Guan followed Powell's voice and saw a young black man who was taller than himself, he was very thin, but very strong, he looked young, not as old as Powell looked, but when he smiled, he showed a mouthful of snow-white teeth.

"Sure enough, it's Usain Bolt!" Zhang Guan said secretly in his heart, and at the same time he looked at Bolt carefully, and found that Bolt at this time had no change in appearance except that he was thinner.

"I didn't expect to meet Bolt so soon! With two years to go until the next Olympics, Bolt should be just a 200m athlete who has not yet started the 100m sprint. Zhang Guan's mind appeared about Bolt's information.

Powell, who was on the other side, waved at Bolt and motioned for Bolt to come over, and at the same time said to Zhang Guan: "His name is Usain Bolt, and he specializes in the 200-meter sprint." Our entire Jamaican team knows that he's a big fan of yours, and even the dorm room is plastered with your posters! ”

"Usain Bolt is a fan of mine?" Zhang Guan suddenly felt dizzy, in his previous life, during the 2008 Olympic Games, Zhang Guan regarded Bolt as an idol, but he didn't expect that now there was a position change, and Zhang Guan became Bolt's idol.

Bolt saw Zhang Guan and Powell sitting together, and remembered Powell's ugly face just now, so he didn't dare to come over immediately, but when Powell waved to him, Bolt immediately rushed over at a trot.

"Eugain, haven't you always wanted to know Zhang Guan? Today, I will introduce Zhang Guan to you. Powell said and picked up the buffet plate: "You eat slowly, I'll go back and rest first." ”

But as soon as he took two steps, Powell turned around and spoke; "I suddenly remembered that you also signed up for the long jump! I suggest you take a look at the timing of this contest if you have the time, it seems to be a bad thing for you. ”

……

Usain Bolt seemed very excited, and the Jamaican's natural optimism and natural enthusiasm were vividly exerted by Bolt, which made Zhang Guan very uncomfortable.

"At the Athens Olympics, I watched you on TV. I saw you beat Gatlin, beat Green, beat Powell, and then won the championship and broke the world record! I dreamed of competing with you one day! However, the coach did not allow me to practice the 100-meter dash. Fortunately, in this Athletics World Cup, you participated in the 200m race, and I was finally able to compete with you! Bolt said with a fluttering eyebrow.

"Didn't you practice 100 meters?" Zhang Guan opened his mouth to confirm.

Bolt immediately replied: "The coach said that if I can win a medal in this Athletics World Cup, I will be allowed to try the 100 meters." However, my teammates said that I was not suitable for the 100m, they thought I was too tall and too thin to look like a 100m athlete. They thought I should be better suited to run the 400 meters. ”

"How do you know if you're suitable if you don't try it?" Zhang Guan said.

"yes, that's what I thought!" Bolt's eyebrows suddenly fluttered more and more: "I was thinking, your original focus was the 100-meter dash, but in the 400-meter event, you can beat Varina and break Johnson's world record." As a 200m athlete, I should also try the 100m dash. ”

"Uh......" Zhang Guan suddenly smiled helplessly, he didn't expect to run 400 meters, which actually strengthened Bolt's confidence in practicing 100 meters, which is equivalent to cultivating a strong opponent for himself. I don't know if it's good or bad.

……

After the meal, Zhang Guan remembered that Powell said that the schedule was not good for him, so he immediately went to find the schedule of this Athletics World Cup and took a closer look. It's really bad for yourself.

The competition started on September 16, Athens time, and among the four events Zhang Guan participated in, the first was the long jump, which started at 19:35. Then came the men's 100m final. The time was 19:40, and the difference between the two events was only 5 minutes. Counting athlete preparation time, warm-up time, playing time, etc., the two events can be said to overlap in time.

The men's 400m final is held at 20:00 sharp. But this time. The long jump final is definitely underway, which means that the 400m and long jump also overlap.

In addition, the 100-meter and 400-meter races are only 20 minutes apart, which means that Zhang Guan needs to complete the three races in half an hour.

"What the hell is this schedule, it's clear that you're cheating me! The 20 minutes between the 100m and the 400m are a bit of a lot, but it doesn't really matter to me, but there's a long jump final in between, and I don't know how to do it, which is a bit of a problem. Zhang Guan muttered silently in his heart.

"According to the rules of the competition, in the long jump competition, if the athlete participates in other competitions at the same time or has an unexpected situation that causes him to be late, with the permission of the referee, he can be the last to appear, and if he can't, he can apply to the referee for the last appearance. But if it's too late to play in the end, this round of trial jumping will be considered a failure. So I would probably have to give up one, two, or even three, of the six jumps in the competition! And I have to make sure I make sure I get to the top eight in the first three jumps! ”

"In the jumping competition, every attempt is extremely precious, and if you try a few times less than other competitors, the disadvantage is really big, so I have to make the most of every attempt. But the strength of the opponent is not weak, that Panamanian Saladino can jump 8.7 meters strongman, and it looks like he has to strengthen his strength in the long jump. ”

Zhang Guan took a deep breath, then entered the system's virtual mall, and then found the long jump shoes in the shoes column.

"10 skill points, buy a long jump shoe, after equipping this long jump shoe in the system, the strength of the long jump will definitely be further improved!" Zhang Guan thought silently.

In track and field, different shoes are used for different events, such as running shoes and long jump shoes, although they are both spiked shoes, but there are still differences. In general, running shoes are lighter than long jump shoes, but long jump shoes are better shock absorbent than running shoes, and long jump shoes have a thicker heel and pay more attention to the protection of the ankle.

At the same time in terms of nails on the soles. There are also differences between the two. Running shoes have spikes on the forefoot, jumping shoes have spikes on the front and back soles, and running shoes generally use thin spikes, while jumping shoes use round spikes. In the actual competition, according to the difference in the player's starting feet and technical characteristics, the number of nails in the sole is also different.

Of course, the long jump shoes in the system are not so complicated, after all, they are just a virtual item equipped in the system, not a physical object, so under the judgment of the system, the equipped jump shoes only strengthen the effect of jumping sports.

……

September 16th. The 10th Athletics World Cup has officially begun.

Surprisingly, the Asian team won the first gold medal in the Athletics World Cup. The gold medal was won by Japanese hammer thrower Hiroharu Murofushi, who won the men's hammer throw gold medal with a score of 82.01m. The world hammer throw champion came in second with a score of 80 meters.

Subsequently, the shot put, pole vault, high jump, 400-meter hurdles, and 1500-meter competitions were carried out one after another, and the medals began to be distributed to the participating teams, such as the American Clement won the 400-meter hurdles, the first place in the shot put was Ralph of the European team, and the men's 1500-meter championship was won by Alex of the African team.

In the studio, the host and guests are discussing the just-concluded women's 100m race. In the women's 100m race. Jamaican flyer Simpson won the title by a landslide.

"Simpson looks really good and there is no doubt about the women's 100m title! The Simpson also won four tournaments in this year's Golden League and are just one step away from the ultimate Gold Prize. Both of her defeats were due to Marion Jones. I don't think Simpson might have had it so easy to get this gold if it hadn't been for Marion Jones' withdrawal! One of the commentators spoke.

Another guest next to him continued: "I really didn't expect Marion Jones to be back for only three months. Once again, he was caught in a doping scandal, and if it was true this time, he might really be banned for life! ”

"Okay, thank you both for your post-game comments." The moderator was clearly reluctant to dwell too much on the issue of doping. Instead, he brought the conversation back to the competition and continued: "Now let's focus on the long jump, and then the final of the men's long jump. There are 14 competitors in the long jump competition at the World Cup in Athletics, two more than the World Championships in Athletics or the Olympic Games, but the rules are still the same, after each competitor tries three times, the top eight athletes can try three more jumps! I think with two more players, the competition should be even more brutal and intense! ”

In the World Athletics Championships or the Olympic Games, due to the large number of competitors, the long jump event will give priority to the qualifying round, and most of the athletes will be eliminated first, leaving the best 12 athletes to enter the finals. In today's long jump competition of the Athletics World Cup, there are only 14 athletes in total, which is only two more than normal, and it is only five minutes more than the competition time, so there is no need to hold a special qualifying tournament.

As the host's voice fell, the order of the athletes appeared on the broadcast screen.

"What you can see below is the order of the players. I think there is one player in this list that everyone didn't expect, and he is Zhang Guan! Our king of sprints! The host's voice raised a few points at the right time.

"It's really unbelievable that Zhang Guan has to compete in four events, 100m, 200m, 400m and long jump! To be honest, I'm really looking forward to Zhang Guan competing in the long jump, but maybe we won't be able to see Zhang Guan in the long jump today. The guest immediately said.

"Why?" The host asked very cooperatively.

"Look at the schedule! The long jump competition is exactly between the 100-meter dash and the 400-meter dash, and the competition time is completely conflicting, I think Zhang Guan will definitely give up the long jump competition! (To be continued.) )
