Chapter 971: Pre-Race Turmoil and Manchester Street Race

According to Xinhua News Agency, Brazilian media reported yesterday that the worst doping incident in the history of the country's track and field community broke out in the Brazilian delegation to the World Championships in Berlin.

It is reported that out of 45 team members, six have tested positive for EPO, and five of them were disembarked in a flight drug test conducted in May. This year, there have been seven doping incidents in Brazil, accounting for one-third of all cases since drug testing began in Brazil in 2003. It is reported that the Brazilian athletes involved the men's 200m, 4x100m, 400m hurdles and women's 4x400m, 400m hurdles and heptathlon events. At present, the drug test samples have been sent to an IAAF-designated laboratory for re-examination. After several members of his team were found to be doping, Brazilian track and field coach Netto announced yesterday that he was responsible for the incident. Neto said he took the advice of a professor of kinesiology at São Paulo State University to think that the EPO injections would help athletes recover quickly. As is customary, even if Neto does not resign, he could be punished for a long time.

The five players include two men and three women, namely: Bruno Teñorio and Serio Senna; The three female players are Lucimara Sivertop, Josein Tito, and Luciana Franca.

In an official statement on the banned drug scandal, the Brazilian Athletics Federation said that the decision was made based on the results of tests given by the Montreal laboratory commissioned by the IAAF, and the five athletes have been banned for the time being, and the specific ban time has not yet been determined. The anti-drug representative of the Brazilian Athletics Association said that they are most worried about this banned drug, erythropoietin, a synthetic drug. Just last week, a Brazilian 400m runner, Lucy Mar Teodoro, was found to have used the drug, which has now caused six Brazilian athletes to fail drug tests.

Such a high percentage of drug-related players is terrifying in Brazil's 44-man squad for the World Championships, which has caused Brazilians to be highly concerned about the future of the Brazilian team at the World Championships.

Erythropoietin synthesis drug is a drug that promotes the growth of red blood cells in the human body, the increase in red blood cells in the human body will increase the content of platelets in the blood, platelets play the role of oxygen in the human body, and the increase in the oxygen content in the blood of athletes will undoubtedly greatly improve and promote their athletic ability. It has been scientifically proven that black people have the highest platelets in their bodies, so they are rich in oxygen, and they are also the most athletic of all races.

……

The World Championships are approaching, and scandals of various major competitions have begun to appear one after another.

It's almost a given.

Almost every time there is a big tournament, this event happens.

If you want to be completely clean, I'm afraid that it can really only be God's beauty.

Since the World Championships, erythropoietin synthetic drugs have also begun to enter the strict investigation of banned drugs and entered the monitoring of international doping organizations.

And that's not all.

Five athletes who took banned drugs at the Jamaican National Athletics Championships in May received intimidation from sports fans and threatened their personal safety.

The Jamaica Association of Athletics held hearings for the five athletes who tested positive for doping. There are reports that the athletes received intimidation threats from track and field fans, but the Association of Athletics did not confirm whether the athletes received death threats. In the interest of protecting athletes, Gamon, president of the Jamaica Athletics Association, said that the venue of the hearing was kept absolutely confidential.

Jamaica is a Caribbean island nation that prides itself on athletics, and although Jamaican athletics has had some negative impacts on doping in the past, including women's legend Ottie, the percentage of doping cases in Jamaican athletics is still very small.

However, this matter has attracted a lot of attention.

Compared with Brazil, the doping incident in Jamaica is obviously more "inexplicably excited" to the world police Ameika.

Former track and field star Carl Lewis openly questioned, "How can these best sprinters in the world come from such an island?" ”

The implication is that they are doping.

And coincidentally, German scientists studying Jamaican grains found that they have a naturally complex molecular structure that can be used to synthesize steroids, which helps to improve the performance of Jamaican athletes.

It has been reported that the names of the banned drugs found in the five athletes are not on the IAAF's doping list, and it is not a doping drug, which belongs to the methylxanthine class. If taken too much, it can cause drowsiness and affect the performance of athletes.

Of course, this claim was later denied, especially the claim of cereal stimulants, which later generations must have felt was.

But now, it's really a bit of a "stroke of genius".

Coupled with Lewis's remark, "How can these best sprinters in the world come from such an island?" It has once again ignited questions about Jamaica's achievements.

Usain Bolt was soon caught up in the equation as well.

Even this matter has nothing to do with him at all.

Su Shen of course immediately supported the incident, because he knew better than anyone that Bolt could be one of the cleanest track and field athletes in the world. Mi Guo surrounded him every day and didn't have any problems with the drug test, how could there be a problem in this place.

It's someone else's problem, not to mention it's nonsense.

Bolt himself denied it, of course, but thankfully the Jamaican Anti-Doping Commission soon announced that the five Jamaican track and field athletes would not be punished because it could not be proven that the drugs they were taking were illegal drugs. This means that five athletes are likely to compete in the upcoming World Athletics Championships in Berlin, which will start on September 15.

"The drugs taken by the five athletes are not listed as prohibited drugs by the World Anti-Doping Agency, so we want to restore their 'innocence'. "The World Anti-Doping Agency and the IAAF will have a final review of the decision at a meeting in Berlin on the 11th and 12th, and if approved, the five athletes will be able to participate in the World Athletics Championships in Berlin.

The IAAF revealed last month that four men and one woman were found to have used illegal drugs at the Jamaica Athletics Championships last month. Although the five athletes are not Jamaica's top athletes, the doping scandal has caused a stir in Jamaica, which is known as a sprinting powerhouse.

Obviously, though, this wasn't enough, because that's what Amika wants, not the final result.

As long as everyone starts associating, that's enough.

Even if there is no problem.

It can affect Bolt's state of readiness, and it is also possible.

In this regard, Amelika has never contained a lake.

This annoyed Bolt.

Lewis's remarks, in particular, are obviously problematic and influential, and they are almost typical of "regional discrimination".

Small countries can't produce super athletes? What kind of truth is this?

You don't allow effects to be technologically advanced, can't you allow a small country to have a monster with physical talent?

"The only time in my life when I was affected by 'drugs' was a week and a half before I was born in my mother's womb." "Maybe it was my mom who ate too much sugar when she was pregnant, and tamarind fruit has a lot of sugar in it, and this is the only time I've been affected by 'drugs'," Bolt said. Other than that, there is no second time, even if it slows down. ”

Fortunately, now the Huajia track and field team, especially the sprint team, because Su Shen intervened with the compound team, he had done everything to prevent the opportunity to tell the truth.

It's almost impossible to get any scandal out of them.

Everyone is in a state of gold, and Su Shen doesn't want the situation he has worked so hard to create with everyone to be overshadowed by some people spreading rumors.

Because of the scandals that preceded the competition, the IAAF announced yesterday that they plan to take more than 1,000 samples, including urine and blood samples, at this World Championships, which is far more than the 700 tests in the track and field events of the North Olympics.

IAAF President Diack said: "We will do the best anti-doping work to stop the use of illegal drugs that is or is about to occur. The IAAF has listed Russia, Belarus, China, the United States and Jamaica as priority countries for doping testing. ”

For this kind of thing, in fact, Su Shen raised his hands and feet in agreement.

Again, the stricter the check, the better it is for yourself.

On the contrary, Ameika's side should be careful.

After all, their track and field team has a lot of black history.

At this time, there is another important piece of news that comes out with it, that is———— the IAAF is expected to simplify the front-running penalty rules on August 12 and punish any front-runner.

Currently, the IAAF rules that only one runner is allowed in a race, and the athlete who leads the subsequent race, regardless of whether he is the first-time runner, will be sent off.

IAAF spokesman Davis said in Berlin on May 11: "Many athletes take advantage of the rules and deliberately run away. Some athletes deliberately run once knowing that there will be no penalty for the first run. This delayed the game and affected the live TV broadcast. ”

"Therefore, we have decided to start implementing the new rules at this World Championships or next year."

This rule also has far-reaching implications for the future.

From the very beginning, you can run multiple times to the new starting rules of the 21st century, and only one rush foul is allowed in any one race. Whoever commits another foul during the match will be disqualified. In the past, every athlete had the right to commit a foul. The implementation of the new rules is mainly to make the game more exciting and make it more suitable for television broadcasting.

And the first one who was unwilling to obey was none other than the track and field kingdom, Amika.

After the implementation of the new rules, they were opposed by the sprinting powerhouse Rice Athletics Association and athletes, and the Rice Athletics Association even openly refused to implement the new rules in the competitions of the United States on the grounds of safeguarding the interests of its own athletes, which was warned and criticized by the IAAF. At last year's World Athletics Championships in Paris, the new starting rules were introduced, and as a result, the United States athlete Drummond was disqualified for violating the new rules, he refused to leave the field and lay on the track to make a fuss, delaying the competition for nearly half an hour, causing a bad impact.

Therefore, every time the new rules are changed, there will be a lot of changes.

The level of adaptation that athletes need is also increasing.

It's not that you can adapt it right away.

Especially in terms of mentality, there will definitely be a big impact.

At that time, the difficulty of pressing guns and gambling will increase significantly.

But...... This is for Su Shen.

It's not unconventional.

After all, when he produces results in the future, this rule will be the same.

In fact, when he first came back here, he was still a little uncomfortable with the rule that he could run once.

Now it's just right.

It's just time to change it back.

It's too late to rejoice.

But obviously there will be a strategic adjustment for some athletes.

This is known as the "zero-tolerance rule".

The zero-tolerance front-running rule was first introduced on March 13, 2001, when it was piloted in lower-level events. At the beginning of the trial phase, the zero front-running rule was criticized a lot, and the focus was too strict, so it was still a first-time front-running rule. Since January 1, 2010, the National Athletics Federation has officially adopted the zero-rush rule that has been beaten into the cold palace, and it has been implemented to this day. The 2011 Daegu World Athletics Championships was the first major competition to adopt a zero-run rule, and the first victims included Usain. Bolt.

Under the new rules, Ersha Island will definitely need to adapt.

However, it shouldn't be a big problem, and most of the adaptability is still good.

In addition to that, there is one of the biggest news, and that is Tyson. Gai Yin, finally issued that powerful and famous declaration:

"You have to run 9.59 seconds to beat Usain Bolt, and I have the skills and all the weapons I can use to beat him."

Especially when he ran the 200 meters second only to Michael. Johnson and Usain. After Bolt's result, he was even more excited, and he was asked this question again in the post-match interview:

"It's incredible, I ran the third best time in history, and I have more confidence because of that."

"I think Usain Bolt will be happy for me, he knows I'm a strong fighter, and that's good news for him, because it's only tough competition that makes him great."

"At the World Championships in Berlin, we must beat Usain Bolt and try to defend our title."

These are all the original words that Su Shen has seen in his historical memory.

I didn't expect to hear it again again in this world this time.

Gai Yin's rhetoric does sound like a boiling blood now, but these so-called blood boiling, Su Shen knows very well, will completely end after "lightning pierces the night sky of Berlin again and again", and there will be no market.

And the funniest thing may be Gai Yin's "God Prophecy".

He said, "You have to run 9.59 seconds to beat Usain Bolt, I have the skills and all the weapons I can beat him."

Then Bolt ran out for 9.58s.

It is equivalent to telling him with practical actions again:

Dude, even if you run out of 9.59s.

You can't win me either.

Besides, you can't run this result.

This is Usain. Bolt's metamorphosis.

In this regard, Su Shen is much smarter, so he will not argue with Bolt now, and honestly improve his strength is the key at the moment.

What "I don't think I'm losing to Usain Bolt in terms of talent, the difference is that he's shown the world that he can do it and maybe he can do more. But now, I guess it's my turn, and I'll prove it to you here. ”

Forget about this kind of thing, even if the person who said it was Tyson. Gai Yin.

However, Su Shen's is indeed the same as Yusain. Usain Bolt, about to face each other.

This is also the first matchup of outdoor competitions since the start of this season.

They will have an "unofficial showdown" on the streets of Manchester in Kitty Hawk Country.

This is also the purpose of Bolt's trip to Kitty Hawk Country, and it is also the reason why Su Shen is sitting on the plane alone with Randy and going to Manchester at the moment.

Manchester Street Challenge.

The giants of this year have all participated in the "informal challenge".

One of the most bizarre events in it is, of course, the 150-meter street race system.

And Usain. Usain Bolt is also the holder of this record.

Su Shen went over this time, yes, you guessed correctly, also to participate in this 150-meter event.

Not to fight Usain Bolt for 150 meters.

He has his own plans.

Su Shen wants to go over, and his main plan is-

At 150 meters, follow Usain. Usain Bolt, activate or even strengthen his ability to sprint in the zone.

The 200m performance that makes you better and better can be further blessed to the 100m.

This is also a part of the ability area that Su Shen needs to improve if he wants to open 9.80s under the legal wind speed.

So obviously, for now, this game is the most suitable game.

What's more, there is Bolt here.

It's also about following your own sprint zone.

It has played the greatest possible role in promoting it.

Then Su Shen deliberately chose such a special "game" for himself.

And why he is on the plane now.

Instead of following the big army to participate in a few challenges and Grand Prix in Eugene, USA.

As soon as he got off the plane, he received a message from his good friend Yusain. Usain Bolt's text message:

Sue, the Manchester girl is really welcoming, I touched a few good local nightclubs in advance.

Why don't you come and play together?

Su Shen: ......

But it's very Bolt's style.

Su Shen replied with a Nokia phone:

Don't play, don't make appointments, don't wave.

Then he closed his phone and went to the hotel with Randy to rest.

Usain Bolt can be so prodigal before the game, but Su Shen doesn't have this idea, he has to be physically prepared.

Make good use of this 150m street challenge to keep your sprint zone capable and further motivate after winter training.

That's what he wants to do with Usain. Usain Bolt's "play".

ps: The continuous overtime is over, and I will start to make up for it today~~~~~~~~~~~oo~~~~~~~~

Woo woo woo~~~~~ it's really back pain, leg cramps, ahhh
