Almighty Athlete Chapter 124: Two hundred meters final
Bolte just walked out of the locker room, and the camera shot him. Facing the camera, Bolt did not seem very nervous, but showed an aspirational look. He even made a few exaggerated gestures to the camera, and when he entered the infield, he even jumped. A few Jamaican-style reggae dances.
Seeing Bolt’s posture, the TV’s commentator couldn’t help but sigh: “Bolt looks confident in himself. He doesn’t seem to have been affected by the 100-meter final defeat. But then again, that day It’s a pity that the 100m finals in China have actually broken the original world record held by Zhang Guan, but it’s a pity that Zhang Guan is faster. If you break the world record, you can only get a silver medal, if it’s me , Will be hit hard."
Another commentator immediately went on to say: "Bolter is the world’s number one player after all. He may be the only one who has the strength to challenge Zhang Guan in the sprint event, and Bolt originally contacted 200 meters. Born in sprinting, 200 meters is Bolt’s main item. Bolt’s strength in this project is also stronger, so he is confident and normal. Maybe he can cause some trouble for Zhang Guan in the game. Maybe he will have the strength to break the world record on this project."
"The world record for men’s 200-meter sprint is 19.30 seconds, which was created by Zhang Guan. Today’s scene gives me a feeling of deja vu, the same is true of the 100-meter trapeze battle a few days ago. World record holder Zhang Guan, and today it is the same, but I don’t know if the final result will be a repeat of history."
“Well, this possibility is not ruled out. We know that Zhang Guan’s recent state is very good. In these four days, he broke three world records in total, and broke the world records of three events in one Olympic Games. It is already an incredible thing, but he still has the opportunity to break the fourth and even the fifth world record. I think that in the next day, we may witness the miracle."
At the same time, in Jamaica, countless people are paying attention to this game.
Sprinting is Jamaica’s strong point. In recent decades, countless Jamaicans have escaped poverty through sprinting, so in Jamaica, people who can become sprinters are undoubtedly the idols of the whole people The story of the poor boy in the countryside becoming a world champion also inspired countless Jamaican young people to join the career of sprinting.
In previous years, Jamaica’s national idol was Powell, but now, Jamaica’s national idol is undoubtedly Bolt.
There is a time difference of 13 hours between China and Jamaica, so Jamaica is now at 11 noon. For Jamaicans, it is now time to eat lunch, so people have stopped. For the job in hand, find a place with a TV and watch Bolt's game while eating.
In Jamaica’s live broadcast room, Bolt’s father, Old Bolt, was invited to the scene as a special guest for this game.
Old Bolt is also a person who has been interviewed by many media. In the face of the camera, he is not nervous at all, but shows a very old-fashioned look and talks with the host.
"We saw that Bolt has already appeared! Haha, he also danced. It seems that he is calm and should be very confident in the upcoming 200m final. As a father, I think you also I must be looking forward to his next performance!" the host said.
Old Bolt has a brilliant smile, he said: "I believe that Ucein (Bolte) will definitely win, he will get the first in his life in the next project. Olympic gold medals."
"Mr. Bolt, I feel that you are more confident than your son." The host also smiled, and he continued: "We also hope that he will be able to Our Jamaican team won a gold medal. But in the next game, Bolt also has to face a very strong opponent. All three players in the United States entered the finals, including defending champions Crawford, Holland. Martina of the Antilles is also very strong, and more importantly, the world record holder Zhang Guan has also entered the 200-meter final. Now many foreign media have said that this 200-meter final will be It's a battle between Bolt and Zhang Guan. I don't know what you think of this. Do you think Bolt can beat Zhang Guan in the next game?"
Old Bolt thought for a while and said: "It is undeniable that Zhang Guan is indeed the biggest opponent on the road to winning the championship. And in the 100-meter final a few days ago, Zhang Guan also beat Yousai. But don’t forget, the main item of Zhang Guan is originally a 100-meter sprint, 100 meters is a project he is best at, but Ucein is different, Ucein’s main item is 200 meters, and 100 meters is only Uce Because of the double event, the 100m finals a few days ago were the main event of Zhang Guan facing Usain, but today the game happened to be reversed, and the main event of Usain facing Zhang Guan ! So I think the final result will also be reversed!"
Old Bolt talked about this and revealed a mysterious smile to the camera, and then said: "Anyway, the game is about to start, here I might as well reveal a little secret in advance..."
"Oh?" The host immediately widened his eyes, he knew that the old Bolt was about to break the news.
Old Bolt said, "The current 200-meter world record is 19.30 seconds maintained by Zhang Guan. However, this world record for us Usin is not much to follow, a few times before the Olympics. During the practice, Yossine once ran into 19.20 seconds."
"19.20 seconds? 0.1 seconds faster than the world record!" the host exclaimed.
"Yes!" Old Bol nodded his head, and then said: "Maybe you think it is just practice, the data may be inaccurate, but what I want to tell you is that in the official practice game before the Olympics, especially Sein also ran out of 19.20 seconds."
"The practice game can also run 19.20 seconds? We have not heard of this before!" The host said.
"That is of course, this matter has always been kept secret, and only a few people know it." Old Bolt's vanity was greatly satisfied at this moment, he continued: "So, even if it is Zhang Guan can increase his world record by another 0.1 second, and it is impossible to be a rival of Usain, because now Usain can definitely run into 19.20 seconds! You can look forward to Usain breaking the record and winning the championship. Time!"
......
At this time, the lens has been zoomed in, and the tournament will begin to introduce the athletes who are playing.
A total of eight players participated, but there was a sponsor’s billboard on the lawn inside the track, which would affect the first athlete’s turn, so the first one was vacated and no one was occupying it.
The second track became the innermost runway, Kim Collins was in this track, then the third track was Zimbabwean Dez Gay, and the fourth track was the inevitable champion Crawford. Zhang Guan is in the fifth lane, and Bolt is in the sixth lane next to Zhang Guan. The seventh lane is the Netherlands Antilles Martina, followed by the eighth and ninth lanes. Spearman and Spearman occupied.
The camera is aimed at everyone one after another. Kim Collins just waved his hand symbolically, while Dez Gay looked very cautious and smiled at the camera, but it was uglier than crying.
The defending champion Crawford’s face is the calmest. He has been 30 years old and he often lost to Zhang Guan two or three years ago. In the past two years he also often lost to Bolt. He knows himself It is impossible to be the opponent of these two super geniuses, and there are many excellent young people in this project, so he does not have much hope for the medal.
As for Bolt, it is also a signature archery action, but it is slightly different than usual. He first pretended to comb his hair, then raised his head, and shot the sword again at the end!
Martina’s expression was very dignified. When the camera was pointed at him and his name was reported on the court, he didn’t even change his expression. The other two American players also looked very low-key, just simple Waved his hand.
Then the referee signaled that the athlete could stand on the starting block.
Bort took a deep breath. He drew a cross on his chest and prayed to God. Beside Bolt, Zhang Guan repeatedly recalled the game in his memory.
"I remember Bolt smashing me in this game and ran 19.30 seconds, breaking Michael Johnson's world record. But because of my existence, history has changed and Bolt sprinted at 100 meters. China is faster than the original Olympics, so he may run faster in the 200 meters. I remember Bolt’s actual record at 200 meters is 19.19 seconds, which is better than my previous world record. It's still faster, so I can't take it lightly in the following games, I want to go all out!"
Zhang Guan bent down, made a starting posture, and then focused, waiting for the moment when the gunshot sounded.
The audience at the scene also all quieted down, and they didn’t want to affect the players’ listening.
The sound of a "slap!" gunshot sounded, and the athletes on the starting blocks started at almost the same time. The eight players all listened to the gun and no one used the tactic of pressing the gun.
In the next second, the starting reaction time of each player has been displayed on the screen.
The 200-meter start is different from the 100-meter start. The 200-meter start is on a curve, and the athlete’s position is forward and backward, not on the same level as the 100-meter, and it is also impossible to start on a curve. Straight out, the first step after the start is to adjust your footsteps to adapt to the curve movement, so the start of the curve must be slower than the start of the straight.
The runner with the shortest starting reaction time is Martina of the Netherlands Antilles. His starting reaction time is only 0.144 seconds, which is an excellent result if it is placed in the 100-meter start. The 200m is even better.
The second place in starting reaction time is American teenager Dix. His starting reaction time of 0.151 seconds is also amazing enough. Another American player Spearman’s starting reaction time is 0.167 seconds, which is also An excellent result.
Bolt's starting reaction time is 0.182 seconds, Zhang Guan's starting reaction time is 0.186 seconds, which is a normal starting reaction time of 200 meters. The slowest is the American player Crawford. His starting reaction time is 0.210 seconds, which is obviously slow.
After the runners started, the runners took the lead in the corners, and because the starting position has precedence and succession, it is difficult to clearly distinguish the precedence position visually. Speed. However, in fact, if it is not a professional, it is difficult to have a clear sense of the speed.
The scene has been enveloped by the cheers of the audience, but the focus of people's vision is all on Zhang Guan and Bolt.
"Which one is faster, Zhang Guan or Bolt?"
"Unable to separate, both of them are fast!"
"I think Bolt is faster. Look, he is going to catch up with the man next to him."
"The person next to" refers to the Martinez player Martina of the Netherlands Antilles on the seventh track. At this time, Bolt has narrowed the distance from Martina. Na's starting position is in front of Bolt, which means that Ming Bolt is faster than Martina.
"No, Zhang Guan is faster than Zhang Guan, he is about to get rid of Crawford!" Someone said immediately.
The left side of Zhang Guan is the defending champion Crawford. At the start, Zhang Guan was in front of Crawford. At this time, the distance between Zhang Guan and Crawford was much larger than at the start .
Martina and Crawford are not slow, at least people can tell with the naked eye~IndoMTL.com~ They are faster than Kim-Collins, but even so, they are still being Bolt Opened the gap with Zhang Guan.
At this time, he hasn't entered the corner yet, but Kim Collins' speed has obviously not kept up with other players. He will obviously become the bottom player in the final.
But the other players did not give up. Although they seem to have fallen behind Zhang Guan and Bolt, the corner is only a part of the game. Then the adjustment of the corner into the straight and the sprint after entering the straight, for the 200m The game is a crucial point.
Zhang Guan can feel that Bolt is fast, he believes that Bolt can also feel that he is fast. In terms of cornering technology, Bolt's 200-meter player is indeed very strong, but Zhang Guan knows that Bolt's strength in the 200-meter project is not the front curve, but the continuation of the back. Sprint ability.
However, the strength of Zhang Guan is also in the final sprint.
The players are about to enter the straight, and their position rankings will be announced soon.
"Zhang Guan, Bolt, go straight straight! Who is faster? Who is ahead! Oh! The two are on the same side!" (To be continued.) Launch of new URL
