The Su God of the Reopening of the Sports Arena

Zhao Haohuan is in the fifth lane.

Powell is in lane six.

Zhang Peimeng is in the seventh lane.

Work and rest are on the eighth path.

Jianglikou Kuang's history is on the ninth road.

After the division of lanes is completed, athletes begin final preparations for the competition. The sound of rain also became clearer on the runway, changing from pattering to dripping.

Although Bolt said that he likes running in the rain, he feels that the track is softer and more suitable for his pace.

But if you really say that it’s raining in this situation and still think so, then you’re being very stubborn. It is impossible to produce better performance.

Even if you are Bolt, it is impossible.

Bolt also felt uncomfortable after several test runs. The light rain turned into moderate rain, which meant he had to expend more effort to start the race.

It is very likely that none of the four steps will be enough.

This is why, once bad weather occurs in many competitions, the overall performance will drop.

Not just some mental effects, but also changes in the entire body's functions and physiological conditions. For example, the softer the slippery track appears on rainy days, the greater the impact on starting will be for taller athletes.

Because such tall athletes have a high center of gravity, and their inertia will be relatively large, making it even more difficult for them to control their bodies. A slight change in conditions will definitely have a wider impact on them.

Even Bolt said that he likes running in the rain the most, even though his body is better able to adapt to the extra elasticity that the soft track brings to his body in the rain.

Make his stride length and cadence more elastic.

But this will definitely not affect his start.

The impact of starting will continue to accelerate and run on the road, and may even easily affect your top speed.

This is why it is extremely difficult to achieve your best results under harsh conditions.

In addition, it is still a headwind gun on the runway in Magic City.

The change in wind direction caused the moderate rain to fall directly on the face from the front, which was also an adverse effect.

These are just changes in external conditions.

The real change in internal conditions is actually Bolt's own fault. Because he competed with Blake in the 200 meters, plus the 100 meters, he did not hold back too much. The 100 meters and the 200 meters were both combined. The intensity was not adapted to it, and the lack of experience had an impact on Bolt. .

Even if you do a few more starts.

Do a few more test runs.

He felt a certain degree of discomfort in his body.

This kind of subtle discomfort is certainly nothing to ordinary people and is almost unnoticeable. But for such a super master, a slight change in physical condition may affect the entire process.

It may even affect changes in mentality.

It’s hard to say these, they are all x factors.

Blake was very smart this time. He only did one trial run and then did not do any more preparations for the trial run.

Why not?

Just to save energy.

He had realized this truth earlier than Bolt.

This is a summary of his experience after taking on high-intensity combined events last year. Bolt is different from him in this respect. First of all, Bolt was absolutely invincible last year and seemed to be unbeatable. Moreover, Bolt's experience and routines in this regard are completely incomparable to Blake's.

He was that pure black type of athlete.

Has great athleticism and a God-given gift for this program. But his mind seems to be unable to keep up with his talent, so athletes like them need to find strong coaches to lead them.

In other words, if Bolt didn't have Mills to help him summarize and draw a path on this matter, Bolt would not be able to feel the difference in this aspect on his own.

Secondly, perhaps this is the most important reason.

This is also the reason why Bolt himself has no feeling at all in this aspect...

That is, at last year's Daegu World Championships, Blake finished both events. Whether it was 100 meters or 200 meters, he was in a state of completion and completed the entire race.

So he can understand these things to the extent that these two guns are extremely powerful.

But not Bolt.

Because Bolt had white rice last year, everyone knows what happened.

God cast the dice for him.

He was immediately sent off at the start of the 100 meters.

Then the problem is coming.

Now that he's been kicked out.

Does that mean that he didn't expend any energy at all on the 100 meters?

Since he didn't consume much in the 200 meters, even if he suppressed Blake at 100 meters, the consumption was not small. But because there is no meters as a prerequisite for consumption, this is still within the intensity that Bolt can bear.

He didn't feel at all what kind of feeling and mental pressure it would cause him under the extremely strong intensity of both guns and the pressure of an extremely strong opponent.

In this regard, he lost this good opportunity last year because of a false start.

So he himself never thought about this aspect at all.

If he didn't bring this up himself, he would have been absolutely invincible just by looking at the results before. In addition, they, including Mills, also believed that if they didn't get a jump start on the 100 meters, they would definitely be a sure winner.

Then just... ignore this problem.

This is the biggest factor why Bolt is simply not prepared for the high-intensity competition in these two events this year.

You look like you just missed the mark.

But in fact its impact is cascading.

Bolt himself still doesn't understand what is going on.

He might just think that he was not in a good state this time, because he was tired from traveling, or because he came over last night and stayed up late playing video games too late.

Anyway, he didn't think about it at all.

Even when he saw that Blake had only tried running once in the rain, I went over and asked with some confusion: "Are you just running once, Youhan?"

"The rain is getting heavier and heavier. If I don't try it a few more times, I'm afraid it will affect the feeling of my feet later."

When Blake saw that it was Bolt, he was silent for two seconds and just shook his head silently, indicating that he had no intention of trying again.

Athletes compete selfishly.

Especially Blake, who is always with Bolt, always suppressed, always in a haze...

Even in training, Mills, the coach who used to think highly of him the most, obviously had a decline in his own 100-meter training and attention because of Bolt's explosive talent in the 100-meter race.

Of course Blake couldn't understand.

As a head coach, your energy is limited.

If a stronger and more talented player appears, you will definitely have to transfer more of your energy there.

but……

This does not mean that he can accept it willingly just because he understands it. Blake is also a person with a strong desire to compete, but his performance in this regard is not as open as Bolt's.

He will only keep these things in his heart silently.

In this respect he is more like the Guy of Jamaica.

Not Gatling from Jamaica.

Besides, he and Bolt have a competitive relationship. This competitive relationship did not break out particularly clearly because he could not threaten Bolt no matter whether he ran 100 meters or 200 meters before.

But what about this year?

Last year's Brussels had greatly stimulated his interest and confidence in the 200m.

The outside world has wildly publicized the number one pure running game in the world. Naturally, in the age of social media, it is impossible for him not to have not seen it.

Because this data is very accurate and has been used and certified by many authoritative media, Blake feels even more...

He has a chance to surpass and suppress Bolt.

I have a chance to win in the 200 meters.

Although this may sound outrageous.

His main event is obviously 100 meters.

but.

It's just like--

Back then, Bolt's main event was also the 200 meters, not the 100 meters. So did he suddenly awaken his talent in the 100 meters?

Then he took away all the resources that he had originally trained as the No. 1 athlete in Jamaica.

Then yourself.

Why can't the main event be 100 meters, and then the talent awakens at 200 meters?

Things Bolt can do.

Why can't I do it myself?

Since you took away my 100 meters of resources.

So……

I'm also going to try to get your 200 meters of resources.

Let you also have a taste of the anguish and depression you felt back then.

Based on this mentality that competition is increasingly on the table, Blake will naturally not say anything more to Bolt now. Of course, he wouldn't have said much to Bolt before. He and Bolt were not so much good friends.

Rather, they are teammates who train every day in the same team.

The relationship between the two is similar to that of Jordan and Pippen.

It seems that he often attends various shots and events.

But the private relationship between the two people...

But it's not as close as everyone thinks.

Bolt saw that Blake didn't seem to want to say anything more, and he walked away in a hurry. Anyway, Blake's personality that he doesn't like to talk has long been used to him over the years, and he doesn't find anything strange. But the moment he turned around.

Blake looked at him.

But there was some faint feeling.

Now Bolt is this attribute side of his teammate.

The attribute side that Bolt is his enemy and his opponent has been completely occupied in the past.

And since he chose Su Shen to join forces.

It is necessary to bring down such a track and field body that seems to be arrogant to outsiders.

Then he won't tell Bolt about this aspect now.

Bolt himself wanted to know.

Then realize it yourself.

I will not interfere in this matter now.

Because now he is the enemy.

No longer just teammates.

Su Shen was actually helping him fight for the 200 meters.

Then Blake will naturally help Su Shen fight for 100 meters.

Only in this way did he feel that there was no debt in his heart.

The American ABC TV station is also broadcasting this game.

Because Gatlin did not participate, he did not go to the Magic City.

Now as an active athlete, coupled with his strong rise this year, he has rebounded strongly.

He is once again sought after by many people and is a guest of many media atmospheres.

The simplest piece of evidence is the net worth of his current participation in these events and guests.

It has doubled several times.

"Justin, what do you think of this game? Didn't you say you were going to win the gold medal? If you were there, could you win the next game?"

Gatlin, a big talker, has said that he wants to win the gold medal this year, just like in history. If he says it, he will be splashed with water. He must not slap himself in the face.

Besides, in America, what’s wrong with talking big?

Who doesn’t want to hear this kind of pre-match talk?

As for whether it can be done.

That's another story.

Now Gatlin knows this trick very well. He just wants to use this kind of shocking high-profile remarks to gather all the popularity he has lost.

If you are popular, you will naturally get traffic.

Then naturally someone will invite advertisers to sign.

That way his purpose would be achieved.

You can make a lot of money with just a beautiful knife.

Guy is far inferior to him in this aspect.

In fact, Guy is much stronger than him.

But because he doesn't like to over-market himself, and Guy also said a lot of big things before, and was slapped hard in the face, he has obviously restrained himself a lot now.

The biggest difference between Guy and Gatlin is.

When Guy talks big, it's based on what he really thinks he can do.

If he didn't do it afterwards, he would have seen the gap and he would not forcefully say that again.

But Gatlin is not like that.

This is not how his team was guided.

What they have to do is use the traffic to promote themselves, attract traffic to themselves, and let their popularity rise.

So even though Gatlin knew he couldn't do it.

Then he will continue talking.

Keep grabbing attention.

Therefore, after Gay has admitted that Bolt's strength is basically unapproachable, he has given up the choice of talking about this aspect. Now he just wants to steadily improve himself in the competition.

Put yourself in contention for a silver medal.

Of course if the situation in Daegu before Bolt appeared.

He will also show no mercy.

Must be cut off.

But before that, he wouldn't say anything more.

If you don't say anything, there will be no explosive point. Naturally, the media's attention will be diverted to Gatlin, who has a bigger mouth and prefers to make some sensational remarks.

No way, the audience just likes these.

Are you just competing?

It is really not pleasing to the modern pan-entertainment system.

Gatlin was very accurate in this regard.

He said bluntly: "If I were here in this game, I think I would have a chance to win."

"Because I like running on rainy days. I can bring out the best version of myself on rainy days. But unfortunately this time, due to schedule issues, I can only leave this better version of myself in our home country of the United States. "

"Look at their shot."

"I think if I'm here, I have a good chance of breaking 10 and getting first place."

"Their ability and stability in rainy weather are not as good as mine."

What he said seemed very confident, and it was able to arouse the emotions of novices and laymen. In fact, Gatlin also had a good idea here. He did this because he expected it to happen. We are competing in the Magic City today. It can be seen from the preliminaries...

It is impossible to achieve any particularly good results.

So he was just being clever when he said that.

And most ordinary people don't actually understand these various Taoisms. When the results come out, they are not particularly good. It will really confirm what Gatlin said. Many people will believe that if Gatlin passes this result, he will definitely be able to win the championship.

It really kills two birds with one stone.

Including that Gatlin’s team has now begun to give him a new operating identity——

It's called an old boy who loves track and field.

This can win a lot of favor and even attention.

Publicity efforts can also start from this aspect.

In America, there is a strong saying that old soldiers never die.

Return to the Magic City scene.

Although Bolt felt slightly uncomfortable, he didn't specifically feel anything was wrong.

I can only feel that I am thinking too much.

If we wait for the next game, there should be no problem.

After all, we rested here for more than an hour.

You should be able to recover, right?

As he said this, he took a look and saw that Su Shen, who also did not have two test runs, likes to show off again. Moreover, Su Shen won the Daegu World Championships last year. Bolt believed that this was an honor that should belong to him. , he has been more targeted towards Su Shen this year.

"Su, your technical changes haven't been completed yet. It's such a pity. I won't have the chance to compete with you at the top this year."

"After all... I haven't made any regression this year compared to before."

"Don't let me blow you up after you start it. I won't be merciful this year."

It was originally a very pretentious sentence, telling the other party that I was still in excellent condition and still the same Usain Bolt.

Most people will definitely be scared when they hear this.

My heart will thump and I will be affected.

Who knew that after Su Shen heard this, he raised his head and let the rain wash over his face. He looked at Bolt next to him and suddenly laughed and said:

"You just haven't regressed?"

"Then you haven't made any progress either."

"Then I'm relieved, Usain."

"I'll start the shot."

"You definitely won't be able to catch up."

Bolt:? ? ?

Seeing Bolt in a daze, Su Shen continued: "I don't believe it."

"Just try it."

"I am continuing to improve this year."

Bolt:! ! !

Why do you feel that the pretense is on the horse's hooves?

Is my head buzzing instead?

Without giving him any more chance to react, the referee had already asked the athletes to return to their positions and the electronic password began to sound in the rain.
