Chapter 23 IAAF Eugene Station

On May 5th, Su Feng and Liu Yuxiang set off directly in Shanghai for Eugene, Oregon, USA.

The United States is a country with extremely developed sports business, but in China, the more famous ones are the few NBA teams and the cities where they are located.

But in fact, more cities in the United States have their own business cards in sports.

For example, Eugene City, where the two are now.

This city is sought after by track and field enthusiasts. It has a history of decades and has hosted many competitions. Countless track and field athletes have achieved record-breaking results here. It is known as the city of track and field in the United States.

If Su Feng wants to compete in this year's World Athletics Finals, he needs to score enough points in 25 arenas, and Eugene Station is a place that cannot be given up.

There is another point that only Su Feng knows until now, and that is that the Sufei people of later generations broke the ten-second mark in this city.

So no matter what, Su Feng is coming here.

But thinking of this, Su Feng felt a little heavy in his heart.

In the original year of 2008, the Chinese people's enthusiasm for track and field was concentrated on Liu Feiren, but as a track and field enthusiast, Su Feng clearly remembered it.

2008 was not a very friendly year for China's [-] meters.

In the Olympic [-] meters, the Chinese team not only has A standard athletes, but also only one B standard athlete.

When Su Feng was in Shanghai, he had already started to practice 200 meters. This was not only to prepare for the 200 meters competition in the future, but also for the relay.

Coach Zhang, who is in charge of the national team's relay, has approached Su Feng and He Jun more than once to invite them to join the relay team.

However, Su Feng practiced with some national team players in Shanghai, and he is still not familiar with the handover, but the other people, how should I put it, the fastest speed is estimated to be only 10 seconds away, hard power is not enough , It is as difficult as climbing the sky to get good grades.

Thinking about future generations, if he forms a relay team with Su Feiren and Xie Zhenye, even if it is the American and Jamaican regiments, he will have the confidence to go to the first one.

Long-distance flight is quite exhausting, not tiring, just boring.

After more than ten hours of flying, the group finally arrived in Eugene City.

Lao He and Coach Sun have already contacted the training location, and the next step is jet lag and adaptive training to prepare for the IAAF Grand Prix starting on June 6 - Eugene Station.

At 6:4 pm on June 2th, Su Feng came to the famous Hayward Stadium.

Hayward Stadium underwent a complete overhaul in 2004 and is now one of only five IAAF-certified Group [-] venues in the world.

The entire stadium adopts a rare open mode. Usually, more than [-] spectators can watch the game, and it can be expanded to more than [-] seats when necessary.

The 100-meter athletes participating in the competition this time are relatively strong.

According to the information obtained by Su Feng, Powell also participated in this competition. As for Gatlin and Green, I heard that they went to participate in some activities.

This is the case in the United States. Once an athlete becomes famous, fame and fortune come.

Although he lost to Su Feng in Osaka, Japan, it was a relatively distant place after all, and for the Olympics and the World Championships, the Osaka station was just a small match.

Therefore, Gatling and Green cared, but not to the extent that they changed their plans specifically for Su Feng.

But even if the two did not come, with the strength of American Track and Field, the few people who came this time should not be underestimated.

According to the information in hand, besides Su Feng and Powell, there are six other people participating in this competition.

Davis Button, who has the strength to break ten in the 100 meters, is a member of the American men's 4×100 meters relay in the Athens Olympics.

Kobe Miller, also a member of the U.S. men's 4×100m relay at the Athens Olympics, broke ten in the 100m and 200 in the 20m.

John Capel did not break ten in the 200 meters, but he broke 20 in the [-] meters at his peak.

Leonard Scott, with a best time of 10 seconds in the 10 meters, is also a top player in Asia.

Francis Obikveru, No.4 in the Athens Olympics after Su Feng, can run a peak time of 9 seconds.

Kim Collins, the finalist of the Athens Olympic Games, the final result is No.7, 10 seconds 12.

Aziz Zachary is also an athlete who once ran under the ten-second mark.

After carefully looking at the profiles of the athletes participating in the competition, Su Feng shook his head. The title of America's great track and field country is not for nothing. Only the American athletes on this list can't be found in China, let alone some. The master didn't come at all.

At this time, Su Feng was in the stands, and his race was still a little behind. At this time, the 110-meter hurdles race was about to start.

Since there were no strong competitors, Liu Yuxiang took the lead all the way after the race started, and finally won the championship with a time of 13 seconds.

In fact, once an athlete's strength reaches a certain level, it is difficult for low-level athletes to pose a threat to him. Although outsiders seem to be a few tenths, a few hundredths of a second, to athletes, this is a day-to-day difference. difference.

At 3:15, the men's 100-meter race is about to begin.

As a very high-profile event in track and field sports, the noise on the sidelines began to decrease, and people were all watching the athletes in front of the starting line.

The focus is on Powell and Su Feng.

At this time, Powell was more famous than Su Feng in the eyes of American audiences. Even though Su Feng won the 100-meter bronze medal in the Olympics, people with yellow skin could not run fast, while black people were the opposite.This kind of stereotyped prejudice caused by the long-term monopoly of blacks and the absence of yellow races cannot be reversed in one or two games, unless there is an unfathomable result like Bolt.

But the current Su Feng is obviously not enough.

But the purpose of him and generations of Chinese track and field personnel is to break this prejudice.

Su Feiren of later generations managed to do it at the age of 32, but in this life he will not be so difficult.Not only does Su Feng open the way for him, just like Su Feng longs for a good teammate, for future Su Fei people, the current Su Feng is also the reliable teammate he longs for.

Standing in front of the starting line, Su Feng simply greeted Powell.

In fact, like Kobe Miller and Kim Collins, Su Feng also met face-to-face, but he was really face-blind. In order to avoid embarrassing situations, he didn't plan to say hello.

Su Feng's track this time is the third track, which is not bad.

As the only non-black athlete in the world who ran under the [-]-second mark, the audience present, as track and field enthusiasts, were still full of curiosity about him.

And among the crowd of black athletes, the yellow skin and fiery red sportswear are naturally eye-catching.

"Hey, Jack, why are you here? Your country's sports is the second largest sports newspaper in the country. Are you so free?" This is a tall white man from the famous weekly track and field magazine in the United States, who was born in conservative Tennessee. State, while not admitting to it, has always been a white activist.

The person called Jack glanced at him. They were originally competitors, but now it seems that the other party is much cuter. He knows the other party's personality, and he can tell the kind of sarcasm from the other party's tone. Of course, it is not for himself. , but to the yellow-skinned guy on the field.

"You are also the ace reporter of Track and Field Weekly. If you can come, why can't I come? I just came to see Su Feng. I don't believe it. Even we white people can't break ten seconds. He must be able to enter as a yellow race." What kind of medicine was used? Japan is too far away and I didn’t go, but this time I am in the United States, so I naturally want to take a look.”

"Hey, our big reporter, you are racist, aren't you afraid that Old John will fire you directly?"

"FK, don't say this, just the two of us know, even if others hear it, do you think those yellow people will go to the government to protest, and there will be no trouble.

And why are you here, isn't it the same purpose as me? "

The other Caucasian man shrugged his shoulders, agreeing with the other party's statement. The track and field is not a place for yellow people to run wild. They should go to play table tennis.
