Sprint champion: start standing on the Olympic field

Chapter 337 Guiding Xie Zhenye

After Su Feng's competition was completed, Liu Yuxiang also successfully won the 110-meter hurdles.

The Chinese track and field team has completed the two most important tasks of the Shanghai Diamond League, and everyone is relieved.

Competitive sports, especially sprints and short-span events, as long as they are a little self-motivated, it is really not something ordinary people can do.

From coaches to athletes to staff, without a bigger heart, it is simply unbearable.

After the competition was over, Yao Ming and Liu Yuxiang, two locals, hosted a banquet for several athletes from the track and field team that night.

But afterward Su Feng found out that it was Yao Ming who paid the money, so he despised Liu Yuxiang severely.

The next day, Su Feng was not in a hurry to leave.

Anyway, he also won against Bolt, and that tone was taken. The next match was still early, so Su Feng stayed with a few others.

At this time, on the playground of the Shanghai training base, Su Feng had just finished a 100-meter competition with Xie Zhenye.

"Actually, I think you can try 200 meters with your ability. I personally feel that your speed endurance is stronger than that of Zhang Peimeng and Xiaotian.

If you run 200 meters, you may get better results. Of course, you can't let go of 100 meters.

10 seconds 06, Coach Tian should be eager to recruit you into the national relay team. "

Xie Zhenye and coach Tao Jianrong obviously listened to what Su Feng said, so they were all lost in thought.

Now domestic track and field is hot, and the number of people who join track and field training has increased dramatically since elementary school.

But the hottest is still 100 meters!
This is why Xie Zhenye chose 100 meters in the first place.

Although Tao Jianrong once had the idea of ​​letting Xie Zhenye focus on practicing the 200 meters, he is not sure that he will be able to run better than the current result.

Being able to stand out from so many people is due to Xie Zhenye's talent, but the hard work involved is also unimaginable for ordinary people.

And changing the main direction of attack is not a matter of a day or two. It takes a long time of training to see whether it can produce results.So although I felt that Xie Zhenye's characteristics might be better in the 200 meters.

As a coach, Tao Jianrong still couldn't make this decision.

He and Xie Zhenye also discussed this matter, but in the end they didn't have a clue and let it go.

But Su Feng, as the No.1 in Chinese track and field, his personal sensitivity to sprinting is obviously beyond the reach of ordinary people.

Now that Su Feng has this idea, he has to think about it again.

In particular, Su Feng, Zhang Peimeng and Su Bingtian have all trained together for a long time, and they can be said to be very familiar with the growth process of the two of them.

He felt that Xie Zhenye had better speed and stamina potential than the two, so he shouldn't be wrong.

……

May 2013, 5, Eugene, USA.

As a world-renowned track and field city, Eugene, USA, ushered in the annual IAAF Diamond League again!

At the University of Oregon Stadium, a series of vigorous figures kept running on the track and then stopped.

On the other hand, the students and the public who were watching from the sidelines continued to let out bursts of exclamation.

As an old friend who has cooperated with the University of Oregon many times, Su Feng still chose here as the training venue this time.

Although the school has done a lot of action to prevent a large number of fans and track and field fans from entering.

But as an open school, many people came to the stadium through various channels, of course, including the school's own students.

However, these people did not interfere with the athletes' training. Naturally, the security on the sidelines was also one of the reasons.

However, fans and students can't come, but they can still see the athletes' training.

Now on this track, besides Su Feng, there are two top American players, Gatlin and Tyson Gay.

Every sprint training of the three will cause bursts of exclamation.

As for the other track and field events on the field, although they are also attractive, those athletes are obviously not as popular as these three top [-]-meter athletes.

"Although it is not the first time I have come here, I have to say that the track and field atmosphere here is really good. It is rare for people in a city to be so enthusiastic about track and field competitions."

After a brief comparison with Gatlin, Su Feng looked at the people around him and said with some emotion.

China's track and field boom was driven by him and Liu Yuxiang.

However, Eugene's track and field craze was spontaneously initiated by the public, and not only sprints and other events, but also other track and field events here have no shortage of fans.

"Of course. Especially here, the University of Oregon, where coach Bill Bowerman and Prefontaine came from." Gatlin wiped the sweat from his brow and stepped on the track on the ground.

Su Feng nodded.

Prefontaine is a legendary middle-distance running superstar in the United States in the 70s.

In just four or five years, he set seven national records from 2000 meters to 10000 meters in the United States and won numerous championships.

This directly inspired the running boom in the United States in the 70s, and its status is a bit like that of Liu Yuxiang in China.

Maybe even stronger.

You know, this legendary player only lived for 24 years and died in a car accident in 1975.

Otherwise, at his prime age, I'm afraid he will create more terrifying records.

If most people don't know about Prefontaine, his coach, Bill Bowerman, probably knows even fewer.

However, more people should know about the Nike brand.

And Nike was founded by Bill Bowerman and Mayfair Nike, who is also a track and field athlete at the University of Oregon.

Moreover, Prefontaine is also the No.1 runner signed by Nike.

Therefore, Eugene, which owns the University of Oregon, is called the city of track and field because of its profound heritage.

If China wants to have such a sports atmosphere, it still needs the efforts of generations of athletes.

Just like the NBA and basketball boom brought by Dayao, the sprint boom brought by myself and Liu Yuxiang.

Shaking his head, Su Feng talked about another topic: "I heard that you also did sub-altitude training this winter, how do you feel?"

"Very good. I used to think that my stamina was already top-notch and I didn't need to do special training. But the result was surprisingly good.

The time to maintain the peak speed has increased significantly, and even the absolute speed has increased. Although you can't beat you now, it may not be the future. "Gatlin said confidently.

This guy is known for his tenacity, otherwise he wouldn't be 40 years old and still have world-class strength.

It is okay to let him lose, but it is difficult to make him admit defeat.

But what he said is quite interesting, the absolute speed has also increased.

Su Feng was looking forward to his performance this year, and wanted to see if he would surpass his previous life.

Su Feng is happy to hear about this kind of thing, especially because of the changes he caused, he has a feeling of creating or witnessing history.

However, if he wants to win him and Bolt, Gatlin may not be able to realize his ambition no matter how great he is.

Su Feng's physical comprehensive level is comparable to that of Bolt.

And Bolt's physical condition has reached the limit of human beings, and Gatlin is obviously "not talented enough".

……

June 2013, 6, Eugene, Hayward Stadium.

Still a packed auditorium.

It seems that since Su Feng rose to prominence, every competition he went to was full like this.

Now that Bolt is added, the situation is naturally even more heated.

The United States, as a sports powerhouse.

Although sprinting is not as popular as rugby and baseball, there is still a population base that likes sports.

When there are athletes like Su Feng and Bolt who surpass ordinary human beings, it is just like how Prefontaine caused the whole American running craze in the 70s.

Su Feng and Bolt have not only formed a craze in the United States, but also a craze that is even greater than it was in the past.

On the track, eight athletes are ready and standing in their positions.

Su Feng happened to be Gatlin on the left and Blake on the right.

Su Feng is on the third track, and Bolt is on the seventh track.

Around the runway, there was a large number of media, among which almost all the well-known American media came.

This is indeed very rare in the United States, where rugby and baseball are the mainstays, and basketball and major league football can only be ranked behind.

In fact, not only in the United States, but also in Europe and even the Middle East.

It is also enough to see the influence of the golden generation of track and field in the world.

Waving his hand in the direction of the red flag on the sidelines, Su Feng immediately began to focus on the game.

In this game, Bolt still came. With their unyielding temperament, it seems that they must be tough to the end in the seven Diamond League games this year.
