Sprint: This champion is a bit weird

Chapter 13 Wenhao is full of ghosts!

In the preliminaries, Wen Hao ran 10 seconds 64 at about % of his power. Wen Hao felt very good about himself.

Neon veteran Shingo Kawabata, who was ten years older than him in the same group, had a time of 10 seconds.

It is not difficult to see from the replays of the game that Shingo Kawabata did not perform at his full strength, but Wenhao felt that he should not have let go as much as himself.

According to the records on the IAAF official website, Shingo Kawabata's top 10 results in 2000 meters were concentrated between 2003 and . Although he is still a top player in Neon this year, his strength has declined a lot.

Sapporo Minami Chuhei Memorial Tournament on July 7, 10 (+10.31m/s);
  Okayama Prefecture National Sports Festival on October 10, 24 (-10.44m/s).

The results of these two shots are Kawabata Shingo's best performance this year. In other times, he has achieved results of 10.5x and 10.6x.

Xiangjiang's Deng Yijun ran 10 seconds 67, and Baodao's Lin Youxian ran 10 seconds 71. Just looking at their almost ferocious faces in the replay, you can tell that they all gave their best.

As for the other four players from Austria, North Korea, South Korea, and Mongolia, they were all outside 10 seconds.

Seeing the report card of his group, Wen Hao's mouth twitched subconsciously.

As expected of 2005, this report card is indeed very characteristic of the times.

After the promotion was confirmed, Wen Hao did not leave the field immediately, but stayed on the field waiting for Hu Kai.

Anyway, there are only two groups in the preliminaries, so it only takes a few more minutes to wait.

The second group came on stage very quickly. Hu Kai was in lane 5, Li Qingxuan was in lane 4, Xuanji Chaohara was in lane 6, and Wang Shiwen was in lane 7.

The competition in this group is quite fierce, and it can be seen that the expressions of several masters on the field are quite solemn.

Although we already know the results of the first group of players and have a good idea of ​​the qualifying line for the finals, there are only two supplementary places. It is of course better to try our best to advance directly.

The preliminaries are at 10 a.m. and the finals are at 4: p.m. There is plenty of time to recover in between, so unless you have an absolute advantage, no one will dare to take this shot.

"Set——"

"Snapped--!"

From the start, Asahara Xuanji felt that his shot was not going well.

Although the specific starting reaction time is not yet clear, it is estimated that it will not be within 0.180 seconds.

After the start, although the gap between him and the players next to him quickly widened, as a super-class Asian player who once had a PB of 10 seconds, this is just normal performance.

When he reached the 30-meter mark, he felt that he was at least one position ahead of the other players.

"Although my feet don't feel very smooth, with my ability, I can easily advance to the finals and then return to China with a championship. This season can be considered a successful end."

While running at high speed, a series of thoughts flashed through Asahara Nobuharu's mind.

But soon, this thought disappeared as a figure beside him came into view.

"Is this the Chinese guy from the fifth lane?"

For a moment, Asahara Xuanji only remembered that the fifth player next to him was a Chinese player, but he did not remember his specific name.

In mainland China, Hu Kai's title of "Spectacle Flyer" has already started with his victory in the World University Games. But for Nobuharu Asahara, who has competed in the international arena for many years, it is normal to be unable to remember the name of a Universiade champion.

Although the Universiade has "World" in its name, anyone familiar with track and field knows that most experts don't care about the "World Series" of the Universiade, and their level is not high.

But this Universiade champion, who left no impression on Nobuharu Asahara, now showed strength far beyond his expectations!
  There was a sudden change in the stadium, and the Chinese audience in the auditorium immediately cheered loudly.

Sixty meters later, Hu Kai overtook Nobuharu Asahara!
  "How is it possible? How is it possible?"

Nobuharu Asahara was suddenly a little panicked. He was obviously a "hardened veteran" and was once Asia's top sprinter, but now he was overtaken by a latecomer, and this latecomer was also Chinese.

How can he accept this?

However, the game is a game. In this fleeting 100-meter race, if you make a slight mistake, you will lose everything.

Even though he tried his best to catch up, Nobuharu Asahara was never able to close the gap due to his poor condition, and eventually lost to Hu Kai.

After crossing the line, Nobuharu Chaohara gasped violently and his face turned pale.

Born in 1972, he is already 33 years old this year. His condition has been ups and downs, and now he has encountered such an unacceptable situation. How can he feel better?

He raised his head and glanced at the real-time rankings on the big screen, and confirmed that he was only second in the group. He sighed angrily at Hara Xuanzhi, turned around and walked out of the field.

Wen Hao was quite surprised when he saw Nobuharu Asahara angrily leaving the scene without even paying attention to his own NHK TV reporter.

Regarding this East Asian Games, he only remembered that the final 100-meter champion was Hu Kai, and he did not know why Nobuharu Asahara lost the game for whatever reason.

Although Asahara Nobuharu is indeed older, if I remember correctly, he was still able to run within 07 seconds from 08 to 10, and was still ranked among the top in Asia, second only to reaching the Olympic 20-meter semi-finals. Naoki Tsukahara.

But judging from the performance of this shooting match, Asahara Nobuharu's condition is obviously not very good.

This is good news for Wen Hao!
  Not long after, after Hu Kai greeted his opponents and greeted the audience, he completed the rendezvous with Wen Hao.

"I thought it was going to be a fierce battle. Who knew that Asahara Xuanji was not as strong as I thought." Hu Kai said with a relaxed look.

"It can be seen that his condition is indeed not good, but we cannot take it lightly. Who knows whether he can adjust in the finals this afternoon?"

Although he said this, Wen Hao knew very well in his heart that although the interval between the preliminaries and the finals was six hours, it was difficult to adjust to the competitive state in six hours.

It is already early November, which is the time for sprinters to enter winter training. Nobuharu Asahara's last game was twenty days ago. It is normal for him to be in poor condition at this time.

That is to say, the National Games will be held in mid-to-late October. Chinese athletes have maintained a good competitive condition through continuous training, otherwise they will not be able to take advantage of others.

Hu Kai nodded and suddenly said impassionedly:

"We are well prepared for the afternoon finals. No matter whether it is Nobuharu Asahara or Shingo Kawabata, in short, in our territory of China, we must do our best to keep this gold medal!"

Wen Hao smiled softly: "Brother Kai, come on, I'll just run behind and watch your performance."

"Tch, you kid is full of ghosts!" Hu Kai curled his lips, obviously not satisfied with Wen Hao's answer.

"Professor Li Qing clearly remembers your training data these days. Combined with your performance in the National Games relay finals, I'm sure you have the ability to run under 10 seconds!
  You should be serious about the afternoon finals. Let's have a good match and let me see the strength of this talented young man like you. "
