Born to Run

"Yechin!"

"Yechin!"

...

In the Bird's Nest Stadium, when Ye Qin's figure appeared on the field again, the audience once again rang out with shocking cheers.

For many track and field fans, even those who don't know much about sports but are full of enthusiasm for the successful hosting of the Olympic Games in Yanjing, every time Yeqin plays is a carnival and performance.

The feeling that we finally have the world's No. 1 athlete and being proud, seems to be infiltrated in everyone's bones.

Certain characteristics of our nation seem to be fully utilized at this moment. For thousands of years, we have always stood on top of the nations of the world. We want to be the best and most perfect in any field, and we are the mentality of the world’s first. , Fully revealed at this time.

After Liu Yangyu won the Olympic gold medal, the men's 110-meter hurdles project entered the field of vision of the Chinese people, focusing their attention on the track and field events.

In the relatively weak men's sprint, Yeqin's rise can be said to have completely ignited people's love for sprinting and track and field.

Like Jamaica, why sprinting has become the country's most fanatical sport, a big reason is that Jamaica's most exciting honor on the world stage is sprinting.

Therefore, generations of Jamaicans have been slowly infiltrated by this tradition and sports atmosphere, making Jamaican sprinting an iconic sport like football in many South American countries.

Standing on the track of the Bird's Nest National Stadium, although Yechin has experienced several games before and after, every time he stands on the stage of this stadium, there is still an indescribable excitement in his heart.

There seemed to be electricity spreading from the soles of the feet to the whole body, and the goose bumps on his body were aroused by the cheers of tens of thousands of people.

This shocking feeling was what he had dreamed and expected, but now it can finally be realized.

At the same time, when the men's 200m semi-finals were standing on the race track, many viewers in front of the TV also watched the broadcast video of the game.

Many people crouched in front of the TV, waiting for Ye Qin to win gold again in the men's 200m event and complete the men's 100m and 200m feats in the Olympic Games.

After the list of players appeared on the big screen, the commentator Mu Jiang's voice sounded. He was introducing the eight players who are about to start the competition:

"The first line is Gary Connaughton from Canada. This is an athlete born in 1985. He is the Canadian men's 200m champion this year, with a personal best of 20.34 seconds;

The second track is British Christian Malcolm. Malcolm was the champion of the men's 100m and 200m in the 1998 World Youth Championship. His personal best time was 20.22. Malcolm was also a former British football club Nottingham. A member of the forest team, but he finally chose the track and field event. He once said in front of the media that track and field is a more friendly sport because you are not easy to be kicked out of the field. Whether he can be kicked out in the men's 200m semifinal, we will wait and see;

Third, Walter Dix, the most important leader in American track and field besides Jason Gaby. In this year’s National Olympic Trials, Jason Gaby failed to participate in the 200 meters due to personal injury. In the event, Walter Dix won the U.S. Championship and represented the U.S. team in this Olympics;

Fourth, Ye Qin, the men's 200 meters event is Ye Qin's best event, and it is also his earliest performance. As early as when Yechin focused his energy on the 400m, his performance in the 200m exceeded the expectations of coaches and many people. As the two-time men's 200m champion at the World Championships, we have reason to believe that Yeqin will be the most powerful contender for the men's 200m champion at this Olympic Games;

The fifth track is Paul Hessian from Ireland. Paul Hessian is the same as Gared Connaughton in the first track. He is a white athlete. In recent years, the track and field are not only the face of the yellow race. Focus, the competitiveness of white people in sprint events is also gradually improving;

Sixth, Brian Dasingai of Zimbabwe, his best time in the 200 meters was 20.12. At the opening ceremony of this Olympics, Brian Dasingai played as the flag bearer of Zimbabwe, and the same is true. An experienced veteran who has participated in the World Championships in 2003 and 2005, and the Athens Olympic Games in 2004;

Seventh, Kurandi Martina, this is a familiar face. In the men's 100m finals a few days ago, Martina's performance was very eye-catching. He is also a player who can enter the 200m finals. ；

Eighth, Jamaican star Christopher Williams, who is also capable of reaching the finals, performed very well in the 200m and 400m events..."

Accompanied by Mu Jiang’s commentary, the information of the eight semi-final contestants of this group appeared on the big screen and on the TV screen:

The first one, Gary Connaughton, Canada;

Second, Christian Malcolm, England;

The third track, Walter Dix, the United States;

The fourth way, Ye Qin, China;

Fifth Road, Paul Hesse, Ireland;

The sixth way, Brian Dasingai, Zimbabwe;

Seventh Road, Kurandi Martina, Netherlands Andris;

Eighth Road, Christopher Williams, Jamaica;

Yechin, who is on the fourth track, is still the focus of the world, and basically everyone with a discerning eye can see that after the men’s 100m race, Yechin and Yousei Bot, the world’s top athletes in the 100m, will also be in the finals. Continuing their championship battle among them.

With the applause and cheers on the scene, Ye Qin first checked his running gear and adjusted it to a comfortable position again.

The 200-meter start is different from the 100-meter start. It is not absolutely perpendicular to the starting line. Instead, it needs to be adjusted appropriately according to the individual's strength feet and habits.

After adjusting the running aids, Ye Qin stood on the track and shook his body slightly, slightly stretched his limbs, and slowly stepped onto the running aids amidst the voice of the starters on the sidelines.

For this semi-final, Yeqin's preparations are still sufficient, and he probably has a certain judgment from the entire opponent's lineup.

Youssef Bot, Wallace Spilmon and Sean Crawford, several strong opponents, are in another semi-final group. The challenge he encountered in this group is not too great. Big, basically running to about 20 seconds and 10 will definitely be able to advance.

For Ye Chin, it is easy to break 20 seconds in the men's 200-meter event, and he can make more reservations in the semi-finals to cope with the men's 400-meter semi-finals ten minutes later.

"SET!"

The commander on the sidelines issued a prepared voice.

Ye Qin and seven other players made a squat start at the same time.

In the boiling National Stadium of the Bird's Nest, all kinds of sounds gradually became quieter. Suddenly, a crisp gunshot sounded.

Game start!

Ye Qin quickly rushed out of the run-up at the moment the gunshots sounded. He felt that he was in good condition. He had gone through the men's 100 meters and yesterday's men's 200 meters and 400 meters, and he will not be disturbed by the outside world. .

The sound of fast footsteps suddenly sounded on the runway.

There was a cheering sound at the same time as the players started, but the sound was only halfway through, and it suddenly got stuck there, and turned into a burst of exclamation.

"Snatched away!" The voice of Mu Jiang, the live commentator, was transmitted to thousands of households through broadcast signals in due course.

At the same time, whether it was in front of the TV or the audience, they all saw the eight players who had just dashed off the track after running seven or eight meters. They were called back by the sidelines and the referee signaled the game to restart. All players please come back. Before the starting line.

"As you can see, the race is going very intensely, and it’s still rare to get a start in the 200-meter event. The start is from Ireland’s Paul Hessian. This is the first time he has participated in the Olympics. For the level of competition, Paul Hessen had already made a start in yesterday’s semifinals, and today he appeared again in the semi-finals..."

In Mu Jiang’s commentary, the live camera was aimed at Paul Hessen, who was a little upset and dejected and walked back to the starting line. Many of them were nervous, and the audience waiting for the start of the game seemed to have a lot of people who were able to start the race. It's not a good look.

"After the start, the emotions of the players will be even more tense. In yesterday's rematch, because of Paul Hessian's start, another Jamaican player Marvin Anderson was eliminated.

According to the current rules of the IAAF, players participating in the competition will start again after the first start, and if any athletes make the second start, they will be fined out of the field... However, there is news that the international The IAAF is discussing the implementation of the new rules of'zero grab run'. If any athletes try to make a grab run in the future, they will be fined off the arena directly. "

During the period when the eight athletes returned to their respective starting lines on the corners, Mu Jiang simply popularized the knowledge about the start to the audience in front of the TV.

Soon, the game started again!

Compared with the atmosphere of the game just now, after Ye Chin stepped on the run-up for the second time, he clearly felt that the atmosphere around him had become a lot more dignified.

After taking a breath, Ye Qin adjusted his mentality, leaned over and crouched in front of the starting line, quietly waiting for the start of the game!

"SET!"

A clear preparation sound rang in my ears.

Yeqin changed from squatting to a squatting start. At this moment, his mind seemed to become empty, just waiting for the gunfire to sound.

On the side of the game, it seemed that the second shot sounded very quickly because of the first shot of the contestant.

Snapped!

Ye Qin quickly rushed out of the starting line almost the moment the gunfire sounded. He could feel that his state was at its peak and his physical condition was in good shape. The start just now was perfect.

After training in many races in the men's 100 meters and men's 60 meters, his starting reaction and starting skills have become more and more handy.

Just a few steps away, suddenly Ye Qin heard the whistle again, and the sideline called the referee to signal that someone tried to rush again.

"Someone ran away again?!"

Ye Qin slowed down, stopped slowly, and looked at the recall referee on the sidelines!

Suddenly, a huge exclamation sounded from the audience.

I saw that the recall referee went to Ye Qin's fourth lane and handed out a red card.

"Another contestant ran away!" Mu Jiang shouted again when the players stopped, but then his voice suddenly yelled in disbelief, "Ah?! This time the rusher! It's Ye Qin! This is Ye Qin who ran away!"

After the exclamation of the audience, boos broke out. Whether it was in front of the TV or the audience, it seemed that they couldn't believe this scene.

"Punished Yeqin! What a pity! We don't know whether Yeqin's shot was due to the performance of the shot, or it was caused by the pressure of the gun, or other psychological factors. But from our perspective, Yeqin At the beginning of the game, in this semi-final, Yeqin's strength did not need to start and press the gun. In my commentary on Yeqin's many games, he has never had a start.

Yeqin's starting reaction time is 0.98 seconds. According to IAAF rules, if the starting reaction time is within 0.100 seconds, it is considered a start. The standard of 0.100 seconds is the conclusion drawn by the IAAF through scientific tests. The reaction speed of the human body is almost always within 0.100 seconds. Generally, it is a gun run if it is lower than this time!

Of course, whether the reaction time of an athlete can really be within 0.100 seconds, I want to tell everyone that it is actually possible.

In a Japanese documentary, after repeated tests on athletes, the starting reaction of human beings can reach about 0.08 seconds.

And veteran Kim Collins has ran within 08 seconds in several races. In the 1990s, American sprinter Dennis Mitchell reacted within 0.100 seconds in many races, which is not considered a start. , But the embodiment of personal ability..."

With the sound of Mu Jiang's commentary, the broadcast on TV showed Ye Qin turning around and leaving the stadium.

After leaving the sidelines of the runway, Ye Qin looked back several times at the starting reaction timer on the scene. He was completely confused now.

In this game, he was quite sure that he started to start after hearing the gunfire, but he didn't know why the reaction time at the start was within 0.100 seconds.

Watching Ye Qin walk out of the arena step by step, all Chinese audiences in the audience focused on him at this moment, and some emotional female audiences even covered their lips, almost crying in their eyes.

Yechin, who made his debut in the Olympics in 2004, reached the final in the men's 200m event and won sixth place. In the 2005 World Championships in Helsinki, Yechin defeated the then thriving Jax Trin in the 200-meter event to win the championship. In the 2007 World Championships in Osaka, Yechin once again defeated the then hot champion Jason- Gaby and Youssé Bot, once again won the championship of the project.

It can be said that many people know Yeqin from the 200-meter event at first, and the world’s track and field enthusiasts and various analysts of this Olympic Games once thought that Yechin might lose to Yousse Bot in the men’s 100-meter event. But no one should be able to shake his rule in the men's 200m event.

Moreover, it is very likely that Yechin will break the men's 200m world record of 19.32 seconds set by Michael Johnson in this Olympics.

This is Yechin’s strongest event. Both the men’s 100 meters and the men’s 400 meters were not as strong as Yechin in the men’s 200 meters.

But now all hopes are stagnating here. No one in the audience will particularly criticize Yechin for failing to perform well. In the men's 100 meters a few days ago, Yechin's performance was enough to conquer everyone in the world.

However, when I really saw the sky above the fourth lane of the men's 200-meter starting line, there were still many people who could not accept it and felt very frustrated.

For those who have had full contact and understanding of Yechin, some began to question the equipment, and some impatient spectators even yelled at the Irish player Paul Hessen who had just snatched the first shot. The opponent had a start-up experience in the quarter-finals, and now it's again, affecting Yeqin's penalty. After listening to Mu Jiang's analysis, some viewers in front of the TV felt that Ye Qin must have performed supernormally.

But the game is the game!

Within the established rules, no matter how well-known athletes you have been in the past, and how strong your strengths are, you can only accept penalties if you violate the rules.

Ye Qin took a long and deep breath, and the moment he left the runway ~ www.ltnovel.com ~ bloodshot eyes faintly appeared.

It's just that it's useless to say anything at this time. He stood on the sidelines and bowed slightly to the audience. Then, in order not to affect the game that was about to start, he quickly crossed the aisles on the sidelines and prepared to leave the arena.

Several cameras on the scene stayed on him at this time, and at this time, applause began to sound from nowhere.

At first it seemed to be a corner, and then slowly spread to the audience, applause resounded through the entire Bird's Nest Stadium.

Outside the venue, many viewers in front of the TV were also applauding.

Everyone knows one thing at this time. The next race in the men's 200 meters has nothing to do with Yechin, and the semi-finals of the men's 400 meters are now only a dozen or twenty minutes away.

Can Ye Qin withstand the pressure again?

Being sent off for a quick run will have an almost devastating impact on the athlete, especially when the athlete will play the second most important game in a short time!
