In the evening, after a simple opening ceremony and a good night's sleep, the world-class competition began.
actually.
Even Zhao Haohuan is a little nervous now.
The world championship is now almost a "nightmare" word for Chinese sprinters, except for Liu Xiang.
Don't talk about coming here to be a green leaf. Being a green leaf is a good thing. Basically, it's like being ravaged wildly and traveling in a round.
An unfortunate thing happened in the evening.
Wen Yongyi may have been too excited and sprained his ankle a little when going down the stairs. At that time, he thought it was no big problem, but when he got up in the morning, his ankle became swollen.
Huh.
No one else has this kind of luck.
Although I was frustrated, I had no choice at the time. It was impossible to close things like this just for a game like this.
After everyone comforted him, they went to the competition site together.
Olympski Stadium.
After the high jump, triple jump, 3,000 meters, shot put, and 60-meter hurdles, the 60-meter event begins.
12 o'clock noon.
The women's group goes first, and the men's group comes behind.
Chen Juan looked extremely nervous.
She was obviously more nervous than she was at home.
The first time she skipped the intercontinental stage and entered the world stage, she was a little unsure. But in fact, Su Shen told her, don't worry now, don't think too much about winning or losing, just play well, because...
Her strength may be at the top in the country in 60 meters, but to the world, her 60 meters seems a bit "weak".
Simply put, it is very difficult for her to reach the finals.
This is not to underestimate her, but it is the best level in the country right now, which is this result.
Without training in physical fitness, let alone women, men would also look at the final stage with despair.
Throughout history, the masters from our country's traditional system may be the top Li Xuemei.
For the rest, even Qin Wangping, the current "Asia's No. 1 Sister", is pretty awesome, but even if she comes out now, it's just... a round trip. Even after her peak season, with a 60-meter score of 7.26, she still couldn't get the first place in any group stage in this competition.
So cruel.
And this is still counting her extreme PB.
Because at this year's Moscow Indoor Championships, the first place in each group of the women's 60m preliminaries was 7.10+.
It's so exaggerated.
What's more, Qin Wangping's best score was 7.26 in one year. The rest of his peak period was between 7.30 and 7.40, not to mention the decline period and early childhood period, which were all above 7.50. This result is only domestically achieved, but it is uncompetitive in the international women's 60m category.
Therefore, even though Chen Juan had a best PB of 7.388 in 60 meters, she still entered the finals with no hope.
7.388, the national indoor track and field championship gold medal score, you know, here, in each group, it is about a mid-range level. It even has to benefit from the fact that there are not so many participants in the women's group, otherwise the middle of each group may not be safe.
But it is not a good thing to always grow up in the domestic greenhouse. You have to experience it.
So Su Shen told her, just give it your best and don't be burdened.
Chen Juan was in the fifth group, which was the last group. Looking at the names of this group, Su Shen judged that it was the worst group.
The probability of advancement is still high.
Bang——————————
After the first shot, the French female super star, Christina Aaron, easily ran a 7.15.
Really, he was so breathless that he achieved this result that could break our country's 60-meter women's national record.
Although Christina Aaron is now over 30 and 33 years old, her sports career is extremely long. Can you imagine that she was born in 1973, and she continued to work hard until 2012~2013.
In other words, this "old aunt" only retired at the age of 40.
The most terrifying thing is that she was 40 years old and ran away on November 27th!
With this result, Qin Wangping might be struggling now.
And she can still do it at the age of 40.
Introduction is the gap between the international bureau and the current domestic bureau.
She is also recognized by the IAAF as one of the top ten female flyers in the history of track and field.
At this age and running so fast, Chen Juan's outlook on life was refreshed for the first time.
Because it's really too fast.
The people she saw in the country were not worth mentioning now. They were beaten casually in the preliminaries.
And it is easily a gap of more than 0.2 seconds.
This is a terrifying gap within 100 meters, let alone 60 meters on a shorter track.
A moment.
Regardless of whether she had a proud mentality before, it was all wiped out by the performance of French star Christina Aaron. The second place is the British star Joyce Maduaka. She scored 7.36 and advanced to the second place in the group.
It is also an achievement that Chen Juan cannot achieve now despite her best efforts.
Even in third place, he got a score of 7.40.
Chen Juan was stunned.
After the first group passed, Chen Juan was completely dumbfounded by the top three results.
She used to know that international results were much faster than domestic results, but she didn't expect... that it would be so much faster.
This is already an achievement that she can't even imagine right now.
In the era when 7.38 was the winner of the national competition, these people's preliminary results were simply "astonishing."
Bang——————————
After the second group came out, Belgian star Kim Gervat won the first place in the preliminaries with 7.16. She was also second in the women's 60m group at the 2004 World Indoor Track and Field Championships.
Another preliminary score of 7.10+.
The second place in the group is Larisa Kruglova, a veteran who plays at home. She was born in 1972 and is now older than Christina Aaron. But she also easily broke through the preliminaries and got a score of 7.36, which is currently beyond Chen Juan's reach.
Then the first place in the third group was Elena Daniliuk Nevmerzhitskaya, 7.16. The second place was Heidi Hannula, who got a good score of 7.35.
By now, Chen Juan could hardly close her jaw.
This kind of "super result" in the preliminaries was really difficult for her to accept instantly.
Suddenly, she even felt it - the domestic duel was like a fight between elementary school students.
Even if you win the national gold medal, you are not qualified to join the "Adult Bureau".
No wonder in China, Brother Tim always reminds me not to be complacent. Except for a few people, the domestic level is not competitive at all. The victory is deserved.
because……
You can't win in China these days, and you don't even have the qualifications to be "cannon fodder" when you come out.
No chance to play at all.
…
"Observe carefully, recognize the gap, and then try to catch up step by step." Su Shen suddenly spoke up at this time. He knew that this huge gap between women was very shocking, but sooner or later Chen Juan would have to face it, otherwise she would It is impossible to fundamentally adjust the mentality.
After the fourth group ended, a series of prompts sounded on the electronic broadcast, and Su Shen asked Chen Juan, who had finished warming up, to prepare to play.
Seeing Chen Juan's appearance, several experienced domestic kings frowned and said, "That's not good. Sister Juan is a little too tight. Look at her expression, it's like she has lost her facial nerves. In such a competition, There will be an impact.”
"There is nothing we can do about it." Hu Kai has more experience, but Zhao Haohuan said: "The gap in strength is too big. After staying at the top of the country for a long time, it is inevitable that you will feel uncomfortable. It is natural for people to be nervous."
"It will get better when she plays more games."
Regarding Hu Kai's statement, Su Shen agreed. There is no way to stimulate growth more than a large number of games.
Domestically, especially for the women's group, if they can't come out, they really have no intention of becoming "hothouse flowers".
There won't be any competition outside.
If you want to become an international powerhouse, you have to come out and "get beaten" first.
Bang————————
After this shot, Chen Juan ran very hard in the preliminaries, which can be seen from her movements and expressions.
And using too much force is not necessarily a good thing in a sprint race.
Although he finally ran a score of 7.47, which can be regarded as the last normal promotion place in the group, Su Shen seemed to think that it would be better to listen to his own advice and get an ordinary replacement.
But judging from today's situation, Chen Juan was too tight. Maybe as she was running, her mind went blank and she forgot everything.
At this time, I remembered that she was actually a little younger than Su Shen.
In an ordinary family, she would still be a little girl, and she would be cared for and pampered in every possible way.
But, everyone grows up like this.
Competitive sports are particularly cruel, and there is no time to wait for you to cry.
Su Shen patted her on the shoulder to express comfort, and everyone came over to enlighten her softly. Seeing that she suddenly became the "group favorite", Chen Juan finally came to her senses and felt sorry for her for not listening to Su Shen. pre-race advice, a little guilty.
The first shot was so hard, and the shot at four o'clock in the afternoon, I'm afraid it would be a little boring after recovery.
Moreover, he ran like this with all his strength, and his strength was indeed not displayed well.
But now that it has happened, Su Shen also accepts the reality.
As for the women's team, it is easy to achieve results in China. If you look at Chen Juan's domestic medals and records, it has proven everything.
But internationally, this difficulty will suddenly become greater.
It may even be bigger than men who can achieve the same level.
At 12.40, almost less than 10 minutes after Chen Juan finished the last group of the women's group, the men's 60m was about to start.
Russian and English radio broadcasts played in rotation.
There are a total of 7 preliminaries for the men's 60m at the IAAF World Indoor Championships in Moscow, which are divided into three shots.
Su Shen is in the seventh group, Hu Kai is in the first group, and Zhao Haohuan is in the third group.
…
"Brother Kai, just go at a constant speed after you go up. You don't have to fight too hard. In your group, just run above 6.75. Don't waste too much energy and keep it for the back. If you have the chance, you can do this..." Su As soon as God said these words, Hu Kai immediately understood why the "Su Shen core small team" could be in such good shape every time in the game, because...
Can this ability of prediction reach this level? Just tell you how much you should play?
Isn't it a bit outrageous?
because of this……
You can minimize unnecessary losses and psychological stress.
Of course, the premise is that you need to trust him absolutely.
Hu Kai glanced at Ning Debao and Yuan Guoqiang on the side. Seeing that they had no intention of stopping them, he took a breath and nodded. If this advice is useful, it will be a great help to Hu Kai, who is also participating in the World Indoor Championships for the first time.
And he is no longer a child like Chen Juan.
He is a man who has participated in many intercontinental competitions. His mental quality is stable in the preliminaries.
It just depends on whether this kind of scalpel-like pre-match tactical guidance has any effect.
After Hu Kai finished the inspection, he put on his number plate and walked to his third lane.
At the international level, the first shot of the men's 60-meter race is about to begin.
PS: Also, you will arrive at the battlefield in the next five seconds~~~
