Chapter 296 Amazing 400m
After arriving at the training ground, Song Tao muttered to several athletes.
"Coach, it's not a joke, Yi Dun is really going to run 1500 meters?"
"Yes, it seems unlikely. His decathlon 1500-meter score doesn't seem to be outstanding."
"Of course, among all-around players, his score of 1,500 is very outstanding, but compared with our special players, it is still not enough."
Several 1500-meter special athletes felt that Yi Dun was a bit unreliable to participate in this event.
Song Tao said to the few people with a serious expression: "Don't talk nonsense, you seem ignorant."
"The 1500-meter event in the decathlon is the last event. After experiencing the first nine events, the all-rounder is exhausted, so his grades are almost normal. If he comes up and runs directly at 1500 meters, the grades will definitely be much better."
"And, you are all athletes, who is Yi Dun? Are you guys not sure about his pervert?"
"Before the World Championships, who dares to say that Yi Dun can win the championship in the long-distance running event? I'm afraid some people are still waiting in their hearts to watch the fun, but what about it? They won four gold medals in the long-distance running of the World Championships and won all gold medals in the long-distance running event of the World Championships!"
"Now Yi Dun may surprise us in the 1500-meter event? Don't you want to be inferior again in the future? Are you not jealous when you watch other teams win gold in the World Championship?" Song Tao had a tone of regret.
He didn't know if the athletes under his command were jealous of other track and field teams winning gold, but he was extremely jealous of them anyway.
"Remember, check the situation later. If Yidun really performs poorly, don't win too hard to prevent Yidun's confidence in the 1500-meter event."
"Try to be as leisurely as possible." Song Tao instructed again.
...
After a while, Director Xu took Yi Dun to the training ground.
The training base is not big, and everyone on the base immediately knew that there are many people coming to the training ground, and they are all preparing to see Yi Dun's performance in the 1500-meter event.
They were extremely curious. Yi Dun had not tested 1500 meters. When they were practicing decathlon before, they had also seen Yi Dun's score of 1500, which was not particularly outstanding.
Today, I suddenly wanted to train for 1500 meters with great fanfare, but I don’t know what happened.
...
Yi Dun couldn't help but smile bitterly as he saw more and more people watching the training ground.
He really didn't think about the big fantasy test. He just wanted to try to run directly at the start of the 100-meter sprint, which would probably be a 1500-meter score.
If the grades are good and can be so good that they can win gold, then Yi Dun is equivalent to winning a gold medal in vain and there is no need to register for this project specifically.
Theoretically, you can win up to 11 gold medals in a decathlon event...
Ten events are the same as one, plus the gold medal of the decathlon total score, this is 11 gold medals. If Yi Dun can reach the top of all these ten events in the future, he can win 11 gold medals if he only participates in one decathlon.
...
"Yidun, fellow villager, I have been wanting to have a good chat with you, but I have never found a chance."
"My hometown is from Zaozhuang, not far from Songyang." After seeing Yi Dun, Song Tao immediately walked up quickly and greeted Yi Dun.
Yi Dun also knew that the thin middle-aged man in front of him was Coach Song Tao, so he hurriedly said hello.
"Hello Coach Song, please trouble Coach Song today."
"Well, what's wrong with trouble? It's just to win glory for the country. And we have a relationship with fellow villagers. Isn't it a waste to say that trouble is not a matter of time?" Song Tao said with a laugh.
"Young guys, come here quickly. First, get to know your new teammate Yi Dun, and we will be a family in the future."
Yi Dun was full of black lines, and he didn't say he wanted to enter the 1500-meter track and field team?
The only thing Yi Dun wants to do today is to do a test, but he has no intention of joining the team.
However, seeing Coach Song's enthusiastic appearance, Yi Dun couldn't speak and remind him.
"Coach Song, look at you, you're like an old bachelor who has married a wife."
"That's right, Old Song, can you be more reserved!" Among the onlookers, there were many national team coaches who were familiar with Song Tao, and they couldn't help but tease him loudly at this moment.
When Song Tao was said this, his old face turned red immediately.
"What kind of reserved or not? You guys are just jealous. Anyway, Yi Dun can't train under your hands."
It is indeed impossible for Yi Dun to train under these coaches, because these are all coaches of the women's team.
"Okay, stop messing around."
"This is a serious matter. Hurry up and start the test to see how Yi Dun's performance is. We can also make plans for the next step." Director Xu spoke directly, which calmed the scene down.
"Yes, Director Xu, the electronic timer has been put in place. I will act as the starting commander and you will be the chief referee."
"Yidun, come on!" Song Tao finally said to Yidun again.
...
With the attention of dozens of people on the scene, Yidun's 1500-meter test officially began.
It is not much different from the five thousand-meter event. The 1500-meter event is not divided into tracks. Several players are waiting for the gunshots of the starter Song Tao within the arc starting line.
In recent years, some experts have begun to propose the view that the 1500-meter project is divided into different paths.
In fact, the initial track races were not divided even for 100 meters. Later, some sprint events began to adopt the method of track races.
I have to say that running in a lane can actually better reflect the athlete's true level. Many times, if you don't split the lane, it will be difficult for athletes to achieve their best results.
With the improvement of athletes' level, the current 1500-meter event has gradually transformed from the original endurance type to the speed type.
Especially during the start stage, athletes' starting speed is much faster than long-distance running events such as 5,000 meters.
As the competition in the track becomes increasingly fierce, crowding and collision are inevitable now. A player who could have run 3 minutes and 50 seconds may only be able to run 4 minutes in the end.
The supreme pursuit of sports competition is actually not to win medals, but to break the limits of human beings. This kind of running method now undoubtedly hinders the limits.
Therefore, it makes sense for experts to propose that the 1500-meter project be separated without any distinction.
However, it will take at least ten or eight years to truly implement the things proposed by experts. It is hard to say whether Yi Dun's career can be waited until that day.
...
"Bang!" The starting gun fired.
Six contestants ran out.
It is not an exaggeration to say that judging from the athlete's running wildly, those who don't know about it thought they were running four hundred meters.
The 1500-meter event is such a feature. At the beginning, all the players rushed forward and all rushed out at a speed of 100 meters.
However, due to the different situations of each athlete, the duration of the sprint must be different.
Yi Dun's speed is not considered a strength, but other players don't say that the speed of 100 meters is really much faster than Yi Dun.
"Yidun, come on!"
"Brother Dun, hurry up!"
The crowd cheered for Yi Dun.
Yi Dun on the track clearly felt the difference from the decathlon 1500-meter event.
When I was running the decathlon 1500 meters, everyone was very tired because it was the last event of the two-day schedule. Even though I knew I had to start rushing wildly, I couldn't get up.
Yi Dun can easily get the lead.
But now all the special players around are fierce. After starting the run, Yi Dun was mixed with the crowd and failed to get the lead position.
But it doesn't matter. Yi Dun knows his strength in endurance. Although he can't lead the way now, when other players' sprinting momentum retreats, he will definitely get the lead.
After about rushing less than 200 meters, the contestants were already showing signs of weakness and their speed gradually slowed down.
Just as the track entered the straight road, Yi Dun surpassed the two of them one after another and rushed to the leading position.
"Damn, Brother Dun is so stamina-powerful. He rushed for 200 meters and still had the strength to sprint."
"Dun Ge'er has obtained the leading position. I don't know how long it will last. After all, 1500 meters is different from 5,000 meters or 10,000 meters. I'm afraid that after Dun Ge'er sprints, he will not be able to do it."
"Shh, don't talk, let's watch slowly. I have a premonition that Dun Ge'er's sprint distance is definitely much longer than we imagined!" After seeing Yi Dun get the lead position, everyone on the sidelines started to talk.
The leading position in the 1500-meter event is still very important, otherwise the players would not have been rushing around at the beginning.
Now Yi Dun has successfully won the lead. Not to mention the results of the competition, at least this is a good sign.
...
Yi Dun, who had won the lead, felt very happy.
In this test, he mainly tried to test how long he could hold at the speed of his rush.
The longer you persist, the greater the advantage in the 1500-meter project.
In the blink of an eye, a lap of 400 meters had already been completed.
The crowd at the scene was already shocked. Yi Dun didn't slow down at all at all at the distance of 400 meters, and rushed at the speed of starting!
There were many top domestic sprinters on the scene. They could naturally tell whether Yi Dun had slowed down or not.
At least from the naked eye, Yi Dun's speed at the first 400 meters was quite average, without a significant slowdown.
"Good guy, Dun Ge'er is indeed not a human being. Did someone notice that he had run four hundred meters just now?"
"I didn't pay attention. Anyway, it's less than 50 seconds. Good guy, that's enough to participate in the 400-meter World Championships."
"What a monster..."
Everyone exclaimed, Yi Dun was qualified to participate in the 400-meter event of the World Championships with his 400-meter score just now!
Of course, there is little chance of winning the championship, and it may not even reach the final.
However, Yi Dun's events have nothing to do with the 400-meter events. Now the 400-meter World Championships can achieve the standard results, which is already extremely amazing.
Chapter completed!
