The lead of this group of athletes was too slow in the early stage, and this result was also expected by Director Ma.
However, Zhang Guan's performance made Director Ma feel great gains.
"Older, how does Zhang Guan run?" Director Ma asked.
"Are you asking about performance or running?" Yu Guidao said.
"In terms of results, this 1 minute and 51 seconds is definitely not Zhang Guan's extreme result." Director Ma looked at Zhang Guan, who was leaving the field, and then said: "Let's talk about running!"
"The running method Zhang Guan reminded me of when he ran 400 meters. In the 800-meter race, Zhang Guan still saved a lot of physical strength in the end. This kid does have special talents in physical reserve. "Director Yu paused, and then said: "What I doubt is that his physical strength is so good, why not directly lead to the end? Then he can run at his own rhythm and definitely get better results. "
"I can't figure this out." Director Ma took a deep breath and lowered his voice, then asked: "Older, how fast do you think Zhang Guan can run?"
"It's hard to say, after all, I'm not specializing in middle-run, but judging from experience, Zhang Guan's 800 meters should be able to run within 1 minute and 47 seconds." Yu Guidao said a number that even he felt quite high.
"Is it less than 1 minute and 47 seconds? That's a first-rate performance in Asia." Director Ma's voice changed, and then said: "Do you think Zhang Guan will participate in the Asian Games?"
"Do you want Zhang Guan to run the 800 meters for the Asian Games?" Yu Guiguan's eyes widened in surprise.
"I just talk casually." Director Ma motioned to sit down under the guidance, and then said: "But Zhang Guan seems to want to go to the Asian Games for 800 meters."
"No!" Yu Guidue immediately shook his head: "He is now tired of taking part in the 100m, 200m and 400m races. At most let him go for a long jump! I have to run 800m? I really want to take him When the animals are called!"
Director Ma smiled embarrassingly. Although Director Yu is the deputy head coach of International Athletics, he is also the coach of the sprint event and will naturally prefer the sprint event. Therefore, it is also common to oppose Zhang Guan's participation in the middle distance race.
I saw Director Ma went on to say: "In fact, before this, I was on a phone call with Zhang Guan."
Director Ma told Yu Guiguan the content of the previous conversation with Zhang Guan, and Yu Guizhi suddenly fell into silence. After a long time, Yu Guizhi said, "Yes, this kid is not ambitious. He wants to participate in the 800 meters and 1500 meters of the Asian Games. It is in line with his personality."
"There is a saying, oh right! The world of genius is not what we can imagine!" Director Ma made a joke, then said: "I always thought that a person's energy is limited, it is unlikely to be in every one All sports have achieved very high achievements, but now it seems. There are always things in the world that I cannot understand."
"Don't sigh, Zhang Guan wants to participate in the 800 meters of the Asian Games. What are your plans? Give me a word." Yu Guidao said.
"I haven't decided yet. I was thinking, if Zhang Guan can win an Asian Games medal in the middle-distance event, it's okay to send him to try it. Our country's middle-run level is too weak, and the middle-run It has not always been valued by anyone. If Zhang Guan participates in the middle-distance race. If I can wake everyone's attention to the middle-distance race, I think it is worth it." Director Ma said.
In China, middle distance running is indeed the weakest track and field event. In terms of attention, middle-run is certainly not as popular as sprint. People all know who is the 100-meter world record holder, but who will remember the middle-run world record holder. Therefore, the most top-ranking track and field athletes in China will definitely choose the sprint event.
For those track and field athletes with average explosiveness but good endurance, the first choice is race walking or long-distance running. Race walking has always been the strength of the national team. Both men and women have the strength to win championships in world-class competitions. Since the "Majiajun" era, the long-distance running project has continuously achieved results in the world, and its attention and training level are higher than that of middle-distance running.
Director Ma, as the head coach of the national team, of course, considers issues from the entire track and field career. Since the appearance of the two athletes Zhang Guan and Liu Feiren at the Athens Olympics, the development of short track and field events in China has been extremely rapid, and a large number of outstanding young athletes have emerged. The long-distance running has always been developing well. Marginalization.
Especially after Zhang Guan won several 400-meter championships, the attention of the 400-meter crowd increased instantly, and even the popularity of Varina also increased rapidly in China. Many ordinary people know that a white foreigner named Varina America is Zhang Guan's main competitor. At the same time, some athletes who originally practiced 800 meters are ready to switch to 400 meters, which makes the development of middle distance running more and more weak.
Zhang Guan is now the focus of the whole people. If Zhang Guan really has the ability to win the middle-run medal of the Asian Games, or even the gold medal of the middle-run project, then the middle-run project will definitely be valued by people immediately. The environment is clearly favorable.
...
On the second day of the game, Zhang Guan had only one game, which was the men's 1500m preliminaries.
The strength of domestic athletes at 1500 meters is slightly stronger than 800 meters. The rise of the Majia Army in the early 1990s directly led to the domestic long-distance running. Although 1500 meters is a middle-distance running, because the technical characteristics are the same as long-distance running, 1500 Mi was also a beneficiary of the rise of the Majiajun at that time. In the early 1990s, a number of excellent athletes appeared.
The number of domestic athletes who practice 1500m is more than 800m, so there are more people participating in the 1500m competition, but the competition is still divided into three groups, because the 1500m start is not a split race.
In split games, athletes each occupy a track, and the number of participants in a game is limited. In non-divided games, athletes stand in a row, one person, two people, three people...In short Just stand on the runway. Especially in the 10,000-meter long-distance race, the athletes are inherently slim. It is also possible for 17 or 8 people to run at the same time in a game.
There are a total of 13 athletes in Zhang Guan's group, including two very good 1500m athletes, one named Tang Baojun and the other named Yang Anyue. The 1500m level of these two men is top in the country, and they have won the domestic track and field championship.
The starting point of 1500 meters is behind the grab line. The athletes stand on the starting line in an arc. The athletes on the outer runway stand relatively forward, while the stations on the inner runway stand relatively backward.
At a distance of 1500 meters, the tactical arrangement becomes very important. And the more experienced the athletes, the better the execution of tactics, so even if the athletes with rich experience in the game do not have the strength of the first place, they may win the championship.
Before the game, the coach began to arrange tactics for the athletes, and coach Zhou also called Zhang Guan to his side.
Coach Zhou itself is a special coach for middle run. Especially in the 1500 meters, they are very good, so the strength of the provincial team athletes in the 1500 run is very strong. Coach Zhou can give Zhang Guan the quota for the 1500-meter run, which also shows that the provincial track and field team attaches great importance to Zhang Guan.
Coach Zhou looked at Zhang Guan and thought for a long time without knowing what tactics should be arranged. The provincial team originally gave Zhang Guan a quota for the middle-run race, which was originally a face-saving act. He did not expect Zhang Guan to get any results, but yesterday's 800-meter game surprised Coach Zhou. He also sees that Zhang Guan's 800-meter limit is definitely more than 1 minute and 51 seconds. According to Zhang Guan's physical strength, he can definitely make faster results.
"What tactics should be given to Zhang Guan? The more long-distance running tactics are, the more 1500-meter tactics are already." Coach Zhou was silent for more than twenty seconds, and finally said: "Well, come on Run well! Take care to protect yourself, don’t get injured, it doesn’t matter what you score."
Coach Zhou put on a posture of "just have fun". Let Zhang Guan be speechless.
This is not the case for other coaches. According to the rules, only four of the 13 athletes in this group will eventually qualify. According to the proportion of promotion, the competition in this group is more intense than the average sprint event, so the coaches are very serious about giving Players arrange tactics.
After a few minutes, the athletes were on the starting line. Zhang Guan was split into the middle position this time, so he needed to the inside in a game.
Athletes of 1500 meters are generally tall and thin, but few domestic athletes can exceed one meter and nine. As a sprinter, Zhang Guan obviously has much more muscles than middle and long distance runners, so he suddenly appears in the crowd Standing tall.
For those on the scene, this game is obviously very interesting. The strength of this group of athletes is relatively high. Both Tang Baojun and Yang Anyue are capable players to win the championship, and Zhang Guan's 1500m debut is what everyone looks forward to.
With a gunshot, the game began.
This time Zhang Guan did not immediately start the sprint skills. In the 800-meter race yesterday, Zhang Guan started a sprint that exceeded the distance of other athletes by several meters. Then Zhang Guan had to slow down in order to follow. It made Zhang Guan feel a little more than worth it, so after summing up his experience, Zhang Guan simply started slower at the start and could keep up with the pace of the big group.
So Zhang Guan started to move to the inner runway at a normal pace, but Zhang Guan was not good at grabbing the road and lacked experience, so he was constantly stuck in the body by other athletes, waiting for him to merge into the innermost runway. At that time, it became the last one.
"Woo..." Many people exclaimed, Zhang Guan, who often leads in sprint competitions, even fell to the last place, which made the audience instantly interested.
However, sports professionals have not responded so much. This is a 1500-meter middle distance race. The first 100 meters of the ranking will not determine anything. The final sprint is the key. The start fell to the last place, and the example of getting the first place in the final overtake often appeared in the game.
Zhang Guan also doesn't care about it. In the 1500m race, there is a distance of more than 1000m. Athletes will run in the same group at a constant speed, and they can't pull away from each other. Therefore, following the first runner is also running, follow The penultimate run is also a run, everyone's speed is the same, no difference.
Therefore, Zhang Guan stayed at the last place honestly, closely following the penultimate place. (To be continued.)
