Chapter 306: The Birth of a National First-Class Athlete
Everyone will experience many changes in their life.
Some changes are harmless.
For example, when I was a child, I liked to eat a certain dish, but when I grew up, I didn’t like it.
For example, a person of the opposite sex whom you liked when you were a student no longer likes you after graduation.
These changes, apart from increasing your memories, will not have a particularly significant impact on your life.
But some changes will actually change your life path.
Zhou Tao on the Olympic Sports Center track unknowingly completed the most important mentality change in his life.
Now, he has transformed from the rough guy who couldn't hold his breath and was easily affected by his own emotions into an athlete who can think calmly and is both physically and mentally capable.
Standing on the starting line, Zhou Tao's heart was hot and excited. This was his own competition mentality and style.
He loves this track and is willing to put in enough sweat for it.
Today was an important moment for him to test his training results. Zhou Tao took a deep breath.
He is completely ready.
800m group stage, come on!
Bang!
As the referee's starting gun sounded, the game for Zhou Tao's group officially began.
Whoosh!
Zhou Tao started running very fast, like a cheetah hunting prey, rushing forward.
In the starting stage, he took the advantage and was one or two positions ahead of the athletes in the same group.
After starting, Zhou Tao quickly entered the acceleration phase. www.bǐqυgetν.℃ǒm
His legs, full of explosive power, transmit majestic power to the earth.
As the arms swing, the speed of the feet becomes faster and faster.
Within a distance of less than 30 meters, Zhou Tao had already completed the acceleration and began to lead the group!
"Teacher Xu, why do I feel that Xiao Taozi is different from usual today?"
"He started running a little fiercely."
In the stands, watching Zhou Tao take the lead and start to lead the field on the track, Liu Peng, who was resting, raised his eyebrows and said in surprise.
They usually train together, and Liu Peng knows Zhou Tao's game rhythm very well.
In terms of reaction speed at the start alone, Liu Peng is the fastest among the three.
Zhou Tao was second, and Liu Yunfei was the worst.
Of course, this is also because Liu Yunfei was not a sports student before and did not receive systematic training.
Liu Peng believes that it won't take long for Liu Yunfei's reaction speed to start to catch up.
But today, Zhou Tao's starting reaction was much faster than usual.
Almost as soon as the gun rang out, he had already jumped out.
Liu Peng might not be able to detect this subtle difference if they didn't train together frequently.
Xu Jie smiled and nodded, "Very good, his start was indeed better than usual."
"It seems that our Zhou Tao is also a competition-oriented player."
In fact, when Zhou Tao was preparing on the track, Xu Jie had already noticed Zhou Tao's transformation.
Now that Liu Peng asked about it, he simply described this transformation as a contestant.
There's nothing wrong with saying that.
Some people stretch their hips whenever there is an important exam or competition.
Some people can perform at extraordinary levels at critical moments.
It is not an exaggeration to say that Zhou Tao is a contestant.
While the two were talking, Zhou Tao on the field had gradually widened the gap with the other athletes in the group.
It was only the first lap, and he was already able to form the first group on his own. This performance surprised the people who were paying attention to this group match.
In the stands, teachers and athletes from other schools or organizations were also talking about it.
"This No. 617 is a monster, running so fast on the first lap of 800 meters?"
"Looking at the timer on the field, his first lap time is probably within 55 seconds."
"Awesome, is he another national second-level athlete?"
"Today is really strange. Three good prospects who have reached the national second-level athlete standard can appear in one morning?"
"Yeah, there were only one or two in the past two days, right? Three suddenly appeared this morning? It's simply outrageous."
"Are national second-level athletes already so worthless?"
"Fuck!"
"Fuck!"
"Fuck! The first lap time was 52.46 seconds!"
"Is he running 800 meters or 400 meters?"
"Athletes who can run 800 meters will definitely do well in the 400 meters."
"What is the national standard for second-level athletes in the 400 meters?"
"His first lap time of 53.14 seconds has already reached the national second-level athlete standard in the 400-meter individual event."
"No, it can't be calculated like this. Don't you know that 800 meters is the most difficult running event?"
"He was able to run over 52 seconds in the first lap. If he were allowed to participate in the 400 meters, he would definitely be able to run within 50 seconds!"
"Yes, yes, the rhythm of the first lap of the 800 meters and the individual 400 meters are completely different."
"Damn it! If you put it like that, doesn't his 400-meter individual event meet the national first-class athlete standard?"
"Isn't this too scary?"
"Could it be that..."
…
On the 800-meter track at the Olympic Sports Center, Zhou Tao was like a whirlwind, riding a flying horse.
Behind him, even the athletes closest to him have been separated by more than 10 meters.
10 meters!
The intuitive feeling this gives people on the runway is very shocking.
Zhou Tao ran alone in the front, with two athletes behind him about ten meters behind him, forming the second group.
After that, there are the other athletes in the group.
Zhou Tao is unique in the competition!
Such a performance not only stunned the audience in the stands, but also shocked the Sports Bureau personnel who were resting on the sidelines.
"Let's see which unit this number 617 is a contestant from?"
"Participating in the 800-meter race and being able to run within 53 seconds in the first lap shows that his 400-meter flat run performance is definitely close to or reaching the national first-class athlete standard."
"Simply genius!"
"What? Zhenzhong again?"
"Okay, okay, prepare the materials quickly and send them over as soon as the competition is over."
"Hurry up and report it in the group. It's only been a few days since the Municipal Games started. I'm afraid our first competitor who has reached the national first-level athlete standard will appear!"
"It's only the group stage, can't these talented boys be eager to show off their full strength?"
"It's normal for young people to be full of energy. You and I were the same way back then. We performed well in the city games and embarked on this path."
"Haha, when you say that, it seems true. Nearly twenty years have passed in this blink of an eye. I'm old."
"No one is always eighteen, but some people are always eighteen. Being young is good!"
…
300 meters.
200 meters.
Turn into the straight.
The final sprint of 100 meters.
Chapter completed!
