Chapter 102 200-meter preliminaries (2)
After starting, Ye Qin began to lower his head and accelerate.
His starting reaction and starting acceleration are not fast enough. Although he has improved a lot now, compared with his ability to maintain speed in the middle and second half, this weakness is still very obvious.
Ten meters, twenty meters, thirty meters, forty meters...
The upper body slightly went forward to speed up, and gradually as the speed increased rapidly, the body gradually straightened and entered the running stage on the way.
He was in the first lane, and after looking up, he could see the positions of other players at a glance.
The advantage of starting the innermost lane is that it can clearly determine the positions of other players at a glance at this stage, but due to the influence of the curve, the arc of the inner lane is larger than that of the outsiders.
Moreover, due to the forward extension, before entering the straight, he started from the start and kept chasing the other players.
For professional athletes, this is not a problem, but for young players, their mentality has not experienced the baptism of many competitions, and any slight adjustment and change will have an impact.
The first player with an inadequate mentality is at this time, and it is easy for a player who suddenly feels that the distance between other players and you is too long, and you feel that you may not be able to catch up and your mentality is unbalanced. Caring too much about your opponent will affect your performance.
The sprint competition is very fast, and a slight change in the players' psychology will be directly reflected in the field. Even experienced professional players, in important major competitions, have examples of looking around after leading, or suddenly being chased by other players and having their mentality exploded, and they missed the championship medal.
After the 40-meter acceleration stage, Ye Qin looked up at the positions of other players. He had already felt that he was slightly behind in the starting acceleration stage, but not too much. He was very clear about his strengths and weaknesses.
At this time, in the stands on the sidelines, the black boy who had just finished the first group of preliminaries and easily won the first place in the group with 21.12 seconds, did not leave the field and was watching the game.
He didn't recognize most of the players in the third group of preliminaries, and he only focused on one thing, the Chinese boy in the red sprint suit.
After he withdrew from the 400m semi-final yesterday, the first place in the group was won by this young man who had several contacts with him. He wanted to see how the opponent performed in the 200m and whether he could really meet in the final.
“Start slower than me!”
After the gunfire of the competition, the black boy watched Ye Qin's start speed, curled his lips slightly, and then became happy again.
His height reached 6 feet 5 inches. With his height, he suffered from starting and acceleration in short-distance events, but now seeing Ye Qin's performance, he couldn't help laughing.
That feeling is very terrible, that is, I start slowly, but I end up seeing someone slower than myself.
However, this feeling lasted only a few seconds, and soon his expression became solemn.
On the field, after fifty meters, Ye Qin's speed increased, and he looked at the corner and landed in the first lane at the end, quickly increasing the speed.
During the 200-meter race, he never thought about how to master the stride and control the speed. He only thought about one thing in his mind, rushing with all his strength.
Sixty meters, seventy meters, eighty meters...
The cheers on the side of the court suddenly became louder, especially in the area where more than a dozen or twenty Chinese teams gathered on the side of the stands. Whether it was male and female athletes, whether Ye Qin could hear them or not, they all shouted loudly.
The Nigerian player Oloi Ogend suddenly felt a red figure approaching from the left side and overwhelmed. In a blink of an eye, he ran with him and quickly ran to the front of him.
Ninety meters, one hundred meters...
Bend into straight road!
The positions of the eight players in the first group of the preliminaries are clear at this time.
Ranked first was American player Lionel Larry, the black player, who was in the front with his extraordinary explosive power in the first half, followed by Namibian player Frank Presa in the seventh and Ye Qin in the first.
Namibia's Frank Presa's speed retention ability is very good, so in the last men's 400m semifinal, he used 400m as a 200m race, which led to the rhythm of the entire group.
Although he played his best in this 200m preliminary, he was much weaker than American player Lionel Larry in terms of his absolute speed.
Ye Qin was in the first lane. In the corner, he could observe the positions of other players, but when he entered the straight lane, after surpassing the second lane, Nigerian player Oloi Ogend, due to the long distance of the lane, he could not notice the positions of other players.
Moreover, he didn't want to care about the other people's location at this time. In his eyes, there was only the final finishing line.
As long as he stands on the track, he wants to win whether it is the preliminaries, semi-finals or the finals!
Only when standing on the runway, the sound of wind and footsteps whistling in his ears, and there was a harsh noise in the distance. Running with all your strength and rushing with all your strength seemed to be able to feel the value of his existence at this moment!
Accelerate, accelerate, rush!
Ye Qin had only this idea in his mind.
After entering the curve of more than 100 meters in front, all the players' speeds showed different degrees of falling. In addition to the absolute speed ability of the players, the other one is the speed maintenance ability!
There are still eighty meters, seventy meters, and sixty meters away from the finish line...
Ye Qin suddenly rushed back and killed him. Namibia's Frank Pressa's speed ability was also very good. When the speed of other players began to decline, his speed was still stable.
But Ye Qin's absolute speed was faster than him, and his legs swung rapidly. From 50 meters to now, it seemed that his speed had not decreased, and it looked like he accelerated again.
In the eyes of the audience in the stands on the sidelines, Ye Qin suddenly surpassed the opponent from the position of the sixth-way Namibian player Frank Pressa, and continued to narrow the gap with the fifth-way American player Lionel Larry.
Fifty meters, forty meters...
From the start to sprint, American player Lionel Larry has been unable to maintain his speed at all and has experienced a significant decline. He runs at his highest speed, even the top sprinter, the distance is only a few dozen meters, and it will decrease to varying degrees afterwards, but the size of this amplitude.
Lionel Larry maintained the advantage of 150 meters in front from the start, but at the last fifty meters, he could no longer stabilize.
In other words, it may be because of the preliminary round that I stood out with my strength, and at this stage I was a bit of a waste of money.
Ye Qin didn't know what the other party was thinking. He couldn't see Lionel Larry's position, but just stared at the finish line ahead, ran hard, and ran directly to the first position.
At this time, the player Yu Lianglong from the Hong Kong Island Special Administrative Region of China fell to the end on the curve, and the straight-line distance between Ye Qin and Ye Qin had exceeded ten meters on the runway.
Thirty meters, twenty meters, ten meters...
Although Ye Qin's starting reaction and starting acceleration were not ideal, he set a distance from other players with his pretty good absolute speed and good speed and endurance in the second half.
Cross the line!
The results of this group of men's 200m preliminaries jumped on the timekeeping card.
21 seconds 56!
The men's third 200m preliminaries first and successfully advanced to the semi-finals.
The American player Lionel Larry, who ran across the finish line after Ye Qin, had a time of 21.73 seconds, while the player from Hong Kong Island in this group ran at the end, with a time of 23.93 seconds!
PS: I saw the news in the morning that Su Bingtian ran 9.91 seconds in Madrid, and I was so excited! When I reached a new record in this year's indoor race, I felt that Su Bingtian could run 9.90-9.91 seconds this year. Eugene station was extremely windy. I thought it would be at a certain stop in the IAAF Diamond League or Grand Prix, especially at the Lausanne station. But I didn't expect this Madrid Challenge to come out!
Seven years ago, the national record was still 10 seconds 16 that Su Bingtian broke, but now this record has increased by 0.25 seconds! I believe that in the near future, domestic players' performance will get better and better from 100 meters to 400 meters in the field of sprinting and competitive! There is nothing that cannot be done!
Chapter completed!
