Sprint champion: start standing on the Olympic field

Chapter 95 Golden League
The IAAF Gold League started in 1998.

The reason why it is called the league is because the IAAF connected several independent competitions in Europe at that time.

In addition to the prize money for the winners, each competition station also set up a 50-kilogram pure gold ingot as a reward for the entire league, which will be shared by undefeated players at each station, so it is named the Golden League.

As the saying goes, there must be a brave man under a heavy reward. Since 1998, under the promotion of the IAAF, the Gold Race has become the most important series of events in the international track and field world every year. struggle.

In the five years from 1998 to 2003, the Golden League set up seven European competitions every year, in Rome, Italy, Oslo, Norway, Paris, France, Berlin, Germany, Zurich, Switzerland, Brussels, Belgium and Monte Carlo, Monaco.

There are a total of 6 competitions with 12 male and female competitions in each competition, and the projects will be different every year.

2002年以前，只有夺得7站中5站以上单项冠军的选手才有资格分享50公斤黄金，2001年有6人获此殊荣。

In 2002, the IAAF increased the difficulty, stipulating that only players who have won all 7 championships can share the gold, and finally 4 people won the prize.

In 2003, the IAAF reduced the scale of the competition, canceled the Monte Carlo station, reduced the 7 races to 6 races, and stipulated that only players who won all 6 champions and won the finals could share the gold.

2006年，黄金联赛将于6月18日在挪威卑尔根开始，之后将分别在罗马（7月2日），巴黎（7月23日），苏黎世（8月6日），布鲁塞尔（9月3日）和柏林（9月12日）进行。

Players who have won all six championships will be eligible to participate in the IAAF Gold League Finals held in Monaco from September 9th to September 18th, and will eventually participate in the distribution of the gold prize.

The events set up in 2006 are men: 100 meters, 110 meters hurdles, 200 meters, 800 meters, 400 meters hurdles, triple jump.

Women: 100m, 400m, 100m hurdles, 1500m, 3000m, high jump.

Su Feng is going to participate in all 6 races this time. It can be said that this is the first time that Su Feng has officially landed in Europe to participate in this series of competitions, so the entire Su team attaches great importance to this.

And to participate in all 6 races including the subsequent finals, means that from June 6 to September 18, during these three months, Su Feng will have to spend in Europe and go through seven different competitions. This is a test for Su Feng's body, and it is also a huge test for Su's team's logistics support capabilities.

In every place, Su Feng can't just go to the competition. He has to adapt to the venue in advance and train as usual.

Therefore, the arrangement of accommodation and training venues is not a small test for Team Su.

On June 6, Su Feng arrived in Norway directly by plane from New York, and then arrived in Bergen by car.

Bergen is the second largest city in Norway and has the University of Bergen, one of the institutions of higher learning that Norwegians are proud of.

The University of Bergen ranks around 130 in the World University Alliance, which can be described as a world-class institution.

Su Feng's training in Bergen was held in the stadium of the University of Bergen.

Norwegians like chasing stars, and they also like track and field sports. When Su Feng was training on the playground, he also attracted the attention of local college students, but no one came to disturb Su Feng, so that Su Feng's training could proceed normally.

However, there were bursts of exclamations from the sidelines from time to time, which still showed Su Feng's popularity and attention in the local area.

After all, Su Feng's posture and record in New York a few days ago were really domineering!
In addition to the sour American media, the media in Europe and other regions are relatively friendly. They objectively introduced Su Feng's achievements to the people of their own countries, which aroused widespread attention.

As for China, let alone the absolute headline treatment, especially Su Feng's gesture of pointing to the sky at the end, was quoted by almost all the media.

And for the Chinese people, Su Feng finally started to run the 200 meters in the world-class competition, and got such a strong result, which is also a concern of the Chinese people.

Sure enough, a player who can become a trapeze in the 100 meters will not disappoint in the 200 meters.

Now the common people have turned their attention to the 08 Olympic Games. With Su Feng's strength, it is definitely not a problem to get the Olympic 100-meter and 200-meter A standard. The question now is whether Su Feng can win the gold medal.

Yes, it is a gold medal!

On the one hand, Su Feng's strength is enough to hit the gold medal.

On the other hand, the hearts of ordinary people have also improved. We Chinese want gold medals.

Whether it's table tennis or women's volleyball, we all go for the gold medal.

The reason why some other sports do not aim at the gold medal is not because the Chinese people's pursuit is not high, but because the strength of the athletes does not allow it. As long as the strength is enough, our Chinese people's goal will of course only be the gold medal.

Today is June 6th, the second day after Su Feng arrived in Norway, because the time difference has not completely reversed, Su Feng just did some basic training, and ran a few standard 13 meters to find his condition, and then Returned to the rented hotel.

In fact, the University of Bergen welcomes Su Feng's training and accommodation here, but in order not to trouble the other party too much, Su Feng still declined the other party's invitation for accommodation. Anyway, the hotel is nearby, and the price is reasonable for Su Feng. It's not expensive, and it's better to live outside.

Back at the hotel, Su Feng lived alone in a standard room. He Jun and the others went to prepare their own affairs. Su Feng was also happy to relax, and then picked up the computer to log in to QQ, and chatted with a stranger.

A stranger indeed.

On the afternoon of the race in New York, Su Feng received a friend request from a stranger.

His QQ number is only known to those who have a certain relationship, so Su Feng did not directly refuse the application after receiving it, and was going to agree first, and then see who it is.

If it is an irrelevant person including an advertisement invitation, he can just delete it.

As a result, after the two chatted, Su Feng discovered that this was one of his fans, and the two of them chatted very speculatively, so he didn't have the idea of ​​​​deleting it, and now the two of them chat more frequently than Su Feng and several fans. Dude is still tall.

This person is indeed familiar enough, and Su Feng feels that this person should be the kind who usually talks a lot and chirps, but he is not annoying.

"Hey, Su Feng, how's it going? Have you been to Norway? I'm really envious. I wanted to go to Norway several times but failed. I heard that the scenery there is so good."

"It's pretty good. The four Nordic countries, the environment is of course very good, but it's a bit humid."

"It would be nice to go in winter. I heard that the snow over there is beautiful, and you can see the aurora in winter. It's very romantic."

The two chatted like this for a long time. It seemed that every time Su Feng stopped, the other party could find something to talk about. Finally, the other party seemed to have something to do, and the chat ended.
