just to make those dreams come true

Chapter 166 Asian Championships ([-])
17:30pm.

"Xiao Chen, Xiao Shen, what was the problem when you two handed over the baton just now? How could such an accident happen?"

The men's 4*100m preliminaries had just ended. In the rest area of ​​the Huaxia delegation, Liu Ren called all the members of the men's 4*100m relay team together, and he asked questions calmly.But those who listened could feel that Liu Ren was not calm.

He was indeed not calm, and almost had an accident, which made him sweat from shock, and he still has lingering fears to this day.You talk about a world championship team, if they don't even make it to the finals in the Asian Championships, how will they explain it to others.Others will not consider any objective factors.

In the preliminaries just now, Shen Huan maintained a consistent fast start and fast start, leading all the opponents in the same group and entered the relay zone. The effect is very good, with his normal level.

But there was an accident in the cooperation between the relay zone and Chen Jianhai. The two staggered their hands twice, and even almost collided. In the end, Shen Huan slowed down and accelerated, and Chen Jianhai successfully completed the handover before he was almost out of the relay zone.

Fortunately, Chen Jianhai and Shen Bao broke out with all their strength, and the handover of the baton went smoothly, and they gradually regained some disadvantages. Only then did Zhao Lin rely on his strength to surpass the Bahrain team, which was second place, 20 meters near the finish line. , ranked second in the group.

Fortunately, the overall strength of the group is indeed not strong. Among the recognized Asian strong teams such as Japan, Thailand, and Saudi Arabia, only Saudi Arabia and China are in the same group. Otherwise, it would be really difficult.

When the results were finally announced, Liu Ren was in a cold sweat, because Bahrain, who ranked third in the group, was eliminated. If Huaxia did not surpass Bahrain in the end, then the result...

In the final of the men's 4*100m relay race, the top two teams in each preliminaries group will advance directly, and the remaining teams will take the two best results. A total of eight relay teams will participate in the final.

The top two in the group are guaranteed to advance, and the remaining teams will qualify for the two finals based on their performance. Bahrain's performance ranks ninth.

Returning to the rest area, Liu Ren didn't want to blame the athletes for being so thrilling. What he needed was to find out the problem. It was just a psychological effect. He tried to maintain a calm look on his face, making people look a little more serious.

Shen Bao glanced at the others. He knew that the little Shen the coach was talking about was not him, so his eyes finally fell on Shen Huan.He was the third shot just now, and he didn't see the specific process from a distance.At this time, he was also sweating for Shen Huan. Anyway, he made a mistake on behalf of the relay team for the first time, which would affect his own confidence or the confidence of others in him.

Shen Huan kept his head down, he was annoyed and depressed, and at the same time worried about his future fate.He had his reasons for the handover just now, and Chen Jianhai also had his reasons, but given the importance of their identities, if someone was to be found responsible in the end, it would obviously be him.

"When I was accelerating in the relay zone, I made some mistakes in judging Xiao Shen's frequency. The acceleration was not timely enough. When Xiao Shen came over, his speed didn't match up, and he missed it for the first time." Chen Jian was silent for a while. Yes, he finally spoke up.He also didn't want to shirk his responsibility, the first stagger was indeed a mistake in his judgment.

After confirming Shen Huan as the first baton, the assault training was more of a handover training between Shen Huan and Yang Zuyao.And it is impossible to always show the peak speed state during training.Therefore, a few occasional cooperation trainings did not allow him to have a very clear judgment on Shen Huan's speed and frequency.He had tried his best to release some of the steps just now, but the result was still less.I still know too little about it!
After Chen Jianhai finished speaking, Shen Huan, who lowered his head, could feel that everyone was looking at him. He raised his head slowly, and continued: "Coach, I missed the first time, I panicked..." Just one sentence, he then said lowered his head.

The problem is actually like this. Just now Liu Ren saw it clearly, but he had to ask more questions to be sure.

"There is still not enough tacit understanding. There is not enough understanding and cooperation with each other!"

Liu Ren shook his head slightly. Chen Jianhai didn't judge Shen Huan's frequency enough. He started a little slowly. After the password came out, he made an error in judging the frequency.As for Shen Huan, who made the wrong hand the first time, he panicked and wanted to hand over the baton quickly. As for Chen Jianhai, he also wanted to take over the baton quickly, so he consciously adjusted his lower body position, but almost bumped into him again.

In fact, it was mainly Chen Jianhai's judgment on Shen Huan's speed and frequency.Compared with Shen Bao, Shen Huan's peak speed frequency is higher, and the distance to maintain the peak speed is also longer. Now it is basically compared to 20 meters. Shen Huan can't run Shen Bao in the first 30 meters, but 60-[-] The two of Mi Jian were basically even, and in the second half of the journey, Shen Bao couldn't beat Shen Huan.Otherwise, Liu Ren would not have arranged for Shen Huan to come up so early.

"Okay, I still don't understand and cooperate less. The next step is to continue to run in, so I can only do this for the time being. Now, let's arrange the situation of tomorrow's final...Xiao Yang, you come to run the second leg, Xiao Chen, you still The third shot, the fourth shot, Xiao Zhao remains the same, as for the first shot..." Liu Ren looked at Shen Huan who lowered his head, "The first shot, Xiao Shen, run well, cooperate more and increase understanding, develop tacit agreement."

After Liu Ren made his decision, Shen Huan suddenly raised his head and looked at the coach.

I thought he would be defeated in the final, but coach Liu Ren still let him play.Liu Ren's face was still so calm, but he saw a lot of encouragement.

"Yes, coach!" Chen Huan swept away all the sorrows, and nodded fiercely with a firm expression on his face.

"Okay, Xiao Yang, you should get ready for your 200 meters in a while. I'll go and see your coach run this 400 meters!" Liu Ren waved his hand, smiled and walked towards the stands , smiling with a bit of envy.As an athlete representing the country, what a distant memory!

"Don't think about it, when no one makes a mistake, it's not all your fault, just cooperate more in the future!"

Rubbing Shen Huan's head habitually with one hand, Shen Bao said to Chen Huan with a smile.

Everyone left, only Shen Huan seemed to be in deep thought, and Shen Bao deliberately stayed. He wanted to take on the responsibility of a senior big brother, which was also the meaning of his being an old player in the team.

He needs to use his experience to tell Shen Huan that sometimes, cooperation and tacit understanding are not just what happens on the training ground and on the competition field!
"Brother Bao, I missed it the first time...I..."

"Yanzi, I don't know if you will be able to run to the individual event in the future. But I think you should have a place in the relay team. Then cooperation is very important...

What is coordination?In my understanding, let’s not talk about the required skills, those can rely on non-stop practice, training, and running-in. The key is to be familiar with the object you want to cooperate with.There are only a few people in the relay team. If you want to cooperate perfectly with them, then you must know how fast your teammates can run!What can you do when you are excited?What is it like to be emotional?How to pick up when the status is low?These need to be understood and familiarized with.

Coaches can't teach you these things. You have to observe more yourself, communicate more with others, and increase the tacit understanding between each other.This is how you protect me.Think about it..."

"Tell me, Brother Bao, do I look like a coach now? Haha!" After Shen Bao laughed, he patted Shen Huan on the head and said, "Let's go, let's see Coach Lin run 400 meters. Athlete, it should be pretty good, I'm going to have a go too!"

Being pulled, Shen Huan didn't think about Shen Bao's half teasing and half teasing, he was thoughtful, and he listened to what Shen Bao said before.Is it necessary to observe more and increase communication? ?
……

Rizal Stadium,
Pre-match inspection area
Lin Mu thoughtfully followed the staff into the roll call and inspection procedures, and his competition was about to begin!

I have led athletes to participate in major competitions, and have experienced many competitions, but the inspection area, during the competition, under normal circumstances, the leading coach is not allowed to enter.It was his first time entering the inspection area now.At this time, he could feel the depression and dullness in the atmosphere, which was completely different from what he saw outside.

Standing in the team participating in the 400-meter final, he did not pay attention to the competitors in the finals that he had determined before the competition.He already knew their information and status, and he even had a rough idea of ​​their status after glancing at them before.This is his habit as a coach.

In the process of leading people, he emphasized that the athletes should not think about your opponents after they are on the field. In the sprint event, all the so-called tactics are not important, and the key is to run out of yourself.Although there are many tactical considerations in the 400 meters, leading others to the rhythm and being led by others may have a great impact, but no matter how you calculate it, your own strength is the guarantee.

Before coming, he has fulfilled his responsibilities as a coach and considered many details, and now he is on the field.

He always emphasizes to his athletes that athletes need a clear heart, so what he needs now is to finish the race with the mentality of an athlete, a real clear heart.

It is not uncommon for coaches and athletes to have both. Many coaches of the national team have had this experience.Some projects that are not particularly demanding on physical strength even have more than 10 years of experience.

But he is different from those people. They can focus, because their own strength is inevitably less competitive at that time, and more often they act as a guiding role.But Lin Mu is in his prime!No matter which aspect it is, it is not the direction he should focus on.

Think about when Yu Weili talked to himself before, because he was concerned about the impact of switching between the two identities, he finally considered giving up future games.Lin Mu was a little ashamed of his cowardice at that moment.

After all, I am still not strong enough. Maybe after getting some, I become a little timid.Encyclopedia changed him and made him more willing to do things with full certainty in many cases.

After running this race, maybe I can participate in as few races as possible, not for fame or profit, just for those dreams.

"All participating athletes, please enter the arena one by one!" In front of the team, after receiving the notice, the staff of the team leader began to call the eight contestants to enter the arena.

Exhaling lightly, following the team, Lin Mu passed through the passage and entered the arena!
As soon as he entered the arena, the hustle and bustle and an invisible wave of heat hit him.

He has experienced the World Championships, standing in the stands, even in the Stade de France, which is surrounded by nearly 8 people, he has never felt this kind of atmosphere and atmosphere.The memory of the past, after all, is not a lot of feeling less than personal experience.In the preliminaries, he seemed to be looking at the game from God's perspective, and he didn't feel deeply.

Now deep in the track, this is just less than the aura created by Wan Wan, which made his heart jump suddenly, and a long-lost emotion hidden in his heart filled his whole body.

Are you excited?Is it exciting?Or is it the excitement of anticipation?
Countless eyes will look at you, and the roving camera will even transmit your every move and every subtle expression to thousands of people.

The final is here, the first game of my career as an athlete, starting with you...

Standing in his own area, moving his body, adjusting his breathing, he has to experience all the details that he has explained to the athletes once. This experience is amazing.

After the eight players appeared on the track and field, the big screen hanging in the middle of the stadium displayed the competition information of the men’s 400m finalists at the same time:
First Way, Mitsuhiro Sato, Japan;
Second Road, Sabioni, Saudi Arabia;
Third Road, Albihi, Saudi Arabia;
The fourth road, Linmu, Huaxia;
Fifth Avenue, Simpsons, Bahrain;

Lane [-], Shamari, Kuwait;
The Seventh Way, Shinshi Takahira, Japan;
Eighth Road, Miska, Syria;
……

Standing on the fourth track, Lin Mu glanced at the player information on the big screen, and some emotions hidden in his heart became stronger.Even if he has seen their profile more than once.

The former Asian Games champion and runner-up were black, and the players who participated in the World Championships and repeatedly reached the finals were black.Except him and two Japanese.The other 5 people are all naturalized blacks, which undoubtedly makes people feel the weakness of Asian track and field.

He turned his head slightly and glanced at a few people, and his will was much firmer.Just for these, there are reasons for him to continue to stand on the runway.

The broadcast on the arena sounded at the right time, still using Filipino English with frowning feet, introducing the players in each round.

The first way, the second way, the third way, and then the fourth way...

Lin Mu stood up straight, put his left hand on the national flag on the chest of the sprint suit, raised his right hand high, and waved his arms towards the stand he knew.

in the stands,
The area where the Huaxia delegation is located
"Brother Bao, our coach, haha!" Seeing Lin Mu standing on the track and waving his arms towards this side, Zhao Lin jumped up with a smile, happily patted Shen Baohou beside him, and followed him to the track. trainer waving arms.

Yang Zuyao was absent because he was preparing for the next 200-meter semi-final.Zhao Lin could only find Shen Bao, who was relatively close recently, to share his feelings.

Watching his coach run from the stands for the first time gave him an unspeakable feeling, which was very strange and wonderful. He seemed to feel that the relationship between him and the coach had suddenly become closer, which made him very happy.

"Ouch! I know it's your coach, please be gentle!" Shen Bao cried out in pain, this kid has really strong hands, this strength.He glanced at the kid next to him, and then at the figure on the track.Inadvertently, he glanced at Xiao Shen Huan who was beside him.

This is really in line with each other, whether it is the current master and apprentice or the former master and apprentice, this body and physique look vigorous.Shen Bao couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

Not only was he feeling emotional, but there were also people in the place where Yu Weili and several coaches were located.

Including Coach Ge, including Coach Liu Ren, and also including Coach Lao Hong who specially watched Lin Mu's game.

"Old Yu, I watched the match between Xiao Zhao and Xiao Yang before. Coach Xiao Lin taught these two athletes, regardless of others, their physiques are impressive. I didn't expect that Coach Xiao Lin is so strict with himself. This body type , I really can’t see it in training clothes! But I don’t know much about 400 meters, but I think most 400 meters athletes don’t seem to practice like this, right?”

Coach Ge also nodded. He had wanted to say it a long time ago, but although Lin Mu had to run 400 meters, he was the coach after all.It's all a colleague relationship, and it's hard for him to say a level of executive coach.

"What are you thinking, Lao Hong! Xiao Lin has been able to retire for almost two years and never forgets to recover. Although it turned out to be a misunderstanding in the end. But this perseverance is not easy. How can he relax his requirements on himself? Strange!" Yu Weili said with a smile: "As for whether it is suitable or not, Xiaolin is from a 400-meter background, and he has his own judgment. Usually, I just discuss athlete training with me, and I often don't remember to ask about his own situation. Ha ha, but It’s okay, anyway, we’ll find out later! The preliminaries didn’t look very real!”

"Old Yu, what you said last night, I looked at Coach Xiao Lin, and my mood seemed quite normal! Are you fooling me?" Lao Hong frowned, and his voice rose a little when he saw it.Veteran coaches, who have been coaching for decades, can tell if the athletes are in good or bad condition.

"What a fool, there is such a thing, but I also think that Xiao Lin seems to have a new idea, wait and see! I will talk to him later!" Yu Weili shook his head, he can't figure it out now.Anyway, it's a good thing!

Coach Ge and several other coaches looked at each other, and all they saw were doubts, obviously they didn't quite understand what might be going on in the middle.As for asking, forget it.Check out the game!
Not to mention, occasionally seeing a coach colleague on the runway is really a different feeling, and it is also a rare experience to have the opportunity to comment on him.You know, between coaches, they usually don't judge each other too much.

"Old Ge, come closer, we will take a good look together later. Let's analyze and analyze together to see how Xiao Lin managed to run this 400 meters..."

Coach Ge nodded and moved closer. He really wanted to see it.The set of theories that Lin Mu practiced in the 200 meters, the combination of core strength and physical fitness, technology and body, and comprehensive coordination, are no longer secrets in the team.Looking at Lin Mu's body shape now, it is obvious that he did not lack strength, especially his upper body.In the end, it depends on the running method and effect he uses, maybe he can find some inspiration for reference.

The 400 meters is the most demanding and technical sport among the sprint events.Coach Ge knows his own business, and now their training methods are far behind!Change is needed, and above all, direction is needed.

At the same time, in another area of ​​the stand, the same pairs of eyes were watching Lin Mu, and there were also similar words. It can be said that they have been paying attention to Lin Mu's athletes and Lin Mu himself since the Asian Championships.

"The race is about to start!" Ito Koji, who was paying attention to the track, accompanied Takano Shin, murmured.
