Chapter 169 The King of Track and Field, an invincible monster!

43.82 seconds. After Michael Johnson retired, no athlete could achieve this result. Today, Variner did it. He is worthy of the title of Johnson's successor.

In any level of competition, as long as there are no accidents, this result is enough to win the championship and shock the whole world, but today, an accident happened.

Zhang Guan's 43.67 seconds is even more dazzling and shocking than Varina's 43.82 seconds!

In the 400-meter sprint event, the top ten results in history are all created by Americans. The first is of course Johnson’s world record of 43.18 seconds, and the second is Johnson’s previous world record of 43.29 seconds. After that, except for Americans In addition to Watts' 43.50 seconds, the remaining seven 400-meter best results were also created by Johnson.

The 43.67 seconds run by Zhang Guan is just the world's tenth 400-meter sprint time. Before this result, Johnson created 43.66 seconds in Lausanne, and after that, John also created 43.68 seconds in Zurich. .

Varina stared blankly at the scoreboard. He once ran a time of about 43.80 seconds in training, so he was always confident in himself. Even though Zhang Guan ran 43.99 seconds in Oslo, Varina Still have the confidence to win.

Wariner has always felt that Oslo lost the game because of his own carelessness. As long as he takes the game seriously and does not relax during the whole process, he will definitely be able to defeat Zhang Guan. But today, this 43.67 seconds told Varina that even if Varina did not relax, even if Varina tried his best, he still could not defeat Zhang Guan.

43.67 seconds, a time that Variner had never touched in training, appeared in front of his eyes today, how could he not be shocked?

In addition to the shock, it was more of a blow to self-confidence. Variner knew that there was no excuse for his loss in this game. He was in a good state today, and he also tried his best in the game. However, he still lost, losing in hard power!

Not far away, Coach Hart's face became more serious. For Coach Hart, it is not terrible that Zhang Guan has mastered the new technology. What is terrible is that Zhang Guan destroyed Variner's self-confidence. What a world champion needs most is not superb skills and extraordinary talent, but a champion's heart. Once the athlete loses the heart to win the championship, the champion will be farther and farther away from him.

It seems that the first task now is to help Varina regain confidence! Coach Hart thought silently.

...

In the athlete's rest area, Montgomery looked at Zhang Guan excitedly and applauded continuously. The smile on his face was extremely sincere, as if he had won the championship.

Powell looked at Montgomery with some incomprehension. He didn't understand why the former world record holder behaved like this. It stands to reason that both Montgomery and Variner were Americans. If Variner lost the game, Montgomery should It is to feel disappointed, but now Montgomery looks very excited.

Crawford, who was beside Montgomery, couldn't stand it any longer. He said to Montgomery, Tim, well, the celebration should be over. After all, we lost the game.

Losing the game? No, no, no, I don't think so! I will win the game! Montgomery's doll showed a surprised smile on his face, and then said: You saw it just now, Zhang Guan ran out It took 43.67 seconds! This should be the fastest 400-meter time after Johnson! Zhang Guan is so fast, he must have tried his best in the race just now, and he has no energy now! Zhang Guan has no energy, and after five Ten minutes is the 100-meter sprint race, Sean, do you know what this means? Haha, one of our strongest competitors has been eliminated! We are one step closer to the championship!

Sean Crawford frowned: Tim, haven't you watched the 100-meter sprint in the Athens Olympics?

Montgomery nodded: Of course I saw it. Zhang Guan ran very fast at that time! Green, Gatlin, and you were all left behind by Zhang Guan.

Didn't you watch the semi-finals before? Crawford continued: Zhang Guan and Green fought so fiercely in the semi-finals, we all thought that Zhang Guan had no energy, but in the finals However, he is the one with the most abundant physical strength reserves! Zhang Guan has a unique secret in physical strength recovery.

The interval between the races was two hours, but today we only had less than 50 minutes! Montgomery continued: And you ran 100 meters that time, this time it was 400 meters, four times the distance, or even more Four times the energy consumption! With a time of 43.67 seconds, Zhang Guan definitely does not have any energy left! No one in this world can recover energy in such a short period of time! Unless he is a monster...

Monster? Crawford repeated the word, and then sighed: Tim, you used the word very well. Zhang Guan is a monster! An invincible monster!

...

A city in the country.

Gao Jie walked out of the news building, looked at the empty road, and sighed softly.

Gao Jie is an art editor for newspapers and periodicals. His working hours are obviously different from those of others. He goes to work at seven o'clock in the evening and begins to typesetting and beautifying newspapers and periodicals. Deliver the manuscript to the printing house, and his work is considered done.

It was already one o'clock in the morning. After Gao Jie finished delivering the manuscript, he confirmed that there was no problem with the printing company before returning home from work. He dragged his exhausted body to the parking lot, and just as he opened the car door, he heard the ringing of his mobile phone .

Hello, editor-in-chief, I'm Xiaogao... I haven't left yet, in the parking lot... Zhang Guan won the 400-meter championship in the Golden League again? 43 seconds 67, the best time in the past seven years? Tenth in history? Newspaper Do you want to re-typeset? I'll go back right away! Gao Jie hung up the phone, turned around and walked back to the news building helplessly.

...

The schedule of the Golden League is extremely dense. Even if Zhang Guan ran a time of 43.67 seconds, the organizer did not leave him much time to celebrate, because the next game was about to start.

Next is the women's 100-meter hurdles and men's 110-meter hurdles competitions. The time between the women's 100-meter hurdles and the men's 400-meter sprint is only ten minutes apart. The hurdles are placed, and then the athletes who participate in the hurdles also start to prepare for the field.

After the end of the women's 100-meter hurdles, there was also an interval of ten minutes before the men's 110-meter hurdles event, and Liu Feiren was about to debut.

However, Liu Feiren's condition today seems to be relatively average, and his reaction time at the start reached 0.188 seconds. This is a very unqualified result for Liu Feiren who is good at starting. In the end, Liu Feiyang only won a fourth place. French local player Dou Couré is fifth.

American Trammell won the 110-meter hurdles, and the runner-up was American veteran Arnold. Liu Feiren's old opponent Alan Johnson was also unlucky and abandoned the race.

However, there is a young player who has attracted everyone's attention. He is the Cuban player Roberts. He won the third place in the competition and is regarded as a big upset in the competition. But Zhang Guan knew that in the future until Liu Feiren retired, Roberts would be Liu Feiren's biggest competitor.

The subsequent women's 100-meter sprint race was also a game that attracted worldwide attention. This is the comeback battle of the legendary American female trapeze Marion Jones. As a result, Jones easily won the championship with a score of 10.92, offering a more perfect comeback than Montgomery.

After the women's 100-meter sprint competition, the men's 100-meter trapeze competition will begin immediately, and Zhang Guan will appear again.

...

At the starting line, Zhang Guan looked very calm and unhurried, showing no sign of fatigue at all.

Sure enough, Zhang Guan's physical strength has recovered, this pervert! Forget it, just leave him alone, as long as I run at my own level! Powell turned his head and focused on his track.

After a whole year of fighting last year, Powell no longer had any hope of defeating Zhang Guan. An athlete younger than himself and with a higher level really made Powell unable to summon up the courage to challenge. However, Powell, who gave up the idea of ​​competing with Zhang Guan, has improved a lot in his performance this year.

On the other side, Sean Crawford did not give any hope to the championship. The 200-meter sprint champion of the Athens Olympics is still very clear about his position. His 100-meter strength is not as good as Zhang Guan, and judging from the current situation, he must not be Zhang Guan's opponent in the 200-meter event.

Only Montgomery didn't think so.

Zhang Guan doesn't look very tired, he must be bluffing! He has just experienced such an intense 400-meter race, and it is impossible for him to recover his strength in such a short period of time. In the next race, I have a good chance. As long as I can beat Powell, The champion is mine! Montgomery thought silently, he had only played against Zhang Guan once, and he didn't know some of Zhang Guan's unique abilities.

One minute later, the athletes were ready, and with the sound of the starting gun, the 100-meter sprint race officially started.

Zhang Guan started normally, accelerated normally, and after 60 meters, he was already in the lead.

At 70 meters, Powell rushed to the second position, throwing off the surprised Montgomery.

Montgomery was fully expecting that Zhang Guan would slow down due to lack of physical strength, but at the end Zhang Guan ran faster and faster, and crossed the finish line first, with a time of 9.72 seconds. Powell also played well, and the final score of 9.77 seconds also showed the strength of a super-class athlete.

Montgomery, who was the third to cross the finish line, looked at the score on the scoreboard, and the expression on his face became very exciting. The score of 9.72 seconds obviously shows that Zhang Guan is not only in good condition, but also has plenty of physical strength, otherwise it would be impossible to support his explosive power.

Surprised? Crawford walked to Montgomery's side, and continued, As I said just now, that guy Zhang Guan is simply a monster!

...

Gao Jie came out of the news building again, looking at the empty road, he sighed again.

Gao Jie looked at his watch. It was already past two o'clock in the morning. Zhang Guan, a 400-meter champion in the Golden League, made him work overtime for more than an hour. The manuscript was sent to the printing house.

Finally I can go home and sleep! Gao Jie had just opened the car door when the phone rang again.

Hey, editor-in-chief, I'm Xiao Gao... I haven't left yet. I'm in the parking lot... Zhang Guan won the 100-meter championship in the Golden League again! The newspaper needs to be re-typed? Gao Jie almost cried: I'll go back right away...

The bitter editor Gao Jie turned around again and walked back to the news building.

The first chapter was delivered, and yesterday was the day I received the most monthly tickets, thank you everyone! Recently, I try to write more than usual every day, save more manuscripts, or wait for the manuscripts to be collected to explode a few chapters, thank you for your support!
