Run Out of My Life

Although it is winter, Jianping is located in South China, so it is not too cold.

Especially under the rainy and snowy days that do not catch up with the cold air going south on a large scale, the weather is sunny and sunny, and the temperature during the day can reach 12 or 13 degrees. Only at night, the temperature will drop to around seven or eight degrees again.

On February 1st, after the morning questioning session, around 2:00 in the afternoon, all nine members of the sprint team appeared on the playground without a single one.

During the training session yesterday, assistant coach Zheng Wei had already informed him that the coach was to conduct an in-team test today. Everyone is a sports school student, and they are not stupid. Usually, the coach must choose someone at this time.

Although in the domestic situation, in many cases, this step is not available. The coach specifies that whoever can go, whoever can go. Say no to anyone, if you perform well, it will be difficult to get a chance. Therefore, it has caused some chaos such as going through the back door, giving gifts and red envelopes and stuffing money.

Coach Zhuang is an athlete, and he has experienced these unspoken rules. I don't say I hate it, but I really don't like it at all. Coupled with Xie Caiwen, the leader of the drastic reform, it is better to keep it simple.

Two o'clock, coach Zhuang's burly figure appeared on the playground, and his assistant coach Zheng Wei was also holding an anemometer, starting gun and other objects.

As for the electric chronograph, the sports school also had one before. At that time, it cost a lot of money to buy it. As a result, it broke down a few times. It is unknown to outsiders whether there is any tricks in the procurement department.

Small pieces of training equipment are okay to say, but there are really few people who know how to use this kind of expensive professional equipment. Xie Caiwen, who is in charge of the track and field project, has applied for funding several times, and he wants to repurchase a professional Electronic timing and scoring system for track and field competitions.

"I have a word with you before starting the test."

The nine members of the sprint team stood in a row on the playground, Zhuang Tao glanced at the document in his hand, and said solemnly.

"In April, there was a Youth Track and Field Invitational Tournament in the province, which was held in our province. At that time, people from Baodao, Hong Kong and Macao, as well as major domestic cities such as Imperial Capital will be sent here. Participate. Our sports school also has some places, which are mainly concentrated in the three events of 100 meters, 200 meters and 400 meters.”

"A contest?"

The eyes of the team members lit up. Isn’t it hard work every day just to be able to participate in the competition and be a blockbuster on the field? !

"It seems that there are quite a few competitions this year."

Those who are active and know the inside story have been thinking about some major competitions this year. Among them, Coach Zhuang just said that the Youth Track and Field Invitational Tournament is an invitation to youth track and field competitions from both sides of the strait and three places. The specifications are generally decent, and it is held in the province, with home field advantage.

Another big game is the National Middle School Student Games held in Jinling in August this year. The career of an athlete sometimes depends not only on the level of competition, but also on whether luck can catch up with the competition.

Especially in the early stages of their careers, the Chinese Games, the Universiade, and the Youth Games are usually held every three or four years. Many people will miss them accidentally because of their age. Don't miss it, you may have just started professional training, and the results will not come out.

If you miss these youth sports games, and then you want to take the lead in the domestic arena, you can only work hard in the fiercely competitive large-scale events such as various national open championships and the National Games. .

"How many people do you think you will choose this time?" Zhang Quanshan whispered in Su Zu's ear.

"I don't know." Su Zu shook his head. Before he entered the sports school, he was purely a layman. He had never heard of this kind of youth invitational competition.

Ordinary people, if they are not particularly focused on domestic sports events, probably have never heard of it. Not to mention the Youth Invitational Tournament, even if the National Games and the Asian Games are not broadcast by TV stations, not many people will know about them.

"I don't think there will be many people. Our sports school can't rank well for this kind of invitational competition, and there are definitely not many places." Yuan Chengmin on the side interjected in a low voice, obviously he knows some inside information.

"The big head is a related account and knows more than me." Zhang Quanshan saw Su Zu's doubts, smiled, and gave a wink, "When everyone has the ability, they will use it, this is the best position. It's good to fall into our hands."

"Laozhuang people are good, you don't know, except for our sprint team, the players who go to the competition are all appointed by the coach, where can there be any test selection." Don't care, a few people play ball and fight together, and they are familiar with each other. They still explain the doorway to Su Zu.

"You guys, what are you mumbling about?" Zhuang Tao roared in the direction of Zhang Quanshan and Su Zu with a cold face in front of the team.

"Report coach, we are discussing why there is no 60-meter and 4X100 relay race." Zhang Quanshan raised his hand and saluted, strode out of the queue and shouted.

"You are a living treasure, you smile every day, get out of the way."

Zhang Quanshan jumped away flexibly when he saw that he was ready to move.

Zhuang Tao didn't care, and reorganized his language, "What kind of competition do you think this is, you can apply for whatever project you want, and you can apply for as many people as you want. Your invitation qualifications are good."

The more Zhuang Tao said, the more resentful it seemed, "Don't think about 60 meters, this is a hot event in the youth competition, and the track and field teams of all sports schools in the province are about to break their heads. The quota is one for 100 meters, 200 meters and 400 meters. Haha, team events such as 4X100 relay races are also prepared for teams from various big cities.”

This is the first time Su Zu heard the inside story of some domestic competitions, but thinking about it, most people can't feel how many sports people there are, but if you really count, a sports school in a county or city There are several vocational schools, in addition to athletes from provincial and city teams at all levels, as well as special students from some well-known key middle schools in the province, no matter how small they are.

"Be content, it's good to be able to participate. Okay, don't talk nonsense, go to warm up first, and start the test in half an hour."

Zhuang Tao said and waved to a thin boy in the team, "That Lin Wenbin, your thigh muscle strain is still not healed, so you won't participate this time, you will help later. Coach Zheng helped everyone test together."

A boy in the team walked out silently without protesting. This Lin Wenbin boy is actually familiar to everyone. It may be a problem of training attitude, and he is not liked by the coach. In addition, the step jump training a few days ago was not enough to warm up, and his muscles were a little strained, so he was taken off directly.

"It's a bit of a competition."

The remaining eight people in the sprint team looked at each other, and the smell in the air was no longer the harmony of the past, but a little silent gunpowder.

Although they have been training companions all year round, they are direct competitors at this time. Competitive sports are like this. Whether it is a sports school, a professional team, or a national team, before you want to compete with other players on the field, you must first cut off your teammates who train together day and night.

Such as high-level National Games and Olympic Games, at most three or four people can sign up for a project, and the national team for special training in this project, how many people are in the provincial and municipal professional teams at all levels? I don't know how expensive the number of entries is.

The half-hour warm-up is over, and each team member begins to prepare, change the spikes, check the starting block and so on.

First the 100m team test, then the 200 and 400. The original nine-person sprint team was picked by Zhuang Tao, just enough to finish a group.

Su Zu even slandered, did Zhuang Tao deliberately remove someone to save trouble?

Before the starting line, the team member named Lin Wenbin held the starting gun high.

A gunshot rang out, and eight people ran out at the same time.

Before the starting line, Zhuang Tao tapped the stopwatch several times at the same time after the gunshot, and after the people ran out, he looked at the number on the second watch and nodded slightly.

He squatted in front of the starting line this time, mainly looking at the starting reaction speed, without the electronic timing equipment, he can make a rough estimate, but in general, the starting reaction is slow, not Too wishful.

On the other side, the eight people in the 100-meter test had reached the finish line in a blink of an eye, and teaching assistant Zheng Wei kept his eyes on the results of each crossing.

"Su Zu, this 100-meter quota must be yours."

After the 100m test, Su Zu ran first, about two positions faster than Zhang Quanshan, who was second. Yuan Chengmin's words came in fourth, and the three of them were supposed to be at the first level in their usual training. As a result, this time the team's test immediately became a new force, killing the third place in the past.

“How much?”

After a while, the team members who participated in the test and the assistant who was in charge of timing returned to the starting line. Zhuang Tao took the notebook he recorded data from Zheng Wei and asked casually.

"It's alright." Zheng Wei replied with a smile, "Some people are making progress too fast!"

Zhuang Tao opened the notebook and looked at everyone's results, his eyes widened a little, 11 seconds 21, which was just the result that Su Zu ran in this group, and the other Zhuang Tao felt that he ran well Fast, the results are around 11 seconds 3 and 11 seconds 4.

The bonuses such as planing rubber track spikes, from 11 seconds 8 to 11 seconds 2 in more than two months, this is amazing enough.

"It looks like this is going to be a talented person, Lao Xie is a bit shy this time." Zhuang Tao sighed inwardly, but he still said calmly, "Take a break for 10 minutes, wait for the next test 200 Meter."

In an hour.

In an office in the office area of ​​Jianping Sports School.

Xie Caiwen sat on the chair behind the desk, put down the sprint team test results she just got, and looked at Zhuang Tao, who was sitting on the sofa beside him and was making tea, "You have chosen this time. ?"

"There are only three places for the test results. There are three places to choose. You are the leader. You choose." .

"Don't you say you want to test in the team, I just sent it to the leader after the test."

"Hey, you're singing a red face, you go, you're a black face, I'll come, Zhuang Tao, you were not so treacherous before." Xie Caiwen reached out and grabbed a cup from Zhuang Tao's hand and just poured it The tea, and then said, "I want to make some changes. Since we are a competitive sports, we count the results. The previous set of gifts and money should have been put away, and we don't care how many people have been harmed."

"Haha." Zhuang Tao let out a meaningful laugh, took a sip of tea, and pursed his lips, "The long-distance running teams under your command, the high jump and long jump shot put, etc. will also report this time. The test results are up?"

"Report your grades? Report a fart!" Xie Caiwen rarely uttered a foul language, "I really don't know what little things are going on behind the scenes, the ones with the best grades on the list, I used to But never heard of it."

"So thank you, I'll send you the results. I don't care how you choose people. To be honest, you leaders are not good at doing things, and an invitational competition held in a province will be taken out. So many places."

"You think I don't want to, but there are too many great gods, who can afford to offend. Not to mention the teams from other cities, the people from Baodao, Hong Kong and Macao will have a few more places. , what can you do."

Seeing Zhuang Tao go silent, Xie Caiwen didn't want to continue talking on this topic, she turned her head and said, "Tell me, there are only a few people in your sprint team, what do you think."

"It's just an invitational tournament, not the National Games of the Chinese Games. It's just Su Zu's 100m, Zhang Quanshan's 200m, and 400m, whoever you want will go."

Xie Caiwen nodded slightly, pondered for a while, then sighed, "Yuan Chengmin."

"Hehe, thank you, you can't be exempt."
