Following in Bolt's footsteps

Chapter 142 Relay Preliminaries 【Subscription】

August 8, 29:12, was the time when the sun was blazing.

在5分钟前刚刚结束的男子4*100米接力预赛第1组，霉国队以37″91的放水成绩第1晋级，英吉利队和德意志队分别以38″20和38″57的成绩晋级。

The Nihong team, which had a good life, came to a standstill at the handover of the 3rd and 4th rods, and ranked fourth with a score of 38″60. This score is very dangerous.

After the first group ran, Wu Ziyi and the others went straight to the runway after waiting for a while. From the moment the Chinese team members appeared, the bottom of the TV screen gave some basic information of the players, such as name, location, PB and Birthday.

Yang Jian: "Next we saw the Chinese team play. Now everyone's thinking is to enter the final steadily, but Wu Ziyi hasn't run the relay after returning from the Bahamas relay race. I don't know how he is doing?"

The guest Hu Kai immediately answered: "I don't think you need to worry too much about this. The Chinese team entered the final of the World Championships in 87. At that time, the fourth bat was Zheng Chen. They ran to 4 seconds in the preliminaries. Zheng Chen's The split data ran to 39 seconds, which is the fourth fastest among the eight athletes. But we have seen before that Wu Ziyi's own studio account and the data of the IAAF show that his fourth split data is 05 seconds 9, with Wu Ziyi's performance in the previous 25 meters and 8 meters, I don't think I need to worry too much."

Xie Zhenye on the track was measuring his pace. He put a piece of yellow tape about 10 meters before the starting line. The purpose of this yellow tape was to remind himself that when Zhang Pei rushed to this position, he should start running.

The relay zone is 30 meters in total, the starting line is blue, and the first 10 meters is the pre-running zone. This section is not allowed to take over the baton. The runners must complete the baton in the last 20 meters of the relay zone.And "in the take-over zone" is judged by the position of the baton, not by the position of the competitor's body or limbs.

Yang Jian: "Yes, they have been practicing for a long, long time, especially Xie Zhenye and Su Bingtian, who are 2nd and 3rd. We have already seen their abilities, and now everyone may look forward to whether they can make further progress in this World Championships?"

Hu Kai: "It's my opinion to guarantee the promotion first, and then fight in the finals. Although the opponents in the same group are not weak, with their current abilities, like Zhang Peimeng can stabilize back to the peak level within 10 seconds 10, and Xie Zhenye also won the championship. He ran around 10 seconds, Su Bingtian was within 20 seconds, and Wu Ziyi even ran 10 seconds. With this average strength and the Chinese team’s handover skills, as long as they play steadily, there is no problem in advancing.”

The players in the arena are all ready, and the first players are ready at the start. The camera directly skips the South African team in the third lane, and shows Nesta Carter in the fourth lane.

Yang/Hu: "Oh, it really is Ashmead. Ashmead is the savior of the line of fire. Haha, he really didn't bring Bolt up. Jamaica is on the 4th road. Nesta Carter, Ah Safa Powell, Rasheed Dwyer and Ashmead."

"Netherlands in lane 5, France in lane 6, they are Byron, Lemaitre, Anuman and Jimmy Vicourt."

"Track 7 is Antilla and Barbuda."

Hu Kai: "Track 8 - Chinese team! Zhang Peimeng, Xie Zhenye, Su Bingtian, Wu Ziyi! Can we make history again after 87 years?"

Yang Jian: "This time for sure!"

Road 9 is the Garner team, Justin Warner, De Grasse, Rodney, Aaron Brown.

"Come on! - Come on! - Come on!" The Chinese audience in the Bird's Nest spontaneously shouted for the Chinese team, cheering for them.Of course, the camera was shown on Wu Ziyi, a popular player of the Chinese team. Wu Ziyi made a [silent] gesture towards the camera, signaling the audience to be quiet. Such a noisy environment will affect the performance of the athletes.

“On your marks~”

Holding the baton in his hand, Zhang Peimeng walked to the front of the run-up, and methodically put himself in a ready position, waiting for the gun to be fired.From the moment he entered the venue, his heart was pounding. There was a little nervousness, but more anticipation.

Wu Ziyi and Su Bingtian's strength has improved so much this year, allowing him to let go of the pressure in his heart and return to his peak state.Now this relay team is unprecedentedly strong. Zhang Peimeng and the other three all know clearly that as long as they fully display their strength and hand over the baton to Wu Ziyi smoothly, the Chinese team must be a strong contender for the medal.

Team Neon?I'm sorry that you are no longer worthy of being our opponents. America and Jamaica are our targets!
"Set——" Hearing the preparatory command, Zhang Peimeng, who had already formed a physical response in years of training, quickly raised his hips, his muscles tensed instantly, and he waited for the gunshot.

"boom--!"

"The game has started! Zhang Peimeng has a good start, speed up! Look at the handover of the first and second sticks, Xie Zhenye Qi! Handover! Oops——!"

Zhang Peimeng's start is very good. These days, he has completely focused on the relay, focusing on training the ability of starting connection and cornering acceleration.He had a good run at the first bat, and it was visually evident that he had some leads before taking the baton.

But for some reason, Xie Zhenye didn't respond when he handed over the baton and shouted "Take it!", and it was Xie Zhenye who looked back to take the baton from Zhang Peimeng.

Yang/Hu: "Oh! It's very exciting, watch the game first, watch the game first, and the second and third gangs will be handed over soon"

Although there was a mistake in the handover between Xie Zhenye and Zhang Peimeng, he didn't care. Regardless of whether there was a foul or not, he had to finish the run first!
He ran forward hard, shaking his head, although he was running hard, but now his physical strength is really weak.Daniel Bailey of the 7th track gradually narrowed the distance with him, and there was a more fierce person in the outer track——

When Asafa Powell took over the baton from Nesta Carter, he was only less than 5 meters away from the Dutch team in the 2th lane. He surpassed the Dutch team in the 20th lane within 2 meters. [-] great players!

Two or three sticks, the Jamaica team was the first to complete the handover!
The handover between Su Bingtian and Xie Zhenye went very smoothly. Su Bingtian, who took over the baton, accelerated quickly and quickly entered a state of extreme speed.Next to him, Rodney of the Ghanaian team and Jarvis of Antigua and Barbuda are not stronger than him in terms of hard power. In the cornering stage, he has maintained his speed and even slightly ahead of them.

"Su Bingtian's handover went smoothly, Su Bingtian accelerated! Hold on, the handover must be smooth!"

Wu Ziyi had already started to tense his muscles, and when Su Bingtian stepped over the pre-applied tape, Wu Ziyi quickly turned his head and started running.Wu Ziyi's signs are set very close, which allows him to catch the baton faster, because the sooner he takes over the baton, the longer Wu Ziyi's running distance will be.

The maximum running distance of the fourth stick is 4 meters, but Wu Ziyi can't wait for 120 meters!
"Take—!" Hearing Su Bingtian's cry, Wu Ziyi stretched out his left hand backwards reflexively as if listening to a gun start, pulled the baton from Su Bingtian's hand, and then quickly switched it to his right hand.

The handover of three or four sticks can directly see the situation of the scene, because the end of everyone's relay zone is on the straight line. When Wu Ziyi took over the baton from Su Bingtian, Ashmead was only one step away from the straight line. .
