Chapter 416(1/2)
After agreeing to Yi Dun to participate in the triathlon project, today's meeting was basically over.
At the London Olympics in August this year, the projects that Yidun participated in were decided at this conference.
There are thirteen gold-winning points in the track and field events, but Yi Dun definitely does not have so many projects to participate in.
Decathlon, four long-distance running, two-time race walking, hammer and 800 meters, a total of nine events, can bring 13 gold medals to Chinese sports.
In addition, there is also a weight lifting of 105 kg or above, and a 120 kg male freestyle wrestling.
If nothing unexpected happens, Yi Dun will definitely participate in the men's basketball game. Although this is not a gold medal, Yi Dun even attaches more importance to this men's basketball game than other events.
Finally, there is the triathlon that you may participate in. Although this project has not been confirmed yet, Yi Dun feels that there should be no big problem and he will definitely be able to qualify for the competition.
And Yi Dun felt that not only 100% chance of winning the championship, but at least 95% must be more than 95%. With his endurance, it is unreasonable to lose an Iron Man game.
"Okay, then today's meeting ends here."
"Yidun, on behalf of the General Administration of Sports, I would like to thank you for your contribution to Chinese sports. I wish you a victory in the London Olympics and a triumphant return!" The leader stood up and stretched out his hand at Yidun.
Yi Dun walked over and shook hands with the leader.
If Yi Dun made any contribution to Chinese sports, he must have made contributions, but Yi Dun is not the kind of person who does not know how to be grateful.
I have contributed to Chinese sports, so Chinese sports have also given myself a stage to show myself.
...
After the meeting, Yi Dun did not leave Beijing directly, but went to the track and field training base to find some old friends to gather.
Liu Xiang started the training camp early. He was very sorry for not winning the gold medal at the previous World Championships. This year's London Olympics is the best time for him to win the gold medal, and it can be said that it is the last time.
At its peak, Liu Xiang was dominant in the 110-meter hurdle project.
Although it is not as desperate as Yi Dun, as long as Liu Xiang performs normally, he can basically win gold.
But now with the increase of age and the impact of injuries, although Liu Xiang still has a chance to win gold, he can definitely not talk about his dominance anymore.
"What? Are you going to register for the triathlon?" Liu Xiang and other old friends couldn't help but show a helpless expression when they heard that Yi Dun was going to register for the triathlon.
Everyone is human, why is the difference so big?
Almost all athletes are "one by one" and there are very few athletes who cross major events. Yi Dun is not just cross major events now, but he crosses so many events that he crosses are outrageous.
Track and field, weightlifting, fighting, basketball, are not satisfied. Judging from Yi Dun's posture, he is about to start getting involved in swimming and cycling!
These two projects are completely incompatible with the projects involved in Yi Dun before. I am afraid that others would never expect that Yi Dun would be interested in these two projects.
Yi Dun was not interested in swimming and cycling. What he was really interested in was this triathlon.
"Well, give it a try. I think there is still hope to win the gold." Yi Dun smiled at the people.
Several people rolled their eyes immediately, "Please remove the three words "Hope". I really don't believe it. If you are not 100% sure of winning the gold, you will suddenly tell us that we are going to participate in the triathlon."
"Yes, we are not outsiders, so why are we humble to us?"
"Then let's congratulate Yi Dun in advance. He won 16 gold medals at this London Olympics." Everyone smiled at Yi Dun.
In the evening, everyone had a meal together in the cafeteria of the base. That night, Yi Dun boarded a plane and returned to Jibei City.
Early the next morning, Yi Dun contacted the Provincial Sports Bureau and wanted them to help find two coaches for him.
A bicycle coach, a long swimming coach.
In fact, this bicycle coach really doesn’t matter. Yi Dun mainly wants to learn to swim for seniors.
Swimming can be divided into long-swimming and short-swimming, just like there is a difference between long-distance and short-swimming in track races. Because of the difference in length and short track, the tactics adopted by athletes must be very different.
The Provincial Sports Bureau naturally supported Yi Dun strongly. In the afternoon of that day, three people walked into Yi Dun's house.
These three are road cycling coaches, long-swimming coaches and triathlon coaches. In order to satisfy Yi Dun, the Provincial Sports Bureau directly gave a big gift package.
There was not much time left before the qualifying round, so Yi Dun didn't dare to waste time. He talked to the three coaches to roughly understand some of the triathlon skills and precautions.
Because this triathlon covers three major events, there are still quite a few things to pay attention to. If you are not careful, you will easily cause fouls.
After learning theoretical knowledge, Yi Dun started training with three coaches in the next half month when CBA had no competition.
If you want to say how high the level of these three coaches is, it will definitely not be enough, but it is definitely more than enough to train a novice like Yi Dun.
As February enters, Yi Dun received an invitation from the General Administration of Sports of China. In less than a week, the triathlon competition in Changshou District, Chongqing will officially begin.
Yi Dun was a little puzzled when he heard that the competition was set up in Chongqing, which was extremely far away from him, but then he understood it.
The location of this triathlon competition is not something that can be done anywhere. It must have suitable natural waters, and there must be roads suitable for long-distance running and bicycles around the waters.
This natural water area alone may have many cities in China.
The current world record for triathlons is 1 hour, 48 minutes and 24 seconds. If you want to break this record, it is actually not a difficult task for Yi Dun now.
First of all, the last 10-kilometer road race is definitely an unparalleled advantage for Yi Dun. You should know that Yi Dun is the world record holder of the men's 10,000-meter long-distance race, and other triathlons must have an unparalleled gap with Yi Dun in this regard.
With this advantage alone, Yi Dun felt that even if he could not break the world record, winning a gold medal would definitely not be a problem.
The initial triathlon was actually much more difficult than the current triathlon. At that time, the track length was 4 kilometers of swimming, 180 kilometers of bicycles, and marathon long-distance running.
The horror of this track is self-evident. Just by looking at the world record, you can tell that the best result in the world is 11 hours, 43 minutes and 58 seconds.
It's chilling to think about it when it's nearly 12 hours of competition.
If it is better than this old-fashioned triathlon, Yi Dun must have full confidence to break the world record. In terms of endurance, Yi Dun asked himself that he must be the strongest person in human history, no one.
Unfortunately, the old-fashioned triathlon is now impossible to appear on the stage of the World Championship because the competition takes too long. Only a very small number of European and American countries are holding small-scale competitions to entertain themselves.
...
On February 12, with about fifteen minutes left before the start of the game, Yi Dun had already entered the water with a group of players waiting for the starting gun to fire.
Before getting into triathlon, Yi Dun, like most people, felt that the 1.5-kilometer swimming schedule started was an athlete jumping into the water from the shore...
After training, Yi Dun discovered that this was not the case. The athletes gathered in the water first, and each player was equipped with a small boat. When the starting gun sounded, the players would start the water from the small boat and start their own schedule.
I have to say that this kind of game experience is quite novel for Yi Dun.
"Bang!"
As the starting gunshot sounded, more than ten triathlon players entered the water collectively and started today's competition.
At present, the development of domestic triathlon events is not good, mainly because the competitions are all road races and there is no ticket income.
In addition, there are few people following and there is almost no live broadcast income, so Yi Dun was lucky to meet the domestic triathlon competition this time.
After entering the water, Yi Dun began to flap.
It is really suitable to use swim postures that are easy to shape. The dog paddle I learned before is not so easy to correct in a short period of time.
The dog planer type naturally consumes more physical energy at the same track length, but Yi Dun doesn't care about this physical energy consumption.
With just this length of the schedule, Yi Dun really doesn't care about the extra physical loss. Anyway, he will definitely be able to maintain sufficient physical fitness to finish the schedule.
Seeing that the splashes caused by Yi Dun were extremely scary, all the contestants around him were hiding Yi Dun as much as possible.
I'm not running on the road now. If Yi Dun gets cramped and grabs the contestant next to me, with Yi Dun's strength, everything will be really done.
Therefore, many contestants are afraid of being trapped in Yi Dun's side for their own safety.
The swimming track is actually not long at all, only 1.5 kilometers, but it is quite difficult to complete these 1.5 kilometers while maintaining the speed.
Some amateur swimming enthusiasts can definitely complete such a long schedule, but the speed is quite touching.
"Puff."
Yi Dun was like a land duck that accidentally fell into the water, causing huge waves on the water. If Yi Dun were short and thin, then the waves would probably not be so scary...
A super strong man who was 1.9 meters tall, flicked, and the scene was so chaotic.
But just because of Yi Dun's swinging method, the speed is really not slow.
If someone else plucked his arms around, Yi Dun might have pulled them twice, and he was like a water surface engine, tirelessly plucking forward.
Just scattered it, but Yi Dun took the lead and led all his opponents.
This time, many leaders came to watch the game, and they showed their concern for Yi Dun.
Seeing Yi Dun shook his opponent far away with his not-so-standard swimming posture, everyone was speechless.
If this is a short swimming, if Yi Dun wants to win the championship with his method of striking, there will definitely be no chance. After all, the track is so short, everyone has sufficient physical fitness, and they must have put all their strength forward.
But now it's long swimming, so you can't rush forward with all your strength. They have to carefully allocate their physical strength, but Yi Dun doesn't need to allocate at all. This is why Yi Dun can lead everyone.
"It's really unbelievable. Why do I think if Yi Dun practices again, such as adjusting his swimming posture, he might win us a few gold medals in the long swimming in the future?"
"You really don't want to say it. I feel that Yi Dun really has such talent. At least Yi Dun's height is not at a disadvantage compared to those top swimmers."
"It's too much of a loss for height. Phelps is 193 cm tall, but weighs only 79 kilograms, three centimeters taller than Yidun but 21 kilograms lighter."
"Let's talk about this, it mainly depends on whether Yi Dunle is willing to enter the swimming field. If he wants to, let alone long swimming, I think that he can win all the gold medals in short swimming."
Several leaders stood on the shore and began to discuss. Because of Yi Dun's glorious historical achievements, these leaders were extremely optimistic about Yi Dun.
However, they also knew that there was only a little time for the Olympics, and Yi Dun could not enroll in all the events endlessly, so they really didn't care whether Yi Dun had any idea to participate in the swimming event.
Anyway, Yi Dun has won enough gold medals, which is enough to make the Chinese sports team ranked first in the medal list. No matter how many, it will actually not be of great significance. At most, it can only be said to be icing on the cake.
Yi Dun had already finished the swimming track early and started to get ashore.
To be continued...
