“What? Break a national record!” ZHANG Guan was taken aback this task. ZHANG Guan had the best level of just two national athletes, the national record for ZHANG Guan it is too far away, simply can not climb the peak.

“What is this broken system, this task impossible to complete it! National record how can so easily broken, if I can break the national record still doing here alone. I now run 10 seconds 38, the current national record is … … By the way, how much is the national record with …… ”

ZHANG Guan suddenly remembered, the national record at this time seems not fast, in 10.10 seconds to be away.

“Ten seconds to a few significant?” ZHANG Guan carefully recalled a moment, just remember that ran 9 seconds 99 Su Flyer, but always remember the current 100 meter record.

While thinking, ZHANG Guan down the runway,  Chen Lao came near.

“Old Chen, I’m qualified for.” ZHANG Guan Chen Lao ran all the way around.

“You just drop a large portion of the second in the preliminary round when not rushing so fierce, to ensure that the cut on the line, do not do our best, after all, there will be a rematch to retain some strength.” Chen Lao speak.

“I know.” ZHANG Guan opening replied.

ZHANG Guan Chen Lao will be pulled near, pointing to the side of the guide opening presentation: “This is to guide the national team track and field coach.”

“To guide Hello!” ZHANG Guan immediately with guidance in greeting. He would have noticed in the guide, after all, a bald head is too conspicuous, and to guide and dressed in sportswear, ZHANG Guan very natural to think of guidance as a team trainer.I did not think that there is a national team coach.

“Lao Chen is really eye ah, he was again looking for a good seed.” The thought here, to guide ZHANG Guan patted on the shoulder, spoke and said: “Young man, I remember you, the next game a good run, as long as now better than poor performance, after the national team training camp, then I will let you have one chance ! ”

……

Watched after the departure guidance, ZHANG Guan was open asked: “? Old Chen, now hundred meters national record how much”

. ” In 1998,  Zhou in the National Track and Field Grand Prix creation 10.17 seconds” turned around to look ZHANG Guan Chen Lao, open asked:. “Why do you ask”

“.. Nothing I just calculate how much worse” ZHANG Guan heart secretly wondering: “If you want it, and now the national record of 10.17 seconds is Zhou, I’re just 0.21 seconds, as if it is not hard just sprint. skills upgrading, the effect and duration have improved, we might be able to reach this level. ”

Chen Lao chuckled next spoke and said: “Do not be looking at the mountain high mountain, you tell the truth now this result,

For me be reached expectations. So run down, good luck, maybe some of that energy for a medal. As for the national record, after much effort, there is a chance. ”

Speaking of Chen Lao meter record time, it is with some regret that the national record has been maintained for five years and still not break the players. In ZHANG Guan memory, this result maintained a full thirteen years, until the year 2011 National Track and Field Championships was only when the Soviet Union broke the record…

Since 2004, with the rise of the late nineties that a number of outstanding players retired, domestic Hectometer project went downhill lean phase, from 2004 to 2010, there are not a player in the game ran over 10.20 seconds fewer.

……

One hundred meters race course quickly, eighteen sessions than the blink of an eye over, the team’s coaches soon have got the cut list and the next packet. Meanwhile, ZHANG Guan name quickly spread.

10.38 seconds on the results if a year has been the year can be regarded as the fourth-fastest time, while this year’s general domestic players to play well, this result is currently ranked fifth in the year positions. Out of nowhere a man could run out of this result, naturally attracted the attention of coach’s attention.

Domestic athletes training system, the athletes are trained from childhood, County Sports Team Selection good seed from the school, the county teams with good results will be selected municipal team, good results will be municipal team provincial team select the middle and even the selection of sports schools at all levels, etc., outstanding athletes in this system as early as the layers of selection is known to everyone, and to the provincial team at this level, but also between each other know too much, which team which state just a few players, which team reserve forces in which there are outstanding talents, is no secret, even if the game is usually so-called “dark horse”, we have also recognized athletes, but usually do not pay attention to it.

But today ZHANG Guan apparently broke this tradition, 10.38 seconds to obtain preliminary results of the first to get his name quickly spread open, this time the team coaches did not realize that he actually knew nothing about these athletes, Ever since the team coaches have to ask around, hoping that ZHANG Guan origin.

When everyone knows ZHANG Guan Chen Lao is hand-picked disciples later, but showed a natural means. Following Chen is dean of track and field, and his hand-picked disciples have such excellent nature is as it should do.

Soon after the semi-finals will be held. Rematch total of five games, each of the first three into five groups plus the best scores of the fourth into the semifinals, a total of six people, competition remains fierce.

……

Chen Wenzhong is Guangxi provincial team coach track and field team sprint, his youth is also the famous sprinter, who broke the national record five times, including 96 years time to 10.20 seconds broke the national record in the 100m sprint. Chen Wenzhong retired last year, will stay in their own home team, became a trainer.

At the moment, Chen Wenzhong holding a promotion list and group list, is carefully studying.

“Preliminaries fastest time is 10 seconds 38? Who is rushing so hard, I do not know that this morning for a two season it? He called ZHANG Guan? Where came out, heard of this man.” Chen Wenzhong frown thinking.

10.38 seconds results in the eyes of coach Chen Wenzhong at this level, you can save the team when some hundred meters a brother, Guangxi and Guangdong provinces strongest sprinter also can act as the absolute main position.

When Chen Wenzhong coach rematch packet is opened, the team was surprised to find ZHANG Guan with their main players Panggui Bin inside a group.

Pang Guibin provincial team in the National Games champion made one of the hero of the 4 x 100 meters, in which players score during training well, but he was in the race the best score is 10.40 seconds  ZHANG Guan clearly better than slower.

Coach Chen then looked down, and found the two names on the list of the same group, namely Tianjin Peng local players and players Juan mountain open.

“Peng but can run into 30 players within 10 seconds, and he is the Tianjin local players, this group is certainly to be recommended for admission into the semi-finals Peng; Tsinghua Professor Lee Hu opened two years ago excavated athletes, although 18 year-old began to practice sprint, but the most recent year results progress amazing, his performance should be. “coach Chen while thinking  up and down in 10.40 seconds, while his estimate of the results written on the back of athlete names.

“This is certainly a first group of Wang Peng, the next two promotion places should be our team Panggui Bin and Hu mountain open. But this suddenly came out ZHANG Guan is an unknown factor, if he is really fast, then , Panggui Bin and Hu will certainly be a start to be eliminated. “coach Chen on ZHANG Guan’s name drew a circle, then punched a question mark.

Thinking a few minutes later, the coach Chen Pang Guibin near cried, whispered asked: “One you’ll want to take note of the first preliminary round of ZHANG Guan; he can run 10.38 seconds  may be a coincidence, but he really does not rule out the strength, so do not leave when you run power to the semi-finals qualify for the main goal! ”

At the same time, Tianjin team coach and mountain also use the same words in Hu and Wang Peng told the opening. These coaches of previous performances may not be very good, but my mind is a more than a so. This original group of eight into the Third ZHANG Guan suddenly out of such an unknown factor, so the coach in the policy choice is also biased in favor of more robust.

Chen Lao likewise ZHANG Guan cried near, ready to do before the game guide.

Old Chen looked at the hands of the packet list, this want to tell us about the other athletes ZHANG Guan same group which is worth noting, and can be followed by Chen Lao also feel a beginner with no use talking about the technical characteristics, said ZHANG Guan We may not be able to understand, understand the need time to digest understand. So put down altogether Chen Lao packet list, spoke and said: “! For a good run, strive to qualify.”

……

Contest organizers at the time of a packet to take into account the strength of factors, five teams in each group of two or three strong athletes strength, so the next quarter-final upset, and what does not appear, strong competitors have successfully advanced to the semifinals .

ZHANG Guan This is the final round of group play, coupled with the strongest local players Wang Peng exist, so it touches a lot more viewers.

ZHANG Guan stand on their own piece of the track at that moment, and instantly attracted most of the attention inside and outside the stadium, whether athletes or coaches want to be able to get to know the athletes ran 10.38 seconds in the preliminary round was the sort of person, even the referee also could not help seeing ZHANG Guan two.

But the vast majority of people watching ZHANG Guan eyes are full of doubt, ZHANG Guan looks is seventeen and eighteen of age, before it is unremarkable, it is impossible to have too strong competitive level of the preliminary round in 10.38 seconds results could be a coincidence, but this rematch will be the end of his current of the match.

ZHANG Guan and his face is a smile on the runway, with a very looking forward and looked at the front end.

“Expert sprint skills, the effect has been greatly improved, I do not know doing all they can to break the national record, but this is just a rematch, as long as the outlet on the line, there should be no need to do everything.” ZHANG Guan secretly thought .

In this case, the starting gun sounds, ZHANG Guan first time to go out, but soon found next leader of the small half a body!

ZHANG Guan start and fell behind ……
