One jump is enough

During the draw before the long jump, Zhang Guan got the eleventh appearance, which was relatively late among the 14 contestants. If you only participate in the long jump competition, this is a very good pick, but at the same time when the long jump competition starts, Zhang Guan will also participate in the 100m and 400m two events, so the eleventh appearance is not so ideal.

The long jump final started at 7:35 and the 100-meter final started at 7:40. The difference between the two games was five minutes. However, the preparation time for the long jump is very short, and the preparation time for the 100-meter is longer. At the beginning of the game, the long jump competition almost went on to the second half of the first test jump, and it was exactly the time when Zhang Guan had to run, so Zhang Guan must give up the first test jump.

In the preparation area for long jumpers, the former Asian record holder, Aluk Walid from Saudi Arabia looked around and found no figure of Zhang Guan, then he turned his attention to the starting line of 100 meters away and finally found Zhang Guan on the fourth track.

"The 100-meter race is about to start! According to this calculation, Zhang Guan will have to miss the first jump! What a pity. I wanted to take a good look at you. It seems that this time there is no such opportunity!" Walid thought and looked at Saladino.

"Saladino has won five wins in the Golden League. You should be the strongest player in the long jump now! I heard that you have been able to jump to 8.7 meters. I don't know if it's true or false. Since Zhang Guan can't come, today I will come to challenge you!"

Walid's face is full of confidence. This year is the best year for Walid. He has skipped the 8.4 marks three times in this year's game. If it is not for Zhang Guan's sudden appearance, Walid would have been the well deserved Asia's first long jumper.

Not long ago, Zhang Guan broke the Asian record in the National Athletics Championships that was maintained by Walid. At that time, Walid was very uncomfortable, and Zhang Guan's new Asian record of 8.52 meters was even more difficult than the score set by Walid. Walid also had a score of more than 8.5 meters in his daily training, so he felt that he could recapture the Asian record. These days he has doubled his training, just to perform well at the track and field World Cup today.

In the third appearance of Walid, both of his first two test jumps were only about 7.6 meters. This result can be regarded as the bottom of the world in world-class competition.

"The results of the first two players are not high, I still want to stabilize the first jump! First to ensure a success rate."

Walid started running, then jump, took off, landed, and finally got a score of 7.87 meters.

"The score of 7.87 meters will not guarantee that I made it to the top eight. The low jump just made me find some game conditions." Walid walked out of the sand pool while thinking.

The sand pool was quickly leveled, and the next athlete started to run. The man jumped the eight-meter line in one fell swoop and was the first athlete to cross the 8-meter mark today.

Walid was shocked by the fact that this man he knew, named Iprasi Kamejo, was a Cuban athlete. This time he also played for the South American team.

Next, the South African athlete Mokuna of the African team and the Spanish athlete Melis of the European team also successively skipped the eight-meter line.

"Oops, my first jump is a bit conservative!" Walid thought to himself.

At this time, the participants of the 100-meter sprint were being introduced on the live audio.

The American team's Tyson Gay, the European team's Obik Viru, the "African Zhang Guan" Fasuba, etc. are all old acquaintances. The substitutes for Powell was the famous Trinian and Tobago star Bourne, but these athletes were not a threat to Zhang Guan.

Before standing on the starting block, Zhang Guan involuntarily looked to the long jump field in the distance. He happened to see the biggest favorite to win the championship. Panamanian Saladino stood in the running area and began to run.

"Saladino is jumping on the 9th turn, and there are two more rounds before me. It seems that I must give up on the first test jump. It such a waste of time to introduce athletes before this game..." While staring at him, Saradino has jumped an 8.17-meter result, which is also the best result among the players present.

Although Zhang Guan was anxious in his heart, he had to participate in the 100-meter final first, so he turned his head and focused his attention on the 100-meter field.

Finally, the referee motioned the athlete to stand on the starting block and shouted instructions for preparation.

At the same time, in the long jump competition, the referee announced that due to Zhang Guan participating in the 100-meter competition, he will be postponed to be the last appearance. The athlete who was supposed to be playing for the twelfth round was now moved up by one. When the 100-meter gunshots were about to sound, he had completed his first test jump.

The last appearance was the Greek native athlete Tsa Thomas, who had a one-minute preparation time, but he did not seem to help Zhang Guan fight for time. At the moment when the 100-meter gunshot sounded, he had already started to run, and then took a foul on the line and completed his first test jump.

...

"The game starts! Burns is at the forefront, Obik Viru is close behind! Tyson Gay is catching up! More than gone, Gay leads! Wait, Zhang Guan! Zhang Guan! Go!

Leading! There are advantages, great advantages! We are about to reach the finish line and cross the line! Zhang Guan took the lead to cross the line! 9.79 seconds! Zhang Guan ran again within 9.8 seconds! The commentator finished these in one breath, then adjusted it with a deep breath, and then said, "Sure enough, Zhang Guan won the championship, a game without suspense." We congratulate him! Congratulations to Zhang Guan for winning another gold medal for Asia United. This is also the second gold medal won by Asia United today!"

"Second place is American player Tyson Gay, who ran a good result of 9.88 seconds! I think in the future, this young man may become the pillar of the American sprint. The third place is to replace Powell was Burns, although he started very well, he did not maintain the leading edge, he managed to win a bronze medal, we still have to congratulate him!"

While the narrator was talking, Zhang Guan was surrounded by reporters.

Zhang Guan looked at the long-jumping field in the distance and is now counting down for a minute, but the running area is empty and no athletes are preparing.

Zhang Guan knew that this countdown was for him. Due to the participation in the 100-meter race, the referee allowed Zhang Guan to jump to the last appearance, but adjusting the appearance order does not mean that he can wait without limit, so when the Greek player Tsathomas ended his first test jump, the timing for Zhang Guan began.

Zhang Guan shook his head helplessly. He had just carried out a 100-meter crazy sprint, which could be supplemented in terms of physical exertion, but the ligaments and leg muscles took three to five minutes to rest. Now even if he is standing in the long jump field, I am afraid it is not suitable for immediate competition.

"The 400-meter sprint race will take place after 20 minutes. I hope in this round I can jump faster so that I can have time to participate in the second round before the 400-meter race." Zhang Guan thought silently.

...

Saudi player Walid's expression is slightly dignified. Several of the players who have played behind him have skipped the eight meters. Compared with his 7.87-meter guarantee score, it has been counted down, which makes Walid urgently need to make a good result.

Walid stood in the running zone. He looked at the countdown and felt that the time was still ample, so he silently adjusted his state by breathing, and at the same time passed the technical points in his mind.

"Don't rub it, you're jumping!" Zhang Guan, who was watching from a distance, kept shouting. At this time, Zhang Guan was very anxious. He only felt that the Western Asian man in front of him was wasting time. This behavior was very annoying.

"Just before the first round of test jumps, all of them jumped so fast. Why did you need to prepare for the second round of test jumps for so long? This is the third test jump, so count down when it is my turn, The 400m race is about to start again!"

Zhang Guan's face was full of depression, and the camera captured Zhang Guan's expression at this time.

"It looks like Zhang Guan is waiting anxiously! Walid is the third player to make a trial jump. He must have seen seven other players try to jump before Zhang Guan. Oh! Men's 400-meter sprint event! It seems to be prepared! It seems that Zhang Guan is unable to participate in the second test jump. It is a pity, I am afraid that we cannot see Zhang Guan's wonderful performance in the long jump event!"

At this time, Zhang Guan also saw players of 400 meters appear on the starting line.

Walid completed his second test jump and improved his score to 8.03 meters.

"How did the time pass so fast! The 400-meter race is about to start, and it seems that my second jump must be given up too!" Zhang Guan silently glared at the Cuban player Iprasi who was preparing for the run zone. Iprasi, this guy not only did not prepare to take off but also talked to the referee.

"You should feel it. It's the top wind now. I want to wait for the wind to be lower before taking this test jump!" Iprasi said towards the referee.

The head referee discussed with the two assistant referees and agreed to the request of Iprasi Camejo.

Similar situations are very common in the long jump field. If the athletes feel that the wind is too strong, it will have a major impact on their take-off, so you can ask not to count down.

After a minute or so, the wind on the field was much lower, and the referee signals Iprasi Camejo to start his second test jump. However, Camejo did not get the good results he wanted, he jumped the line and fouled.

"Washing so much time deserves no results!" Zhang Guan silently drew a few circles. However, Zhang Guan also knows that according to the current situation, he really can't participate in the second test jump.

Therefore, Zhang Guan walked helplessly towards the 400-meter starting line. He gave up the test jump again.

"In the first three jumps, I must enter the first eight. I have given up the first two test jumps, and I have one last chance!" Zhang Guan silently clenched his fists, "For me, one chance is enough!"
