I’m an Olympic Superstar

v2 Chapter 99: Triathlon

Triath1on! That is, the triathlon is one of the sports events and belongs to the emerging comprehensive sports competition. Eighteen one Chinese W? W? W㈠. ? 8? 1? W ?. ? C? O? M

The competition consists of natural water swimming, road cycling, and road long-distance running. The athletes need a drum to complete the game.

Triathlon originated in the country of Rice.

In 1974, a group of sports officials gathered in a pub in the Charing Islands to argue: which sport in the world is the most exciting, challenging, and most test of human will and physical fitness?

Some say rugby, some say swimming across the sea, some say football, and some say long-distance bicycles, mountain marathons, etc. They all express their opinions and argue.

In the end, some people suggested: who can swim in the rough sea for 3.8 kilometers in a day, then cycle around the island for 18o kilometers, and finally finish the entire marathon of 42.195 kilometers, who must not stop halfway, who is the real iron man.

This idea was supported by everyone, so 15 people participated in the game the next day, including 1 female player.

that's it.

A new type of sports that challenges nature and defeats oneself is born under such a dramatic and adventurous situation.

After the competition, people took this one-on-one combination of swimming, cycling, and long-distance running, and provided athletes with challenges in terms of physical fitness, strength, and skills, called "triathlon."

And ratified the competition as the World Triathlon Championship. It is a meaningful sport.

After the triathlon was born in Xia Weiyi, it was initially only popular in Xia Weiyi and California, and then gradually spread in Australia, New West L, West Beny, France, Britain, Japan-Japan, China and other countries.

The most exciting and challenging sport in the world is the Triathlon!

Triathlon is a lifestyle-oriented sport that exudes vitality and charm. It is "fresh", "young", "vibrant", but also "hard", "harsh" and "exhausted" of".

The difficulty of this game is beyond everyone's imagination!

Let's put it this way, as the origin of this project, Xia Weiying has held triathlon competitions in recent years, knowing now! Still no Huaxia athlete is eligible to participate!

In other words, no domestic professional athletes can participate in the highest triathlon event.

Some people may be wondering why the Olympics are not the highest event for triathlons?

That's because the triathlon at the Olympics is not a true triathlon at all! He was cut more than three-quarters because of his distance!

And the rules have been reduced a lot. In the eyes of a real Iron Man, the triathlon games at the Olympic Games are just children's house play!

Of course, this time the triathlon of Haiwei also came in accordance with the Olympic rules.

The distance this time is not the standard distance of the Xia Weiying Triathlon Championship: swimming 3.8 kilometers, cycling 18o kilometers, marathon 42.195 kilometers.

It is the Olympic standard distance (51.5 kilometers): swimming 1.5 kilometers, cycling 4o kilometers, and long-distance running 1o kilometers.

After all, the people who can complete the "big iron" may not yet be in China!

Triathlon, as the name suggests, has three events. Swimming is the first event, and athletes start diving at the same time. They will follow a triangular path marked by buoys and ropes, and they will be punished if they take a short approach.

Athletes can swim in any position they like, but virtually all athletes choose freestyle.

Immediately after landing from the water, the athlete should switch to the cycling schedule.

In cycling, the entire race must be completed by bicycle. But if there is a problem with the tire, the athlete can take the car to the tire changing station to change the tire.

Generally, athletes have to change their own tires, but the Olympics have trained personnel to complete the job. They are assigned to serve at six tire changing stations along the track.

Common follow-ups in other events are not allowed in the real triathlon! Until 1995, the Olympics banned cyclists from using the airflow of the previous players because it was considered unfair to the previous players.

The rider must envisage a rectangle measuring 1 meter long and 3 meters wide as the air flow area.

They can't let their airflow zone overlap with other athletes unless they want a car.

However, law enforcement agencies have great difficulties in implementing this rule, so they abolished it in 1995, allowing riders to freely borrow each other's wind.

But in reality, there is an unwritten rule among the riders that restricts everyone from borrowing the wind. Anyone who breaks the rule will soon lose the respect of others.

Of course, in Xia Weiying's triathlon, which is the highest event of the triathlon, it is still not allowed to follow!

The most important rule of the triathlon long distance race is that the athlete must complete the entire race with his own feet.

This one sounds like nonsense!

However, in some unforgettable triathlon competitions, especially the hardest Xia Weiying triathlon competition, one time the national player Julie Moss crossed the finish line.

Since then, this situation has never happened again!

Because, the person who finishes the game like that cannot be called an iron man!

From the rules, we can see how difficult the triathlon competition is!

Called the "Crown of Extreme Sports," this event is now being sought after by more and more elites, and even civilian events are gradually increasing.

Xiao Ran was able to complete the marathon before, but this does not mean that Xiao Ran can complete the triathlon ~ lightnovelpub.net ~ Xiao Ran has not received professional swimming competitions or professional bicycle training!

These two are totally not track and field events!

Bicycles may be better. Although bicycles do not belong to track and field events, the attributes of track and field can give a certain blessing, but swimming is different.

Not only relying on the strength of the legs and waist, but also the strength of the arms, and more importantly, if you have no skills, you can't swim at all!

This is why Xiao Ran told Mo Yuning that when he was going to participate in the triathlon, Mo Yuning looked down on him.

This is not contempt, but Xiao Ran at this time really can't! Without technical training, brute force is not feasible!

What's more, there are various rules for triathlon competitions, as well as various other tricks, such as dress up! Those who are really trained can finish changing from swimming to cycling in 30 seconds, but those who are not trained are estimated to take three minutes ...

The most important thing is that Xiao Ran took a look in the system just now, there is no triathlon sport at all!
