On August 11th, the track and field competition of the London Olympics was also coming to an end. After today’s game, the main venue of the London Olympics will be closed to prepare for the closing ceremony on the last day.

Today's track and field arena will produce eight gold medals. The men's long-distance race of 5,000 meters is regarded as today's highlight.

In the four years of the 2008 Olympic Games, the number of people participating in the 5,000 meters was still relatively large. At that time, a preliminary game was held. In the London Olympics, there were only 16 athletes participating in the 5,000 meters, which is much less than the last Olympics.

In terms of difficulty in winning the championship, 5000 meters is also greater than 10,000 meters. This is not because 5000 meters is more difficult than 10,000 meters, but because the competition of 5000 meters is more intense.

5000 meters is a long-distance running, so long-distance runners will definitely participate in the 5000-meter race; in addition, some marathon runners will occasionally participate in the 5000-meter race; there are also 3000-meter obstacle runners who run The physical consumption of the 3000m obstacle race is actually similar to that of 5000m, and will also participate in the 5000m competition. At that time, the king of the 3000m obstacle race, Sahin, also won the gold medal of the 5,000m World Championships; The rice player will also run a 5,000-meter race.

Ethiopian star Beckler used to be the world record holder of 5000 meters. After his return from the Olympics this time, he is still world-class in the 10,000-meter project and can still represent Ethiopia in the Olympics. He has no place for him, which also shows from the side how fierce the competition of the 5000-meter race is.

In the player preparation area, British player Farah looks very active.

As the new "Long Running King", Farah was considered to be the biggest favorite to win the championship before the game. However, since Zhang Guan broke the men's 10,000-meter world record, Zhang Guan's odds of winning the championship have been comparable to Farah.

In fact, Farah's 5,000-meter level is much stronger than his 10,000-meter level, and 5000 meters is Farah's real strength.

Farah first practiced football, but later changed to practice running 3000 meters. This is an indoor event, not an Olympic event. 3000 meters and 5000 meters have many similarities, but compared with 10000 meters, the difference is relatively large. Therefore, compared with 10,000 meters, Farah is better at running 5000 meters. As early as 2006, Farah won the European Championship.

At this time, Farah was not intimidated by Zhang Guan's 10,000-meter world record. His heart even looked forward to defeating Zhang Guan in the 5,000-meter field.

"The whole world knows that Zhang Guan is deliberately sniping the British team. Wiggins, the Brownlee brothers, and even Sir Hoy have lost to Zhang Guan. If the next 5000 meters final, I can win With Zhang Guan, I will become a hero of the British Empire! It may even be awarded by Her Majesty the Queen! 5000 meters is my strongest item, and I will definitely win."

The title "Heroes of the British Empire" is far too tempting for Farah.

Although Farah is already the world's top athlete, in fact, in the UK, many people have not really regarded Farah as the last British and did not accept him from the heart.

Farah was born in Somalia and later entered the UK as a refugee. No country in the world can accept the refugees without reservation, and it is impossible for ordinary people to regard the refugees as their own. This has been confirmed countless times in history, not to mention that the United Kingdom is still a relatively exclusive country in Europe. In the future, refugees in the Middle East, Germany, France, Spain, Italy, and even Belgium, have accepted refugees. Only the United Kingdom, a refugee does not want it, and even made out of Brexit.

The British are xenophobic, and the traditional British are xenophobic. Somalia was once a British colony. Refugees from such a colony of Farah, even if they acquired British citizenship, are only second-class citizens in the eyes of the traditional British. Discrimination is inevitable. Therefore, if Farah wants to be a real British, if he wants to be recognized by ordinary British people, he must make enough contributions to the UK, and he must earn enough honors for the UK.

Today, the temptation of a "British Empire hero" and an opportunity for Farah to realize his dream are enough for Farah to work hard for it!

...

Not far away, Zhang Guan's expression seemed dignified.

"It's not easy to win this game today!" Zhang Guan sighed silently in his heart.

5000 meters was originally a strong man like a cloud, and after Zhang Guan joined, it formed a "catfish effect".

One feature of long-distance running is that everyone must be fast and everyone must be slow. Therefore, in some competitions, the organizers often invite some "rabbit" players to lead the race in order to make the athletes faster.

Of course, there is no rabbit player in the Olympic level competition, and no athlete will lead the rhythm of the belt in the front, but since Zhang Guan broke the world record of 10,000 meters, the situation is different. Originally everyone was an athlete of the same level, and suddenly a person who could break the world record popped up. It was like a catfish coming out of the sardine school. The other athletes will definitely increase their rhythm subconsciously. This may be more effective than finding a "rabbit" player.

Zhang Guan looked around, and Farah's eager look came into his eyes.

"Falah looks very excited!" Zhang Guan sighed lightly, and then noticed the Ethiopian Army.

Ethiopia, the longest running power, sent three players this time, the strongest of which was named Gebre Meskel, who once ran a good result of 12 minutes and 53 seconds, which has surpassed the Olympics maintained by Beckler Record. It can be said that Gebre Meskel also has the strength to win the championship.

On the other side, the United States Army sent three players together. The top card in the United States team is veteran Lagart. He is a Kenyan naturalized player and was born in the middle and long-distance family. In addition to 5000 meters, Lagat also runs 1500 meters. It is worth mentioning that Lagat's wife is a Canadian Chinese, and his coach is also a Chinese, so Lagat can speak a few simple Chinese.

Ramz, Gebre Meskel and Lagat, plus a championship, are the four players most likely to win the 5000m.

...

A shot from the starter started the game.

As expected by Zhang Guan before the game, although there are no rabbit players, the athletes move faster. Americans, Ethiopians, Kenyans, and British Farah did not choose conservative tactics, but chose a more aggressive running method.

"Yes, I'm afraid you can't run fast!" Zhang Guan used follow-up running and was mixed in the middle of the team.

Zhang Guan wanted to break another world record. Prior to this, Zhang Guan worried that other players would not run fast, which would affect his performance. But now it seems that all speeds are very good. Run at this speed. It is very promising to break the world record.

In the first two laps, everyone is in the same group, and there is no big gap between them. After all, the players who dare to participate in the Olympics will not be too weak. Even in the first two laps, even if the speed is relatively fast, no one will be left behind.

The world record of this project is 12 minutes and 37 seconds maintained by Beckler, so after two and a half minutes, Zhang Guan did not continue to use the follow-up run, but switched to a fixed-speed run.

At the moment when Zhang Guan turned to constant speed running, the speed difference he and other players saw was clearly reflected.

Zhang Guan set a speed that can break the world record. If other players can have this speed, then they have already broken the world record.

I saw Zhang Guan stood out from the team and quickly rushed to the front.

"Does Zhang Guan lead the way? Are we following or not?"

"The speed is fast enough now. If we keep up, will we not be able to hold on in the second half?"

"Zhang Guan's current speed is too much for physical exertion and cannot be followed!"

The other fifteen players had different thoughts and made different choices. Some people chose to accelerate to follow Zhang Guan, while others did not choose to keep up, but continued to maintain their original rhythm.

At 2000 meters, Zhang Guan was in the lead, followed by three Ethiopian players, three American players and British player Farah. The two Konya players did not choose to run, but ran at their own pace.

After 3000 meters, Ethiopian players Watt and Omeri, and American player Romon, have fallen behind, and they cannot keep up with Zhang Guan's lead rhythm.

At 3500 meters, the speed of another American player Rupp gradually slowed down. At this time only Britain's Farah, Ethiopia's Gebre Meskel and American Lagat can also keep up with the pace of crowning.

After 4000 meters, Lagat was also thrown away, leaving only two people behind Zhang Guan.

...

"Zhang Guan can still maintain such a fast speed! Isn't he tired?" Gebremeskell's expression was fierce, and he could not bear it anymore.

Gebremeskell glanced at Farah beside him, he gritted his teeth and tried to keep his pace.

"Falah can keep up, and I must be able to keep up! I will not lose to Farah!"

But in the next second, Gebremeskell's legs began to be indifferent.

Gebremeskell is still insisting, but his conviction can no longer overcome physical fatigue.

"You can't keep up, you have to lose!" Gebremeskell was content.

Ethiopia used to be the number one power in long-distance running, and it was common to take the top three.

Now, as the No. 1 player in Ethiopia, he has already lost in the running phase, and he still lost to two people.

However, this is competitive sports, which has nothing to do with nationality, only the strength.

The previous honors and glory can only represent the past, any abnormal game is a new beginning, and the winner is the king!

The next second, Gebre Meskel was thrown away by the leading two...
