Focus on Su Bingtian going abroad for the Spring Festival
during the Spring Festival of 2018, Su Bingtian moved around the world to participate in the IAAF World Indoor Tour, which successively refreshed the men’s Asian record of 60 meters. It was also because of the excellent state of the indoor stadium at the beginning of the year that Su Bingtian ushered in a big outbreak in 2018, which not only tied the Asian record for 100 meters, but also won the championship in the Asian Games.
Compared with last Spring Festival, Su Bingtian had one more identity this year. In the middle of July, 2018, his son was born. Su Bingtian, who was promoted to his father, went out for training or participated in competitions, I have more care. Whenever seeing acquaintances, Su Bingtian always talks about his son casually.
According to the plan, Su Bingtian will end the winter training in the past two days, and his 2019 season will start with it. Before the end of the Spring Festival holiday, Su Bingtian would leave abroad, waiting for him for several consecutive indoor events.
For the first show in 2019, Su Bingtian chose a Indoor tournament held in aslon, Ireland on February 13. In order to adjust his status as soon as possible, he needed to prepare for the war abroad in advance. Then he will go to Birmingham and düswood without stopping to participate in the two-stop IAAF indoor tour.
In 2018, Su Bingtian’s 60 meters ran 6 seconds, 50 seconds, and 6 seconds 43 in Birmingham and Dusseldorf respectively, and then went to Fudi to participate in the competition. He naturally hoped to achieve good results, “look for the feeling in the first stop, the next two stations strive for good results.”
In addition, the organizing committee of the competition is also building momentum for Su Bingtian’s competition. A few days ago, the official website of IAAF released the news that Su Bingtian would appear at Birmingham station. The article said that Su Bingtian was the silver medal winner of the indoor track and field world championship, three excellent British sprinters will be played in the Birmingham station and defend their title of defending the championship.
Of course, in addition to the indoor events at the beginning of the year, Su Bingtian will still focus on outdoor competitions in 2019, which will maintain relatively high competition density and intensity in general. Su Bingtian had previously revealed, “in April, I will participate in the Asian Championship, followed by the world track and field relay in May. These two competitions plus the Doha World Championship, it was my three most important events in 2019.”
As the key team of race team in Lijiang New Year, the key teaching group within Chinas track and field team won a lot of world competitions such as Olympic Games and World Championships in China race team, it is also the key winning event of the Chinese team in the Doha world track and field championships.
During the winter training in race team, China was divided into foreign teachers group and internal education group. Foreign coaches led by Damilano included Wang Rui, Wang Qin, sister Che Yangshi, LV Xiuzhi and other famous generals, the internal education group led by domestic coach Zhang Fuxin is also luxurious, including Yang Jiayu, Wang Kaihua, Liang Rui and other backbone forces.
According to Zhang Fuxin, the head coach of the inner Education Group, in order to prepare for the Doha world championship, the winter training of the inner education group in China race team is divided into three stages: the first stage is in Qinhuangdao, lasting for one and a half months; the second stage is in Dujiangyan, Sichuan, and the training has ended on January 6. The current third stage is in Lijiang, Yunnan, and the training will last until the end of February. In order to ensure the quality of training, even during the Spring Festival, the team is hardly idle.
The previous world championships in track and field were held in August, and this year’s World Championships in Doha were postponed for nearly a month. In view of the changes in competition time, the coaching staff also paid attention to the training intensity during winter training, the content has been adjusted, Zhang Fuxin revealed, “it must be changed. This year’s training needs to control the rhythm and training volume.”
Yang Jiayu is the champion of the London World Championship in 2017 and the “first sister” of China’s race team at present. She defended her honor in the women’s 20km race at the Jakarta Asian Games. Wang Kaihua defeated Japanese players in the Jakarta Asian Games and won the men’s 20-kilometer race. He is a well-deserved leader in Chinese men’s race.

The above three players are the absolute main force of China’s race team, and they are also the key players for the team to win gold and silver in the Doha world track and field championships. According to Zhang Fuxin, the team’s goal in the world championship is to strive for three medals, “the key projects are Wang Kaihua’s men’s 20 kilometers, yang Jiayu’s woman is 20 kilometers and Liang Rui’s woman is 50 kilometers. As long as they play normally, they should all be able to enter the top three. We hope they can fight for at least one gold medal.”
Pay attention to the situation that the middle and long distance running teams are scattered abroad for training
similar to that in China race team. During winter training, the middle and long distance running training teams also divide the teams into foreign teachers and internal education groups, and there are marathon groups. Considering the large gap between some projects and foreign high-level players, Tian Guan center sent most of the team members to foreign countries for training, utilizing foreign high-quality resources, through training and competition with foreign high-level players, prepare for the World Championship more scientifically.
At present, many players, including Wang Chunyu, the women’s 800 m champion of Jakarta Asian Games, are training in the United States. In addition to daily training, the players will also participate in many indoor track and field events in the United States. Including dobger, the bronze winner of the men’s marathon at the Jakarta Asian Games, many marathon masters are currently training outside Ethiopia. The training lasted from December 27, 2018 to middle March this year.
Tian Xiaojun, deputy director of Tian management center, believes that similar overseas training is necessary, which is an essential way to improve the level of China’s middle and long distance running. Tian Xiaojun said, “we can improve our competitiveness by competing and training with foreign players. At present, Sprint is a better practice. We have trained and competed abroad all the year round, and our performance has improved significantly, this is also applicable to the middle and long distance running project. It is no accident that some middle and long-distance running teams went to East Africa this year to train with long-distance runners such as Ethiopia and Kenya, it will further improve the level of these athletes.”
Now It coincides with the Spring Festival in China. The members of the middle and long distance running training team far away from a foreign country have no chance to reunite with their families and are still focusing on training. Although the winter training is relatively long and the content is relatively boring, this is the daily life of athletes. In order to achieve better results in the 2019 season and realize their dreams, this is the only way to go.
