Back at the dormitory of Qingren Sports School, Yi Dun was about to change his clothes and go out for training, but someone pushed the door and entered the dormitory.

Yi Dun guessed that it should be a student of Qingren Sports School who originally lived in this dormitory. After all, this double room dormitory is not a single room, so it is normal for someone to live in it.

What Yi Dun didn't expect was that his temporary roommate was a bit amazing and looked a little taller than him.

When the other party saw Yi Dun, he was also stunned. He heard from the teacher in the department that someone would come to this dormitory to stay for a few days, but he didn't expect to be so big.

"Hello, my name is Fan Zhiyi, I'm very happy to know you."

"My name is Yi Dun, Xunhui."

When he heard Yi Dun's name, the other party was stunned for a moment.

"One ton?"

"Yi of Zhou Yi, urging Dun, Yi Dun." Yi Dun explained with a smile.

Judging from Fan Zhiyi's clothes, he should have a good family background and looks very confident.

After the two sat down, Fan Zhiyi said, "Brother, you are also a basketball expert, right?"

Yi Dun shook his head and told Fan Zhiyi about his purpose of coming to Qinglian City this time.

Fan Zhiyi's face was strange because judging from Yi Dun's appearance, he was really incompatible with the marathon.

...

Both of them were young and soon became familiar with each other. Fan Zhiyi took Yi Dun to the cafeteria for supper, and then took Yi Dun to the playground.

There are not a few days left before the start of the marathon, and Yi Dun did not dare to have too much training volume to prevent training strains.

I only practiced for more than half an hour at night to maintain my competitive state.

...

Before we knew it, a few days passed, and it was the day of the Qinglian International Marathon.

The departure time was eight o'clock in the morning. Yi Dun got up early and applied Vaseline to some parts that were prone to friction and injuries in the dormitory, and then set out early to rush to the competition site.

It is already mid-November and the weather has turned cold.

However, for marathons, 5 to 15 degrees is the most suitable race temperature, and the temperature is just right now.

At around 7:30, the queue before the start of the run had already begun.

When I registered before, the unit that Yi Dun filled in was Songyang Sports School, which was directly classified as a professional player by the staff. Therefore, when he was queuing up, he and other professional players were arranged at the forefront.

There are not many professional players, about twenty, but everyone looks extremely professional.

Behind the professional team are the full-horse amateur team, half-horse amateur team and happy running.

Standing in the middle of the crowd and looking around, Yi Dun really discovered many foreigners.

If you really want to find a city in Dongshan Province that can be called an international city, it is undoubtedly only Qinglian, so it is normal for some foreigners to participate in the competition.

Yi Dun looked at the blacks who were in the same professional team as him, and guessed in his heart whether these blacks would be professional marathon bounty hunters from Kenya or Ethiopia.

These two East African countries are relatively poor and have no resources to export in China. Winning bonuses in marathons has become one of the important means for these two countries to earn foreign exchange...

It's a bit similar to when the Philippines is poor, exporting Filipino maids to earn foreign exchange.

...

"Are you Yi Dun?" Someone squeezed out the crowd not far away and walked towards Yi Dun.

Yi Dun looked at the person coming and found that he had no impression of this person in his mind.

"Who are you?" The visitor walked up to him and asked in confusion before.

"I am from the provincial middle and long-distance running team. It is normal for you to not know me. In the previous championships, I was watching the game on the sidelines, but you left a deep impression on me."

"By the way, let me introduce myself. My name is Yu Huatian, and I am currently the captain of the middle and long-distance running team."

Yi Dun was stunned. Yu Huatian was actually an athlete from the provincial team?

Can athletes in the system also participate in this kind of competition?

So what if you get the bonus, how should you allocate the bonus? Should you stay by yourself or have to hand it over?

Just as Yi Dun was confused, three more people came over and greeted Yi Dun with a smile. After some talk, they were all members of the middle and long-distance running team.

Yi Dun left a deep impression on them in the previous college championships. When they learned that the province was preparing to recruit Yi Dun to join the team, these people first came to say hello to Yi Dun, his future teammate.

"By the way, Yi Dun, have your enlistment procedures been completed?" Yu Huatian asked curiously.

He had heard that Yi Dun would join the team within a week, but now a week has passed. He didn't see Yi Dun at the track and field center, but he met Yi Dun at the marathon in Qinglian City.

Yi Dun shook his head awkwardly, feeling a little embarrassed to talk to these people. It was impossible for him to tell them that he was not going to join the provincial team...

Maybe people will misunderstand Yi Dun looks down on the provincial team.

Seeing Yi Dun stammeringly, Yu Huatian didn't continue asking questions, thinking that something was wrong with Yi Dun's joining procedures.

...

The few people chatted for a while, and the departure time at 8 o'clock was getting closer.

At this moment, the contestants took off their long-sleeved gowns and threw them on both sides of the track.

Yi Dun followed suit, and then quietly waited for the starting gun to fire.

"Bang..." With a gunshot, the crowd began to surge.

The extremely high prize money attracted nearly 2,000 people from Qinglian City to participate, and a large group of people started today's international marathon.

Of course, most of the contestants just joined in the fun.

In fact, the marathon with a scale of 2,000 people is relatively small, and the number of people on some large-scale marathons can reach tens of thousands.

About 150 of these two thousand people ran the full marathon, about 200 people ran the half marathon, and as for the remaining more than 1,000 people were happy runners.

What is happy running? That is, ten kilometers of running, which is equivalent to a 10,000-meter long-distance running.

...

There are more than 20 people in the entire horse team, and it doesn't sound like there are many people, but after running, Yi Dun only feels that there are people around him. Even if Yi Dun is tall and big, it is difficult for him to break out of the crowd now.

At present, we can only find opportunities to slowly find opportunities to lead.

After running for about twenty minutes, the entire professional team had already experienced "class differentiation".

Several echelons have been clearly formed.

Yi Dun is naturally in the first echelon now, with about ten people around him, and it is expected that it is not bad.

Looking around, there were only three blacks in the first tier and no other foreigners were seen.

Yi Dunmingran, it seems that these three people are the rumored East African professional marathon bounty hunters.

In addition to these three East African players and Yi Dun, the senior officials' running teams are also ranked first.

After all, he is a provincial team player and his strength is definitely quite good.

The remaining first-tier members, depending on their professionalism, are either members of the provincial team from other provinces or top bounty hunters in China.

The competition is more intense than Yidun had previously imagined.

...

Time passed minute by minute, and the first echelon was already ahead of the second echelon by a distance.

At this moment, some members of the first-tier team with weaker strength gradually could not keep up with the pace of the leader and began to fall behind.

By the time the schedule was halfway through, Yi Dun's face looked a little ugly.

He can't hold on any longer...

It’s not because I’m not physically exhausted, but because I can’t keep up with the rhythm of the three East African players in front.

If you continue to follow, you may insist on not falling behind for another five kilometers, but if you do this, you may face the situation of being unable to sprint in the end.
Chapter completed!
