Chapter 229: 110-Meter Hurdles Final

"On your marks, get set."

After the starter's command echoed through the broadcast, in the span of a single breath, the gunshot from the starting pistol resounded throughout the Khalifa International Stadium in Doha.

The race had begun!

From the moment the race started, the spectators in Khalifa International Stadium erupted into cheers, igniting the atmosphere instantly.

In the blink of an eye, the nine figures on the track shot out like arrows. If one had not been completely focused on the race, they might have felt that in the mere act of turning their heads, the athletes had transitioned from their crouched starting positions to preparing to attack the first hurdle.

Fast!

This was the initial reaction of everyone to the speed of the athletes on the track.

"Good, Cui Luoheng had a good start today!"

With the athletes' reaction times displayed, Li Sen quickly noticed that Cui Luoheng's reaction time today was 0.149 seconds. While not the fastest reaction time he had ever achieved, it was a significant improvement compared to his 0.179 seconds in the semifinals!

Very good, Cui Luoheng's starting position looks good!

This was the first reaction of most viewers, including Li Sen. However, this was just the start. Comparing it to the semifinals, Lu Mengfan had a great start to the first hurdle in the semis, but the final result was less than stellar. In competitive sports, until the final moment, no one knows if there will be any unexpected changes in the process.

Hold steady!

It must be steady!

Maintain this state!

People clenched their fists nervously, watching the unpredictable developments on the track, waiting for the next second's change on the field.

In this final, McCleod from Jamaica, running in lane three, had the fastest reaction time at the start. He took only 0.122 seconds to react, displaying explosive power. From the moment the gun sounded, his leg muscles exploded with force, allowing him to quickly reach the front position within the first three steps of the start.

During the starting phase, McCleod temporarily took the lead!

Not only in the starting and acceleration phases but also until he reached the first hurdle, McCleod held the advantage in the front. Following closely behind were Fabregas and Cui Luoheng.

Russian star Vladimir, known as the Emperor of the 110m hurdles, did not seem to have a particularly smooth start in today's race. His reaction time of 0.155 seconds was average, not an outstanding performance for him.

However, Vladimir's slightly 'soft' start didn't seem to have a significant impact on him. Looking at Vladimir's personal data, his most advantageous stage is from the fifth hurdle to the seventh hurdle. During this phase, his maximum split speed reaches its peak.

Some have said that Vladimir from the fifth to the seventh hurdle is "invincible."

On the track, Cui Luoheng didn't overthink it. Compared to the semifinals, where he wasn't quite familiar with the state of completely letting go of his senses, he had adapted to this state before the final. On the track, he could feel every subtle change in his every step and movement.

Since the adjustment to the eight-to-seven technique during winter training, he felt that he had become very proficient with the new technique. However, both he and Su Bai had analyzed an issue. Due to the shift in his center of gravity after the technique change, his center of gravity moved forward, which had its benefits, making him more proactive overall. However, it also meant that the angle between his body and the hurdles would be smaller, making it easier for him to hit the hurdles during the clearance process.
