Forty kilometers was almost the distance of a marathon. (Marathons are kilometers.)
It wouldn't be strange for an athlete to finish a marathon, but Normans was still 180 kilograms.
Running a marathon with such a body wasn't just a test of stamina. It was also a test of endurance and willpower.
When Normans reached the stadium, her coat was already wet.
"Drink some water." Chen Zhao gave her a bottle of water.
Normans drank it all in one gulp. She walked around to relieve the soreness in her muscles as she looked at Chen Zhao.
"* sshole, aren't you tired at all?"
"I am."
"But you look like you're doing it well."
"It's okay, not really. Can't you see how much sweat I'm sweating?" Chen Zhao replied.
Normans placed her palm on Chen Zhao's chest. "Your heartbeat is normal. Are you a monster?"
"Chen." He could already see Bord waving from afar.
Chen Zhao walked up and hugged him. Bord touched his chest. "Chen, why are you covered in sweat?"
"My friend and I just finished a marathon," Chen Zhao said. "Let me introduce you. This is Normans. I'm her slimming coach now. This is Bord, a professional fitness and fitness coach."
"Hi …" Bord shook hands with Normans.
"Chen, are you a coach now?"
"No," Chen Zhao said. "She's just one of my clients."
Normans pursed her lips. "Who's more professional?"
She was purposely trying to provoke them. Chen Zhao and Bord glanced at each other and smiled at the same time.
They wouldn't be provoked by Normans. Bord's job was introduced to him by Chen Zhao.
Now that he was Rufford's coach, his income was quite high.
He couldn't thank Chen Zhao enough. How could he hold a grudge against Chen Zhao?
"Okay, it's almost time to enter."
"Bord, what's the race today?"
"It's the National Elite Race. If Rufford can do well, he might get a spot in next year's Diamond League."
"Rufford? I know Rufford. I've seen his races, "Normans said at once." Your friend is Rufford? "
"Yes."
"Chen even became Rutherford's personal doctor. A month ago, Rutherford was at the lowest point of his life. Luckily, he met Chen."
After Bord brought Chen Zhao and Normans into the stands, he went to the backfield.
When Rutherford appeared, he even looked in Chen Zhao's direction and waved.
Chen Zhao nodded slightly. Normans glanced at him. "Are you close?"
"He's not bad. I've helped him, but I've invested in him as well."
"So does his current results have anything to do with you?"
"A little."
"You didn't give him some kind of stimulant, did you?"
"Come on, technology is so advanced now. Do you think an illegal doctor like me can concoct a stimulant that can avoid urine and blood tests? You're overestimating me. I don't even have a place to get some conventional medicine, let alone any stimulants. "
Rufford was the most popular athlete in this race. Not long ago, Rufford had been on the rise, producing excellent results in succession.
He was like a supernova in the field of track and field sprinting. In just a few short races, Rufford had produced outstanding results one after another.
He was now one of the top ten athletes in America, but he was the best 100m sprinter in America this year. His international ranking was in the fifties.
In fact, with Rufford's results in the last five races, he could definitely enter the top ten, or even the top three.
However, an athlete's condition would fluctuate. Just because he did well in the last few races didn't mean that he was better than other athletes whose results weren't as good as his.
That was why there was a point system. It was calculated by year. Rufford had come back in December. Before that, he was either injured or had average results, so his ranking was very low.
It was just the beginning of the year. Last year's points still determined this year's ranking.
The IAAF usually refreshed the rankings every three months, so Rufford's points couldn't be too high.
Recently, Rufford had been participating in races like crazy.
In twenty days, he'd participated in seven or eight races.
He wanted to increase his ranking and get a spot in the IAAF Diamond League.
The athletes went onto the track. Rufford was also ready.
The crowd quieted down. With a gunshot, all the athletes turned into a rainbow and charged toward the finish line.
Rufford was far ahead and crossed the finish line first.
Instantly, the crowd was in an uproar.
Everyone stood up and cheered. A number was displayed on the screen.
Wind speed, 1.1 m/s downwind.
The result was valid!
Rufford had broken the domestic record. He was now the best 100m sprinter in America.
Rufford!
Rufford!
Rufford!
The crowd cheered Rufford's name.
It wasn't a world record, but 9.60 seconds was enough to make everyone excited.
As for the host, he used a loud voice to reintroduce Ford.
…
After enjoying the cheers and applause, Rufford returned to the resting room. The first thing he did was hug Chen Zhao and Bord.
"Chen, did you see? Did you see? I ran 9.60 seconds!" Rufford still couldn't suppress his excitement.
"Rufford, I hope I'll be there when you try to break the world record next time."
"Can I?"
"Yes. Trust me, you can."
"I will. I definitely will." Rufford clenched his fists.
"Oh, did you sign the contract with CAA?"
"We're already discussing the final details. Since you introduced me, of course I'm fine with it."
As an athlete, Rufford definitely didn't have the energy to deal with commercial activities or endorsements.
Therefore, he had to have a manager and agency. The manager and agency would be in charge of these activities.
Chen Zhao introduced Normans to Rufford. The two had a simple conversation.
Normans was fat, but she was very interested in sports.
After leaving the stadium, Chen Zhao glanced at Normans. "Do you want to run back?"
"Sure." Normans agreed very quickly this time.
When they got home, it was already past nine at night.
Fali knew that Chen Zhao had been helping a woman lose weight recently. Seeing Chen Zhao return wet, her heart ached.
"Chen, why are you so late today?"
"You ran two marathons."
"You must be tired."
"Nope."
"Let go … Go wash first before touching me."
"Let's wash together."
