Chapter 2399: Swimmer

The passionate Samba dancers are hard to resist.

It’s said that next to the restaurant, there’s dining on one side, and exercising on the other.

After eating, Huang Kaiwen took Neo’s car to Cobham.

Giovanni Nanni, along with Chelsea’s medical team, conducted a comprehensive check-up on Huang Kaiwen.

Huang Kaiwen left the treadmill, and the team doctor immediately took the electrodes off his body.

Giovanni Nanni looked at the report and said, "Still very surprising, your condition is extraordinarily good."

"Really? Maybe it’s because I maintain well."

Huang Kaiwen said with a smile.

"No, no, no."

Giovanni Nanni said earnestly, "I’ve compared you with the Chelsea players who have been training for a while. Their physical condition doesn’t match yours, and none of them have a better state than yours."

"Then I have no idea."

Huang Kaiwen said.

As long as the body is fine, it’s okay.

After returning home that night, Huang Kaiwen maintained his condition well.

Tomorrow is the match day.

After sleeping for more than seven hours, Huang Kaiwen woke up at 5 am.

Although he wasn’t very hungry, he still ate some food.

The main thing was to drink coffee, as caffeine helps improve endurance.

By around 6 am, he drank some sports drinks, as recommended by the medical team, because sugar helps stabilize blood sugar.

At 8 am, he ate some noodles and fish.

Carbohydrates are beneficial for long-duration exercise.

Then the whole family set out for Hyde Park.

Hyde Park is London’s most famous park, originally owned by Westminster Abbey. Henry VIII took the land from the church to create a hunting ground.

It underwent significant renovations in the 18th century, forming the prototype of Hyde Park.

By the 19th century, it shifted from an aristocratic fighting ground to a major venue for free speech and demonstrations.

Interestingly, Henry VIII’s main activity then was deer hunting, similar to our Qing Dynasty’s Emperor.

This park, covering more than 360 acres, hosts a considerable number of events annually.

Various concerts and festive celebrations.

There are often speeches and political opinions expressed at the park’s speaking forums.

The men’s triathlon is scheduled to start at 11:30 am London time.

But with over two hours to go before the competition, the enthusiastic spectators are already waiting at various segment positions.

Either with the whole family having a picnic or couples embracing each other and sharing sweet nothings.

Watching the match and enjoying leisure activities go hand in hand.

The national television station previously did a special travel program introducing the venue.

To give the audience a general idea about the competition venue, Hyde Park.

When Huang Kaiwen arrived at Hyde Park, the mechanics were conducting the final maintenance and inspection of the bicycles. A cycling event over 40 kilometers requires the bicycles to be in optimal condition.

The enthusiastic audience had already noticed Huang Kaiwen’s arrival, causing the atmosphere in Hyde Park to become lively.

Inzaghi and his Royal Magicians troupe coordinated their attire, standing out distinctly among the audience.

Everyone wore red T-shirts with "Kevin, Kevin, World’s Number One" printed in Chinese, and Huang Kaiwen even considered pretending not to know Inzaghi.

This guy came to cheer for Huang Kaiwen while not forgetting to chat up other spectators.

Huang Kaiwen worried that the T-shirts bearing his name would help fanning flames.

Meanwhile, athletes from around the world were making final preparations.

Checking gear, replenishing energy, and simple warm-up exercises.

Coaches were also making final explanations, sharing some tips and details.

On saving time during transitions.

Huang Kaiwen looked at his full 100 points of anticipation value and chose to draw a prize.

[Ding, obtained 2009-2010 season, Europe Champions League, Liverpool VS Debrecen, Dirk Kuyt experience card, obtained Lance Armstrong (endurance amazing)]

Trait: Endurance Amazing (Armstrong) - Armstrong’s heart is larger than others, with a heartbeat of 35 times per minute, extending the oxygen supply time to his body, his thighs longer than others’, saving more energy during cycling. His endurance is equally astonishing, possessing this trait, significantly reducing consumption during cycling, thereby enhancing overall endurance.

Huang Kaiwen almost gave a thumbs up.

That’s the logic.

Reducing consumption and boosting endurance achieve similar effects.

Interestingly, this seven-time Tour de France champion Armstrong once practiced triathlon in his childhood.

The cycling segment demands high physical fitness requirements, with many cyclists having participated in triathlons.

Almost time.

The national television station opened with a bird’s-eye view shot.

Zhang chuckled and said, "We are about to broadcast the finals of the men’s triathlon of the 2012 London Olympics. This time the London event is slightly different. The 1.5 km swim and 10 km marathon remain unchanged, but the cycling mileage in the London Olympics has changed from 40 km to 43 km."

"Yes, the origin of this sport is quite interesting. It dates back to the 1970s when a group of sports officials discussed what event is the most exciting, challenging, and best tests human willpower and physical fitness issues. The former United States Navy admiral, near death, proposed completing 3.8 km ocean swim, 180 km island cycling ride, and ideally running 42.195 km full marathon in one day to become a real super athlete."

"Indeed, since triathlon joined the Olympics in 1994, it has been recognized by many viewers and athletes, considering the sport sufficiently challenging to test athletes’ comprehensive skills and willpower."

"We don’t quite know Huang Kaiwen’s limits, but today’s total mileage of 54.5 kilometers presents a challenge for anyone. Spanish star Javier Gomez excels in uphill cycling, along with the UK’s Brownlee brothers and Germany’s Jan Frodeno, the Olympic champion from four years ago, and also from the German team, Patrick Lange, who is a very strong contender. It’s safe to say that the participants in this sport are top-tier athletes."
