[Ancient wears today] Ace jockey

Chapter 9 Training for Long Distance Running

Lu Haitan was still whispering the words in his ear, but the man let out a "chi" laugh and strode forward.

Shen Xi frowned, not knowing what the other party meant, if Lu Haitan wanted to compete with him, that person should have a good discussion with him about the competition, but the boy in front of him just whispered these words in his ear, Laughed and left.

The meaning of that smile seemed to be provocative.

Why did this person suddenly say such a word?Why would you want to compete with him?

It's not because he has ridden a Dada Eagle, this Lu Haitan will pull him to compete.

Shen Xi thought about it for a long time and couldn't understand it.

He doesn't care whether his riding skills are good or bad, he just feels that after he gets on the horse, his whole person is different. In the whole world, he only sees a horse path in front of him, and the horse under him is with him—— Just like he used to drive for the young master.

Shen Xi didn't care about winning or losing, and naturally he couldn't figure out what Lu Haitan was thinking. He went round and round in his head, and in the end it became more and more chaotic. He simply didn't think about anything, just followed the people in the team, and arrived at Feilu The canteen of the training school.

训练学校专门为见习骑师学员提供膳食。但是膳食的时间有严格的规定。早上6:00到6:30是早膳时间，中午11:00到12:00是午膳时间，下午17:00到18:00是晚膳时间，到点的时候，学员必须到食堂进食，但是如果超出了就餐时间，食堂一律不提供食物。

While explaining, the coach told the apprentice jockeys and students the dining order.

This time there are only six trainee jockeys in total, and they are the ones who have passed the examinations among the [-] trainee jockeys who applied for the Chifeng Racecourse. Shen Xi passed the assessment of the chief judge of the Chifeng Racecourse and entered Feilu training. In the school, besides him, there are Lu Haitan, who has been known as the new generation dark horse in the horse world, Wang Jin with a loud voice, Hu Qi, Ding Xiaoliang, and Mao Dou who are thin.

These six people were all arranged in the same dormitory, and Shen Xi was already familiar with them, especially Lu Haitan and Wang Jin were the most impressive.

The coach urged the students to eat, pointed at Wang Jin, Lu Haitan, and Ding Xiaoliang, and said, "You three, don't order meat when ordering."

When he was talking, Shen Xi happened to order a piece of iron steak, the juice on it was still bubbling, and steaming steam came out from the plate, bringing out a smell of meat.

Shen Xi paused, not knowing what the coach meant, he looked at his steak, then at the loud voice and others.

He smelled the meat with a loud voice, and immediately muttered: "Coach, let's eat a piece today, okay!"

The coach laughed a few times and said, "What did I say when I entered school, and you all forgot it so quickly?"

The loud voice immediately withered the sound.

The coach said: "The jockey has strict requirements on the weight. When the time comes, you will be too fat and gain a few pounds of fat, and you will not be able to play and drag your legs. Don't blame me for not teaching you."

As soon as this was said, the loud voice obediently ordered a portion of green vegetables and a portion of radish, and found a seat to sit down.

The coach patted Shen Xi on the shoulder and said, "You also give me less of these things."

Shen Xi looked at the steak on the plate and swallowed.

He loves beef, including offal.The tripe in the offal is his favorite!But when he saw steak at school, he was so happy that he chose it without hesitation.

The steaks outside cost tens of dollars a meal, and the steaks here are completely free, which makes him a little excited at first.

But what the coach said means that he will start to strictly control his eating, and he will eat less steak, and even his favorite beef offal.

He thought of the hot pot old man Liu invited him to eat, and swallowed.

After lunch, the six of them gathered at the playground.The coach looked at the six people in a row and said: "To become a good jockey, you must go through hard training. I know that some of you have learned riding in other places very early, but when you arrive at Feilu Riding School , I will demand you more strictly."

"In the next training, you may feel very hard, but there is a good saying: 'Perseverance is victory'. I hope that after the training of Feilu School, I can see it on the podium after three years. To your figure."

He said these words in one go, which made many people present feel excited.

The coach said: "In the first year of the course, we have to do physical training every day, exercise basic horse riding skills, and handle stable work. The school will distribute a horse to each of you. During this year, You need to take care of your horses."

His eyes slowly swept across the crowd, and finally stayed in the middle of the team, saying: "In addition to studying horse racing-related courses, you also need to study knowledge courses such as English, computer, financial management, German, life education, etc. These are what jockeys must master. course."

Cheng Shao had already told Shen Xi about the jockey's need to learn English, and Shen Xi didn't even know a few Chinese characters of Dou Da, so he could only work hard in secret.

The coach said: "Today is the day you enter school, and it is also the day you start school. The training should start immediately. After two hours, start exercising."

Then he smiled and said, "Whoever completes the training content first can go to the stable to get his own horse."

As soon as he said this, the six people looked at each other in blank dismay, wondering what the coach meant.

According to what the coach said before, the training school should distribute horses to each student, so if you enter the stable, there should be a sense of "first come, first served".

It means that whoever completes the training content first will get the chance to choose their own horses.

A horse is extremely important to a jockey.A horse needs an excellent jockey to realize its potential. Similarly, an excellent jockey needs a horse of comparable level to complement it.

And this is also very attractive to the apprentice jockey students who have just entered school.

Not knowing what the training content was, several people became curious.

Two hours later, after the students finished their afternoon break, six apprentice jockeys regrouped on the green field.

The content of the training coach is both simple and difficult. This training is actually running ten laps around the green field.

The green field is a large circular playground. According to the main track of Chifeng Racecourse as a reference, the length of the circle is 1900 meters, and the total width of the green grass track is 30.5 meters.The scale of the venue is huge, spacious and open, and the coaches and students standing in the venue are like a drop in the ocean, insignificant.

Running ten laps around the green field, the actual distance is far greater than 10*1900 meters, at least ten kilometers, and this distance is already comparable to a quarter of a marathon.

And if you usually exercise at school, ordinary running only needs to run two laps around the 400-meter playground to achieve the effect of relaxing your body.

Half of the six teenagers present were students who had come out of ordinary schools. When they heard the battle, their expressions of shock were beyond words, and Shen Xi turned pale.

The quality of his body has always been poor, and the owner of this body died of taking drugs.When he just woke up, he only saw the body holding a bottle in his hand. Later, after he showed the bottle to old man Liu, he realized that it contained sleeping pills.

I heard from old man Liu that after taking sleeping pills, I have no strength and want to sleep, and if I take too much, I will die.He didn't know if it was because the sleeping pills were still in his body. His health wasn't very good. All he did on the construction site was physical work. Because he didn't have much strength, he naturally couldn't do without the eyes of the contractor.

Riding a horse is also a labor of love, but Shen Xi's skills on horseback are good, as soon as he gets on the horse, it's like returning home.Although there was a little thunder during the last cross-country run, it didn't seem to be a big problem.

But this ten-kilometer run is like King Yama, opening a door for him with a smile.

Inside the door, there are good horses, but there are also deadly jobs.

Even though I don't like running, the coach's words are ahead. When the time is up, the six people rush out in unison, like wild horses that have run wild, running desperately forward.

Long-distance running is a physical activity, but also a technical activity.Although Shen Xi hadn't run such a long distance, he had traveled even longer than this.

When the young master's family was in Suzhou, when he went to Beijing to catch the exam, he drove the young master from Suzhou to Chang'an overnight, and the distance was dozens of times longer than the ten kilometers.

When driving a long-distance horse, one must keep a steady pace and not let the horse get tired.An experienced groom can report a specific arrival time as soon as the guest asks where he wants to go.Because he rode his horse steadily and steadily, and his speed was always just right.

Shen Xi decided to apply his horse riding experience to the track.

When he started running, he was neither fast nor slow. Lu Haitan and Ding Xiaoliang in front rushed the fastest, throwing the four behind them a certain distance.Then followed closely by Mao Dou and the thin man, and then it was Shen Xi's turn.

Loud voice was the slowest runner, and he followed Shen Xi from the very beginning without falling behind.

Endurance running is the most grueling.It was the first time for Shen Xi to toss and turn like this in this world. After running for half a circle, his legs and feet were sore and swollen, so he slowly put down his steps.While running, the scenery in front of me swayed, and the heart in my chest also beat "plop plop plop".

Lu Haitan was a jockey and won a small championship. He also received endurance running training when he was in the equestrian club. He didn't like this kind of training. Instead, he and Ding Xiaoliang slowly tossed and tossed.

Ding Xiaoliang is a sports student. Although the event he runs is a short-distance race, he has not neglected the long-distance running training in his usual physical training.

Although Mao Dou and the thin man were not as fast as Lu Haitan and Ding Xiaoliang, they could barely keep up with them. However, after running a lap, Shen Xi felt as if something was clogged in his ears. Every time he took a step, he exhaled. Taking a breath, the sound is recalled in the ears, infinitely amplified.

His pace was getting slower and slower, and he was running against the wind, which was more difficult than the loud voice behind him.

He ran a few steps with a loud voice, watched Shen Xi fall further and further, and finally couldn't help passing Shen Xi at the end of the second lap.

He originally thought that Shen Xi was the boy who subdued Dada Ying, so he should have good physical fitness.Dada eagles are more violent than ordinary horses, and dealing with such fierce horses usually requires extraordinary physical strength from the rider.

But he didn't expect that Shen Xi's speed would be so slow. He originally wanted to run with Shen Xi, but because of Shen Xi's speed, he fell behind.

After leaving with a loud voice, Shen Xi immediately became the last one on the track, slowly walking on the green shade.

After Shen Xi completely finished the ten kilometers, his whole body was almost collapsed. He stood still for a long time before he slowly recovered his breath.

The coach came over to look at Shen Xi and said, "Let's go to the stable to get the horse."

Only then did Shen Xi slowly move towards the direction of the stable step by step. As soon as he reached the door of the stable, he heard someone whistle.

He frowned and looked up, and saw Lu Haitan leading a horse. The horse had round eyes, clear bones, and a long and straight neck. It was a rare horse.

And Lu Haitan was also looking at him, looking at the meaning in his eyes, he really had a sense of gloating.
