The world record in

track and field events symbolizes the limits of human beings. Every improvement is the result of the hard work of countless athletes. However, some talented athletes have greatly improved the world record results through their own efforts and achieved great leaps. Let's take a look at the 5 great leaps in track and field world records in the editor's mind.

Fifth place, Wang Junxia broke the women's 10,000-meter record in 41 seconds 96

Before the 1993 National Games, the women's 10,000-meter world record was held by the Norwegian star Kristiansen of 30 minutes, 13 seconds and 74 seconds. Wang Junxia's super performance completely shattered this record. In the end, he ran a good time of 29 minutes, 31 seconds and 78 seconds, improving the world record by 41 seconds and 96 seconds. This improvement is unprecedented in the history of women's 10,000 meters.

Fourth place, Kosge broke the women's marathon world record of 81 seconds

Before the 2019 Chicago Marathon, British star Radcliffe maintained the women's marathon world record of 2 hours, 15 minutes and 25 seconds. For a long time after that, the women's marathon The results of the world's top players are all between 2 hours and 19 minutes - 2 hours and 20 minutes, so Radcliffe's record was once considered an unbreakable record. But in the 2019 Chicago Marathon, Kenyan female athlete Kosge won the championship with an incredible time of 2 hours, 14 minutes and 04 seconds, improving Radcliffe's world record by 81 seconds, which is terrifying.

third place, Bolt broke the men's 100m world record by 0.11 seconds

In the history of the men's 100m, Lightning Bolt is undoubtedly a monumental figure. Hines ran a time of 9.95 seconds in the 1968 Olympics, becoming the first athlete to break the 10-second mark in the 100-meter time clock. Later, Kevin Smith, Carl Lewis, Burrell, Bailey, Green, It took 56 famous players in Powell

0 times in 24 years to improve the men's 100m world record by 0.21 seconds. After Bolt's rise in 2008, he improved the men's 100m world record in 9 seconds 72, 9 seconds 69 and 9 seconds 58 ( The original record of Powell (9.74 seconds) improved by 0.16 seconds, while the Berlin World Championships of 9.58 seconds improved the world record by 0.11 seconds. You must know that the faster the 100-meter result, the more difficult it will be to improve later. Bolt's greatness is self-evident.

second place, Johnson broke the men's 200-meter world record by 0.34 seconds

Johnson was the greatest 200-meter athlete in the 20th century. In the 1996 US Championships, Johnson broke the men's 200-meter world record in 19.66 seconds and 19.72 seconds later. At the Atlanta Olympics, he broke the world record again in 19.32 seconds, improving by 0.34 seconds at once. This is the largest increase in the world record in the history of sprinting. Because of this amazing performance, it can be said that it has changed the status of the men's 200m event, and for the first time, everyone has given the title of fastest man to a non-100m athlete.

First place, Beamon’s jump of the century

What is the greatest single game in the history of track and field? I think Beamon's century jump in 1968 was the first to bear the brunt. At that time, Beamon jumped 8.90 meters under the condition of plateau + chicken blood, which improved the world record by 55cm. It was called a miracle. This jump caused a sensation all over the world. Bob Beamon became a world sports star. 52 years have passed, and Beamon's long jump score of 58.90 meters still ranks second in history, even further than the long jump god Carl Lewis' PB.

Perhaps Beamon's performance will be surpassed countless times in the future, but he raised the men's long jump world record from 8.45 meters to 8.90 meters in one go, an increase of 6.50%. This achievement may never be surpassed.
