田径历来是奥运会上的金牌大户,号称“运动之母”。随着中国在经济上的飞速增长和综合国力的不断强大,中国竞技体育在总体上呈现出蒸蒸日上的喜人景象。但从90年代以来中国的田径竞技水平却持续低迷,甚至在一些优势项目上出现了滑坡。通过从竞赛制度、思想观念以及基础训练等方面阐明问题的主要症结,希望对广大体育工作者有所启发。 Athletics has always been the gold medalist in the Olympic Games, known as “the mother of sports.” With the rapid economic growth in China and the continuous strengthening of its overall national strength, China’s competitive sports as a whole are showing gratifying signs of prosperity. However, the track and field athletics level in China has been in a sluggish state since the 1990s, and even landslides have taken place in some advantageous projects. Through clarifying the main crux of the issue from the aspects of competition system, ideological concepts and basic training, I hope that the sportsmen can be inspired.
