The runner carrying the baton is typically referred to as the "lead runner" or simply "the runner." In relay races, each participant takes turns running a segment of the race while passing the baton to the next runner. The specific name may vary depending on the context or the particular relay team.
A baton pass is a technique used in relay races where one runner transfers a baton to the next runner. The outgoing runner begins running before receiving the baton to maintain speed and momentum, and the exchange typically occurs within a designated exchange zone. The key is to ensure a smooth handoff without dropping the baton, as this can lead to disqualification or a loss of time. Proper timing and coordination are essential for a successful baton pass.
In a relay race, the baton is exchanged in the runner's dominant hand, typically the right hand for right-handed runners and the left hand for left-handed runners. The exchange occurs within a designated exchange zone, where the outgoing runner accelerates while the incoming runner hands off the baton. This technique helps maintain speed and efficiency during the transition. Proper training and practice are crucial for a successful baton exchange.

Baton Rouge is the capital of Louisiana. Its name means "red stick" in French.
In relay races, baton changes can be executed using two primary methods: the blind pass and the visual pass. In the blind pass, the outgoing runner relies on timing and feel to receive the baton without looking back, which can be faster but requires precise coordination. Conversely, the visual pass involves the outgoing runner looking back to ensure a smooth handoff, typically used for less experienced teams or in longer relay races. Both methods necessitate practice to optimize speed and efficiency during the transition.
A relay race is a race in which a baton is handed from runner to runner until the baton eventually makes it all the way around the track. Each runner carries the baton a measure, and then hands it off to the next runner.

It is a baton.
Transferring of the baton in this race is typically blind. The outgoing runner reaches a straight arm backwards when they enter the changeover box, or when the incoming runner makes a verbal signal. The outgoing runner does not look backwards, and it is the responsibility of the incoming runner to thrust the baton into the outstretched hand, and not let go until the outgoing runner takes hold of it. Runners on the first and third legs typically run on the inside of the lane with the baton in their right hand, while runners on the second and fourth legs take the baton in their left. Polished handovers can compensate for a lack of basic speed to some extent, and disqualification for dropping the baton or failing to transfer it within the box are common, even at the highest level.

In a 4x400m relay, each runner completes one lap (400m) before handing off a baton to the next runner. To successfully pass the baton, the outgoing runner should start in a designated exchange zone, while the incoming runner approaches at full speed. The baton should be held firmly and passed smoothly, ensuring the outgoing runner accelerates before receiving it. Proper timing and practice are essential for a successful exchange to minimize time lost during the handoff.
Every 400 meters.
In a relay race, the baton is typically carried in the dominant hand of the runner. This allows for better control and a more natural grip during the handoff. When passing the baton, the outgoing runner usually extends their dominant hand backward to receive it, facilitating a smooth transition. However, practice and coordination between team members are crucial for successful handoffs.
