400 Meter Hurdles

The men's world record in the 400 meter dash is 43.18 seconds. The men's world record in the 400 meter hurdles is 46.78 seconds. This is a difference of 3.60 seconds. The women's world record in the 400 meter dash is 47.60 seconds. The women's world record in the 400 meter hurdles is 52.34 seconds. This is a difference of 4.74 seconds.

In the 400 meter hurdle, there are 10 hurdles. Each hurdle is 30" tall with 35m between them. There is a 45m distance before the first hurdle and a 40m distance to the finish line from the last hurdle.

Well with proper hurdle technique you should be able to maintain a 1:03 or 1:04. Considering your probably a beginner I would expect your time to be a 1:09, 10 seconds slower than your 400m time.

Edwin Moses of the United States competed in men's 400 meter hurdles at the 1976, 1984, and 1988 Summer Games. He won gold in 1976 and 1984 and bronze in 1988.

There are two (or three) general types of hurdles races. "Short" hurdles could be anywhere from 50 yards, to 110 meters. They are over generally higher hurdles, obviously closer together in a straightaway. Heights and spacing depend on age and gender, number of hurdles usually either 5 or 10 (indoors or outdoors).

"Long" hurdles are from between 200 meters and 400 meters (or 440 yards). All are 35 meters apart. Ten hurdles, for the longest of those races.

There was also a legacy race over low (30" hurdles) that went distances like 220 yards, 200 meters, 180 yards. Those were generally discontinued in the 1960's and 1970's.

The third kind of hurdle race is a long distance race called steeplechase. It is over barriers (hurdles that do not fall down). 5 barriers per lap, the 4th one is over a water jump.

Most Recent Olympics winner: Angelo Taylor (USA) (2008)

Most Recent IAAF World Championship winner: Kerron Clement (USA) (2009)

Dayron Robles of Cuba won the Olympic 110m hurdle competition and also holds the world record, so one could say that he is the best in the world at the moment in the 110s. His main competition, Liu Xiang, of China, exited the Olympics because of an Achilles injury. Angelo Taylor (USA) won the 400m hurdle competition, but Kevin Young (USA) has held the world record in that event since 1992.

NOTE: this is taking about todays best hurdles, not the pasts.

The 110 meter Hurdles will be very interesting next year and the best will definitely be crowned next year. Most Track and field fans will want to see the showdown between 3 champions: Dayron Robles, Ryan Brathwaite, and Liu Xiang. Throw in some American Wild cards and Terrence Trammell and you have a good race.

The 400 meter Hurdles will be a lockdown by Kerron Clement. The old Angelo Taylor will not try to challenge him. Javier Culson, L. J. Van Zyl, or Batman Jackson can only hope to defeat Kerron Clement once or twice next year.
