Track and Field

Only if they are champions. Other wise, they are like you and me.

A standard running track has 400 m in one lap.

The 800 m race is therefore 2 laps of the track.

The 100m dash, 200 m dash, (sometimes) 400m dash, 100m hurdles, 110m hurdles, (sometimes) 300m hurdles, and sprint relays.

given that the width of the lanes are 1.25 Meters the length around the 3rd land will be roughly 415.3 Meters or the equivalent to about 7.67 Meters per lane more as you move to the outside of the track. i.e. Lane 4 would be around 422.97

It depends on what the indoor track meet is at. If it is at a highschool then there probably won't be much room to do much stuff like the 100M or anything above unless they have you run laps to have it count...but if the track meet is inside like a stadium or a work out place then I am sure you would be able to run the 100M 200M 400M 800M 1600M and the mile. But don't ask me if I am correct because this is only what I think.

The pit lane opens thirty minutes before the start of a race, during which time drivers may drive around the track as much as they like, driving through the pitlane each time around in order to avoid the grid. Drivers must be in their cars and in place on the grid by time the pit lane closes at -15:00; otherwise they must start the race from the pits. Meanwhile, teams may work on their cars on the grid. At -10:00 the grid is cleared of everyone except team mechanics, race marshals, and drivers. A team will generally want to keep its tyres off their cars and heated in their tyre-warmers for as long as possible, but they must be attached to the cars by -3:00. Engines must be running by -1:00; at fifteen seconds to the start all personnel must be clear of the track. Two green lights signify the start of the formation lap, also known as the parade lap, during which drivers must remain in the same order (no passing) except if a car ahead has stopped due to a technical problem, or has had an accident. The cars circle the track once, usually weaving from side to side to warm up their tyres, and form up again in their starting positions on the grid. If, for some reason, a car cannot start the race (engine failure during qualifying or practice, suspension fails, etc), the car can still join the race, but will take a 10-position penalty at the start. For example, if the car qualifies in 3rd, but has to change an engine at any point during the race weekend prior to the actual race, the car will start from 13th position. For strategy's sake, teams will sometimes opt to start a car affected in this way from the pit lane. This means they start at the tail end of the grid; however, they can not only change an engine, but also start the race on a full load of fuel and with fresh tyres. The race is started by five red lights, controlled by FIA Race Director Charlie Whiting. The lights illuminate one at a time, left to right, in one-second intervals, and then go out simultaneously after an interval of between four and seven seconds. When the lights go out, the race begins. Should the start need to be aborted for any reason, all five red lights will come on as normal, but instead of going out, the three orange lights will flash. All engines are stopped and the start resumes from the five minute point. If a single driver raises his hand to indicate that he can't start, the marshall for that row will wave a yellow flag, then after a few seconds, both the red and orange lights will extinguish and the green lights will come on to indicate another formation lap Penalties may be imposed on drivers for numerous offenses, including starting prematurely, speeding in the pitlane, causing an accident, blocking unfairly, or ignoring flags of any color. There are four types of penalty which a driver may incur for violation of on-track rules: * The drive-through penalty requires the driver to enter the pitlane, drive through it while obeying its speed limit, and exit without stopping. * The ten-second (or stop-go) penalty requires the driver to enter the pitlane, stop at his pit for ten seconds, and exit again. Team mechanics may not work on the driver's car at any time while the driver is serving the penalty. * A more extreme penalty may be imposed for more severe infractions: adding ten places to the driver's grid position at the next grand prix, e.g. if he qualified in pole position he would start the race eleventh from the front. * The most severe penalty in common use is a black flag, which may be imposed for ignoring penalties or for technical irregularities of any sort; it signifies that the driver has been disqualified from the race and his results for that race will not count toward the championship. * If the black flag is not considered sufficient for the offense that the driver has committed, they may be banned for a number of races after the event. * The most extreme punishment of all (used for seriously endangering the life of another driver) is to be excluded from the drivers world championship that year. Such cases may, of course, also be taken to court. For the drive-through and stop-go penalties, a driver has three laps from the time his team hears of the penalty to enter the pits; if he does not pit within three laps, he will be black-flagged. If he incurs a penalty within the last five laps of the race, he need not pit at all; instead, twenty-five seconds will be added to his total race time.

The record is 50.74 seconds set by Monique Henderson of Cerritos, California on 3 June 2000.

Since 1921, the IAAF has stated that a marathon's distance is standardized at 42.195K or 26 miles and 385 yards.

If you are using a standard 400M track, and running exclusively in lane 1, then you will need to complete 105.4875 laps in order to complete a marathon or essentially 105 and 1/2 laps.

If you use an outer lane, then you will not need to run as many laps.

it is half of 5,280

It is located near the East end, and is near Viau metro station.

5.0 seconds by Herb Washington in 1973. It was the official world indoor record at the time. Since all official world records, except for the mile and marathon, must be in meters, the mark is not listed any more. But it is still the

fastest legal time ever officially recognized. Note that world records must now

be recorded electronically. Washington's time would now "unofficially" convert to a 5.24. But his time may have really been a hand time 4.91, which would have converted up to 5.0, so his electronic time equivalent could be about

5.15 instead. Regardless, 5.0 is fast.

Probably 7.5 to 8.5 seconds it depends on the person.

40 yards is approximately 36 meters.

If you assume that the first full second is linear acceleration up to top speed, to run 9.55 for 100m you'd accelerate from 0 to 11 meters per second in the first second, then run 11 meters per second from there on.

In the first second you'll cover 5.5 meters. After that, you'll cover 11 meters every second and have 30.5 meters to go, so you'll do that in 2.75 seconds or so.

This will give you a 40 yard dash time, electronically timed from the gun of 3.75 seconds.

HOWEVER, there is one big difference between a football forty and the first 36 meters of a track hundred. The 40 starts when the runner does. This can take off up to a full tenth.

It takes pretty much your whole life, almost all NASCAR drivers today started racing competitively before they were 10 years old. Also to make it in NASCAR you need a good sponsor and a good crew and crew chief or you wont last very long.

According to http://www.athleticscholarships.net/footballscholarships.htm, Division 2 schools are allowed 36 football scholarships where Division 1 schools are allowed 85 and Division 1AA are allowed 63.

For teams competing in NBTA events, a team must have a minimum of 4 members. A small team is 4-8 members... a large team is 9 or more members.

desean Jackson ran a 4.29 in the 40 yard dash and is one of the best recievers

25 - 30 seconds, i run it in 23 and thats a little on the faster side. to put it in perspective the fastest time ever ran is 19.9 seconds.

If you took a long run today after several days of inactivity you may be experiencing calf pain. To get rid of this plan it would suggest the icy hot patch.

The first gold medalist in track and field at the Modern Olympics was James Connolly of the United States in the triple jump in the 1896 Games in Athens.

The pitch is normally (NRL REGS) 100 meters in length goal line to goal line its is marked across the centre line (50m) each half is then lined off (fron the centre line ) 10 metres. Then from the goal line it is marked 10 meters and at 20 meters. The goal line to dead ball line is must be 6m minimum to 11 m max in depth.

In the heptathlon, there are two, javelin and shot put.

No it doesn't because the taller you are the shorter the distance you jump when you get measured

Donovan Bailey he was the first Canadian to legally break the 10-second barrier in the 100 m. Particularly noted for his top speed, Bailey ran 27.07 mph (12.10 m/s) in his 1996 Olympic title run, the fastest ever recorded at the time.
