Athletics
Hurdles, sport of athletics
(track and field) in which a runner runs over a series of obstacles called
hurdles, which are placed a fixed distance apart. Runners must stay in their
own lanes in a race and while they can knock hurdles down when running over
them, a runner who trails a foot or leg alongside a hurdle or knocks it down
with a hand is disqualified. So, today I will share about the distance set out
of hurdles and standard height of hurdles.
