Q & A

What are the different types of athletic events mentioned in the script?

The script mentions four types of athletic events: track events, field events, road events, and combined events. However, the video focuses specifically on track events.

What defines a track event in athletics?

Track events are competitions that take place on an athletic track, which is why they're also called 'pista' (track) events. They mainly consist of various types of running races.

What are the four categories of track events in athletics?

The four categories of track events discussed are: sprints (races without obstacles), relay races, hurdle races, and obstacle races.

What distinguishes sprints from other track events?

Sprints are short-distance races with no obstacles, and they are further divided into 100m, 200m, and 400m races. These events use starting blocks and athletes must remain in their assigned lanes.

How are middle-distance and long-distance races different from sprints?

Middle-distance races (800m and 1500m) and long-distance races (5000m and 10000m) are run without starting blocks, and athletes are not required to stay within specific lanes throughout the race.

What are relay races in athletics?

Relay races are team events where athletes pass a baton to the next runner. There are two main types: the 4x100m and 4x400m relays, both involving a team of four athletes.

What is the importance of the baton in a relay race?

The baton must be passed from one athlete to the next without dropping it. The race is won by the team that successfully completes the relay leg in the shortest time.

What are hurdle races in athletics?

Hurdle races are sprints that involve athletes jumping over hurdles placed along the track. There are 100m hurdles for women, 110m hurdles for men, and 400m hurdles for both genders.

Can athletes knock down hurdles during a hurdle race?

Yes, athletes are allowed to knock down hurdles during a race as long as they attempt to clear them. However, they must not intentionally run over them.

What is the difference between hurdle races and obstacle races?

While both involve jumping over barriers, obstacle races like the 3000m steeplechase are longer and include water-filled pits that athletes must also jump over, which is not part of hurdle races.
