What are the rules of the 100m hurdles?
The hurdles are knocked down easily if touched, which allows the athlete to continue the race even if she collides with them. A runner can be disqualified if she steps out of her designated lane. The finishing order is determined on time. At major championships, the women’s 100m hurdles format typically consists of heats, semifinals and final.
How do women’s 100m hurdles work?
Women start from blocks and negotiate ten 2ft 9in (83.8cm) hurdles spread over a 100m straight. A reaction time – measured by sensors in the starting pistol and on the blocks – of less than 0.1 is deemed a false start and runners will be recalled, and the responsible athlete disqualified.
What is the history of the 100m hurdles?
The event evolved from wooden barriers being placed along a 100 yard stretch, in England during the 1830s. The inaugural Women’s World Games of 1922 featured the 100m hurdles, and a slightly truncated event made its first Olympic appearance over the 80m distance in 1932. The distance was increased to 100m at the 1972 Olympics.
