What is the description of the dynamics of the 400 meters hurdles race?
I- Athletes start from staggered starting blocks and must overcome a total of 10 hurdles spaced evenly across the 400-meter track. II- The first hurdle is located 45 meters from the start and the following nine at intervals of 35 meters. III- The hurdles to be cleared by men are 36 inches (91.4 cm) high; the hurdles to be cleared by women are 30 inches (76.2 cm). IV- In all cases, a reaction time (measured between the starting gun sensors and the starting blocks) of less than 0.1 seconds will be considered a false start, causing the players to return to the start and the disqualification of the responsible athlete. V- A runner can also be disqualified if he or she leaves their designated lane. VI- Likewise, the hurdles are easily knocked down if touched, allowing the athlete to continue the race even if they collide with them.
