To measure the run-way of a long jump pit's run way simple use a measuring tape, then put the end of the tape on the board that the jumper wants to jump off of. Then have the jumper place his/her take-of foot's heel in the middle of the board. Then depending on the number of steps that the jumper wants to take count that number when their jumping foot hits the ground. the measure from where their foot lands. This is how you measure the board.

Its to build up forward momentum so that when they jump they already have a forward motion that would be greater than that of a jump made from standing in one spot. You need forward momentum to get a good long jump and the best way is to have a running start.
