Does the first runner in a 4 x 400 run more than 400 meters?
NO they do not. The first runner has to stay in the same lane of the track the whole time. If the first runner starts in one of the outer lanes their start line is ahead of the person in lane 1. The 2 3 4 runners can be in whatever lane they want to be in but lane 1 is the best cause you have to walk a shorter distance
