In ancient Greece, long jump was part of the pentathlon and involved athletes jumping as far as possible from a designated take-off point. Competitors used weights called halteres, which they would swing to gain momentum and enhance their jump distance. Athletes were judged based on the distance of their jumps, with the best performers receiving accolades. The event emphasized both physical skill and technique, reflecting the broader values of athletic excellence in Greek culture.

In long jump, athletes must take off from a designated board without stepping over the edge, which would result in a foul. The jump is measured from the takeoff board to the nearest mark made in the sand pit upon landing. Each athlete typically gets three attempts, and the best jump is recorded. Additionally, competitors must adhere to the specific runway length and width, and there are rules regarding the use of footwear and attire during competition.
