Men's 3000 meter steeplechase.
i would have to say it is the steeplechase...it is a 3000 meter race, in which you have clear 28 ordinary barriers, and 7 water jumps
200 meter hurdles, 400 meter hurdles, 3000 meter steeplechase
3000 meters is not a standard distance in rowing, so there would be no recognized record for it.
The 3000 meter steeplechase is a track race with solid hurdles that do not move but can be stepped on. One of the the hurdles is in front of a shallow pool of water.
In 20111 the champions were Ezekiel Kemboi (Kenya) for men and Yuliya Zaripova (Russia) for women.
New events in the 2008 Games include BMX cycling, women's 3000 meter steeplechase, marathon (10 km) swimming, and team events in table tennis.
