Hell no! lane 1 is for the best, because you can see how fast everyone is running and how you should adjust your speed. I'm in 8th grade and I run the 400 in 55 seconds. I've never lost and I'm always in lane 1 or 2. for 200, or maybe a hurdle event it might be better due to the fact that the turn actually affects your running. and the hurdle might be sharper and harder to jump over. But I'm also the best 200 hurdeler and I've tried first lane and won.

A running track has parallel sides and semicircular ends Each lane is 1 meter wide How much of a head start should the runner in the outside lane receive over the one in the second lane from outside?

The distance gap between each lane is equal to the circumference of the semicircle at the end of the track plus the width of the lane. Assuming each lane has the same width, the runner in the outside lane should receive a head start equivalent to the circumference of one semicircular end plus the width of one lane.
