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.

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
