Two sports come to mind when I see the phrase "100 yards long". One is the field of play in American style football. Both college & NFL football. Excluding the 10 yard end zones, the regular field of play is 100 yards long. Also, in high school track, the old 100 yard dash is still an exciting event. A good time for high school kids in the 100 yard dash is 9.5 seconds. An average time is around 10 seconds.
