How many people are there in a 100 meter sprint?

The number of people in a 100 meter sprint varies dependant upon the competition itself. On a training, high school, or college running track there are 8 lanes. Thus during a heat of the 100 meter sprint, there may be up to 8 people running at one time. On an Olympic or professional track there are 9 lanes, though often one lane is left empty during competition. Of course in either situation, there may be numerous heats, which leaves the total number of people competing dependant upon the parameters of that specific competition, or the number of athletes entered in the competition.

The left lane is supposed to be the fast lane. If you want to drive faster, then use the left lane. Traditionally it is ment to be the passing lane. If you want to pass someone driving slowly in the right lane, then pass them using the left lane, and get back over to the right lane until you need to pass someone else. However, you should not sit in the left lane driving slowly. It is ment to be a passing lane and if you sit out in the left lane, it will make others unhappy! I hope this helped!
