What is the length of the exchange zone for the 4x100 Meter Relay and 4x200 Meter Relay?
The exchange zone for the 4x100 meter relay is 20 meters long, allowing teams to pass the baton within this designated area. In the 4x200 meter relay, the exchange zone is also 20 meters long, but it is important to note that the total distance covered by each runner varies, as they run a longer overall distance than in the 4x100. Both relays have a designated acceleration zone of 10 meters before the exchange zone, where the incoming runner can start running at full speed.

Could you please explain why in Track and Field there is no 4 x 200 meter relay?
The 4x200 meter relay is less common in Track and Field primarily due to its logistical challenges and the nature of sprint events. Unlike the 4x100 meter and 4x400 meter relays, which fit more naturally into the track layout and pacing strategy, the 4x200 meter relay requires a longer exchange zone and can complicate race dynamics. Additionally, the focus in major competitions often remains on the more traditional relays, leading to less emphasis on the 4x200 meter format. As a result, it is rarely contested at elite levels.
