The distance of a long jump is measured in centimeters (cm) from the takeoff board to the nearest landing point in the sand. In competitive athletics, jumps can vary widely, with elite male athletes often jumping over 800 cm (8 meters) and elite female athletes typically exceeding 700 cm (7 meters). The measurement is taken from the edge of the takeoff board closest to the landing mark made by the jumper's body.
