or if you want to know the distance of each lane i think lane 8 is something like 450m. if you measure from the start of the 400m back to the finish line and add 400m that should give the dist. you would travel in that lane
if you are the average runner you should work hared to get your time around 2:20 and below. This doesn't only pertain to a 15 yr old but anyone in HS. If you really want to be good then you should try to run a 2:10 and below. But the best times are usually 2:02 and below. i am a freshman and i run 400m in about high 57 and 800 in 2:15 and the mile in 5:10.
The following was taken from a website: The length of the race is usually 3000 m. The number of laps depends on whether the water jump is located to the inside of lane one or to the outside of lane eight or nine. Each runner encounters a total of 28 barriers over the course of the race, as well as 7 water jumps. According to IAAF rules, barrier height is 914 mm (36 in) for men and 762 mm (30 in) for women. Unlike those used in hurdling, steeplechase barriers do not fall over if hit; some runners actually step on top of them. Four barriers are spaced around the track on level ground, and a fifth barrier at the top of the second turn (fourth barrier in a complete lap from the finish line) is the water jump, which consists of a barrier followed by a pit of water which is 3.66 m (12 ft) long and slopes upward from 700 mm (27.6 in) deep at the barrier end to even with the surface of the track. This slope rewards runners with more hurdling ability, because a longer jump results in a shallower landing in the water.
There is either an outside or outside pit at one corner of the track - not all tracks are set up for it- the pit will aready be there covered up with boards- much like a long jump pit that's not in use so it should blend in more or less. If it is an outside pit you only run 7 laps or so, compared to 7 1/2 on an inside pit- which is far more common. I think Penn Relays is an outside pit though. Other than that you can just fill it with a hose and water.
Orographic effect occurs when an air mass approaches a mountain range and is rapidly forced upward, causing any moisture to cool and create precipitation in the form of rain or snow.
Quick answer: Rapidly rising air forced up by mountains creates rain or snow
To create a water jump for the competitors of the event.
The 3000 meter steeplechase.
Through the 2008 Games in Beijing, the Olympic record for the 3000 meter steeplechase is 8:05:51 by Julius Kariuki of Kenya at the 1988 Games in Seoul.
That depends on your age.
In youth and masters track you can vault or climb the barriers, but in open or college track you can not.
For modern hurdles, the cross bar at the is made from PVC plastic and the stand is made from aluminum.
