anchor
In a 4x100 meter relay, the positions are typically referred to as the first leg, second leg, third leg, and anchor leg. The first leg starts the race, passing the baton to the second leg, who runs the next segment. The third leg continues the race, and finally, the anchor leg finishes the race, often being the fastest runner on the team. Effective baton exchanges are crucial for a successful relay.
The burden of relay refers to the responsibility placed on a relay team's anchor leg runner to bring the baton across the finish line. This runner carries the weight of the team's performance and often faces pressure to secure a win or maintain a lead. It is a critical position in relay races where a team's success can hinge on the performance of the anchor leg runner.
Squats, leg curls, running, swimming

Swimming is good for toning leg muscles and also your butt and abs too it. It's also more fun then crunches and running.
The anchor is the last person on a relay race team. Because it is such a critical position, it is often filled by the team's best runner. The term is used in a similar fashion in other team sports as well, such as league bowling.
In the 4x400m relay, the shortest leg is typically the third leg. This is because it often features a runner who excels at maintaining a strong pace and is capable of handling the critical middle portion of the race, where the competition can become intense. Additionally, the third leg runner may also benefit from the momentum built by the first two legs, setting up a strong position for the anchor leg.
That was the 4x100 meter relay at the 1932 Summer Games in Los Angeles. He ran the second leg for the team with Bob Kiesel running first, Hector Dyer running third, and Frank Wykoff running the final leg.
When your running on your right leg.
