Masters athletics

[edit]

The event is the official distance for the M80+ and W70+ divisions ofMasters athletics.The height for all hurdles in these age groups is 27 "(69 cm) and arrangement of the hurdles is different from the previous version. The distance to the first hurdle is 20 metres, which corresponds with the markings for the last half of a 400 metres hurdle race, standard on most tracks. Because, like the flat200 metres,the race only covers half a standard track, a wind reading is required.

27-inch hurdles

[edit]

The idea of using 27-inch (68.6 cm) hurdles was introduced in Europe in 2000.[34][35]The increment does not exist on standard hurdles, which caused resistance from someNGBs,but the rules were adopted worldwide.[36]Many modern hurdles will not go to that height or would at least require modification to cut the hurdle. Most facilities that have spent thousands of dollars to buy regulation hurdles would certainly not let their hurdles be damaged like this. Since it is a requirement,[37]major championship meets have purchased a few sets of modern modified hurdles, which then creates the logistical problem of shipping these few hurdles between meets in order for the competitors to have an opportunity to race over proper hurdles. As a substitute, many older hurdle designs are easier to modify to get to the proper height and most facilities are less protective of the old, rusty hurdles in the junk pile. Also many training hurdles (used to teach smaller, youth beginners) will go to 27 inches and lower.

Records

[edit]

After setting the world record for the 300 metres hurdles during its last year on the official program at age 80, at age 81, CanadianEarl Feeset the still standing world record of 36.95 (+0.0) at the NCCWMA Regional Championships inMayaguez,Puerto Ricoon September 5, 2010.
