Men Vs Women’s Hurdles #trackandfield

In track and field, both men and women participate in the 100m, 110m/100m hurdles, 400m hurdles, and other hurdle events. While the events are similar for both genders, there are some differences in terms of the height and spacing of the hurdles and the race distance.

In the 100m hurdles event, women run over 10 hurdles spaced 8.5 meters apart, while men run over 10 hurdles spaced 9.14 meters apart. The height of the hurdles is also lower for women at 84cm compared to 1.06 meters for men.

In the 110m/100m hurdles event, men run over 10 hurdles spaced 9.14 meters apart, with each hurdle being 1.067 meters high. Women run over 10 hurdles spaced 8.5 meters apart, with each hurdle being 0.84 meters high.

In the 400m hurdles event, women run over 10 hurdles spaced 35 meters apart, with each hurdle being 0.76 meters high. Men run over 10 hurdles spaced 35 meters apart, with each hurdle being 0.914 meters high.

Both men and women face their own set of challenges in hurdle events. For example, men may face more difficulty with the higher hurdles and the longer distance in the 400m hurdles event, while women may struggle with the faster pace and shorter distance in the 100m hurdles event. Additionally, technique, strength, and speed are important factors for success in hurdle events regardless of gender.

I'm a guy. 5'2" (1, 57m) and short-legged. I think I can just run through the holes😂.

Great explanation and demonstration! I continue to learn so much about this sport from YOU, Chari! YOU seriously are Track and Field’s GREATEST AMBASSADOR! YOU have an AMAZING Monday and week of training!

[gbedumallam]

Bear in mind, men run 110 meters, and women 100 meters, in spite of the height difference.

[Swav.Zielin]

Makes total sense since women are on average 6 inches shorter. Now if they applied this to basketball reduce the rim by half a foot maybe WNBA have some ratings.

[oliverlison]

Wow, did not know that. It is a huge difference.

[benw]

Wow. Very interesting. I would never of guessed.

And look, no one was harmed in the making of this video.

[tuttoazzurri]

Absolutely correct Chari… plz tell everyone!….👋🏻🇮🇹

I think also most women are shorter than most men. Not sure how much of an advantage this is for women, except for maybe unusually tall women.

Im a female and back then my school dont have proper coach so the admin called in the boys PE teacher to train girls running team... this teacher decided to train us with hurdles that was as tall as our waist line (fyi we were 16 and most of us are 154+cm tall). Hell I was so surprised on our first match that the hurdle was shorter than what we were used to. So you thought we breezed it? Nope. ALL of us were thrown off our game for some reason our brain couldnt compute. We got scolded and was told that we shouldve won.Mamy left the team except for me and 2 others. I enjoyed hurdle because I feel that it was a cool sport and continued the training. After awhile my brain was able to switch gears whenever Im in competitions. Im not sure if this is related but now at 27 im starting to feel lower back pain and stiff joints whenever I dont do muscle activation often. The pain intervals has gotten shorter over time. I never went to check because I dont know who to consult (like what kind of doctor)

Hello Chari, what are the distances between the hurdles?

[brucehutch]

The used-to-be high hurdles and low hurdles The 110 high hurdles in the 440 low hurdles. Spending time watching track and field the last 3 or 4 years.

[TheKillermanseries]

Nothing like sprinting full speed to smack your jibblets on the hurdle attempting to go over 😂

[citrix]

We also need to be careful of our jangly bits when hurdling

[ace]

9 inches look massive from this point of view

[user]

Love how objective you are about the differences. I’m actually brainwashed to expect backlash towards anyone explaining any difference between men and women. Or for the explanation to be super subjective. This video and positive comment section is a pleasant surprise

[ОрханПамук-щр]

Молодец! Хорошо объяснила. Просто и коротко

[Victori.A]

Not to mention men have the luxury of being taller!

[davidk]

Absolutely want to have good form on men's hurdling or you risk over-hurdling and that'll mess with your knees on the landing.
