4x100 meter relay

The 4x100 meter relay is a track event where a team of four runners each completes a 100-meter segment of the race, passing a baton to the next runner smoothly to maintain speed. The race requires precise timing, coordination, and teamwork to efficiently transfer the baton within designated exchange zones on the track. The team’s goal is to finish the total distance of 400 meters faster than other teams, making effective baton handoffs and individual speed critical to achieving a winning time.
