sprinter

A sprinter is an athlete trained to run short-distance races at high speed, typically covering distances like 100, 200, or 400 meters. These races emphasize explosive power, rapid acceleration, and efficient technique to achieve maximum speed quickly. Sprinters focus on strength, acceleration, and proper form to minimize resistance and maintain velocity. Their training involves sprint drills, strength exercises, and precise pacing strategies to excel in short bursts of intense effort, making them some of the fastest runners in athletic competitions.
