What is "hurdling"?
Hurdling is a track and field event where athletes race to jump over a series of obstacles, called hurdles, placed at regular intervals along the track. The goal is to complete the race in the fastest time possible while clearing each hurdle without knocking them over. Hurdles are typically set at different heights depending on the competition level, and athletes must maintain speed and technique to avoid slowing down or falling. The event tests agility, speed, and coordination, as athletes need to time their jumps perfectly while maintaining their momentum throughout the race.
Example
He set a new school record in the 110-meter hurdling.
