What is the "110 meters hurdles"?

The 110 meters hurdles is a track and field race where athletes run a sprint while clearing ten hurdles set at a specific height. The hurdles are placed at equal distances along the 110-meter track. Athletes must clear each hurdle without knocking it over, while maintaining their speed and technique throughout the race. The event tests both sprinting speed and agility, as athletes need to time their jumps correctly while avoiding losing momentum. The goal is to complete the race in the fastest time, with the athlete who clears the hurdles and crosses the finish line first winning the race.
