Long-distance runners



800 three-person continuous relay for 8 sets



Take three runners of comparable ability. Person A leads off with the first 400 of their first 800. Person B jumps in with them for THEIR first 400 of their first 800. Person A then rests after completing their second lap of their first 800, while Person C jumps in with Person B for THEIR second 400. Person A then jumps in with Person C for THEIR second 400 while Person B rests between the lap. This continues for 8 x 800 and requires three fairly evenly-paced athletes. The ‘rest’ is the amount of time it takes the runners to complete their lap.
