	Hurdling
		In it, runners jump over several 'hurdles' which are wood obstacles that are about 1 meter high.
		Generally, the hurdles are designed to safely fall over if the runner misses them.
		Hurdling events usually come in 50, 100, 110 or 400 meter distances.

	Hurdling - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The standard sprint hurdle race is 110 metres for men and 100 metres for women.
		The sprint hurdle races (60 m, 100 m and 110 m) use high hurdles, which are 42 inches (1.07 m) high (39 inches, or 0.99 m, in U.S. high school competition) for men and 33 inches (.84 m) high for women.
		In sprint hurdle races for men, regardless of the length of the race, the first hurdle is 15 yards (13.72 m) from the starting line and the distance between hurdles is 10 yards (9.14 m).

	Lesson 1 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
		Hurdling is a specialized form of sprinting that requires the clearance of a series of hurdles.
		The high hurdlers’ horizontal displacements between the apex of the CM trajectory and the hurdle ranged from 34.9 cm in front of the hurdle to 38.8 cm after the hurdle.
		A horizontal displacement between the CM apex and the hurdle would be indicative of improper striding or flight trajectories, where the take-off step occurred too close or too far from the hurdle or they projected their body at an improper angle.

	The Hurdle Events - - by Marco Steybe
		Hurdle clearance is accomplished by transferring speed (horizontal momentum) vertical at take-off.
		Hurdling speed can only be improved by increasing the efficiency of hurdle clearance and the stride rate between hurdles.
		Hurdle training emphasis through your league meet and state qualifying meets should focus on low-volume, high-quality technique training, recovery, and racing.

	Hurdling in the Dark
		Hurdling in the dark – after the sun has gone down, but before it is too dark outside to see – is something that plenty of hurdlers have been forced to do at some point or another in their careers.
		The very idea of hurdling in the dark is something that only another dedicated hurdler, or a dedicated hurdle coach, would understand and appreciate.
		When you finish a demanding hurdle workout and there is nobody out there except for you and the moon, and maybe a coach or a teammate, you feel good about yourself.

		Since hurdling is basically a sprinting event, the mechanics of the start do not vary much from that of the sprint start.
		Some modification of the postion of the block may be necessary, depending on the approach to the first hurdle.

	Everyone Profits from Hurdling Dividends
		The firm's cost of capital, therefore, is the hurdle rate – the cost that must be exceeded for a project to be profitable.
		The hurdle rate can also be thought of as the minimum profit the firm has to return to its investors.
		When a project's rate of return is greater than the firm's cost of capital, it clears the hurdle rate; the project will be undertaken because it is profitable.

	Hurdling Risk - Checks and Balances - CIO Magazine June 15, 1998 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
		Hurdle rates are set somewhat arbitrarily, but those who set rates usually try to take risk into account.
		He also notes that hurdle rates are inappropriate for most infrastructure investments because some are not optional; therefore ROI doesn't apply (and a hurdle rate is thus not a decision criterion).
		This means that the real hurdle rate of the company--adjusted for risk--could easily surpass 100 percent or more for a $3 million investment.
