Psychomotor problem:
Maintain the witness's movement speed as much as possible during the transmission phase.
D- Training Issues
On a strategic level: Collective mutual aid activity within an individual APSA.
In terms of energy: Make the best use of each runner's speed qualities to
make the witness cover a given distance as quickly as possible.
In terms of information: Decrease reaction time to different signals (visual, auditory)
to limit the risk taking during the transmission.
On the decision-making level: Recognize the moment that allows for making the right decision at the right time.

 F- Technical aspects
Before the race, the runners agree on:
. the placement of the trigger brand;
. the "left or right" hand that receives the baton,
. the handling,
. the placement in the corridor (on the interior side or exterior side);
. The branding: it is done before the ground race by a simple measurement in number.

(therefore successively the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th runner) monitors the progress of the previous runner and

Receiver faster than the giver.
Placement of runners
. Regardless of the situation, whether it's a turn or a straight line, the witness must always move on the
midline of the corridor.
. For a left hand transfer to the right hand, the giver will thus occupy the part

The transmissions of the witness
The different types of transmission:
The exchange known as the up sweep technique.
The exchange from below or the 'down sweep technique' in French.
G- Pedagogical aspects
Characteristics of the 3 levels of proficiency:

Adopt a transmission technique to run a distance of 2xn

Level 1

Reduce the transmission phase time during a race of

Level 2 2xn m to achieve better performance while respecting the
regulatory zone

Establish an effective strategy to run a distance of 2xn

Level 3

B- Internal logic
Speed running is the ability to cover a given distance (30, 40, 60, 100 m) in a
minimum of time.
C- Fundamental Issues

The magical problem the runner faces is also a problem of consistency.
with the internal logic of APS is that of the conservation of speed, acceleration and
departure.
Regarding the first and according to the level of practice and the explosive power developed
through weight training, the sprinter should be able to organize himself in his attitudes and his
technique to maintain the speed previously achieved.
One of the very essential points in succeeding in sprinting is also relaxation,

Classification according to distance:
In competition, endurance races are classified into two main categories:
The middle distance: from 800 m to 5000 m
The background: all races beyond 5000m
Classification according to energy processes:
The middle distance is the set of races requiring the development of a
good lactate capacity associated with quality maximum aerobic power;
The fund is the set of races that requires both good power.

The departure:
the start in lanes is only given for the 800m, the lanes are retracted at the

F- Technical aspects
Concept of train:
A race run at a constant pace is always more economical than a
alternation of accelerations and decelerations. For this, the runner must build
internal benchmarks allowing him to assess his appearance without external help

Variation of pace:
The ability to change pace allows one to adapt during a competition to a

opponent or to make a final sprint.
The variation in pace is very important for improving the indices.
