Long Jump
The long jump is a track and field event where athletes sprint down a runway and jump as far as possible into a sandpit. The athlete must take off from a designated board and land in the sandpit, with the distance measured from the board to the closest mark in the sand left by any part of the athlete's body. It requires a combination of speed, strength, and technique to achieve maximum distance.
