Long Jump

Long jump is part of Athletics with the aim to jump after a run-up as far as possible. It is also part of a Decathlon (for men) and heptathlon (for women).

Often one sets a bar behind the outlet Strip with plasticine as a check: If the jumper a foot beyond the marketing bar this will leave a print in the plasticine. The length of the jump is measured from the bar to the first print outlet that springer makes in the sandbox, starting from the marketing bar.
