Set Up: 5 hurdles at 3-foot spacing, 5 hurdles at 4-foot spacing, side by side (a foot apart)
Pattern: Run five times through the 3 foot, then 5 times through the 4-foot. If 2 or more athletes, let them "race" two at a time, then switch.
Description: Start with the 3-foot spacing. With 2 athletes, they will run through the hurdles on the coaches command, racing through 5 times then switch. The 3-foot spacing is trying to accelerate to keep up with the longer 4-foot stride. It is the contrast that the athletes will notice.
