Wellington Masters
Steeplechase |
One
of the less popular events, particularly amongst masters,
the steeplechase been an Olympic event since 1896. The event
distance varied from 2500m to 4000m until 1920 when it
settled on 3000m for men. (Except for the 1932 Olympics when
a lap scoring error meant everyone ran an extra lap for an
additional 460m!). Women
contested the 3000m steeplechase from the 2008 Olympics.
There are two separate steeplechase events contested by
masters. Women and men aged 60 and over race 2000m over
steeples that are 0.762m high. The younger men race 3000m
with hurdles of 0.914m. |
