World Athletics announced that repechage rounds will be introduced to all individual track events at the 2024 Paris Olympics. Here’s a rundown of what this new rule means.
According to the former system used in track, athletes would advance solely through fastest running times. They would be called “lucky losers” because they would be added into the group of athletes who accomplished top placings in the heat.A positive note that comes out of the addition of repechage rounds is simply more opportunity for athletes to strut their stuff.
With this modification, every athlete competing in events that have a repechage round will get to run at least two races at the 2024 Summer Olympics.The hindrance would be that the events will now take longer. Rather than having three rounds, now there are four rounds – round one, repechage round, semifinals and the final.World Athletics announced on July 25 that repechage rounds would be introduced to all individual track events.
“The repechage rounds will give more exposure to our sport during the peak Olympic period and will be carefully scheduled to ensure that every event on our Olympic programme retains its share of the spotlight,” saidThe answer to this is technically, no. Since the 100m and long distance races have preliminary heats before round one, repechage rounds will not be included. Athletes need longer recovery time between rounds so this would be impossible.Athletics will be held from Thursday, Aug.
