About Relay Rhythm

Relay Rhythm is one 200 metre straight and one cadence bar. A marker sweeps back and forth through a bright band, and each press is a stride: on the beat the runner gets a strong push, off the beat only a small one, and speed always drifts away between strides.

There is no steering and no rival to beat, only the runner's own cadence against the clock. The band narrows and the sweep quickens as the runner speeds up, so a good start makes the rhythm harder to hold. It is played for points only, with no stake of any kind.
