The 4x100 meter relay (Pronounced: The "Four by One-hundred" meter relay)
My favorite Olympic event is the 4x100m relay.
The Olympic event in which there are teams of 4 people each run 100 meters and hand a baton (a stick) to one another is called the '4 by 100 meter relay.' This is most often written '4x100 m relay.' The 'x' is used to mean 'by' and comes from mathematics terminology where 'by' means 'multiplied by' (EX 4 x 2 = 8; 4 by 2 = 8).
It’s as simple as that! If four team members each run 100m in a relay, the event in which they compete is called a 400 meter relay. Olympic events are pretty straightforward like that.
A four hundred meter relay event is where there are four runners, each running 100 meters each with a baton/stick that they give to the next runner at the end of their 100 meter run.
The four hundred meter relay is an athletics event where a team of four runners have to run around the four hundred meter track, one hundred meters each, each team has to run with a baton, once one runner reaches the next runner in their team they must pass on the baton. The first team to reach the end of the four hundred meter track with their baton wins the race.
The Olympic event where four runners each run 100 meters is called a 4 x 100 relay Race.
The last runner to run with the baton in a 4 x 100 relay race is credited with the win.
The Olympic event where four runners each run 100 meters is called a 4 x 100 relay Race. Each of the first four runners hold a baton in one hand which they run with and hand it over to the next runner. The second runner hands the baton over to the third runner who also sprints and hands it over to the fourth sprinter, who makes sure that he/she runs faster than the other competeing runners. The less the time a team's baton spends in the exchange zones, the greater chance the team has of winning the relay race. However, the last runner to hold and run with the baton, is credited with the win for his team. It is extremely important therefore that the baton passes through the exchange zones faster than the batons of the other teams and also to place a very fast runner at the end. Please note that the 'x' is read as 'by', 4 by 100 relay race.
So, you may say:
In the Olympic track events, the 4 by 100 relay race is my favourite.
or
My favourite runner won the Olympic 4 by 100 relay race.

The English word "relay" (noun or verb) means to pass something from one place/person to another. For example, "I relay messages from my boss to his assistant." A relay race is a team-based event where the active runner passes a stick or baton to their teammate who then continues the race. A 400m (four hundred meter) race would be a single person running 400 meters. A 4x100m (four hundred meter relay race) has 4 runners, each running 100m of the total race track. In conversational English we don't need to specify the distance each individual runs, because it's assumed that they each run an equal distance. So, you can simply say "the four hundred meter relay", and it is understood that 4 people each ran part of the distance.
A, "400 meter relay," is the term we would use to describe a race that is done with 4 different people each running 100 meters for a total of 400 meters.
