How tall are hurdles for freshmen girls?

I'm 5'2", and a girl- how tall are the hurdles for that age/height/etc? (I'm new to track- sorry if I'm mistaken on some things). Also, what is the form, and what can I do to get ready for hurdles? Thanks a boatload!|||For starts it depends on what race you're running.


The 100M hurdles have the highest hight, and they will be above your waist, and the 300M hurdles have the lowest hight possible which will be about right at your waist.





The form will have to be coached it's not easy to explain, but a lot of hurdlers are naturals. Watch a youtube video of a meet or something if you want to see it.


To get ready you should work on hip flexibility and mobility. This will make you smoother and faster over the hurdles.
