The 400 metres, or 400 metre dash, is a common sprinting event in track and field competitions. It has been featured in the athletics programme at the Summer Olympics since 1896 (1964 for women). On a standard outdoor running track, it is exactly one lap around the track. Runners start in staggered positions and race in separate lanes for the entire course. In many countries, athletes previously competed in the 440 yard dash (402.336 m)—which is the length of a quarter of a mile and was referred to as the 'quarter-mile'—instead of the 400 m (437.445 yards), though this distance is now obsolete. An athlete who competes in the 400 m may still be referred to as 'quarter-miler'; the distance or event might still be called the "quarter."
Maximum sprint speed capability is a significant contributing factor to success in the event, but athletes also require substantial speed endurance and the ability to cope well with high amounts of lactic acid to sustain a fast speed over a whole lap. While considered to be predominantly an anaerobic event, there is some aerobic involvement and the degree of aerobic training required for 400 metre athletes is open to debate.
van Niekerk is a common Afrikaans surname. Notable people with the surname include:

We begin with Dwayne Miller, coach of the Norfolk Real Deal Track Club, as he coaches a strong group of 400 meter runners including 2X Olympic Gold Medalist LaShawn Merritt. As the season approaches, long sprinters and middle distances runners become a key to championship teams. Many coaches face a dilemma with their 400 runners in terms of "how hard should I go out" and "how should I pace a 400." Since we know that the start of a 400 race can be key, we offer a drill and commentary from Coach Miller and LaShawn Merritt regarding the start of the 400 meter race.

This is a typical running workout that we'd do for the 400m. Both of our base training is geared toward that of a 400m runner. These workouts aren't fun, they hurt, we get lactic, but it pays dividends when we get to competitions.

I looked at faith
I almost walked away
But I looked again
I found the nerve to close my eyes and say the words
To ask you in
And I heard no heavenly choir
No angels in whit attire
i got no amazing super hum omnipresent pow but....
CHORUS
I know You now
I know You now
I know You're in my heart
I know You now
Beyond the shadow of a doubt
I know You now
I look at peace, that once was out of reach
And now it's here
i read Your word that some believe is so absurd
But I hold dear, yea
'Cause You loved me with your dying breath
You saved me when You conquered death
