3 years agoContext: This was a mixed gender race. Each team had to have two females and two males. Most teams chose this strategy: Male Female Female Male So they chose a male for a good head start and a male as the last anchor to hold in their position. However, Poland decided to do: Male Male Female Female Their strategy was trying to get a large enough lead in order for the last female anchor to be able to hold out. However, one thing that they totally missed is that your last runner should always be your fastest. This way, they can either bring up your position in the end or hold it. Anyways, this was just some basic context for any of you that were wondering what was going on.
