Sažetak
Sprinting characteristics of 12-year-old boys, who were not engaged in athletic activities at that time, were detrmined on a 100-meter track. In parallel, the results achieved by a top sprinter were also obtained on the same track. The purpose of this study was to determine the basic running stages, the time and distance limits, and the essential differences between the speed-distance curves for children and top sprinters. As expected, the top sprinters exceeded the boys' performance at all points. Although there were similarities, significant sprinting differences between the two types were noted. The principal differences were in the number og distinctive running stages, the rate of initial acceleration, the position and duration of the maximum speed period, and the speed profile of the final 10 meters sprint may not be the most suitable lenght for this group of boys.
