World Masters Athletics 2007 – M40 200 meters Heat 6

12 Heats is a lot of heats when they are spaced 5 minutes apart.

When you have over 81 entrants, 4 qualifying rounds are required by the IAAF. With 89 declared competitors, we had 12 heats where the top 3 places and 4 fastest times (i.e. “3P4T”) advanced to the Quarter-Final round of 40 athletes.
