Line graphs can be used to compare the velocities or distances covered by athletes over time during a race. By plotting the velocities against time for each athlete, coaches and analysts can assess their performance, identify patterns, and make strategic adjustments to training or race strategies.

Line graphs assist in analyzing athletes’ performance in a race by plotting their distance covered against time. Trends in the graph reveal acceleration, constant speed, or deceleration during different race segments. Comparing multiple athletes’ graphs enables coaches to identify strengths, weaknesses, pacing strategies, and areas for improvement in training and technique.
