This article is about penile erection. For the similar arousal in females, see clitoral erection. For other uses, see Erection (disambiguation). An erection (clinically: penile erection or penile tumescence) is a physiological phenomenon in which the penis becomes firmer, engorged and enlarged.
The obstacles in the menâs steeplechase are 914 millimetres (36.0 inches) high. In the womenâs steeplechase, the obstacles are 762 millimetres high (30.0 inches). The water jump consists of a barrier followed by a pit of water. The landing area for the pit of water is 3.66 metres (12.0 ft) by 0.70 metres (2.3 ft). At its deepest point, the slope goes down to a depth of 700mm (28 inches).
5280 Feet divided by 3 feet/yard = 1760 Yards. 1760 Yards / 25 Yards / length of pool = 70.4 Lengths. 70.4 laps / 2(Down+Back) = 35.2 laps. Since it would be odd to just swim .2 laps at the end I typically swim 36 Laps(Down and Back) to cover 1 mile = 72 Lengths of the pool to cover 5280 Feet. I plan to swim a REAL mile in a lake at scout camp in a few weeks which will be 5280 feet(1760 yards).
