The standing long jump is an athletics event. It was an Olympic event until 1912.

In performing the standing long jump, the jumper stands at a line marked on the ground with his feet slightly apart. The athlete takes off and lands using both feet, swinging his arms and bending his knees to provide forward drive. In Olympic rules, the measurement used was the longest of three tries. The jump must be repeated if the athletes falls back or uses a step at take-off.

Andreea Madalina Raducan was born on the thirtieth of
September, 1983, in Birlad, Romania. She was trained under
Octavien Belu and Mariana Bitang of the Cetate Deva Club in
Romania and began gymnastics at the age of five. She has
several gold and silver medals under her belt from national
and international competitions. Though she is listed as
the official Olympic all-around female champion, the IOC
stripped her of her medal when she tested positive for
pseudophedrine (the active ingredient in many
decongestants) after having taken a cold pill given to her
by the Romanian Olympic Team doctor. Regardless of whether
or not she has the medal, she is a champion - and an
incredible one at that.
