Jumping is a athletic category in which the athlete takes a small run-up to build in momentum to jump for greater distance, and then jump as far as possible behind the line marked before a soft muddy ditch, where the jump distances are measured.
One can jump up to reach something high, jump over a fence or ditch, or jump down, and one can jump while dancing and as a sport.
