it already is a dash, and we dont need blocks.

Official instructions for starting races 800 metre and longer.
Thus the rules must change to allow a set command.
When you instruct the field "Sweats off" explain the commands they will hear and inform them what is expected of them.
YOUR STARTING COMMANDS WILL BE AS FOLLOWS:
ON YOUR MARKS –PLEASE STEP UP TO THE STARTING LINE AND TAKE YOUR FINAL STARTING POSITION. PLEASE REMAIN MOTIONLESS UNTIL YOU HEAR THE GUN.
FIRE THE GUN –WHEN THE FUN IS FIRED YOU MAY START. IF YOU SHOULD HEAR A SECOND GUN FIRE, PLEASE RETURN TO THE STARTING LINE.
ALTHOUGH NOT A COMMAND, IF AN ASSISTANT STARTER IS USED, LET THE RUNNERS KNOW THAT THEY ARE PRESENT.
