The term 'RACE WITH BATONS' can be summarized as a RELAY race. A RELAY race is a type of running race in which teams of two or more runners pass a baton to each other in order to complete a certain distance. The baton is usually passed from one runner to the next in a designated area, such as a track or a field. RELAY races are popular in track and field events, as well as in other sports such as swimming and cycling.
