This initial stage determines the results of the jump. Because if the speed is obtained at the start, it will affect the explosive power when making a jump so that the after repulsion becomes perfect and produces the best jump. The problems in this study were (1) What are the results of the analysis of the starting distance with the results of long jumps in class VII A students of Jombang State Madrasah Tsanawiyah 8 (2) Which starting distance produces the farthest jump in class VII A students of Jombang State Madrasah Tsanawiyah 8? This study used a quantitative approach with percentage descriptive techniques. The instrument used in this research was the kinovea application. The conclusions of this study (1) the results of the initial distance analysis in the long jump had an important role in producing the farthest jump. Because the starting distance will determine the inertia force that will occur causing a person's thrust to produce great power at the time of take off, resulting in the farthest jump, (2) The 30 meter run up distance is the best starting distance compared to the 35 meter and 40 run up distances. This was because the initial distance of 30 meters produces maximum speed, causing a greater force when taking off Keywords: [Analysis, Long Jump run up, Athletics.] INTRODUCTION Sport as an educational medium provides positive direction for physical, mental, social and emotional development and growth in a harmonious and balanced manner in meeting physical and spiritual needs (Syarif, 2019). In formal educational institutions, physical education is provided, one of which is movement and sports education which is contained in physical education and health subjects (Parwata, 2021). The long jump is one of the branches of jumps in athletics. The long jump is done by jumping forward with the support of one of the strongest parts of the leg which aims to reach the distance of the jump as far as possible. The goal and purpose of the long jump is to reach the distance of the jump as far as possible to a landing point or a jump. The jump distance is measured from the closest boundary of the landing point produced by the body part to the takeoff board, which is done in three (3) repetitions and the result taken is the longest jump distance (3) kali pengulangan dan hasil yang di ambil adalah jarak lompatan yang terjauh (Aziz & Yudi, 2019). The long jump is a movement of jumping forward and upward in an effort to bring the body's weight as long as possible in the air (floating in the air) which is done quickly and by pushing off on two legs to reach the farthest distance (Nurfauzan, 2018). The four elements of the long jump movement are run up, repulsion, flying in the air and landing. Of course, so that the results of the jump get maximum results, each stage of the movement must be
