What is a furlong?
A furlong is 220 yards, or one eighth of a mile. The name means "furrow long" — the length a team of oxen was expected to plow before stopping for a rest.
It survives mainly in horse racing, where race lengths are still announced in furlongs, and in old land records where fields were laid out in furlongs and acres.
In writing, the furlong is usually shortened to "fur". One furlong is 201.168 meters, and that ratio is what every figure on this page is built from.
