actually thats ture but all the runners have to be very slow thenActually, the answer is indeterminate. On a circular track, if you're in first place and overtake second place, you're still in first place.

The question didn't specify anything about relative speeds. You could also pass someone and not change your relative position, if you're a lap behind the person you overtake.actually thats ture but all the runners have to be very slow then
