Claim:
A collapsible portable hurdle kit comprising: a first portable hurdle; and a second portable hurdle, wherein the first portable hurdle and the second portable hurdle each comprise: a base portion integrally formed with a first bow portion and an opposing second bow portion, the first bow portion defining a first end and the second bow portion defining a second end, wherein at a first configuration the base portion and the bow portions form a substantially planar monolithic structure having a longitudinal length; a securing device comprising: a first securing end configured to be operably secured to the first end; and a second securing end configured to be operably secured to the second end to selectively place the portable hurdle in a second configuration; wherein at the second configuration, the securing device causes the first and second ends of the respective bow portions to flex upward in tension and be separated by a first distance that is less than the longitudinal length; and wherein the first and the second portable hurdles are configured to be placed in a stackable arrangement with respect to each other when each are in the first configuration.
