I used to participate in Track and Field in school. It was a lot of jumping, running and throwing. Every do it?
No, what are some of the events you can participate in?
Some of the racing events are middle and long distance, race walking & hurdling and sprints. Whomever is the fastest, is the winner!
Can you participate in groups or just individually?
Well, track and field is in the category of road running, race walking and cross country running, but it's basically competing against each other. Keeps you in good shape!
When was track invented?
I'm not really sure, but I do know the reason it has the name of track and field is because of the venue it is usually done in. A stadium that has an oval running track, while it encloses the grassy field. Definitely very specific!
Who invented track?
It began in Greece about 776 BC, it's a simple concept, participants who have the longest jump or throwing distance, win! No complicated rules!
