I want to encourage my son to get into track & field. Seems like a noble sport to get into for high school where he can get healthy, be social, and not be too dangerous. I know zip about it though.
Track and field is a very intense sport
Okay, fair enough. But is there something more specific you can tell me about it? Something more.. knowledgeable?
Track and field requires a heavy amount of skill in running, jumping and throwing
I figured running, obviously, since it sounds pretty self-explanatory in the title. But how exactly does it all work? Where do they do things? How do they compete?
Typically Track and field has running events running in an oval shaped field with obstacles to jump over and a separate area for throwing events
