Track and Field is an exciting and competitive sport that combines many athletic events. It’s all about speed and strength. Track and Field athletes show their skills in running, jumping, and throwing, whether it’s sprinting down the track, doing hurdles, shot put, doing long jumps, running long distances, or pole vault; something is always happening on the field. It’s a sport that requires training and hard work, and it’s a great way to stay fit and have fun with friends. Track and field events come in different forms and use different strengths; from the 100 meters to longer distances like 3200 meters. Jumping events, like the high jump, need people who can leap far. Throwing events, like shot-put and javelin, require strength and the capacity to throw far. The best part is that track and field is a sport that accommodates athletes of all ages and skill levels. Whether you’re a novice or a pro, there’s always improvement and new personal records you can establish.
