Track and field or athletics basically represents a group of sports that take place on a running track and an accompanying field or in indoor arenas. These sports include running, walking, long jump, pole vault, triple jump, discus, shot put, high jump, javelin throw, hammer throw, decathlon, pentathlon, heptathlon and hurdles. The sports are popular with men and women of all ages. It has been an Olympic event for years with the 100 meter dash often being the highlight of the summer games. Many people join track and field clubs to train and utilize their equipment, but even if you want to train on your own, it's a relatively inexpensive group of sports to choose from.
