Definition and characteristics of track events
Because the competition environment varies greatly from place to place, the marathon has only the best results and no Olympic record. In track events, if there are a large number of participants, the preliminary, semi-finals and finals with 8 participants can be held first, and the final result will be the final ranking result. The track race must run counterclockwise (that is, the left hand is close to the inner ring).
The number of passes (or starting position) is determined by drawing lots. The starting device must be used when starting the first stick of lane-divided running and relay running (not allowed in other track events, three starting signals of "in place", "ready" and starting gun are used, and only one password of "in place" is used in some lane-divided running and non-lane running events, and then the starting gun is used. Starting foul 1 time disqualified (disqualified twice in all-around competition).
If you hit someone or prevent others from running in, you will be disqualified. Athletes who should have run in the swimming lane were not forced to run out of the swimming lane directly by others and received assistance (running with others, providing or guiding) during the competition. Those who commit crimes again after being warned shall be disqualified.

Long-distance running events: Long-distance running events include 5000m,10000m, marathon, etc. Moreover, the competition distance is long, which requires the endurance and perseverance of athletes.
Comparison between field and track events
Project form: field events are mainly throwing and jumping, which need to be carried out in the field; Track events are mainly running and need to be carried out on the playground.
Competition distance: the competition distance of field events is relatively fixed, mainly calculated by distance; The distance of track events varies widely, covering sprint, middle and long distance running.
Competition requirements: the field events emphasize the skills and strength of athletes and require athletes to have better throwing and jumping skills; Track events emphasize the speed and endurance of athletes and require athletes to have good sprint, middle or long-distance running ability.
