Reply:First off, its Shot Putt. Events include high jump, long jump, triple jump, Pole vault, discus, hammer (not done everywhere), javelin, all your running events from 500m to Mile including the relays (the baton events) and hurdles of varying distances. you can also throw in the marathon I guess
Reply:Shotput, Archery (where you shoot the bow %26amp; arrow), hurdles, i don't know the phrase or name they use but it's where you have to run with a long pole and jump over the stick or pole whatever you call it and land on that big mattress thing, potato sack race, wrestling, 100 yard dash, tag football, sit and reach, pushups, situps, pullups, there are few things in these events but I can't remember all of them. And all schools do all the same things but there are a couple schools that do different things. If I'm not mistaken these field and track events are called "The Iron Man %26amp; Iron Woman."
Reply:Cross country, sprint, hurdles, and ummm...that's all I can think of at the moment.
