Track and field is an interesting sport because it is so demanding of a wide variety of skills, often combining running, throwing, jumping and gymnastics. Which events do you think are the most technically demanding?
Here is one suggested ranking, with the most technically demanding as number one to the least at number ten. 1. Pole vault 2. Hammer 3. Javelin 4. Discus 5. High jump 6. Hurdles 7. Shot Put 8. Triple jump 9. Long jump 10. Any sort of running
I am not sure. For me they are all difficult, though some are more interesting than others. Practice can be frustrating, but when I get something right--even if it is just a slight improvement--it is quite satisfying.
