Template talk:Track events

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I took the liberty to remove 300 m from the template - this distance is almost never contested and not listed on IAAF's all time list [1]. Punkmorten 21:07, 4 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] 3000m Steeplechase

This is listed as a middle-distance event in this box, and a long-distance event in the long-distance article. Which should be altered to make it consistent?

[edit] Biathlon

I removed the skiing og shooting from the list. Added on the 35 lb weight throwing event. Mr. Hill (talk) 20:01, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Marathon & Half Marathon

I note that marathon is excluded from the template, presumably because it is a road race, not track race. If so, why include half marathon? If not, why not include marathon?

It appears that marathon and several other long-distance running events were omitted in error when the template was updated recently. I've fixed the problem.
