Three throwing event are in the decathlon-Shot PutDiscus ThrowJavelin Throw
When throwing the shot put, the athlete typically releases the shot from near the shoulder or cheek area, with the shot being positioned against the neck or cheek during the glide or spin technique. The shot put must be thrown from within a 7-foot diameter circle, and the throw should propel the shot forward and upward. The distance from the cheek to where the shot lands varies depending on the athlete's strength, technique, and conditions, but the shot is aimed to travel as far as possible within the allowed throwing area.

There are three throwing events in a decathlon:Shot PutDiscus ThrowJavelin Throw**It's important to note that shot put isn't referred to as a throw it is instead called a 'Put'. As if you were 'putting' something up in front of you with a lot of force. So you never throw a shot put, you instead put a shot.
Yes, if the shot put touches or crosses the throwing line during the throw, it is considered a foul. The athlete must ensure that the shot put is released from within the designated throwing area without touching the boundary lines. A foul throw results in no valid distance being recorded for that attempt.
In the men's game the shot clock is 35 seconds and in the women's game the shot clock is 30 seconds.
