Because in general you will be more able to become proficient in one sport, than many. But there are multi-sport activities, such as Triathlon, Pentathlon, and Decathlon. It would be less common for these to be offered at a school level.
the prefix "dec" means ten, so i would say that an athlete participates in ten different events.
A decathlon is a multiple event competition. There are four running races as part of the events, so after completing those events you will have run 2110 meters (and have gone over 10 hurdles), less than 1 1/3 miles. There are 4 other events in the decathlon that involved running, as a set up to jump or throw. You get three attempts in each of those events and your distance to run up is your choice (averaging 25-30 meters each time for a long jump, a high jump significantly shorter). Then there are two events that are throws from a circle. The main point is, the decathlon is not about long mileage like a marathon, it is about excellence over a variety of events, or tests. Further, it is difficult to train for all of those events at the same time. In particular, the body type that would be ideal for the Shot Put and the 1500 meters are about as opposite as possible.

If the country was winning they would be there if the country was not winning they would leave in other words, they wouldn’t help anymore, the Americans.
YES! decade, decagon, decathlon, decathlete by the way , if there were no words that started with "deca-", then by definition, "deca-" would not be a prefix...
so you can have a chance of winning
For many people it is not easy to ask a girl out.If you are the one then i understand your feelings ;).It is a difficult task.You need to be calm first then you first occasion to go out and that could your's or her's birthday.The best occasions are when you do something great like winning something or winning a sports match,if you play one.If you already know that you are going to win then in advance tell her that you shall be taking her out after winning or on the birthday.That should work for you.
a poo in a toilet :) vote for me
it would be difficult because he is a big ruler
The overall goal in a decathlon is to accumulate the highest score after competing in the 10 popular track and field events. The events were chosen to challenge a single athlete's fundmental abilities to sprint, throw, jump, and run long distances with an empthasis on the athlete's endurance to do so in competing through the events back-to-back over a two consecutive day competition; spliting the events to 5 events each day.The decathlete, the athlete competing in the decathlon, does not necessarily have to win any of the 10 events in order to win the overall decathlon; just merely accumulate the highest total score at the end of the decathlon.The scoring of each event is based off a standard decathlon scoring table which is based off the world record performance of each event when the scoring table was instituited.You could also say that an athlete's individual goal would to be win every event; there by ensuring they would accumulate the highest total score in the end.
I think That winning Science Fair Can Inspire The Winner To Be a scientist.
