The original Olympic games in ancient Greece featured a combination of athletics and combat events. The main events included foot races of different distances, such as the stadion and diaulos, as well as the pentathlon, which included running, jumping, throwing the discus, throwing the javelin, and Wrestling. There were also combat events such as boxing, pankration (a martial art), and the hoplite race, where athletes ran in full armor.
