the distance of Track and Field events varies because there is more than one. Distances in high school track and field meets usually include: 100 meter dash, 200 meter dash, 400 meter (1/4 mile), 800 meter (1/2 mile), 1600 meter (1 mile), and 3200 meter (2 miles). there are also relays (where four people take turns carrying a baton while running, they hand off to each other and the accumulative time of the four teammates is counted). there is the 4x100 meter relay, 4x400 meter relay, 4x800 meter relay. they are longer distances offered in college.
