Im guessing 10 separate events. From the root word "deka" which is Greek for 10. The decathlon is a ten event competition spread over two days:
First Day: 100 meter dash, long jump, shot put, high jump, 400 meter run
Second Day: 110 meter hurdles, discus, pole vault, javelin, 1500 meter run
10 events
The clue's in the name; there are 10 events.
A decathlon consists of 10 track and field events
A decathlon is always ten events. If you take out the discus throw, then you have nine events.
