the title is very misleading. should say "Track and Field" events. im pretty sure all events are "athletics events"

@tmad14: I think many Europeans refer to "Track and Field" as "Athletics". Based on the spelling of "metre", I'm guessing the quiz maker is not American.

50 km walk: Most. Boring. Event. Ever.
