Track and Field Word Search
A track and field word search covers the oval and the infield: the starting block, the baton and the hurdles, the steeplechase and its water jump, then the shot put, the javelin, the high jump and the decathlon, with legends like Owens and Bolt.
A standard outdoor track measures 400 meters around its inside lane, and a bell rings when the leader starts the last lap of a distance race. The steeplechase covers 3,000 meters with 28 barriers and seven water jumps, and takes its name from old horse races run from one church steeple to the next. Out in the infield, the men's shot weighs 16 pounds, and the decathlon packs ten events into two days.
Jesse Owens won four gold medals at the 1936 Olympics in Berlin, in the 100 meters, the 200 meters, the long jump and the relay. In 1954 Roger Bannister ran the first mile under four minutes, in 3:59.4 at Oxford. Dick Fosbury won the 1968 Olympic high jump by going over the bar backward and head first, and nearly every high jumper has used his flop since. Usain Bolt set the 100 meter world record of 9.58 seconds in Berlin in 2009.
