How long is the   race?Individual track races vary in length, from short sprints up to around 10km for older youth endurance events.
What does it look  like?An oval track – sometimes indoors,   sometimes outdoors, sometimes wooden, sometimes concrete, sometimes tarmac, sometimes banked, sometimes not.
