Define Long Distance: Good luck! To the sprinter, 400 meters is too long! However, it’s generally considered a long distance event if it’s over one mile long. While track meets may offer the 3000, 5000 or 10,000 meter race on the track, there are so many more events available on AND off the road! Can you say Mountain/Ultra/Trail/Cross Country or Bring Back the Mile!?
