Athletics, often referred to as track and field, is widely regarded as one of the oldest organised forms of sport in human history. Its roots stretch back thousands of years, evolving from basic physical tasks necessary for survival, such as running, jumping, throwing and walking, into a structured global sporting tradition enjoyed by millions today.

When people think about sports events, they usually picture the action on the field: the matches, the scores, the celebrations. What often goes unnoticed is the broader impact these events have on the communities that host them.
