2. type
2.1. athletics cross country
It is literally an event that runs outdoors, such as fields and hills. In terms of getting out of the field, it is similar to a marathon, but crucially, a marathon is run along the road, whereas cross country is an event that runs in a field. It is not an official Olympic event, but it is an event recognized by the International Association of Athletics Federations , and world competitions are also being held.
Although it is not an official Olympic track and field event, cross-country racing is held in the Olympics, as the track and field of the modern pentathlon falls under cross-country. Currently, this cross-country and shooting are combined to form something similar to the biathlon of the Winter Olympics .

3. digression
- In New Zealand , there is a culture of running cross-country once a year regardless of elementary, middle, or high school. It varies depending on the school and year, but it is usually held at the end of the third semester. Additionally, in New Zealand schools, students are divided into “teams” based on address or classroom, and on cross-country day, there is a lot of nervousness between teams. It varies depending on the situation, school, and even grade, but is usually held on the school playground or in a nearby park.[1]
[1] New Zealand middle schools and high schools often share playgrounds, and when middle school students practice or on cross country day, high school students sit on the grass and cheer. But it can be a little annoying because you “sit down” and cheer.
