Order of Events

I was asked to post an order of events for traditional track meets. Here it is, but beware, track meets do run slow and they do run fast. So, any event schedule with specific start times on it, those start times could be off by a bit.

Standard Order of Running Events at a Track Meet

Sprint Medley Girls (heats)
4 x 800 Girls (waterfall)
4 x 800 Boys (waterfall)
100 m Hurdles Girls (heats)
110 m Hurdles Boys (heats)
100 m Dash Girls (heats)
100 m Dash Boys (heats)
4 x 200 m Relay Girls (heats)
4 x 200 m Relay Boys (heats)
1600 m Run Girls (waterfall)
1600 m Run Boys (waterfall)
4 x 100 m Relay Girls (heats)
4 x 100 m Relay Boys (heats)
400 m Dash Girls (heats)
400 m Dash Boys (heats)
300 m Hurdles Girls (heats)
300 m Hurdles Boys (heats)
800 m Run Girls (waterfall)
800 m Run Boys (waterfall)
200 m Dash Girls (heats)

3200 m Run Girls (waterfall)
3200 m Run Boys (waterfall)
4 x 400 m Relay Girls (heats)

Track Meet Order of Events

All events are traditionally run females first. There is rarely a hard time schedule that can be followed. A "rolling schedule" is followed, where the clock is essentially ignored and once an event is up, it is run. In other words, be early, be ready, be patient.

Girls Sprint Medley
4 x 800 Relay
Sprint Hurdles
100 Dash
4 x 200 Relay
1600 Run
4 x 100 Relay
400 Dash
300m Hurdles
800 Dash
200 Dash
3200 Run
4 x 400 Relay

The only thing I know about field event scheduling is that they seem to change from meet to meet. I will try and post those schedules on a week-to-week basis.
