Field Day Challenge:
Play days, sports days, or field days are occasions hosted by numerous offices and schools where individuals compete in sports, frequently in the hopes of taking home awards or trophies. Though they are often held at the beginning of summer, they are also staged in the autumn or spring seasons, especially in countries where the summer is very harsh. Schools stage many sports days in which children participate in sporting events.
The games that are played in these events can be wide and varied. They can include straightforward sprints and longer races for all age groups, as well as egg and spoon races. Three-legged races are run as well as sack races, wheelbarrow races, and parent-and-child races. Long jumps and high jumps are also held. Additional games are traditionally run in Ireland and in the UK, such as horseshoes.
For this challenge, you have 25 events to read for. Each event has 4 tasks that are repeatable throughout the challenge. There will be no bonus points for completing all tasks or events this time around.
