Although the athletic and running tracks appear to be identical, there are some differences. Athletics is a sport that has remained popular from the past to the present. The track is also essential in this sport, divided into many sub-branches. The particular area used in sports fields involving professional athletes is called the athletic track. However, there is no such restriction on the running track. Therefore, to explain the differences between the athletic track and the running track, we can list the following:
- While the athletic track is a particular area that includes athletic athletes, the athletic track is a suitable area for everyone to use.
- The athletic track is generally preferred only in extensive sports facilities. On the other hand, running tracks are not only established in sports fields. It can run on scenic or paved tracks such as beaches and forests.
- Athletic track standards are set by the World Athletics Association or the IAAF (International Athletics Federation).
- Athletic tracks are usually set up at the Olympics and major stadiums. Other outdoor running tracks can be set up in parks, forests, beaches and gardens.
- There are professional runners on the track. However, there is no such restriction on the running track.
- SBR and EPDM rubber materials should be used in athletic tracks.
- Therefore, there are differences in use in the two sports areas.
- Athletic track and running tracks also have differences in construction. In other words, there is a difference in the materials used.
- While it is easier to set up a running track, it is difficult to set up an athletic track. Therefore, construction costs vary accordingly.
- There are different sports movements that athletes have to do as well as running on the athletic track while only running on the running track.
