Event Codes¶
We've put together a table of the event codes available in our system. These are used to specify what your event is.
N.B. Not all events are listed as it would be infinite to list every distance possible. Pay particular attention to distance events as the format is repeated, e.g. 60m, 60H, 5k, 5 miles, 20km walk, 2000m steeplechase, relays, etc
Table of Codes¶
| Event | Code | Note |
|---|---|---|
| High Jump | HJ | |
| Pole Vault | PV | |
| Long Jump | LJ | |
| Triple Jump | TJ | |
| Shot Put | SP | |
| Discus | DT | |
| Hammer | HT | |
| Javelin | JT | |
| Other Throw | OT | This is just used as a miscellaneous throw |
| 60m | 60 | Any raw number is assumed to be in metres so 100m = 100. Writing any number will give you that event in metres |
| 60m Hurdles | 60H | Number+H denotes the distance in metres and hurdles so 110H is 100m Hurdles Writing any number+H will give you that event in metres as a hurdles event |
| 2000m Steelechase | 2000SC | Number+SC denotes the distance in metres and steeplechase so 3000SC is 3000m steeplechase Writing any number+SC will give you that event in metres as a steeplechase event |
| 20km Walk | 20KW | Number+KW denotes distance in kilometres (K) and that it is a walk so 50KW is 50 kilometre walk Writing any number+KW will give that event in kilometres as a walking event |
| Decathlon | DEC | |
| Heptathlon | HEP | |
| Pentathlon | PEN | |
| Quadkids | QUAD | |
| Octathlon | OCT | |
| 4X100m Relay | 4X100 | Simply do the number of people in the team X distance. I.e. 12X5000 would be a 12 person relay team doing 5k each |
| Mile | MILE | |
| 5km | 5K | Specify the unit by putting "K" at the end |
| 5 miles | 2M | Specify the unit by putting "M" at the end |
| Marathon | MAR | |
| Half-Marathon | HM | |
| 5 mile X Country | 5MXC | Denote the distance followed by unit (M=Miles,K=km,nothing=metres) followed by "XC" |
| Random event where higher is better, i.e. number of press ups | H1 | Can use H1 to H9 |
| Random event where lower is better, i.e. quickest to complete 100 burpees | L1 | Can use L1 to L9 |
| Events that have a set time rather than a set distance | T30 | The number is in minutes so this example is a Timed 30 minute run. T60 would be an hour |
